Crater Rock Museum houses the finest displays of rocks, minerals and gems on the West Coast. Exhibits include a collection of world-class minerals, collection of petrified woods, fossils, Native American artifacts, and much more! The museum gift shop is filled with the works of local artists from the Roxy Ann Gem & Mineral Society as well as rocks and mineral specimens for sale from around the world. The museum started out as a humble "shack" where locals could visit and share "rock hounding" stories. It's grown a lot since then. The original 5,400 square foot museum is now more than 12,000 square feet, with community meeting rooms, a larger gift shop, workshop, and exhibit areas. We now have a rock sluice in our rock-yard for kids (and grown-up kids) to use! The museum is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 am to 4 pm. Call for admission fees. The second Saturday of the month is Kids Day. Guided tours are available by appointment.
