The restaurant and curio shop are located in the Caverns building, a mile up the road from the motel and Route 66 turn-off.

Grab a bag of treasure filled sand and slice it through our panning area… you’ll be amazed by your good fortune.

Kathy says panning should be around $15? Not sure.

Get in early and take the day. One end to the other. Could have used 2 days to do more of the village, but we were walked out and it was so HOT. We used buses mostly. Food at cafeteria was terrible. Wished we had researched food places at the park better. Hermit's was best place in the park.
