Stopped by for a visit enroute to Florida.... by pamela_rainsong

The whole trip was quite an adventure.

About the cave…. It was awesome and the bat show was too.

Does anyone else think that the bat poop smells like grits?! Haha. I went when I was 12 and that is the smell that comes to mind when I think about the caverns. I loved seeing the bats and the stalagmites/stalactites. I hope to go back as an adult to truly savor the beauty of the caves.

Pack a tripod for your camera; then set your camera to NIGHT mode and capture the MOST amazing photos of these amazing caverns.

Also, go off season. I don’t care if it’s 40 below outside, inside the caverns it is always the same temp. Then you can enjoy the quiet of the caverns and take pics at your liesure.

Very nice place. We recommend particularly the tour that goes to the four rooms (King’s Palace, Queen’s Chamber, Pappoose, Green Lake Room?). The Big Room, Elevator, and Natural Entrance are all great for kids.
