This place is not fancy by modern standards but our family had a blast (including 5&6yo)! All our dinosaur questions were answered and we got to find tracks in the quarry. Shop had an very good selection of rocks that were reasonably priced. We spent little less than an hour there but my kids have been talking about our visit and findings non-stop for a while now!
See real dino tracks! And lots of wonderful fossils and stones being sold in the gift shop.
An interesting, funky, little place, well worth the visit, if you take the time to talk with Kornell. You can walk through the quarry for just a couple of bucks. But, first ask Kornell to show you how to spot dinosaur tracks. Also ask him about the history of the place and his family's involvement with the Moody family (the first to find dinosaur tracks). Also, this is THE PLACE to buy dinosaur tracks. If you can't afford a full track, look for the toes that are available for $5 or $10.
Classic rock shop and roadside Americana museum. $5 entrance fee to view the track site and quarry, which is reasonable and worth it. However you are not allowed to just hunt for fossils there, which is not clearly understood by some tough critics as evidenced by other reviewers. The owner makes a living off of intact examples and works very hard to remove them from the quarry.
We purchased three large tracks from Nash’s and they arrived a few days later in superb condition. We use them to teach Creation Science. I would definitely purchase ALL of my tracks from here.
