zane shawnee caverns印象

they are back a dirt road that looked a little intimidating in the ice and snow but we did not slip once, not even on the hill by the gift shop. it is owned and staffed by members of the shawnee nation and includes a multi-cultural native american museum for a small additional fee. i took my 5 & 6 year old grands and we all enjoyed everything about it (i am a bit past middle age). it is smaller and more primitive than ohio caverns but that is part of its charm! we wore sturdy footwear and they provided us with flashlights. a unusual feature of these caverns are the cave pearls which i've not seen in any of the other caves i've visited. the gift shop is small but unique in its offering of native american items. the only downside was that someone was smoking inside.

I have been there many times, and its worth the visit, learn history of the Shawnee Indians and their past. They have been doing a lot of work on the grounds, and the Pow Wows are something to see, as well as the Caverns, gift shop is now being remodeled. you have to rember this is not government owned and it is run by the Shawnee. So take a trip back in the past. The people there are very friendly with rustic camping and cabins... Enjoy

The gift shop was kind of bare and needed a little fixing up. Our tour, though was fairly interesting. Our guide, Levi, was very knowledgable and made the tour a great experience. I brought along my little sister (10) and she had a great time. A lot of history in the tour and some interesting formations. Nothing too large, but interesting nonetheless. Very close to the Ohio Caverns, the largest in the state. I would suggest you take a visit.

the cave tour is one of a kind..best in ohio for sure. the villages and hiking great exercise. the venue is perfect for outdoor events. have been for concerts, pow wows etc. and the camping is inexpencive and peaceful

My husband and I visited Zane Shawnee Caverns after visiting Ohio Caverns since we were already in the area. Unfortunately, the surrounding land and gift shop is not well that well maintained. I've been to plenty of caves were I'd let that pass if the cave itself or the tour was worth it, but unfortunately it wasn't. We went in to the gift shop and paid for our tour. 3 adults were sitting in the gift shop talking (one was in a wheelchair and elderly so obviously he couldn't give the tour) but they called up a teenage boy to give the tour. When he came in, he asked if he could let his younger sister do it. Our tour guide was a young teenage girl who was nice but nervous. I felt bad for her honestly. She tried her best and I tipped her because none of the circumstances were her fault - she was a good kid. The cave itself is nothing much to see. It has a few nests of cave pearls (only one is really nice and that's at the beginning of the cave) and some soda straws. It's like a long crack. Not much other than that.

The drive up is a bit strange, but the experience is one o a kind. Took me back to the days when we were kids and explored just about anything. Take your own flashlight and wear full shoes. Loved the tight spaces and the tall ceilings. Really close to Ohio caverns but a whole different experience.

After the long drive down the gravel road, we found the "gift shop" to be closed. When the staff finally showed, they weren't really very welcoming, to say the least. In the end, we opted not to take the cave tour. I agree with Cnstrz_1, this was a totally different experience than Ohio Caverns which is pretty much designed for the tourist. I would say that this site is more for the intrepid explorer than two middle-aged women just looking for something to do for the morning.
