I've been to a lot of caves across the USA, but this one is different. You literally drive up a beautiful mountain road to get there. It is lush and green. You will see the adorable lodge across from the cave entrance. I highly recommend staying there for a lovely, quaint experience. The cave has a lot of stairs and...

This place was awesome! A hidden gem!! Joe Alexander was our guide and I would give him a 5 1/2 out of 5 - phenomenal! The sites are amazing and it was beautiful. Highly recommend. Do the hike up instead of down to the visitor center after. Well worth the view.

The drive up was beautiful, the tour of the caves well worth the money spent, not too difficult but I felt like I got a little work-out. The guide was very informative and fun to listen to. The restaurant afterward was terrific. They had a great wine list, the food was a mix of tried and true and original. I...

I have been to caves around the world, and these are very unique. The tours are reasonable priced, the guides are very knowledgeable and enteratining, and there is a nice little interpretive center/gift shop. If you go, stay at the Oregon Caves Chateau !!!

Awesome time, beautiful well preserved caves. Great tour, the guide was funny and informative. The best part was the live music being played down in the caves!

Wasn't planing on stopping but I'm so glad I did! Got there just in time for the last tour I was the only one! Got a private tour with a great park ranger named Michelle!! She was a geologist and knew so much about the cave formation. And there's such a great history to the discovery of this cave! Also,...

a great place to head to on a hot southern oregon day...an approximate 90 minute cave tour is offered at regular intervals ; there are marked trails at the monument for day hikers ; THE CHATEAU AT THE OREGON CAVES offers a scenic mountain setting with rustic rooms; A DINER AND SODA FOUNTAIN IS A GREAT STOP

We stopped by here in March to see the caves. Actually, we went by in mid-March but the caves were not open so we came back from Grants Pass at the end of March to visit them again. So check the schedule if you come in the spring - this year they opened on March 23rd. The caves are really...

Cool form the heat of the day. Damp and dark is the cave. So enjoy the obis when the lights are out. Stairs and low head bangers. So watch head and feet when going through the caves
