Historic Cave Tour

Overview

See the only remaining restored Gangster Era site on this historic tour of extensive caves carved into the hillside in long-abandoned mining ventures in the 1800s. Later it was a mushroom farm, and it was then developed into a restaurant casino and gangsters' hotspot during the 1930s prohibition era. Newspapers reported an unsolved gangland murder at the casino. Tour guides point out the bullet holes. Some believe the caves are haunted by the murdered mobsters whose bodies were never found. The original bar from the 30s has been fully restored - it was a then-record at 60 feet long.

Though this tour is appropriate for all ages, we recommend ages 5 and up, due to shorter attention spans and restlessness.

I was not impressed with the tour. The tour guide did a great job, but the actual space was underwhelming. I didn't think the tour or the stories were worth the money. I would not recommend this tour.

Interesting prohibition thru current day history. Super engaging and passionate tour guide! Caves do run cold, so bring jackets/layers!
