So an interesting place. Very family friendly. Our 5 year old loved the checklist treasure hunt and getting to take a rock home. Staff were so helpful and mid century home was amazing facility for this collection.

Very well-organized private museum, emphasizing Oregon rocks, minerals, and fossils. LOTS of beautiful petrified wood slabs ! Also mineral crystals from the U.S. and elsewhere. Gift shop also.
Allow 60 to 90 minutes to see all the rooms,
It's not open every day, so check out the website for days & hours.

When we first pulled up, I thought, "what a waste." It just looked like a house with a small building to the side of it.

But, when we went in and paid, we walked into the side building I was amazed.

There were hundreds of beautiful specimens of rocks, minerals, and things of all kinds.

They even had a collection of gold specimens that was fun to see.

I've been to lots of mineral exhibits but the Rice family collected a beautiful collection, better than many large museums.

It is way out in the country. The museum used to be the home of the Rice family and then it was converted into a museum.

$10 for seniors, $12 for adults, $8 for students.

There are also things for the kids to do and try. The kids had fun.
There is a gift shop where you can buy small rocks and minerals that was also fun for the kids.

Definitely worth the drive and the cost.

This place is for people of all ages. My sister, Mother and I went to see the wonders this Museum holds. Rocks, gems and precious stones from all over the State of Oregon, as well as the world. The room where the rocks glow in The dark are especially awesome!

This is a (forgive the pun) a gem of a place, with a lot of very interesting rocks and fossils and well-informed docents. They are extremely welcoming to school groups, and do a great job with a very interesting and well-paced tour.

There is no way to describe this place in a way that would make it sound as truly amazing as it is. The place is room after room of wonder and your imagination can not help but go into overdrive. I highly recommend this for all ages.

We gave this annual pass to our great grandchildren and the family is very happy to take "field trips" to the various places the annual pass covers, the zoo, and other museums. Worth every penny for a thoughtful gift.

We have been here several times. The Easter egg hunt is great for kids and adults alike as everyone gets a geodesic. The museum has a lot of unique and interesting displays

Spent several hours here while in town for a soccer tournament. We lucked out and it was their summer festival. The museum itself is truly a gem and the building it's housed in is so interesting. The grounds were fun to explore and there were fun children activities like panning for gold and a scavenger hunt. My 12 year old son said he would have liked to stay longer...Always a good sign in my book

We absolutely loved visiting the Rice museum of rocks and minerals. The guide who did a small tour of the fossils room was so nice and knowledgeable.
The different rooms were impressive and I loved the fact that we were in the actual home of the Rice family. There were many very impressive rocks and minerals on display. I spent a good bit of time outside in the rockpile with my son, who got to pick a rock to take home (all kids do). There's plenty on display to see outside as well.
My son got fed up at some point, but I'm definitely planning to go back again on my own at some point.
