Crystal Grottoes Caverns


For a crystal lover like me this was my version of candyland! The Crystal Grottoes Caverns of Maryland has been around since the 1920's which makes it even. More appealing to the vintage lover in me. I had one of my best friends in the world coming to see me last week so I wanted to do some unique things that she couldn't find in Chicago where she lives.


Every time I make the trek from my house to Hobby Lobby I always see the sign for this place over on the exit ramp but I have never had a full day to dedicate to something like this so I figured this was the perfect time! Full disclosure I felt a tad claustrophobic when we first walked the downward stair into the cave. The temp drops down to 55 degrees so if you visit be sure to wear pants and bring a jacket. One I got over being freaked out that I was going to be stick down there with these crystals forever (which would that really be so bad?) it was a truly cool experience. Apparently they even do weddings in the larger spaces of the Grotto. I mean the idea of getting married around all that good crystal energy is pretty sweet but I think I'll keep my Vintage Romance Inspired wedding LOL.


But seriously this would be the perfect Mommy and Me Trip for your older kiddos or just a cool thing to do in the Winter Months! Plus is only $23 a person for adults. Keep an eye out for more blog posts later this week about all the cool DMVstuff we crammed into 72 hours!
