We stayed an hour longer than we planned with our infant daughter. We can't wait until she is a little older so we can return to play board games and old school arcade games like Mortal Kombat in their cozy game room. Dani even wrapped our Christmas presents for free. If you are in the area, bring the kids, your inner child, or both! You will be welcomed :)

Such a quaint and cute book store in Luray! There were an incredible amount of books, and somehow…read morethey were all organized neatly. Most of the books are paperback and more retro. There weren't as many modern books. Still housed a great selection! Prices were very fair. My partner and I found a mystery book to read together for a total of $9. Most of the books I saw were about $3 - $7. Honestly a steal! The owners seemed nice! We didn't speak too much with them, but while checking out, we had a small laugh. Definitely a nice spot to check out if you are at Luray!

I came to luray for my anniversary with my husband, and I have to say that visiting this bookstore…read morewas my favorite part of the trip. You can tell that the owner takes great pride in his store, and neatly and clearly organizes everything by genre and author's last name. There are two floors of books, and books are also organized by hard cover and paperback. I found a few books that I've been looking for and I got them at a very good price. It's been almost a month since we have visited this wonderfully owlrific bookstore and my husband still talks about it with a smile. There is just something about this place that I will always remember and cherish.

There are only so many places remaining in this great country where you can get truly amazing books…read morefor 25 cents. The Rappahannock County Public Library Book Barn is one of them. Honestly, these people could sell their books on Amazon for a killing. That this place exists and sells for the prices they do is truly a public service to the surrounding community and passers through, the kind who stop at little book stores and are open to delight. A lot of used book stores suffer from what I call the Trash Problem: too many romance novels, too many really really old books that no one cares about or wants to read anymore. Somehow, the Book Barn has circumvented this problem. There are incredible books here, at wonderful prices. The classics (books you should buy when you need to read them for school), huge picture books (that you could buy to cut up for art projects), and even new, popular books -- the ones you didn't read right when they came out, but hey, for a coupla dimes and a nickel, it couldn't hurt to have it sitting around the house, could it? There are treasures here. Many of you here may be horrified at my suggestion that there are trashy books, or books that you should cut up. Well, there are. And there are some of those here, and you will literally not find cheaper printed material, whatever your ultimate machinations for it may be. I mean, personally I hope you find something here to read. I hope you buy something here, learn new things, redonate your books to people who also want to read them and love them. The Book Barn is the soul of book love.

It had a short passageway to walk with toys put on display between glass barriers. There were plenty of toys from past years. They were cool to see. As I walked thru the place, I couldn't bear the strong smell inside. There was a strong antique shop like odor. The floor was also covered with old tiles. Compared to the several other tourist spots in the vicinity, this one seemed the most underwhelming one.

The mining sluices are part of the Heritage Museum. It was really cool with bits of information about the history of the whole Luray area, from pre-historic, to the pre-colonial, to today. Sadly, we showed up about 10 minutes until close, so they encouraged us to move towards the mining sluices and we were able to operate the sluices after the shop and museum closed. So we bought our bags (for a reasonable price) and got to sluicing! A small bag per child was perfect. The kids got through everything in 5 minutes and then had their pretty clean gems to take home. A perfect amount of time for the kids and little prizes to take home. Definitely don't sleep on coming here!

I've seen gem sluices other places, like Myrtle Beach, but never understood the appeal. We were traveling with a 7-year-old this time and his mom really wanted him to experience it. I remained unconvinced until his father started to help him pour the sand into the sieve and the geodes started to appear. Jeremy has recently embraced his love of amethyst and had just bought a geode at the gift shop at the caverns for some crazy amount of money ($65). Our 7-year-old friend came away with one on his first batch, which was nowhere near what Jeremy had spent. Lesson learned, I'm doing the gem mining first, if Jeremy ever starts talking about expanding his rock collection. Our friend also came away with a variety of other gemstones and some sharks teeth. In his second batch of sand, he got another amethyst and the most gorgeous white quartz geode I have ever seen. It was such a fun experience. NOW I understand the appeal. Would recommend.
