Testimonials
Trusted by Homeschool Families Across the Southeast
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“We had over 40 family members from ages 3 to 78, and this was the first reunion where EVERYONE had something to do. The pavilion gave us a place to gather, and the kids absolutely loved the attractions. It made planning so easy.”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“I was in charge of planning and was honestly stressed… but this was the easiest reunion we’ve ever done. Everything was in one place, and everyone kept thanking me.”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“We’ve rotated reunion locations for years, and this was hands-down the easiest and most enjoyable one we’ve ever planned. The pavilion gave us a perfect home base, the cave tour brought everyone together, and the kids stayed busy the entire time. What surprised me most was how much the adults enjoyed it too—we actually got to relax and visit instead of constantly coordinating. We’re already talking about coming back.”
This Is Where Your Family Makes the Memories
Not everyone will remember the food.
Not everyone will remember the schedule.
But they’ll remember:

How long does the cave tour last?
Your guided caverns tour lasts nearly one hour.
What should I wear inside Majestic Caverns?
The temperature inside the cave is 60°F year-round. In the summer, it will be refreshingly cool, and in the winter it will be a comfortable warmer temperature. Because the entrance to our cave is a steep ramped tunnel we recommend wearing shoes with traction on the bottom, although there is a handrail for steadying yourself if your shoes are smooth on bottom.
Is Parking Free?
Yes, all parking is free!
Are strollers or baby back-packs allowed inside the cave?
Yes, they are. Our cave has a tunnel, making it accessible for you and your young ones.
What should I NOT bring to the park?
The following items are prohibited:
- Alcohol or drugs
- Magic Markers, spray paint, and aerosol cans
- Knives or chains
- Weapons
- Chemical weapons, including mace or pepper spray
- Fireworks
- Cigarettes, e-cigarettes, cigars or chewing tobacco. Majestic Caverns is a tobacco free environment
- Bicycles and similar items are not allowed inside the park for the safety of all of our guests
- Flyers or handouts
- Majestic Caverns reserves the right to prohibit anything that management decides may pose safety concerns for guests or the environment of our historical live Caverns.
What is NOT allowed inside the Caverns?
The following items are prohibited:
- Outside food or drink are not allowed inside of the caverns (these items often have acidic or carbonated properties which erode the live formations inside our Caverns)
- Cigarettes, cigars or chewing tobacco. Majestic Caverns is a tobacco free environment
- Chewing gum
- Majestic Caverns reserves the right to prohibit additional items that may pose safety concerns for either the live Caverns or other guests. If you have an unlisted item you would like to bring into the cave that is not listed as approved, please contact us to request approval in advance and recognize that if approval is not given, the item may not be allowed into the caverns.
Is Majestic Caverns handicap accessible?
We are handicap accessible throught the Healing All Cathedral Room, which is the first room within our caverns and is accessible through a ramp. There is a passageway that narrows as our guests go towards our back room that would require someone to be able to walk through the back area while their wheelchair is folded in order to navigate through that narrow passageway. If the handicap guest is capable of walking a short distance that is supplied with a railing while the wheelchair is folded and brought through, our handicap guests will be able to see the entirety of the tour. If our guest is not capable of entering in the back of the cave, we have discount tours that still allow the guest to enjoy the Healing All Cathedral room within the caverns. Due to the natural environment of the cave, some areas had to be steeply ramped and will require an additional helper to navigate. Warning: For cave visitors in a wheelchair, it is required that you bring a capable assistant to help you with navigating the steep portions of the cave.
Are pets allowed at Majestic Caverns?
Yes, pets are allowed in the park as long as they remain on a leash. Inside the cave we only allow pets if you are capable of holding them throughout the tour. People who bring their pets are responsible for cleaning up their pet's waste. People with pets also will be held responsible for any damage their pet creates. Because of the indoor-outdoors nature of a cave, we cannot have any animals using the restroom inside the caverns, so they must be small enough to be held through the entirety of the tour.
Is there food on the premises?
Yes, we are proud to serve a variety of delicious and hormone free foods at our <a href="cave-cafe">Cave Cafe</a> in the gift shop. Be sure to try our award winning home-made fudge!
Does it rain inside the cave?
It does not rain inside the cave. Although, because this cave is still growing you may experience getting dripped on occasionally. We like to call these occasional drips "cave kisses.
Is there camping nearby?
Yes, we have a campground on the property.
Is Majestic Caverns a state or national park?
No, we are a privately owned park that has stayed in the same family for over 100 years.
Are outside sound systems allowed?
Please note that outside music systems are prohibited to maintain a peaceful atmosphere for all guests. Thank you for your cooperation.
