Sounds like a great place to plan my vacation. I will be bringing the kids looking forward to see you in June 2013.

We saw the mine on the internet and made our vacation plans to come here. It was great! It was so quiet and beautiful. Everyone was so nice there at the mine. We found a bunch of opals. Jake was very helpful and Julie was great. They are very friendly and always smiling. We are very happy and will definately return. On our stay there, we had this awesome cat hang out with us.

We went up there in Mid July of this year, with victorias parents. We found several opals, and one very nice limb cast. The people that run the mine were friendly and courteous. I cant wait to go again. I also wanted to mention just how quiet it is out there. Its like the quietest place i have ever been. Very relaxing, suprisingly I found the digging relaxing too. If you like rocks or just the thrill of the hunt, this is a must do trip.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and experience at the Royal Peacock Opal Mine. We met Harry, Julie and Jake. Jake was instrumental in teaching us the mining methods and what to look for. It was our good fortune to find several opals, one weighing in at 96 grams. My wife found the most opals. I found the one large one with just five minutes till closing. I've told all my friends on Face book and many would like to come and experience this first hand. For me, I can't wait to return and do it all over again. Sincerely, Paul & Brenda Lofton, Tampa, Florida.

Lori and I spent a day at the mine and had a blast! Did not find anything of "size" but found some cool specimens. The great part was witnessing the couple next to us finding a very nice specimen quoted as being worth well over $5000, maybe up to $15000. Very very beautiful.

Took my dad to the royal peacock opal mines last week. It was a blast but went by quickly. Swinging the pick wore me out.. got some nice opalized stems and a really nice piece of fire... wishin we got more...(they ARE in the banks!!!) maybe next time

Thank you Julie and Mark and Kevin... i think that was your name for being very friendly and hospitable. took about 7 hours taking I-80 to winnemuca then going northwest... then we stayed on 140 leaving into NE Oregon then south through California..heading back another route... Really nice country side... Probably not possible in the winter times. Taker easy there. -Jon and Dan Sutter

We spent a day there on the 19th of sept 2011 and came home with some nice opalized wood specimens and a few nice fire opals as well. Not to bad for our first time. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Look forward to going back in 2012 with some friends that are now interested. Good thing too because getting these little buggers is hard work
