Hendersonville Gem Mine: Complete Guide

is located in Hendersonville, North Carolina. Named not only the #1 gem mine in North Carolina, it has also been voted #22 of things to do in the USA. Have you always wanted to find gems? This is where you come to find some awesome treasures. This is a great place to make some family memories. You will be wanting to come back year after year. Guaranteed buckets starting out at $15.99 and going higher. They use to have a $20,000 world record bucket. Although it is no longer there they do still have a wall of the bucket standing to honor the record. They also match or even double competitors coupons and they even buy you a coke! Sounds perfect to me!
