Family Fun

Fun at Ranch Okoboji is family fun...activities that the entire family can enjoy!

  • Tyotee's Wild Mining Adventure

Try mining for rare gemstones, fossils and arrowheads...braving the cave darkness. Find your way wearing a miner's headlamp, and search for the hidden treasures. You're likely to discover something "precious" by looking in the cracks and crevices of the cave...or by just digging around the surface of the cave. Then, try panning for gemstones in our sluice. Kids are guaranteed to discover some wonderful keepsakes.
