    We visited the cave and museum last month. I collect Junior Ranger badges and they gave me one of theirs. I’m a 73 yr old Junior Ranger. 😅 We had Chris as our guide. He pointed out were he lived when we were in the dome room. 😊 You seemed winded as we were going back up the stairs as we were. Chris, our guide, thoughtfully went at our pace and didn’t rush us.

    A thought I had was... There are a lot of people who do UA-cam videos traveling Route 66. One of the excellent North South trips is on Highway 89 where you go through Yellowstone Park & The Grand Canyon. There is also a motel that lets you sleep in a Caboose on that journey.

    We just spent last week in the area. We went to Hidden River Cave and the museum. Loved it, especially since our dog got to come too! We ate Bucky Bee’s too and thought it was delicious! So many great things to see and do in that area. We drove by the Wigwam Village. Loved watching your video and getting to see inside. We usually camp, but that would be a neat place to stay.

    Horse Cave is my hometown. At the beginning of the video where he's talking about the American Cave Museum, he's standing in front of a building that was known as Ben Franklin in the 1970's and 1980's. I actually lived in one of the apartments above that store from 1987 - 1988.. To bad you can't travel back in time to the 80's, there was more to look at then.

    You should definitely stop in Bowling Green and tour Lost River Cave. I'm not sure if they'll be doing the boat tours through it with the rain we've had the past 2 days, but's worth a shot. It's an amazing spot. There was a nightclub in the cave back in the 30s-50s, then it was abandoned and, much like this cave, became a dumping ground. In the late 80s/early 90s, I was a student at WKU, and they had not started the reclamation project yet, but we would sneak down there. Then they reopened it and acquired additional land. There are trails and a butterfly house. Cool fact: Even though the boat tour doesn't go that far, the cave goes under Bowling Green all the way to the WKU campus. Braver students than me have traversed it. Maybe you could visit WKU and find the white squirrels and visit the Corvette plant too?

    You might be able to use a gopro for caves. Also some caves are not touristy with a specific mostly assessable route and require specific gear. I've done Luray Caverns twice, but they also have quite a few museums there too so that's a place you could dedicate a whole day to

  • @lissachocolate

    Ooo, yes, do a couple of caves! Wigwam Village looks great, and they look bigger inside, I like how you told about it smelling nice, and showed everything inside. I am glad they have owners who are taking care of them, gosh, built in 1937! I would like to stay here. That cave museum was cool! And that restaurant’s food looked yummy.

    Wigwams were an Eastern tribal structure that was more permanent. Coated in clay, like an Adobe. The plains tribes were nomadic, so they used the teepees for easy take-down and carry to their next location.

    I havent stayed in WW villiage for almost 20 years. It is looking much nicer, though it was pretty tidy then, just old.
    The room waa cramped with my wife and 6 yo daughter, but fun for one evening. I don't think they were originally built with bathrooms, just sinks. There was a bathhouse in the quad...i don't see it in your video so they must have removed it. Without the toilet and shower, the room must have seemed bigger.
    Even in the early 2000s, the place was always filled. In the late 90s we couldn't get a cottage, so we went down the hwy to the Horse Cave Motel you showed.
    The next door room was rented by a family playing bluegrass instruments easily heard through the walls. We applauded once and they got suddenly quiet. Reminded me of the Darling Family on Andy Griffith in their first episode.

In the Smokehole WV area, there's log cabins and the log motel. Reservations are strongly recommended to stay at the cabins and the hotel. The state of WV is outdoors mecca. I'm a lifelong resident of Weirton WV.
