Since 1932, tours of this unique cave structure on the Guadalupe River have been given to the public. The cave is well-lit and easily navigated, and has large caverns and natural pools, including a 90-foot underground waterfall. The pool levels fluctuate with rainfall and may be dry during periods of drought. One-hour guided tours are offered every thirty minutes. Although you cannot swim in the underground pools, the resort has a man-made swimming pool. It also has a dance pavilion and camping facilities.
