This is without a doubt the best gem/rock/fossil shop I’ve set foot in. Their offerings are extensive, unique and extremely beautiful (and the prices are really fair). The staff is lovely, professional and super passionate about their product. I think I stopped in about 3 or 4 times over the course of my week in West Yellowstone. I highly recommend stopping in, even just to admire their collection. Check out their meteorite/tektite counter, the pieces are beautiful!!

This store is for all your rock lovers. The store carries a wide range of rocks and fossiles from the region. There is also a good selection of potery and other collectibles for those looking for something other than a t-shirt.The owners are great and were fun to talk to about West Yellowstone.

Went in two days in a row and I found the service so friendly. Such a beautiful collection of rocks, stone, fossils and jewelry. The lovely women who served me (not sure of her name but she has short hair, and was amazing!) Was so knowledgeable and talked to me all about the fossil ring that I ended up buying. Thank you for your help! A must go to for anyone visiting West Yellowstone

Looking for Montana Sapphires? Go here. They also have Montana Yogo Sapphires. Many beautiful things, including wonderful selection of beautiful jewelry and gemstones. The staff is wonderful in helping you find what you want.

West Yellowstone's rock shop. There is fossils and rocks at this location. Lots of variety and great prices. If in the area again I will definitely stop by to check out.

This store is adorable!! There is soooo much to look at. It's definitely a fun store to go into. The lady who was working was extremely nice, and super knowledgeable!! The vibe here is really good!! So happy we stopped in and got some things before heading out! If you want something different to take home, that isn't found at every other shop down the street. Come here!!

A girl behind the counter was extremely sweet, very helpful had no problem opening anything if we needed a look. We really enjoyed this store, there is so much to look at it takes quite a few laps to even see everything, I still don't think we saw everything haha. If you are a collector this is the place to be!

A wonderful owner! I noticed an issue with a rock plate after I got home that I bought during a vacation. I called the store and sent pictures. The owner handled the situation like a wonderful human being and awesome business person. Great customer service!

Beautiful store. They went out of their way and helped me get a particular necklace for my wife and were very kind. They joked I'd have to start paying rent if I had continued to come in! lol Love this place. It is our favorite shop to go to when we are in town.

A top-flight rock shop! Definitely the best in the area (and probably hundred+ miles in any direction). Excellent specimens, covering all price levels and interests, from kids to casual collectors to dedicated rockhounds. Nothing fake or artificially colored like you find in other nearby souvenir shops that happen to sell rocks along with t-shirts and other knickkacks. These people know what they sell and are unbelievably pleasant about it. We stopped by twice, with different people behind the counter, and everybody was always fantastic.Note: the opening time in the morning can vary a bit from what is "officially" listed here (9:30am at time of review)

Amazing crystals! Jennifer was a huge help and very patient with what we were looking for! Cindy from Yellowstone Park told us about it.

We stopped in here on a whim before heading to the airport to fly home, and I was amazed at the selection in such a small shop. Lots of locally and internationally sourced minerals, fossils, pottery, and jewelry (with a large Native-created selection) with prices for all budgets. The staff were incredibly friendly, and helpful when deciding on a piece of jewelry for my wife.When we come back to Yellowstone in the future, I will definitely be back here again!

Truly the most helpful and kind experience I’ve ever had in a store. Incredibly broad selection of rocks, jewelry and fossils! Looked like a beautiful gallery but had prices for all budgets. The owner, Angela, was incredibly patient, friendly, and knowledgeable! She took her time to answer all questions. We will definitely be back.

If you're looking for a souvenir that isn't a shirt, water bottle or fancy knife, this is the place to go. I bought a Bison Horn here and it's really really cool.

Amazing place! She sells some of the most incredible rock and fossil specimens; the jewelry is absolutely gorgeous! Every time you go in, whoever is working, you are greeted so warmly. I learn something new every time I visit! Best store ever!

My husband & I went to this store today and were helped by the owner Angela. What a lovely lady! We had great conversation with her as she told us about different rocks & fossils in the store, and about different excavations she had been on. She was very patient while I made up my mind about various things. I can't wait to go back!

The neatest gift shop around. Here you will find fossils of dinosaurs, ancient sea life, crystals, rocks of all kinds, gems, beads and jewelry making materials, and yes very fine, beautiful jewelry. You can even find meteorites here! I highly recommend visiting this one of a kind unique shop🎁

We stopped by on July 26th on our way into Yellowstone, it is an amazing store, so for that I would give it 5 stars, however the man behind the counter was rude and condescending to the customers that walked through the door. If I were the owner, he would not be the first person my customers would encounter. No social skills whatsoever.

Chanced upon the store and was delightfully surprised to find a wide selection of crystals, stones and fossils. Prices are very reasonable compared to other places as well, a great place to pop in if you’re into these items!

The staff at this store hate tourists, or at least it seems like that. I have never seen staff members be so unbelievably rude to people simply wanting to look at items, including jewelry in display cases that are locked and therefore not readily accessible without assistance. Frankly, my entire family left the store due to the attitude of the staff members. Do not go to this store unless you want to be treated badly.
