cosmos of the black hills

This is def. a place for the kids. They make it very fun and interactive! Obviously adults understand, but it is def a mystery to kids. They have done a great update since I was there last. The gift shop is very nice and the kids also enjoyed cracking the geode!

This is a place that is so cool to see. The original house is still used and they have added a 2nd house to accomidate the amount of guests they have. Make sure you dont have a balance problem as you will not be able to stand in the house. It is like you are leaning at different angles. It is a really cool place and if you are into magical places that defy the realm of impossibilities this is the place for you. It was enjoyable for both myself and my Husband. He had never been there before so he thought it was totally weird. There is a gift shop on your way out but no restaurant. Totally worth a visit.

This was an amazing sight to see. It is definitely a must see if you are in the area.The guides are great and keep everyone interested and there is a great gift shop to pick up some neat souvenirs.

We are Cosmos fanatics. My dad's whole family practically worked there in their teen years - and have many wonderful stories to share. We visit annually or biannually and don't let friends who visit the area leave without a trip to Cosmos.

This place challenges you senses. Balls roll up hill and you can through them around a corner. You stand on th walls and watch water run uphill. Great family fun.

The Cosmos Mystery Area is an enjoyable time for the whole family. You walk through a number of different buildings and areas that challenge your perception. My kids were under 12 years old when we went, but it is really a nice place to go with kids even older than that. The "tours" leave often from the gift shop, so there is no walking around on your own. Overall, I would recommend it.

This place really gets you trying to figure out why it works the way it does. My favorite part is when you walk into the cabin and it does not seem right. Kids of all ages will consider it fun.

The attraction is fun, but there is no "weird" things going on there. The building is set at an angle so it makes you be at an angle. All you have to do is look out the windows and see that you are standing straight, just as the trees are. But it was entertaining and my family liked it. I recommend you visit the attraction - once.

Totally worth a stop--this is one of those water goes uphill, weird gravity spots. We had a good time even though it's a total tourist trap. We're looking forward to going back with visitors!

A house in the magnetic field. The admission charge is excessive as far as we are not even lucky enough to see closely the original house. The young guide thought funny and only some people were able to experiment certain phenomena. In brief, a place where I would not return.

Interesting, but just a building that shifted, which gives the appearance of things defying gravity. It plays tricks on your mind with optical illusions, but there's no "magical force" as the tour guides lead you to believe. Fun to do once, but overpriced and touristy. So many more beautiful and natural things to see and do in the Black Hills area.

I took some family here with small kids and as we got closer I began to say that I could feel the air changing and wondered if they felt out of balance at all. LOL the kids thought maybe they could feel something too. Wear tennis shoes, not for dress shoes.

something quirky for the kids to keep them entertained in the Black Hills. The young man who done our tour was quite a character and managed to hold everyone's attention for the duration

It's a fun little place to relax your mind and just have a good time. Went there a ways back and had a fantastic guide and a fun time touring the grounds and "mystery spots". We had a small wait on our visit but it went by fast spending our time in the gift shop.
