HOWES CAVE — The Cave House celebrates the last days of summer with the museum’s final open house of the season on Sunday Sept. 14.
The Cave House is where the remarkable story of the famous caverns, quarry, and community begins.
The museum, adjacent to the large Cobleskill Stone Products’ limestone quarry, sits next to the original entrance of Howe’s Cave. Built of stone from the quarry in 1872, it once served as a hotel that welcomed visitors to the cave. As a museum, The Cave House showcases the area’s geology, caves, and quarrying industry, past and present.
To commemorate a successful 2025 summer, visitors can enjoy make-your-sundaes while supplies last.
Admission is free. Donations are appreciated. The museum closes for the season after Sept. 14.

This museum-in-the-making is a nonprofit, NYS-chartered educational institution that promotes a greater understanding of the importance that local and regional geology and mining plays in our lives.
Donations to the museum are tax free and may be sent care of The Cave House of Mining and Geology, 113 Rock Road, Cobleskill.
