What Is the Lava Cave?
This unique structure was discovered during the construction of the Tom Fazio Championship Golf Course. Located on the eighth hole, the cave has played host to a number of events, including wedding ceremonies, a cappella performances, and private dinners. However, you don’t need to be hosting an event to explore the 60,000-year-old lava tubes. Guided tours are available, and the best way to book a tour is by emailing activities@juniperpreserve.com.
