The Robinson family are threatened with eviction from their forest paradise by the federal government unless they can prove that the land they reside on has valuable minerals on it that can be mined on a regular basis.

Director Jack Couffer relates the enjoyable story at a steady pace and maintains a pleasant tone throughout. Moreover, once again we get the usual assortment of adorably friendly animals along with a few nasty ones. The attractive and appealing cast helps a lot: Robert Logan as rugged dad Skip, Susan Damante as feisty, but fed-up mom Pat, Heather Rattray as spunky teen daughter Jenny, Ham Larsen as sweet son Toby, and George "Buck" Flower as crotchety mountain man Boomer. James W. Roberson's bright and pretty cinematography offers lots of breathtaking shots of the beautiful sylvan scenery. Robert O. Ragland's harmonic score and several cornball songs with sappy lyrics by Carol Connors both hit the tuneful spot. A nice diversion.
