Copper Creek Farm — Attraction in Calhoun

We had a great time, but for the memories, not the experience, the website advertises $20.18+tax for a weekday entry, we went today, today being Friday, it was $22 a ticket after taxes and the sign said the tickets were $20.58+ taxes. We still went in.

Our plan was to initially eat and go explore the farm. Little did we know the website is incorrect, we planned to get 2 hot dogs, and the tea that was advertised at (I believe) $7/4, my husband waited in the longest line while bees were everywhere, I had to wonder off because the bees wouldn’t leave my baby or the stroller alone. He gets to the counter to be told they no longer honor the website deals that they’ve changed prices, it ended up being $14 for 3 sweet teas in a small cup, and $20 for two small hot dogs that came with a bag of plain lays, and two pinky sized pickles. After trying to eat we eventually had to rush and move on as the bees constantly kept trying to join our meal.

We head to the corn maze, where we are greeted with pea gravel, which is NOT stroller friendly at all we ended up having to carry our stroller the majority of the trip.

We head up to the top part of the farm where the majority of the activities they advertised are, the corn play area is a small silo with corn. The bull weight limit is 200lbs. You ride the pony to only go in two small laps for 30 seconds. Milking the cow isn’t bad, and the animated chicken show is exactly what it sounds like, they just sing children songs which is enjoyable for the smaller children.

After being disappointed by these activities we head to the petting farm area where you will find a few goats and sheep.

Zip line weight limit is 195lbs.

If you decide to go on the hay ride know the line goes so far back it meets the cafe line, the bees will great you again. And you will have to wait another 30 minutes for the next ride to circle through to be able to ride if you are in the back of the line.

Make sure your babies in diapers are dry before you go in, there is no changing tables or areas where your baby is able to be changed unless you plan to change them in the stroller, all bathrooms are just a hole in the ground.

You hear pumpkin patch and you think you’ll be greeted with lots of pumpkins, they have a small area with pumpkins for purchase.

They have an area where you can paint the smallest pumpkins, but it’s $5 and 10-15 minutes.

Honestly, this place is very geared towards children that are 4+ definitely not a place for smaller children, they can’t do most of these activities they offer. I feel like I got robbed just walking through the entrance. They need to desperately update the website considering that’s what we went off of going to the farm, which was so disappointing, they won’t even honor what the website says either.

We got some great pictures but, that was about it, I’m honestly surprised we didn't leave...

Just left 100% disappointed. Traveled from over an hour away to get here then sat in the road for over an hour. Was literally the next car to go in and all of a sudden no explanation they shut the gate and said the would no longer pet anyone else in for the rest of the night. They wouldn't even talk or attempt to tell us anything other than they had reached capacity and would not let another car into the gate wow they allowed to cars to cut around the line come in the gate relief East 15 more cars in front of us and still said they would not let us in they were done for the night. This was extremely unprofessional we were literally the next car that was going to be allowed in we had traveled over an hour to get here we have even tried to call in over an hour wait sitting on the road point two miles from the entrance and could never get an answer to make sure we were not going to be turned away because we had traveled so far and then sat there for over an hour to get in the gate. I understand they reached capacity but the fact of just shutting the gate and not telling anybody and just walking away is completely unprofessional y'all knew the cars were backed up in three different directions in y'all know how many cars y'all can hold so y'all should have already been telling people that y'all are not going to accept anybody instead of literally waiting until we were the next car to be let in and then not even a sorry no come back next time no nothing just no explanation turn your back on us and walk away. So disappointed as me and my family had came up for the sunflower Festival and absolutely loved it and loved it so much we decided to come back for the Fall Festival and I even brought several more family members with me on a 2-hour trip to wait over an hour in the car to be turned away as we were the next car to be let in. We did get to see the crowd and it was so packed that people were literally smashed into this area touching shoulder to shoulder. I understand trying to make your money but don't you think you should at least make it enjoyable for the people who were there instead of squashing them in like sardines in a can? Then to turn your back on all of us was so unprofessional!!! Until you can figure out how to run your own business you should shut down this horrible atrocity you have created until you have it...

Do NOT waste your time coming here during October. It’s way too overcrowded and you will spend 90% of your time standing in line. So disappointed at our experience here. There needs to be a limit on the number of tickets sold per day. The hayride/haunted maze is the same thing, even though they make it out to sound like the “haunted hayride” is separate from the haunted corn maze, and also a “kiddie corn maze” This is not the case at all!! We waited over 2 hours in line for the haunted hayride/corn maze, and the driver stopped the hayride while a few actors popped up to scare us, at the same time a man was on the other end of the tractor telling a handful of people to get off and go through the maze. However, those of us near the front of the tractor didn’t hear him since we were getting scared by the actors, and the hayride was packed with atleast 40 people. So we didn’t hear him tell anyone to get off. Once we realized, the man still refused to let us get off and go through the maze (even though it had only been a few minutes since the first few people got off). Over half of us packed into the hayride didn’t realize we were supposed to get off, and once we did realize, they refused to let us get out and go through it. So we wasted 2 hours of standing in line to go to the corn maze, for absolutely nothing. Petting zoo is just a few sheep, nothing more. The “feed” they put out so you can feed the animals were all completely empty, and not being refilled at all. They have a sink to wash your hands after- but the soap was completely empty. No soap in the bathrooms either, and no toilet paper! Waiting in line for food or a drink was over an hour or longer. In order to roast marshmallows, you had to wait in the food line to get them, and again it was atleast an hour wait, because the lines were constantly wrapped around the building. Even if you weren’t buying food, you still had to wait in the same line just to get your 2 free marshmallows. The line for the hayride wrapped all the way around the farm, past the zip line and even all the way up past the barn slide. I’m not usually one to complain, but it was horrible. Now I’m just trying to figure out who I need to contact about a partial refund. I just read the reviews from last year claiming it was overcrowded too, so clearly they are doing nothing to...
