For fans of the film you'll love this experience. Even for the casual baseball fans passing through Iowa, it is worth the time to stop and enjoy. I was there on Monday 9/9/24 in the afternoon, and there were only a handful of people visiting the site. I'd imagine other days can be busier. There is no admission fee to the site, but they do suggest a donation. I paid my twenty dollars, and the friendly gentleman at the booth gave me a nice pin and information on the site. You can explore the field all you want. They have bats, balls, and gloves if you want to play, or even just run the bases. Bonus, if you go to the top row of the bleachers and look to the far right there is a heart carved in the wood that says "Ray loves Annie", which was carved by Kevin Costner himself during filming of the movie. The house has a tour, which is twenty dollars, and there is a separate merchandise store available as well. There is also a small place for food and drink to purchase. No outside refreshments are allowed in. The house can also be rented for overnight stays, and the field can be rented for private use by the hour. The only area off-limits currently is the MLB field, which is further back past the movie site field. They are doing construction and prepping it for next year in hopes of having a game in 2025. There is also a museum that is down the road a few miles before the movie site. It's only open on weekends and has an If You Build It exhibit in tribute to the film and its history.

When the movie, Field of Dreams, came out, I sat stunned in my theater seat as the credits rolled and all I could say was "Wow!" This movie impacted me deeply. 30 years later, I made the pilgrimage to mark off my bucket list a trip to the movie site. Yes, as I rolled through the gate, I asked the young lady, "Is this Heaven?" She smiled and said, "No, it's Iowa, but a beautiful day in Iowa." While the site may not be on the level as say the Grand Canyon or Mount Everest and the movie itself is considered a mix-bag of controversial ideas, the site of a baseball field and a country farm surrounded by corn leaves one with an Americana simplicity that dreams can be realized, healing can come in the plainess of pitch and catch, and families bond over a childhood baseball field that whispers get into the game and go the distance. How can I not say "Wow!" again? As Terrance Mann puts it, "...it is a field that reminds us of all that once was good, and could be again." I turned down the driveway and enjoyed the simplicity of a baseball field...and it was good. The field's been built. Now all you need to do is come and turn down the driveway. It's a line drive to all that is good about a child's game on a simple field, but joyfully continues with us through each inning of our life.

I've been 3x! The field keeps getting better! The grass is very soft, & the house & field are in amazing shape! My only problem on my last visit was...a little kids game was going on, & we had limited access to the field! Rock music was blaring, & tents were blocking the view of the infield.. The a $20 car load admission was new. I enjoyed being able to take pics of the field..just wasn't allowed in the infield, wish it wasn't so crowded. It's a different experience, when a kids game is going on...which isn't a good thing for fans of the field. I couldn't really get the full experience. I enjoyed the baseballism store..it was just lacking little things like magnets. You can take a house tour for $20 which does include a giant magnet..I didn't go in the house! The magic of field is starting to fade, with all the new fields & hotels being built near by in the future. It'll ruin the magic of what that field means to sooo many.I still love visiting...but at some point..It won't resemble the movie, but more of a Disneyland type atmosphere. The locals agree! The movie holds a special place in many people's hearts. I hope it continues to recognize that.

Great family experience. Good message and fun day. We took the house tour and our guide was excellent. Some tips for future attendees: 1). Go to the museum in town for an in-depth tour of the making of the movie. Good place to buy your souvenirs. 310 2nd Street SE Dyersville. We did this around 10 am for the 1 pm game Ghost Players. 2). Arrive early to event and try to get in shade area up by the house but make sure you have a clean site line to home plate. We arrived an hour early and should have come earlier but still got a shady spot 3). Great antique store in town if you have extra time before or after Plaza Antique Mall 1235 16th avenue Ct SE. Dyersville IA 4). The house tour was excellent as our guide had first hand knowledge of the movie and MLB game behind the scenes information 5). Don’t forget lawn chairs. No coolers allowed. Bring sun screen 6). Concessions have hot dogs, hamburgers and similar items. Beer is sold in Dug Out 7). Bring gloves and ball to play catch on infield before or after the game. Kids are selected to participate so if interested be sure to ask workers about getting signed up

It was such an amazing experience ! I live in Indiana and we were 45 minutes away from the movie sight out of town for a funeral . It was a once in a lifetime experience seeing a cool place like that with my father you could purchase clothing baseballs miniature bats , hats and more from the gift store located across from the baseball field they have people going out on the field to pitch and or bat on the field the movie was filmed on and behind that field there is a baseball field that baseball games actually take place on ! There is also the home from the movie that you can take tours of and a place to get some food located next to the baseball field and also a bar . It looked like you could rent out a space next to the bar to hold events maybe I didn’t get a chance to ask about that but it was awesome the bar has a restroom but there is also porta potty’s . And if you have trouble walking they you park up closer to the field ! You don’t have to pay to get in but they take donations as well as offer you to purchase a signed baseball and some other memorabilia
