Overpriced, rude staff, and closed early without warning without refunding admission. Went here for pumpkin picking and a picnic with friends this weekend. It cost $60 for two adults and two kids (not sure why adults have to pay admission when everything there is for the kids). We got there around noon, thinking we had until 6 to leisurely do all the activities. It was raining, and so a lot of people left, but there were still a few families sticking it out and having fun. We went on the hayride, but instead of the full 10 minute hayride, they just took us straight to the pumpkin patch, so right there we got ripped off of part of our admission price. Then, we had our picnic, after which we brought the kids to the corn crib to play. They only were in there about 5 minutes when a worker lady came over and rudely told us to get out, without any explanation. Turns out they were closing early, but she didn't tell us that. I just thought they were closing that one attraction. After we got out I told the kids we could go do the corn maze, but then the same lady started yelling at us from the front stand and waving her arms, motioning to us to leave. I kid you not, she yelled at us "c'mon, go home!" Again, no explanation and no refund. I assume they closed because business got slow and it was lightly raining, but not sure. So I had to tell my little girls that we couldn't do all the activities I promised them because the owners of this place were being rude and don't know how to treat customers properly. They were very disappointed. Won't be...

Read moreCorn maze, slides, playground, swings for all ages, sand pit, hoppy ball area, rovking tractors, a few cornhole boards, hoop and bull game, corn crib, cow train AND hay rides! Tire swings, and swings made out of tires into tractors, cows, and more! Definitely a lovely day out for families with little kids! There were absolutely teenagers enjoying the corn maze slide as well 👍 We didn't see any of the animals this trip, but there is a cow barn, and other animals in fenced pens on the property.
Everything is outdoors, so wear stable shoes that can handle some mud and dust. Wear layers, and take a pocket umbrella and/or hand warmer in case of rain or wind. Collapsible wagons are also a plus for carrying your pumpkins out. You can buy water early in the day, but you might want to take a little with you in case they sell out. Sunscreen and sunglasses are up to you.
There were two food trucks out: Red Neck BBQ Lab (which was delicious), and one making mini-doughnuts.
My only concern is a lack of accessible play options for those that might need a full seat swing with an overhead harness due to mobility or other issues. I'm uncertain that the terrain is readily manageable for those needing walkers or wheel chairs. There were plenty of places to sit.
Nobody enjoys Port-a-Potties, but it is a farm, and they're better...
