“Have been coming to Apple Hill for close to 30 years now, it is an absolute must-do in the fall!!! Highly recommend going wine tasting, there are some incredible wineries throughout the area!! High Hill Ranch is probably our favorite, but Rainbow Ranch, Boa Vista Orchards and Able's Acres are also must-visit places for us to get cider, apple donuts and fritters, plus all of the amazing crafts. It is busy in the fall so pack your patience and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Great place to bring the kids and get some great pictures.”

“Such a cute and fun place to stop for a bite to eat and pick up fresh veggies and yummy fruits. Specially apples, they are so fresh and crisp. They're all kind of jellies, preserves, dressings that are freshly made. They also have a bar in the back and they have wine and beer tasting. Their fresh apple juice was delicious. They also had trip tip sandwiches and hamburgers. We also bought different pies and donuts. Everything was so fresh and delicious. Quiet an experience. Will definitely be back again.”

“I visited on a weekday, so it wasn’t crowded at all, and parking was super easy. The market itself isn't huge, but they have everything apple-related you could possibly imagine! I bought an apple pie, two donuts, as well as some fresh blueberries and apricots—everything tasted amazing. The prices were quite fair, especially considering it's up in the mountains and everything is freshly made. If you want to pick up some unique treats for family and friends, this is a great spot.”

“Boa Vista has plenty of servings of everything apple related. If you love apples, they definitely got it! I had fun. It was cold when we went. There were no crowd so no lines. The apples looked fresh. The donuts were delicious. The hot cider was way too sweet so if you are a sweet tooth this is going to be your jam. Staff was friendly and accommodating.”

“One great feature, it’s open on Monday when all other places in the area are closed. Nice country store, with a rustic bar selling locally produced hard cider and sangria, and a food to order counter with a nice eating area overlooking the Orchards.”

“We had such a lovely time at the farm! 🍁 The donuts were warm and delicious, the coffee was great, and the pumpkin ice cream was amazing! 🎃 The pumpkins were beautiful and the whole place felt so cozy and festive. Definitely coming back next fall!”

“Boa Vista had fabulous food for cherry days! Had doughnuts, the dumpling, tried the cherry fudge, they do samples! Brisket sandwich was amazing!! Cherry lemonade and sangria as well as a flight of their wines. Yum!”

“Although autumn is the best for apple hill, summer is fun too! Boa farms is open and don't forget to stop at Lava Cap Winery and try their white port. You won't be disappointed!!”
