“Had a great time. We got some awesome pumpkins and went for rides. Nearly 30 years old and I never knew horse drawn was a ride option! The man who was with his horses and took us on the ride was phenomenal. Very good spirited and funny. I wish I could remember his name, but I highly recommend him. Just look for the black horses and the guy with the silly hat if he's wearing it.”

“Very nice down to earth, hometown feel here. Not overly crazy on prices or amenities. Well kept animals and equipment. Super friendly staff! Corn maze was huge and fun for the whole family. Beautiful horses pull the “hayrides”. Donuts were super good!! Only bad thing was that we didn’t buy more donuts!! Lol.”

“Loved this place!! The Dutch Draft horses used to give hayrides were beautiful! The owners really take care of these horses and if the conditions are too wet it makes the trail too slippery and unsafe so they will not give hayrides during those conditions! So much fun and many activities!!”

“My kids had a lot of fun. We all had an amazing time as a family having donuts and apple cider as well as doing the corn maze and hayride. Definitely worth the price. Will definitely be coming back with my parents so they can experience the fun.”

“The kids look forward to the horse drawn hayride and corn maze every fall, but first we stop to pet and feed the animals. There's a fun play area. We end our visit with fresh donuts and cider by the fire pit”
