“My husband and I got married at Royal River Orchards last month and it was the most amazing experience. We wish we could do it all over again! Leslee and Dave were extremely helpful and friendly throughout the entire planning process and their farm is absolutely gorgeous. Our wedding party enjoyed staying in the adorable farmhouse next to the store. The store is also excellent, with lots of yummy cider, donuts, pumpkins, and more. We will definitely be shopping again here in the future. Thank you for a wonderful wedding weekend!”
“This place was so much fun!!! We went on the flashlight corn maze and we definitely got lost a couple times but we made it out! The cider donuts, the hay ride, not to mention the ticket purchase you got to take a pumpkin home! The donuts were super fresh and sooo delicious!!!! I'd definitely go back. I might have picked a Cortland off the tree and it was the best apple I've had in a long time!!!!! They had a fire pit going so you can hang out and stay warm.”
“We had the best time this evening at Royal River! We bought syrup and apple cider donuts. We enjoyed the cozy fire place area and tested our luck navigating the cornmaze! They also have s’more kits for sale to use at the fire. Desmond took us on a tractor ride. Everyone was so friendly. Wonderful fall evening with our family and friends!”
“We had a great time here. They even offered the kids a little wagon ride which was cute. The donuts were delicious and we got to pick out some very nice pumpkins. I'd highly recommend going here.”
“Very cute family owned business. They have a sizeable orchard, a corn maze for the kids, and a shop full of goodies (their molasses cookies are the best!!). Looking forward to going each year!”
