Looking for a fun destination for the grandkids, we learned about the Buford Corn Maze. It turned out to be a great local experience. The Corn Maze itself was properly confusing and intimidating! The farm animal petting area and the farm equipment to climb on was fun. The 'hayride' was pleasant and well organized. The downsides were, as others have noted, a somewhat challenging parking situation, and pretty steep prices for refreshments...but...what do you expect? Overall definitely a place for 4-8 year olds! But I wouldn't recommend it for older kids...who will dash through the maze and then spend time on their gaming devices. read more

I find myself becoming that curmudgeonly older guy who hates what everything costs these days. Inflation will always be a part of a progressive economy, but it seems as though prices have jumped exponentially over the past decade. Simple foods such as hamburgers have increased dramatically. I spent over $14 a few weeks ago at Five Guys for a double cheeseburger, fries and a drink. The new burger boutiques are right around $12 for just fries and a double burger (no drink) and some places in town charge $30 for a burger... a BURGER! (Almost made me cuss just thinking about it!) http://www.yelp.com/biz/local-three-atlanta?hrid=iiGX16DPd5q2Ol4cL2LjnQ Ordering a soda while out to eat cost as much as a happy meal did when I was a kid. Some places charge $2.99 or more. Don't even get me started on gas prices, youth sports leagues and people who expect a tip for a take out order. Seriously? You handed me a bag of food and maybe gave me a smile and I must now tip for that? So to come to a corn maze and pay $14 per person ($1 more than 2013) no matter the age, is... well, preposterous! Or pay $22 per person and you can also walk their haunted forest which means a family of four will pay $88 for two or three hours of fun running through a field of corn. *Scratch that... the rules clearly state "no running."* THE EXPERIENCE The goal of the maze is to find 6 stations w/clues throughout the maze. A nearly impossible task unless you pick up the map available at the maze entrance or scan the QR codes @ each station to receive a text for directions to the next station. I must admit that's pretty cool. I thought the trail was designed well to get the most out of the corn field. Once you've complete the maze you can take a 20 minute hay ride included in the cost of admission. Or you can check out the pumpkin patch, pet a few of the animals, take a pony ride (additional cost) or have fun in the corn box. Seriously, I had no idea corn was so comfortable to lay on. We buried ourselves in corn and had more fun here than in the maze! We were picking corn out of odd places for days.... LOL The Haunted Forest was fun and particularly scary at night if you have a phobia for clowns and chain saws. One of the kids in our group LITERALLY ran right out of his left shoe when the hockey-masked chainsaw guy and the creepy clown guy gave chase! Ran completely out of his shoe I say! Bwaaaahahaha! It was hilarious. [NOTES] One of the owners here also happens to be the host of the TV show called Small Town / Big Deal: http://vimeo.com/104642753 FINAL THOUGHTS Overall we had fun, but then again our group would've had fun anywhere. I firmly believe this corn maze is too expensive! BUT, it is a quality experience. I hear tell they have bouncy houses for the kids during the day (we came at night), live entertainment on the weekends and karaoke on Friday nights. There is also a concessions area with boiled peanuts, candy, hot dogs, drinks and other goodies for sale. I would highly recommend you pick up a bag of home-made deep fried BBQ flavored pork skins. They are thee best I've ever had! Buford Corn Maze is a lovely (and pricey) family experience that only happens late October through mid November. So don't try coming here in the Spring or Summer months because there will be nothing here. However, they do have Christmas trees for sale after Thanksgiving :-) I was torn over giving them 5 stars for the family friendly fun or 3 stars for the exorbitant touristy prices. I chose 4 stars because it really is a lot of fun for the kids. But if they raise the price again next year, they can definitely count on our family not returning. There are plenty of places that offer FREE fall activities and many have just about everything offered here except the corn maze. * * * PICTURES: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/the-buford-corn-maze-buford?select=mIgyBwfqZ7ZRi80-H2v72A&userid=JjXuiru1_ONzDkYVrHN0aw#mIgyBwfqZ7ZRi80-H2v72A read more

This corn maze is good in theory but they do not give you information at the gate or a map. Once you enter the staff is not helpful and there does not seem to be an information booth. They stated online they have live music on Fridays but no one was performing. Once in the maze some people had maps and some did not. We never were here before so we did not know to ask for one. The staff in the maze were not trained and were just as lost as we were. The female staff member we asked to help got us lost after 5 minutes of wandering around with her map turned all directions. She asked me to read the map for her and then had me get help from a 10 year old who stated she knew how to get out. If the staff were better trained and informative it could be a good experience. Hopefully it is just a bad start to the season and it will get better. read more

Very nice corn maze but expensive. Loved the hayride and all of the activities. I suggest going during the weekday to avoid long lines during the weekend. I highly recommend trying the corn, dipped in cajun spices. All in All I think it was a nice corn maze. read more

We went to the maze this weekend and we were very disappointed. There was not any covid safety protocols in place at all. The employees were not wearing masks. There was absolutley no social distancing with employees or with visitors. In fact, they packed people into the lines to the haunted forest. The maze was ok. Not great. The haunted forest was basically just dark hallways where someone would jump out. The people at the entry to the haunted maze were not even dressed up. Lines were long and packed. read more

No COVID protocols. They had a temperature check stand that was only there for show and one of the cashier wore her mask on her neck. Really short maze. People without masks were all packed together throughout the entire farm. I would DEFINITELY not recommend. read more

The Haunted Forest is not worth the drive, not worth the money, not worth the wait. Waited in line for Haunted Forest for more than 90 minutes and the experience was less than 10 minutes.They clustered groups with too many people, reducing any effect from scares (which were minimal). Actors were clearly exhausted and rushed us through. read more

Great for kids ages 2-12, not adults, over crowded and barley social distancing. Sad pony rides, 2 swings, a overcrowded bounce pad for kids, decent corn maze. Overhyped . read more

Enjoyed this last weekend even though it had thinned out a little. The workers were all friendly and helpful and we had a good time.

The Buford Corn Maze was very fun !! I got to go with my 2 sisters and we had a blast. We're all adults and even for us it was fun. It's super family friendly and we loved the diversity ! All cultures were there. The corn maze is very easy during the day, at night it is even more fun ! All the activities didn't have too long of lines. The hay ride is also fun and even more at night. I would suggest for the haunted forest you shouldn't let your kids or even teens go into it. It is scary whether people say so or not and I wouldn't want your child to have to experience it until they are much older. The Apple cider there is very good and the atmosphere is nice. We were able to leave, get food and come back easily since we still had our wristbands on so that's nice too ! read more

Took my family yesterday to try this place out, well worth the drive. Super family fun!! There's lots to do other than just the maze, if you do make it out you gotta try the Apple cider!! My wife and I both agree it was the best we have ever had!! read more

Amazing and fun place to hang out with friends and family and enjoy the wonderful fall weather! The staff is like family and very helpful in all request. The maze is fun with flash lights and the hayride is a nice escape from the city life of Atlanta. Its a great value at $14 per person...... glad to see it growing bigger every year, and look forward to it every fall I have booked my company outing here for the 2nd year and it is a wonderful place for all of our families to enjoy each fall- Thanks Buford Corn Maze! read more

Fun experience for the family. The kids corner is great. We also did the haunted house which was fun but beware of the tree trunks in the ground, which is a falling hazard. read more

Small venue. Great price. Bring snacks for the little ones. They have a concession stand as well. The Cotton candy was a hit with my girls. Restrooms are portable. Gas station is right across the street as well. Friendly staff. I hope you know how to read the map for the maze. We made it though in about 20 min. The hay ride was nice as well. read more

Very nice small fall area for the family, the haunted forest could use more scare actors in the maze

It's a big corn maze but everything else is small. The corn pit is mini, the petting farm is mini. The biggest problem and why we'll never be back is they put the haunted forest right next to the corn maze. So, as we go through it with out 6 year old he leaves scared because of all the screaming, chainsaws, etc. Even the hay ride goes by it, just not what I wanted my young kids exposed to. read more

This is the third corn maze that I've checked out. It was really close to my church, and I wanted to take the youth group (6 kids). I had driven past it several times and my husband I kept thinking that corn would only come up to our shoulders. The kids didn't want to drive any further, and this was really ideal for Friday night- so, we ventured out. I was pleasantly surprised that the corn was at least above eye level for 90% of the maze and even had a couple of small sections that were about a foot taller than me (I'm 5'7"). You couldn't see over the corn to know which way to go or anything- and it was comfortable for someone who was supervising several 13 year olds. This is also THE CORN MAZE to go to if you have never been in one and you are scared you may feel claustrophobic in a corn maze. It took about an hour to go through the whole thing. The kids really enjoyed it. Half of the kids wanted to go into the haunted forest. There wasn't much of a line and the haunted section only took about 15 minutes. That was nice as I was entertaining two others while the kiddos went through that with my husband. They enjoyed it- talked about it quite a bit. Some were scared, and some weren't. Drinks were reasonable. I think it was $1 for a water, sports drink, or hot chocolate. The sports drink may have been a couple of bucks, but for a place like this I thought that anything under $3 was reasonable. We also went on the hay ride. We didn't have to wait very long, as this corn maze wasn't very crowded. It was a nice set-up, and we went back through the woods (not the scary part). We had a very pleasant experience. Great for a group or a first timer in particular. read more

This place is seriously lacking in almost every aspect. No petting zoo. No pig races. No apple cider donuts. No mechanical pumpkin eating dinosaur. A corn box no bigger than my bathtub. You can't feed the farm animals. For 15 bucks a person, the owners need to talk a trip up north and see what a real autumn pumpkin patch / maze should be. They've got a ton of unused land here. Do something with it. Will not be going back. read more

We had a good time! Our kids are young and get bored easily, but we liked how everything was close together. It is one of the smaller ones we have visited but still feel it was worth it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rawfyaPBjg read more

My husband and I took my parents out for a fall night of fun. Lots of fun! Loved the corn maze/hayride and caramel apples!!

Our group of kids had fun visiting and participating in the assorted activities at this seasonal event. However, the traffic leading into the location was uncontrolled and often dangerous, and the lines to pay admission were slow to the point of barely moving. How many years has this been in operation? It seems that they should have learned to have uniformed traffic control at Friendship Road to prevent drivers from blocking the intersection and preventing traffic flow, and the staff at the admission booths should be able to move the lines at more than a snail's pace. The traffic is our biggest point of concern. Cars blocked the intersection through several cycles of lights, making it impossible for non-event traffic to pass and dangerous for anyone to try to move in any direction. Overflow parking appears to be needed, since the lot was beyond capacity when we finally got in. The line delays to pay admission just added to the frustration. Almost an hour and a half to get in and pay AFTER getting to the location? No, thanks. We'll find somewhere else to take our group for our fall-season thrill and chills. read more

The staff were amazing! The attractions were close together. But it's not worth the entry fee.

My team from work did the corn maze as a team building activity so we rushed through it to see who would win. We did it during the day so I would assume it's harder and might be a bit better at night. There weren't a lot of people there so it was a good time to go. We also did the tractor ride, which basically goes around the perimeter of the property. Like the other reviews say, you probably aren't getting what you pay for and if there are lines, I wouldn't wait to do it. It's definitely something to do to check off your list, but definitely go when there's no crowds. read more

Please do not waste your $25. We stood in line for well over an hour to go through the Haunted Forest and our guide was terrible. There was absolutely no scare factor and took 5 minutes to walk through. I was very disappointed. The corn maze was fun and the people at the entrance were nice. Way overpriced and not what we expected read more

Risky covid behavior. I don't normally give bad reviews but was sooo disappointed this evening at 6pm when we were coming to the corn maze. We had bought our tickets online for today's date specified. The place was beyond packed to the brim with overflow parking and crowds everywhere. No one was wearing a mask and not standing or sitting 6 feet apart. Normally I don't mind some amount of people when outdoors but it's a small venue. It was such a scary sight that we decided not to risk it and left after going through the parking lot trying to find parking. Lines of people to go through admission with no social distancing markers, hayride with people sitting shoulder to shoulder no masks on. You couldn't easily distance yourself anywhere in there it was so crowded and can't really get away in such small areas like waiting in lines. I was most disappointed that the place didn't limit the number of people when they could have at least online tickets. They were clearly at 100% capacity or over that. Also they should require all guest wear masks like other amusement centers. That said I'm going to ask for refund on the $100 I spent. Not sure if today was busier than normal because it's a nice Sat evening and first October weekend but it could have been managed better. read more

Super fun except you wait in line for a good 2 hours + for the haunted house. They need to figure out a better system to get people through the haunted house. read more

Covid where ? They have sign that say 6 feet apart and sanitizers here and there but no social distance at all of rules when it comes to number of people allowed on the farm , maze and haunted house and tractor. Oh and the kids activities. They had nobody sanitizing the little kids ride after each kid got out or sanitizing the tractor . Everyone was sitting closely together on the tractor. I recommend they hire purple to sanitize and monitor crowd limits, lines etc. they opened but irresponsibiliy , I was uncomfortable. read more

definitely not worth the price at all, $16 for the corn maze and $16 for the haunted forest definitely never coming again there isn't much here read more

I thought it would be fun, but it was very small. I went for the haunted forest and it was just terrible. We spent 1 hour in line and when we got in, it was soooo disappointing. Some of the actors were good but the whole thing felt like a bootlegged version of netherworld inside someone's garage. The whole place was tiny and there wasn't really much to do. They didn't even play music. I give them an A for effort but that's about it. read more

What a sweet group of people!!! I came intoBuford Corn Maze with a broken foot and in a scooter. During the corn maze, the wheel fell off because of me not fixing it earlier. Kyle and the team radioed over and gave me 5 STAR service!!! The fixed my scooter!! They had to find a new screw and had a specialist fix it!!! On top of that they put me a wheel barrow and drove me to the front! I couldn't be more happy and lucky to these sweet group of people. This type of sincerity and care is rare in the world and to find it in Buford at a Cornmaze was just so amazing! Coming back every year to see these people! read more

15$ per person for this "experience" is super expensive for what is being offered. You can buy pumpkins and pay 4 times more than in any supermarket. The maze is small and nothing to justify the price. I should have checked the reviews before coming. read more

It is very expensive for what they have. They don't sell anything separate, like I couldn't just do the corn maze... I had to pay for a hayride too. And to be honest I don't care about the hayride! So I feel like paying $13 to run around a small corn maze was way too much. My money will be better spent at Jaemor farms. read more

I went on a Sunday. I arrived at 10 right when they opened with my 2 year old. We met up with 3 of my mommy friends and their 2 year olds. The first thing we did was walk down to the animal pen. There were potbelly pigs, goats, chickens and ponies (you can't feed them and riding the pony is an extra $5). The first hay ride didn't start until 11 so we played on the swing set and bouncy castle until then. One of the kids loved climbing on the tractor. The hay ride was cool for my 2 year old and the other kids but not very interesting for the adults. Then we headed back to the bouncy castle, corn pit, swing set and air bounce. My daughter loved the swing set (seriously, I could have taken her to the park down the street). I loved the air bounce. Adults and children can bounce. It was so much fun! It can be a little dangerous for little kids who could get bounced all over the place if you aren't holding onto them. Someone was painting faces for free near the swing set and there is a mini maze for kids. The freshly made kettle corn was delicious and I got a big bag for $6 along with freshly squeezed lemon juice for $2. They have a small snack bar where you can buy hot dogs, hamburgers, grilled cheese sandwiches (delish!), chips and drinks. They also sell boiled peanuts, caramel apples and pumpkins. I didn't try out the maze or the haunted forest. The place isn't big but that's what I liked about it. I have a 2 year old and don't want to have to lug her or walk her long distances. There are porta potties everywhere too. She is potty trained so we needed those. We stayed until around 2pm and the time flew by. Overall I spent $15 to get in and $14 on food (hot dog, grilled cheese sandwich, popcorn and lemonade) for me and my daughter. You can bring your own food if you want. They have picnic tables to eat at in a covered area. It was a lot of fun and interesting for my baby girl. I would definitely go back. read more

Went to the cornmaze with my daughter and husband everyone was so nice and i wouldnt help notice how comfortable and welcoming the man at the pony ride station was. He made our 17 month old laugh and be comfortable during her pony ride. Thank you for creatimg such a great experience for my family! 9 read more

Absolutely a total rip off. They want to charge $10 a head to not even DO anything, then charge another $22 a head to do the corn maze, haunted forest and hayride. Someone needs to tell them they're not Six Flags. Not paying over $100 for my famiky to ride on the back of a tractor and walk through corn. Pass. Save your cash and go someplace else like Corn Dawgs or Jaemor which is drastically less and much more fun. read more

If you are local it's somewhere you may want to try, I definitely would not make a special trip to come here. Everything is overpriced and the staff isn't the friendliest. The kids area has gotten a little better compared to years ago. The haunted trail/forest is a total joke, it's very elementary and poorly designed. I wouldn't wait in line more than 15 minutes to go through it, nor would I spend more than $10 on it because it simply wasn't worth it. Expect to trip a couple times over tree roots and uneven ground, don't go if it's rained anytime around your trip, my shoes got all muddy when a friend tripped and stepped on me. Definitely sticking to Jaemore from here on out as there is more to do and the staff is way more welcoming. read more

The corn maze is very small and boring. The haunted forest was just a walk in the dark with a lot of loud noise and not scary or fun at all. Way overpriced for what you get. Very disappointed! Won't be back. read more

If you've never seen corn you're in for a treat, but if you've ever been to a corn maze this one was a major disappointment. I could see every landmark and my family members over the too short corn. My grandmother laughed for about 20 minutes when she saw it. Skip it! read more

Waste of my money due to it being so expensive. So my girlfriend and I just got home from the Buford Corn Maze and we didn't have a not so good experience. The maze and the hayride were good, but the haunted forest was terrible. The maze wasn't too big or too small and was actually pretty tricky. Not simple or easy to find your way through. The hayride was interesting not boring. Had some rowdy teenagers that made the ride less fun but we're not completely annoying. If you have kids. They have a few things for them to do also which but do be ready to pay to watch. It was $50 for my girlfriend and I to be able to do everything. $25 a piece. Where the only 2 stars come in is the haunted forest. Now I'll admit we were there during peak time on a Saturday. We wait 2 and half hours for less than 10 minute walk through. Why it took so long? As you are walking through the haunted forest, you start to notice you are walking through the same areas you were just in. So they only can let so many groups in until they are through different areas. My biggest problem I had was the large group you walking through the forest with. The group size is 10 people. We didn't know the other 8 people in the group. So at a particular scare, we get pushed from behind, and my girlfriend falls to the ground. As I'm trying to help her up, the people behind are trampling her and pushing her back to the ground. I get it was an accident, but this may could of been avoided with smaller groups and the guide watching closer. You are given a guide walking through the haunted forest but he leaves you time to time, which was fine but he was absent in the prior incident. There is a sign that explains the rules and policies and toward the bottom is the statement "not responsible for bodily injury." We will not be returning ever. read more

We were there around mid October. The parking lot and the corn maze were extremely dusty. We got lost in the corn maze so that was fun.
