We were visiting in Gainesville when we read about the Corn Maze event at Coon Hollo Farm. What a…read morefantastic trip we had! We happened to have our well mannered 10 year old dog in tow, and the owner kindly said it was okay to bring her on the farm. We had our 3 year old, sisters kids: 3 babies under 12 months, 10 year old, 13 years old & 5 adults who came from Tampa & Crystal River to meet up at the farm. What a blast we all had! The farm is beautiful. Admission to the event was just $10 per adult (3 & under were free). Unlike the one reviewer, I though the food was priced fine (and smelled great). I grabbed about 8 bottles of ice cold water & was surprised the total was $8... Coming from South Florida, I expected "event pricing" but $1 a drink was perfect for us. It was tough to drag the kids away as there was so much they enjoyed: the slide set up in the field, jumping on the huge hay stacks (they were about 30 bundled stacks secured together for kids to run back & forth on), the tire swing, feeding goats & bunnies (they left a bag of food open so kids could just reach in & grab to feed them) as well as riding the pony &/or horse (all included in admission). The kids all got a kick out of watching the goat jump on a small barn roof then up a tree. It was the highlight of our trip and we are looking forward to going back very soon.

Coon Hollo Farm is a family run farm. It has been in the same family for 5 generations. This is the…read morefirst year that they opened their farm to the public and created a corn maze, had hayrides, a "farmyard" playground, and small pumpkin patch. I took my 2 year old son on Halloween. It was surprisingly not very busy that day but, apparently, that was not the norm. My son was too tired to explore much and just wanted to be held. So I decided to take him on the hayride. It was a nice ride out to a pasture where a herd of cows were grazing. The driver took us right into the middle of the herd and they swarmed us, knowing it meant food. Alex was scared by the cows, but I was impressed and enjoyed feeding the cows the feed they provided. I would say we were out there for at least 10 min before they took us back. Again I tried to get Alex to play, unsuccessfully. But we did take a short walk through the corn maze which he seemed to like because it was an easy path to follow. After that, he explored some tractors they had set up in the play area. I tried to get him interested in romping around in the hay play fort, but he wasn't very interested. The farm offered another little ride which we got on and I think he liked it. I know I did. I'm such a kid at heart. We didn't hang out long after that because Alex was just exhausted and so was I. I feel like it was a nice time shared with my son. It had potential to be much better if he had taken a nap that day and was well rested. I thought the pumpkin patch was small. The play area was really nice. They did offer a concession stand. One of my coworkers said the burgers were great and a good price. Sadly, I didn't get a chance to taste them myself. Since this was their first year, I definitely see room for improvement. It definitely has potential to become something really great. It was definitely worth the $8 spent.

You have to drink it fast or get it straight to refrigeration so as to avoid botulism. It's worth it. Best OJ you will ever have. I'm also a big fan of the honeys and jams. They are only open seasonal, so get it while the getting is good. With that being said, I have to say my last stop here was somewhat unpleasant. I came in the store, so happy to be there, and was greeted by two people behind the counter. One was a younger woman, wearing a shirt that said she had an allergy to mornings. Lol. She smiled and was kind. However her counterpart was an older woman who treated me like I had done her wrong. It was so obvious that she didn't want to be there, or didn't want me to be there, that when we left, my boyfriend asked "Did you try to flirt with her husband or something?" I understand that life happens and we can't always be in a good mood, but as a former retailer her demeanor was unacceptable. The store would have been better off without her in it. (I suspect she is part ownership.) This is why I give 3 instead of 5 stars. If it wasn't for the OJ and the other staff member, I would have given them 1 star.
