    Can't believe how great this place is for kids. Only one floor but absolutely packed with cool interactive stuff. You could easily spend a few hours here (we sure did)! There's also a private nursing/baby changing room, snack/picnic table area and convenient parking. We came from out of town to visit family but will definitely be trying to get here again soon. We have season passes for the Discovery Museum in Winchester, VA and got in free since there both in some sort of National Children's and science museum group.

Large pumpkin patch you get any size pumpkins or they have an area with tent you can extra pumpkins in boxes all sizes shapes and colors and you buy ticket online or buy your tickets when you get there and the service is super awesome the people are so friendly happy and caring helpful and so kind and super helpful and they have super fun shop food and fun goodies it is really adorable everything is very organized clean and always sanitary and everything hers restocked always.

YOU ARE HEROES OF THE WORLD! I am coming back here all year and every year as a tradition. Happy fall everyone! From Lauren

    I had heard good things about their pumpkin patch last year and wanted to check it out this fall…read more The pumpkin patches I've visited in the past didn't have an entrance fee and $10 felt like a bit much to pay per person (especially for a 2 year old!) But now that we've been I think that the amount and variety of activities justifies the price. It's also nice that everything inside is included in the admission fee. My three kids had a blast exploring all of the grounds with various cute playground structures, swings, and slides. Several gardens, a tug of war station, a zip line, a small petting/feeding area, bunnies to watch, giant jenga and connect four - all generously spaced out with plenty of shaded areas and seating for parents and grandparents to relax. The corn maze is large but not TOO large. We took a photo of the maze map and were able to make our way out in 15 minutes (we took our stroller in without a problem). The tractor ride up to the pumpkin patch was a lot of fun for the kids and the views are very pretty. They did a great job of sanitizing in between rides as well. You can pick your pumpkins from the fields or from the store - both options are $0.50/lb). One thing I wouldn't recommend is their food. While very reasonably priced ($3.50 for hamburgers, $2 for hot dogs, and $2 for fries) the line was excessively long, the food took forever to arrive, and also wasn't very good. (Have you ever had over-fried funnel cake? So sad.) Next time we'll pack our own lunch. *just a note: this year due to COVID19 there are no pig races and no train rides

The vibe is truly what you make it, there isnt a large crowd or loud music, so bring the right company and you're guaranteed a great time. Whether you're rolling in with a big group or just a few friends, they make it easy, with separate checks, and even personalized orders by the awesome bartender. The experience is smooth from start to finish, so nothing gets in the way of enjoying yourself and the company you are with. Between the delicious food, good energy, and conversations that seem to flow effortlessly, it's the kind of place you'll want to linger. And let's not forget the art covered walls, perfect for capturing those Instagram worthy moments. If you wake up hungry and ready for brunch, Clementine is definitely the spot to be.

The experience usually great, which is why we keep coming back, and the menu is always fun! The service started great and the food came looking fantastic as usual, until I found a long hair in my bowl. Molly was very apologetic once we showed her the hair and she took it inside to show the kitchen. I told her I don't want another bowl , as I didn't want the food to go to waste and didn't have time to wait for a new one. Here is were the service turned south; - Molly didn't come back to check on us or fill the water cups - We didn't get a discount of any kind in the check, as you would normally expect! - I expected the chef or the manager on duty to come out and apologize, but that didn't happen. - Finally, Molly brought our check when we finished eating and didn't ask if we are interested in desserts, as typically the case! Just very odd reaction to an issue Like this, and shows lack of professionalism and training on behalf of the management on how to deal with bad customer experience like a hair in the food. By the way, I'm bold, so the long hair is from the kitchen!

    10.23.2025. Harrisonburg, VA. My husband and I enjoyed strolling through the Edith J. Arboretum, a…read morefour-season public garden located on James Madison University's East Campus. The 125 acre urban arboretum "provides all students and community members with an outdoor classroom, a forested haven that is home to a rich oak-hickory habitat of flora and fauna, flowering gardens, and native wildflowers." The arboretum is open from dawn to dusk 365 days a year, and has free admission. (That said, I encourage you to support the EJC by becoming a member). We enjoyed walking on the 0.9 easy loop trail, passing through or near the family garden, the oak-hickory forest, fern valley, the pond, and more. Being late October, there weren't any flowering plants, but it didn't matter. There are restrooms, family restrooms, a water fountain, picnic area, a few benches, and an information kiosk. There are also three free parking areas on University Blvd, all with handicap parking spaces. We parked in the largest R5 lot. The garden and paths are well-maintained and enjoyed by a variety of users -- students, people walking their leased dogs, and older folks getting in some gentle exercise. I had only two disappointments -- (1) I so enjoyed the arboretum that I wish it were bigger! (2) can hear some traffic noise, but I guess you'd have to expect that in an urban garden. We look forward to returning when next in Harrisonburg!

    The arboretum appears to have been constructed out of land that was too uneven to make into the…read moreusual college buildings, as it is hilly and has some weird angles. While the streambed running through it was dry, it had the insect population of a wetland and I struggled to stop and be still at any point during my exploration. The site has two small parking lots and a variety of attractions, including extensive play facilities for the pre-college crowd. Most of the other attendees, however, appeared older than college students. There were certainly some interesting sights to be seen, and no charge to get in.
