*PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE DAVE IS AN ACTUAL CREEP!*…read more Our neighbors and our family had started a tradition 4 years ago to take our families here to do the hay ride and purchase pumpkins and other things from Dave's pumpkin farm. We all got pumpkins, bales of hay, straw brooms and the like. Dave has no cashier and relies on an app to pay for purchases. This night his app was not working and we told him this. We kept trying. As we left, and still trying to get on the app. We got home and started unloading. And still trying to get on the app. It was night time and a truck pulls up across the street from me and sat there. I could not see into the truck and did not know who it was. I screamed out to the driver and said, who are you are you ok? I decided to call the police because I thought maybe it was somebody drunk and pulled over or he had car problems. Well, once the police arrived we found out it was Dave! He followed us home! He said we stole 300 pumpkins, which we only had about 15-20. The police told us he has a history of doing this, following people home that he feels did not pay enough. Now I have 2 little ones with me, 6 and 7. He is telling the police he wants us arrested! The police came back over to us and said "listen this guy is weird and off his rocker, have you got the app working yet"? It was not. My wife said listen... we can Zelle him for the pumpkins since the app is not working. The police said" we doubt he has Zelle, right now he is just rambling on that he wants you guys arrested but that is not going to happen because we believe you guys". The police officer said he has a Square on his phone where it can be paid through that device. So my wife walked over with the officer to Dave's truck. The total we knew was $126. Dave said just pay $119 because he could not figure out the taxes. According to the police, Dave has a history of doing this! He ruined our tradition and our kids are upset that this happened. The whole ordeal was about 2 hours long and our night was ruined! Now our whole tradition is ruined because we will not go back there where a stalker could just show up to your house! *STAY AWAY PLEASE BECAUSE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHERS BEFORE AND WILL PROBABLY HAPPEN AGAIN!*

Make sure to save up your money because it is very easy to spend, spend and spend. It's like a dreamy garden center that will make your head spin as there is so much to see and take in.

It was an old gift card--from 2013--that my mother in law never used. When we went to use it we were told that they couldn't find the gift card in their system and that the lady who handles the gift cards was off that day. We left them with our number and were told that they would call us back with an answer on what's going on with the gift card when the lady who handles the gift cards is working. Fast forward a couple of days. They never called us to let us know about the gift card, so my wife called them. The girl who answered the phone was rude and not helpful. She said that she knows nothing about that at all and can't do anything about it. She forwarded my wife's call to the garden department and it went to voicemail where my wife left a message. 2 days later my wife called again and the same thing happened. At this point I called them and spoke with the rude girl and gave her my name and number and she told me that the woman who handles the gift cards would be in the next day and would call me back. The woman who handles the gift cards did in fact call me back the next day. She was able to find the transaction for the purchase of the gift card in 2013 and the gift card was not listed in their system as expired. She told me that she would need to talk to the owners of countryside to see what they want to do about it and that she would call me back to let me know what's going on. This was a month ago and still nothing. No answer. We are very disappointed in how unprofessionally our issue has been handled. Both sides of our family have been shopping at Countryside for many years, hence the gift card from 2013.

This place is sooooo reasonablky priced - all the activities are free. You do pay for paint balls $3 a cup and for food for the animal farm (didn't do that so not sure how much the feed costs). We had lunch there and they have beer, cider and root beer floats as well as burgers, apple cider donuts and other items. All reasonably priced. I picked out a biiiig pumpkin and it was $10. Compared to other farms I found that to be a fair price considering the activities were all free. You need to check this place out-everyone is super nice too!

Yet, I know those needles all over the floor can be a huge pita..I like to think of it as a once a year pita. Make sure you hydrate your tree daily because they get thirsty too. Tree lots seem far and few between these days. Sure you can hit the big box stores; nothing wrong with that. But, you won't get the same selection and maybe not the freshest tree either..two of the biggest perks for stopping here. Lot is well lit and spacious. They have an indoor tent as well. This local business is formerly known as L&M Tree Farm out of Roselle by Murphy Farms of Itasca. They just moved to this location this year and it's much larger than the previous lot. Tree selection is stellar and there's no comparison to those chains. And, yeah it does come with a price tag, but you're also paying for the best selection and quality. Bill runs the place. Nice guy and offers a LARGE & beautiful assortment of fresh Michigan trees, including some wreaths and garland. Choose from Balsam, Douglas, Fraser firs and a variety of Pines and Spruce. From tiny to tall - they cut, wrap and load on your vehicle. Just a friendly place to stop in. Prices are competitive with other tree lots. A 7 ft. Balsam fir runs around $53, but you might be able to negotiate a little, we did last year. This year, I think Bill's wife was feelin a little 'scroogish' and didn't budge too much other than give us 10% off due to postcards they sent out notifying of their new location. (Bill's nicer at knocking off monies, fyi). Just tell them you got a postcard in the mail. They also charge sales tax (7%) so that 10% discount basically covers this. I don't know why they charge tax tbh...so yeah, support local businesses and bring Bill some holiday cookies!
