My daughters school planned a field trip here and I tagged along. Before heading out I decided to check out their website and was excited to see all of the activities and food options they offered! They offer funnel cakes, popcorn, nachos, fried chicken sandwiches and more. I decided not to pack our lunch but to get food once we arrived. To my surprise they only had nachos available. Okay no big deal. There seemed to be a lot of activities but a few of them were closed....including the slide(she wanted to get on the slide) overall the field trip was cool but we expected more. read more

Maize Adventure - Amusement Parks Near Me - Archdale, North Carolina

We didn't meet the Great Pumpkin, but we saw some corn (it's Cawn!) This was our first family corn maze and it was just right - not too difficult but not for babies. This is good for families of all ages, and it's a good group weekend activity for fall. We have teens and we still had fun. There are attractions and fun activities that come along with the corn maze ticket, such as a giant slide and huge jumping pillows. There are fall-inspired sweet and warm treats such as warm apple cider mini donuts and apple cider donut sundaes! These were delicious and devoured so I have no photo evidence. This park is also dog friendly. They could use more brick and mortar bathrooms installed. When we arrived, the only restrooms near the entrance were out of order due to low water pressure and the only option were port-a-potties located by the jumping pillows. I can't imagine having a group of young kids and babies, and trying to deal with that. All in all it was a pleasant day. read more

Great for kids, dog friendly, lots to do. There's a 10 acre corn maze, zip line ride through the woods, panning for minerals and fossils. They have a haunted house closer to halloween. A good day's fun for the family. $10 general admission does not include gem or fossil pans, or the giant jumping pillow. Zip line is separate and pricey ($69). read more

This is a great place for families to enjoy the fall weather and do their annual corn maze run. There's a game you can play as you're making your way through the maze, where you need to identify the killer of Farmer Joe. As you move from station to station, you "punch out" the suspects and weapons and locations, until you've broken the case. The people at Maize Adventure were really friendly. There are other activities here as S.J. mentioned. I think it's a great place for a kid's birthday party pending the weather since everything is outdoors. Good, clean, family fun! read more

Took my 5 kids to the corn maize and had a great day at the farm. My kids ranged in age from 21 months to 7 years olds. First tip, if you can purchase your tickets online if you can. The three ticket lines moved slow. We stood in line for almost 50 minutes from the time we got out of our car until we were in the park. Second if you can't purchase your tickets online, you'll drive by the front of the park en route to parking. Stop and have one person from your party get out and get in the ticket line while you park. To park, you'll drive around and enter the property from the backside. There are signs on the road that are not too hard to follow. Parking cost $5 so have some cash on hand. You will park up by the park entrance. The entry fee to the park was quite reasonable at $12 per person. Kids 3 and under are free. The corn maize is large and can be difficult. They have made a game with the maize and they give you game cards. You are supposed to find check points within the maize that work with your game card. This helps to increase the interest level over simply finding your way out after getting in. Don't worry about getting lost, they have one or two employees roaming the maize that will help you get out if you are exasperated. The maize paths were wide enough that I could fit our double stroller down them without much trouble. Next we went to the giant bouncing pillows. Essentially two large bounce houses. This was nice because they separated the kids by size so older larger kids were not jumping with our younger smaller boys. They had personnel at the gate monitoring the giant pillows which was very nice to help enforce the rules. We did take a ride on the tractor tram. This is a 10 minute ride around the periphery of the property. Only catch here is that it is a bit of a free for all to get on the tram. As soon as the team pulls up to the loading spot, be prepared to get right next to the tram and get on as soon as the existing people get off. They have some old time water pumps connected with pvc pipe by tram stop. You can buy a souvenir rubber duck to put in the pvc side and float back and forth. The ducks are not communal property, so don't accidentally take one like I did. Our family spent time mining for gems. You can buy a bag or bucket of dirt. Bucket cost $20 and then you take it over to there mining set up. You scoop some dirt into the sifting basket and submerge it in the water to was away the dirt and find minerals, gems, and fossils. We got several arrowheads and nice size gems in our buckets. They also have a sand lot where kids can find dinosaur fossils. Not great but my kids enjoyed. And they have a tree houses connected with rope bridges. Kids loved that. They also have a cow tram which is for the smaller kids. This tram is pulled by a little four wheeler. Again getting in line to get in this is peculiar. Just watch the process because it's like organized chaos. They also have a ropes course, zip line, and trampolines. These cost extra and are not included with the price of admission. The activities looked fun but my kids were too young to enjoy them. Finally the food looked to be reasonably priced. When comparing the prices to other amusement parks there prices were on the low end. Although I would get the donuts from the donut stand. All in all we spent an entire Sunday afternoon there and had a really good time with the family read more

OVER PRICED FOOD.Ok so let me take you through our trip to amazie. We get there and we go to the corn maze. It was fun but really hard. After that we took a ride on the tractor and we went on the giant pillow which both were pretty good. Then we were hungry. So we go to the snack bar and we ordered a 4 dollar basket of Fries that was the smallest basket ever. 3 Dollars for a small cup of pink lemonade (NO REFILLS),and $4.00 for a small frozen banana. The rest wasn't bad but Still. A tip for you eat before or after coming here. read more
