I wish I had visited Yelp before visiting this place. Absolutely bait and switch, do not go here. Trees are expensive, was quoted $20 a foot, with some trees carrying no price tags as you walked through pre-cut trees. Others had price tags, but what is on the price tag is clearly not what you will pay.
Here is exactly how my experience went. I walked around, I didn't really see anything that was worth what it was tagged for, but unfortunately my 12 year old daughter did and absolutely loved one tree. So I said, OK, it was tagged at $112 and said it was 8ft. I didn't think it was 8ft, but whatever. Had a very nice worker (sadly all the workers are pretty nice, almost too nice) who said it was his first day get the tree. He said they "Prep it". I said I didn't need a net as I had brought a full sized pickup, just cut off the end and I would be on my way. The worker took the tree and the tag on the tree went to the owner (which I didn't know until after this debacle, just thought he was another worker). The owner walks around with a Christmas tree hat and is the only one that can write up trees. I am sure he thought I never saw the price tag because he walked between me and the tree to snag it off and crumple it up in his hand, which I didn't think much of at the time. He then proceeded to ask if I needed to have it prepped, netted, etc., which I repeated the same thing I had told the worker, no.
At that time he handed me a "checkout slip", which had 8.5 ft circled at 119.86. I took the slip and asked why the tree had gone up in price and size from the tag. He gave me a nasty, surly look and said, "Because your F'n Governor charges 6.5% Tax." I said 6.5% would be $118.72, not what I was charged. He snarled, "just take your slip inside". Well I took the slip inside figuring I would find the manager or owner and a blonde woman was sitting at the register and asked for my slip. I relayed the story and asked to have it adjusted to the price on the tag. The blonde woman was just as surly and proceeded to ask me if I had brought my own saw and cut myself (it was pitch black by now and no signs that said cut trees were any different from their price tags),had it "prepped, netted, etc." I advised that I had done none of those things. At that point she advised me that was the Tree hat guy was the owner and what he put on the "slip" was it.
I bought the tree, but lesson learned. Absolute scam, do not do not buy. And as for the lovely amenities you get with a "petting zoo" and other things. He has four surly miniature horses and 5-6 goats shoved in two filthy, smelly stalls (I own 10 horses so filthy and unkempt I recognize!) that likely had not been cleaned in two weeks. Place is a complete filthy mess, trees are bail and switch, and owners are rude and demeaning. Run, don't walk from this place. read more
