Mr/Mrs Hadley themselves. You pull into the lot, and audibly ask "lol why is there a Cold Stone in the same lot as this place" ... I just can't shake how great Hadley's Banana Date Shakes are. I had to write a review. Fun fact: The difference between a small and large is just 1 dollar! My wife and I were already somewhat full from our breakfast just an hour before, so we decided to split a small. Only 5.99. Nice! I'm not even hungry as I write this review, but man I couldn't help myself from buying one. You just can't pass up a Hadley Date Shake. So rich and tasty. It's one that makes the traffic through this place tolerable. And I will continue to preach to the masses. STOP BY HADLEYS.

I've been coming to Los Rios almost every year for the past six years, and I still love this place…read moreand the Oak Glen area. However, today was a little disappointing. We drove a long way and arrived around 1 PM specifically to pick apples, only to learn that apple picking now requires a reservation. The next available time wasn't until 3:30-4 PM. Since Los Rios closes at 5 and most other Oak Glen attractions close around 5-6, that really affects your ability to plan a full day in the area. Apples are currently $5/lb, and picking bags are 50¢ each and bags must be purchased beforehand. Bring your own or a cute basket. I completely understand that it has become more popular and reservations may be necessary. My frustration is simply that changes like this should be clearly communicated on the website and social media so families making a long drive can plan accordingly. I still love Los Rios and will absolutely return. I just know now that we need to reserve apple picking ahead of time before making the drive.

I was underwhelmed by this whole place and it makes me very sad because it's such a stunning place…read more The staff was friendly but there were so few people around that staff interaction was very minimal. I felt like I was wandering around guessing where I was supposed to go. If they're trying to cut back on the hourly costs there needs to be more signage or a map or something? I came here to go apple picking and just happened to park near one of the areas of trees available for picking. There was a single guy handing out bags, and he was very pleasant and we got a few but when he directed us to the next area he said to follow the white ribbons. There was literally one ribbon tied to a tree and from there we just wandered along a path hoping to see something or someone else. I can't tell you how many other people were stranded and asked us where we got our apple bag. We found a second area where there was a lady in a chair in the shade. We asked her if there was a map or something, and she said that there were maps, but that she didn't have any. There were only 4-5 trees at her station and quite a few bees and fire ants in that area. It made me a bit uncomfortable with littles. The lady directed us down a hill to the cashier station. They had a small gift shop and cafe. I paid $26 for a fresh pie at the cafe but they don't weigh the apples there so I went to the general store and paid another $25 for a bag of apples, which is fine (I guess). I haven't tried the apples yet, but the pie was nothing special. It didn't have a ton of flavor and just tasted like an unseasoned baked apple. I'm not sure what I was looking for, but with such a beautiful setting I just expected more than what I found. At least the parking was free? At least, no one was around to tell me otherwise.

The U-Pick area of the farm is gorgeous with old frontier style buildings, lush forest and garden and of course, dozens of apple trees. There's a cider pressing machine, coffee bar and sitting areas to enjoy the day. And I would recommend getting the cider, which isn't carbonated but was more like the best apple juice I've ever had. The apple picking was $5 a pound, so my friend and I shared one bag. $12.50 for the apple picking experience + gorgeous views and exploring the farm was beyond worth it!

Snow-Line Orchards…read more SnowLine Orchards is one of those places my family and I have been visiting for years, especially during the fall and sometimes in the winter. They're known for their delicious donuts, but there's so much more to enjoy! One of the cool things is that you can sample different varieties of apples before deciding which ones to take home. They also have a great selection of wines. Peach Perfect and Black Bear were two of my favorites. I was hoping to grab Red Tractor, but unfortunately, it wasn't in stock this time. For you pickers, you can pick your own raspberries and apples for a small fee. It's a great place to slow down, relax, enjoy the scenery, and spend some quality time with family.

Check the website or call the farms to see which orchards are open during your visit, or book a field trip. We've had a couple of locations closed on us when we arrived in the past. You can't go wrong with any of the apple farms. If you're looking for a specific type of apple, ask the staff and they'll be happy to point you in the right direction. Apple samples can also help determine what type of apples you want. Prices vary depending on the apple type, and a minimum weight requirement applies. At the heirloom Winesap orchard, there was a two-pound minimum. We enjoyed exploring and picking fresh fruit from the trees--a real treat for the whole family, especially the kids. Wear comfy shoes you won't mind getting dirty. The weekends can be terribly busy, so it's recommended to visit as early as possible or during the weekdays. Fall is also an excellent time of year to visit. There are plenty of places to eat and things to do around the area as well--a perfect place to spend the day or half a day.

Also the absolute best funnel cake I've ever had... I'm still thinking about it days later. I've also been for the Christmas festival. This was a lot more hectic... so many people but a totally different experience in a good way. Also a bunch of seasonal food options!!! Definitely a must-go for kids!

The $45 per person covers entry, in addition to one apple cider can (a pretty large one), an apple treat (we got apple pie made at a local bakery), and a bag of apples. We got there about half an hour before opening and were one of the first ones there, which was helpful when choosing/picking apples as later on the farm got busier. The apples were a fair size--lots of damaged ones but I'm sure that means they don't use any pesticides or anything. The farm also had two cute and friendly kitties that came up to us! Overall, I would recommend this farm for a nice little getaway from LA city life. I would recommend booking a reservation and arriving early, as parking can get packed and the farm does get pretty busy.
