My girlfriends and I went to check out the great pumpkin trail. Tickets can be purchased online or at the door. This trail was really cool, a mesmerizing trail, illuminated by over 10,00 0 intricately carved jack-o-lanterns! The trail was a Half-Mile long so it is not too long, we had fun and an enjoyable evening of pumpkin mania and seeing faces on pumpkins we've never seen before. Free parking. read more

Pinehaven Farm - Venues & Event Spaces Near Me - Wyoming, Minnesota

I really loved heading over here - I will say that it's rare to experience something just as fun as a kid as when you're an adult. Walking in, I made a bee line for the little coffee house after the drive from St. Paul out to Wyoming. It was good, and I was on a mission to find the funnel cake food truck. It's been a minute, and since I didn't make it to the fair this year, I was determined. We got the cookie monster, funnel cake topped with Oreo and Chips Ahoy cookies, chocolate drizzle and whipped cream. Pretty sure I had a week's worth of caloric intake, even with splitting it, and I didn't care. Next, we headed over to the apple launcher area. At first I couldn't see where the workers were, but the building is set back a bit. We had a blast launching apples at the farm equipment and barrels. We walked over to the pumpkin patch trailer area and had a great time picking our pumpkins. I immediately grabbed a pretty pink one. I was glad they had little wheelbarrows for us to transport our pumpkins as we continued walking around. Before we headed out, we checked out the farm animals and the gift shop. I loved the variety of jams, pickles, and salsas. I grabbed the blueberry jalapeno salsa, cherry jam, apple butter and dill pickles. I've had a chance to bake with the apple butter and it's delicious! Overall, a great time and something for everyone! read more

We went with the kids the day after Halloween and they had trick-or-treating and scavenger hunt for them. This was our first time at Pine Haven farm and it was so much fun. The kids didn't want to leave. Their favorite was the corn pit, which is the deepest corn pit I'd ever seen. They loved the jumping pillows, small houses, hay bale stack, obstacle course and of course the pumpkin ride. There was plenty of room just to run plus lots to do. They kept busy for 4 hours and wanted to stay longer! Their favorite mini donuts and churros were available for them to munch on. There were plenty of other food options but who had time to eat when there's so much to do. We've decided to make this an annual event. It's very clean. The people are all nice and very helpful. I just can't say enough good things about this place. We paid full price but it was worth every penny! read more

What a great place! I'm actually kind of disappointed I've never been here until this visit. We purchased tickets in advance for small discount and got there about 30 minutes after opening on a Saturday. Parking is pretty easy and well organized, make sure and note your row! It was a rainy start to the day but even still they had fires going and as many activities open that could be considering the weather. The experience can fit a variety of ages but I think the sweet spot is that 4-12 year range. They can do everything and are the most excited about things older kids may find boring. Admission gets you access to most activities, you could easily be entertained without spending any extra money. The add on experiences aren't too spend though, $5-12 for gem mining, apple shooting, paintball, face painting and more. I was surprised at how many food options there were, should be able to find something for adults and kids. Plus, they have a full bar for the beer garden and you can wander around with a beverage. My kids loved it and want to make it an annnual event. I was impressed with the size and number of things to keep kids occupied. We stayed almost 6 hours! read more

Went for the pumpkin trail that I purchased online from Groupon and this was worth it 100%. The amount of fake pumpkins this placed carved is insane for this event but makes it so memorable and fun too. Almost any Halloween theme you can see it on a pumpkin here. So many selfie/photo opportunities and the staff was so friendly that they would take pictures for you with your group. We stayed for about 2 hours but could have stayed longer as the light up walk way was a hit with the 9 year old. This is great for all ages. read more

We went to check out the great pumpkin trail. Tickets can be purchased online or at the door. This is an outdoor event so we had to bundle up. There were peak and non peak days to choose from, non peak is always cheaper. There's so many things to do there. A section of food trucks to choose from, corn pit, the glider, and of course the pumpkin trail. There's an attendant at the entrance will check for your bracelet and mark them. This trail was really cool. Lots of light and colors. I can almost see them do a Christmas theme here also. This farm is also the same as the haunted hayride. Huge parking lot and free parking. read more

We've been coming to pinehaven farms for YEARS, since the 2000s it has been WILD to see how much this farm has grown over the years they have really made this a top tier pumpkin patch experience. There's food trucks, now there's new buildings serving drinks and food, stage for live music, several new activities for kids and adults alike, it's awesome. read more

Narrative: Family Fun Day in Late September. We were looking for something to do outside to celebrate the season. We pass by this place all the time heading up to Duluth so we decided to give this place a try. Aesthetic: So this place is definitely a converted family farm, you see bits and pieces of the old place but a lot of creativity has been added to the acreage. There was a ton of things to keep my 8, 6, and 1 year old busy all afternoon. Things to Do: So much! Slides, corn pit, apple cannon, pumpkin cannon, huge ladder ball, duck races, tractor rides, flower picking, Zipline, pumpkin-eating dragon, etc. Most of the activities are included in your ticket price. We also came during a craft fair, highly recommend. Food: we didn't try anything since we brought a picnic lunch but they offered various food trucks with an assortment of fare. Prices were food truck standard (pricey). Price: Entrance fees are not terrible considering the amount of time we spent and our kids had fun. This place definitely is more geared to the younger audience - 12 years old and below. Teens might not find much to keep them entertained. Why You Should Go: Fun place to celebrate Fall and enjoy the outdoors before it gets cold. read more

I visited Pinehaven Farm with my Nana after seeing the sign off of I-35. Even though I don't have kids, it was pretty fun. My Nana, who is also a MN native of 70+ years wished she knew because she could have brought the kids here when they were younger. The employees are friendly and helpful. The tickets prices were decent. You can buy your tickets online or at the door. They have various food shack and trucks with fair prices. They have various cuisine types: American, Asian, Mexican food. There are a lot of ATM available since they do not accept credit card under $5. Lots of picnic tables around to sit and eat. They have a gift shop with lots of interesting things like raw honey, books, candles, t-shirts, toys, and candies. I was a sucker and bought Frankie the Frankenstein from Build a Buddy. (It was so cute! I couldn't help it! Haha!!!) I thought it was neat that they have a baby changing station. There was live music. Nana and I walked around the farm and it is a great place for families. We got to shoot honey crisp apple at the Apple Blaster. We stopped by the coffee shop and got some smoothie. There was also a petting zoo. Oh, and parking was good too. I like that they have the numbering available so you remember where you parked and they have lines. (A lot better than Ren Fest's lot.) Overall, it was fun even though I don't have kids. read more

This is my 2nd year attending. My family and I liked it enough to come back. It can get busy on the weekend, but it's a large place. There is plenty for the kids to do. There are a lot of photo opportunities and food truck options. I tried the taco truck- it was average. The pumpkins are only $5.00 if you pick your own! read more

5 stars based on comparison to other pumpkin patches I've been to. This review is based on a visit to the pumpkin patch. First, this place is huge. We went on the Thursday of MEA weekend. A non school day for majority of kids so maybe not as busy as a weekend but still busy. It never seemed busy though because everything is so so spread out so it never seemed too busy. So many things for the kids to enjoy. The kids in my group mostly enjoyed the corn pit, the jumping pad, and all the various play sets they could play on. The adults in the group enjoyed the photo ops everywhere and the food options (and the corn pit). In terms of cost: it's comparable to other pumpkin patches I've been. But considering the selection of things to do, well worth it. Tip: buy online and look for a promo code. It's $17 at the window but we paid $13 each by buying online (as we drove there). read more

I took my family there during thr craft fair. The kids had so much fun. The corn pit and the jumping pillow were a hit for the little ones. I love that they have different things to do and many places to take pictures. When we visited, they also had food trucks with various options, which I liked. My nieces were already planning another, and I'll gladly take them. read more

The word I would use to describe Pinehaven Farm is...hokey. Yeah, that's it. Hokey. The price of admission for an adult on a weekend in October is $17. Then, you pay for every little thing inside. Want to shoot corn cobs out of a canon? Extra charge. Want to "race" a rubber duck? Extra charge. They have found a way to turn anything (and I mean anything) into an amusement. Even if it means turning an old barrel into a horse that your kid can sit on. Yay. The pumpkin patch was pretty weak. A tractor ride takes you out there where you have to wade through tall grasses and weeds to look for pumpkins (which is weird because every pumpkin patch I've ever been to has been a tilled, flat surface, with only pumpkins). It's a quick ride around the patch, which is surrounded by old junk cars and an ancient, rusty tugboat (yes, I said tugboat) and other miscellaneous junk (like a refrigerator). Not very aesthetically pleasing. Things I liked: the petting zoo (lots of animals living together in what looked like harmony), good variety of food options, and the staff were very nice and clearly cared about their jobs, so I hope that means they're being taken care of. Maybe this would be a good choice for very little kids who are easily amused by anything, but for $17 per adult? Yikes. Way too expensive and the place really needs to be cleaned up. read more

Our family has been going to Pinehaven since it was a Christmas tree farm. Now it is the Most Sincere pumpkin patch in MN. While the price of admission has steadily increased to reflect the value they have added with all of the included activities, live music, photo ops and food trucks, it still has the atmosphere of a quirky family farm. We spend a whole day here. My kids' favorites are the corn pit, animals, slides and jumping pillows. My favorites are Farfel, the animatronics, especially the skeleton pirate band, and the classic wagon ride out to the pumpkin patch to find the perfect pumpkin. Probably the Great Pumpkin rises from this patch. Or maybe it's just Snoopy. Either way, it's most sincere. My only complaint is that last year they didn't have Farfel t-shirts for sale. Hopefully they do this year! read more

A bit spendy but fun for the kids. If you're going just as adults this might not quite be your thing, but if you bring kids, it's great. Very large, the trampoline is a gas read more

Nice visit on an autumn day. It was a weekday, so the root beer, roasted corn on the cob, other items were not available. So, if you want to try everything-go on the weekend or MEA. I enjoyed the corn maze, pumpkin cannon, and walking around the farm grounds. Good time for a family excursion! read more

Went here on a Groupon type deal - which was good. The place was a bit hokey, though I'm sure it's fine for kids. Highlights were the petting zoo and the pumpkin cannon (though it'd be nice if they'd fire more than 1 pumpkin per hour.) Kids might get a kick out of Farfel the "pumpkin eating dragon". (I had envisioned something more elaborate!) They have a maze but instead of a corn maze it is made out of orange safety fence. Totally cheap, but it was harder than I expected so that made up for it. A bit surprised/annoyed that they don't include a small pumpkin with admission (at least for kids!) but small pumpkins didn't seem too expensive anyway - we got 2 for $4. Not a bad afternoon, but there may be better pumpkin patches around. read more

DO NOT GO HERE! They are an outside event, pumpkin patch place and they don't allow dogs! They have one little tiny sign when you arrive. It's in the country and in the middle of nowhere so you would expect it would be ok to bring your dog.... especially when on a leash. Why wouldn't you allow a dog?! Not worth it. Go somewhere else in the twin cities. Very empty here and they wouldn't give any exceptions. read more

We took the kiddies here on a beautiful Sunday. It was the second year in a row, so I guess that it isn't that awful that I would never return. There are a couple of highlights. The kids loved the petting zoo. The pumpkin cannon is cool and the kids enjoyed the dragon show. Overall, the kids thought it was great. From a parents perspective, I thought it was extremely spendy for what you get. We went during an "early-bird" special of sort, so our admission was $5 per person versus the normal $7.50. Even at $5, I thought it was a little excessive. Once inside, they start to nickle and dime you a little. It's $2 to do a craft project, $2 to shoot corn cobs out of a small cannon. The food (as I would expect) is pricey, too. And all of this to pay $8 for an average size pumpkin... I saw that someone else mentioned shooting off the pumpkin cannon more than every 90 minutes, as it is most definitely the highlight of going. Overall, I just wish that it cost less...because it does have potential. read more

We took our four grandchildren and three of our adult children for a fun day. It was $12.00 per person to get in (no charge for the baby) it was a fun day, everyone who works there was very nice. We had a lot of fun in the corn maze. Yes, we paid $1.00 for a rubber duck for each of the kids, but they had so much fun hand pumping water to send the ducks down a tube. They played in the corn pit, jumped on the big pillow, and played on the jungle gym. We paid $5.00 for each of them to mine gems. It does seem like you are being nickel and dimed while there, but the kids had a blast. I was a little shocked by the $12.00 entrance fee, but thinking back on our time at Pinehaven, it was worth the price. We will go back. read more

I enjoyed it as a first timer. It was a fun first experience! And silly to say the vibes were great. Lol

One of the worst experiences of my life. We have brought a homeschool group two years in a row and this place has so many rules that they aren't clear about. Staff runs around yelling at you for just about everything. We had older children in our group as well as younger and some of the older responsible children were walking around the farm just looking at things maybe getting a pop from the vending machine etc and we were told we have broken too many rules and that we are not allowed to use the corn maze because they noticed we had unsupervised children. when we asked "you never told us children have to be absolutely supervised at all times?" (sorry I'm not holding the hand of my fourteen-year-old ) and we asked to explain "what exactly did you see our children doing that was wrong?" they couldn't give us any answers. I basically could write on for 5 pages about how rude, cranky, unfriendly the staff was. I don't understand why the owner is in the business of running a pumpkin farm for children. zero people skills. The kids in our group got yelled at for just about anything they did. you're not allowed to so much as pick up a stick or pine needle (seriously) if a child is seen climbing on a boulder they get in trouble. Please come visit any other Orchard or pumpkin patch in the St Croix Valley, but save your money and do not go to Pinehaven. read more

Had a great time with the kiddos. Had a tasty funnel cake and got pumpkins for $5 / each out of the pumpkin field! Great for a day out during the fall. read more

We were there on opening day this Fall. Everyone was very friendly and eager to please. There is so much to do. Our two year old had a blast. We will return next year. read more

One of the best pumpkin patches around! Wonderful playground for the children, petting zoo, ride on trikes/bikes, tractor ride, GIANT slide, hay mazes, and much much more. We have a blast every year. It's worth it to upgrade to the season pass if you think you'll go more than once. Save my by bringing your own picnic lunch/snacks. read more

Reading the other reviews, I'll be the first to agree it's a little pricey. There's five in my family including me so it was $50ish to get in, "lunch" was $30, and three pumkins, two caramel apples, and a bag of kettle corn was $30. That's $110 for mediocre food and average sized pumpkins. However, the kids loved it and that's what it's really all about, right? The petting zoo is great since they have all sorts of animals (goata, sheep, pigs, alpacas, minature ponies, mini donkeys, cows, peacocks, turkeys, chickens, ducks, etc. etc. etc.). There was an actual corn maze in addition to a hay bale maze and "orange fence" maze. There a a couple large slides made of irrigation pipes. A small apple orchard. And so on. This is the second time my family and I have been here and we've been to a few other farms/corn mazes and we still agree this is the best one in the area. Don't take I-35, take 65/Central Ave then Viking Ave since it was a much more scenic drive with the changes fall leaves. read more
