Alpine Coaster at night
Alex W.

This was my first time riding an alpine coaster and it was such a fun time! It was $19/adult and we went around 9pm with no wait time. The mountain coaster is a must!!

A good stop. + Pricing structure. General admission includes the Skyride, giant swing, lookout tower, entertainment. They do not build the coaster price in. You may however gaze upon the coaster from the skyride and see it is something that you want to do, as we did, and add it on. + Miniature horses up top. + Staff all friendly + Nice crowd, no line cutting, mayhem seeking city types. + Gorgeous views.

I had an amazing time with my family I definitely recommend this place 10/10 The sky lyft was insane even a little scary for myself if your scared of heights I don't recommend but one of my favorite family attraction in the area

Everyone was so welcoming! The coaster is fantastic! Feeding the animals was a ton of fun for all the adults on our trip as well! Loved cuddling with Dozer the miniature highland cow!

Looking down to Gatlinburg

The ski lift will get your attention on the way up, feels like you're going almost straight up, the views from the lift are amazing. After getting up top there is plenty of views from multiple seating areas. Along with that, there are many trails and paths you can walk on. The Skybridge is fantastic. Close to 700' end to end with the highest point from the ground below is close to 150'. To add to the walk around the bride is a glass area to look down and just really see how far you are from the ground. It's fun just to watch many people change their stride, grab on the cable just a bit harder and slowly walk around the glass

This was my second time coming here to try the speciality menu and milkshakes. The prices were pretty extreme.. with military discount it was $86 for 2 people, This included chair lift to the top and one coaster ride. I also spent over $70 on food that was way overpriced. So some of the seasonal food/dessert is strictly on Friday and Saturdays and some after 5pm. So I am afraid of heights and they didn't say anything about them having a shuttle. I was freaking out, trying to close my eyes on the chair lift because it was very high and it kept stopping which made things worse. Once up there, there wasnt too too much stuff to do. There was a little shop, bbq booth, cafe/bakery, animals and a place you can walk up around to get a scenery view. The mexican corn is not mexican corn it was just corn with a drizzle of sour cream and paprika.. nothing mexican about it. The corn ball things were very good it was like jack cheese inside. The apple dessert was very tasty. I was told that the pizza was good. I had the smokehouse sandwich and it was tasty, just make sure you take a tums because you will be burping it up all day. I asked an employee if there was another way to get down because I wasn't going to ride the chair down again. The coaster was by far the best part, but only got 1 ride and it was about 5-6 minutes long. They need to work on their pricing big time.

We were in town celebrating our 3yro birthday. We visited the Ranch two days in a row for the coaster. There seemed to be lots of other add ons and experiences you can pay for additional fees. My toddler loved the coaster, most of the staff were friendly and welcoming. I love that if kids are the acceptable height, they can ride with an adult on the car. We enjoyed the coaster at night as well, though many of their lights need maintenance and are completely out. You will pay a premium, tourist price but it's comparable to other coasters in the area. A big take away is that a member of the crew boarding us on the coaster on our second visit made me and my daughter very uncomfortable. He continuously got in her face once strapped in trying to talk to her, calling her sweetie, princess, saying she's shy this that and another. When my husband had her in his car, he didn't say a word to her. He also wouldn't start the ride because he kept trying to get a reaction or something out of her. It was extremely creepy and uncomfortable. There was zero awareness of reading the room and being professional.

Mountain coaster

Great entertainment! Great bluegrass music! Loved the whip cracking show! So many sights to enjoy! Loved the mountain coaster!

Yvette A.

Such a great place to visit. The hayride was my favorite. Was given so much info regarding the animals. Bri our tour guide was amazing!!!!! Overall a great time and educational. Will be back!

Katie N.

This was a beautiful place and very well decorated but was definitely not worth the price. The food at the cafe was mid but expensive, there really wasn't a lot to do at the top besides one ride and walking up the viewing platform. There were few animals and we missed a few because they weren't advertised anywhere. Anakeesta is a better use of your time and money overall.

Taz D.

The SkyLand Ranch was a nice place. 3 adults and two children under 3 went. We enjoyed the SkyRide lift; and the kids both enjoyed petting the cow and taking pictures with the cow. My expectations were really high for this place of business; and I came back extremely disappointed. We had pictures done with the cow and my husband's Great Uncle's face was really dark in the picture. It didn't turn out well at all. So that money was basically wasted. The photographer should have noticed right away and asked if we could take his hat off or push it up higher to see his face clearer. I expected to have some kind of petting place for kids, but all I saw were animals in cages with water spraying on them and water to drink and that's it. No one was there tending to them. Then we went to the playground area for kids, and because it was a hot day, the kids couldn't really go down on the slides because it was really hot. My kids were too young to go on any other rides and they didn't really want to walk around anywhere. All in all, I most definitely would not come back here.

The best value attraction in the Smokies! It's incredibly fun at a great price. We love that you can go for 3 straight days.

Highly manufactured experience that seems like false advertising . It's advertised as an amusement park but....it's ..not. Here's my impression : some developer bought some hilly land and threw some poor animals up on said hill , laid some FAKE grass down and put up a store full of overpriced and low quality China produced goods and added some food trucks . This developer then expects you - the consumer - to pay to get up the hill either by chair lift or shuttle so that you can then buy their China products and highly processed , fast food . They say they have entertainment shows but we are literally sitting here now at 11:45 for an 11am "western show" that has yet to occur . Oh and none of the employees know why the 11am show hasn't happened . They say there's supposed to be live music . Nothing . The employees don't seem to be able to answer basic questions nor do they seem to enjoy being here. Also , the barn is closed and the few animals they have look depressed . They have the poor animals on fake grass and black tarps . Down by the mountain coaster loading area they have them on dirt/rocks with no shade and barely any grass. They do have a "mountain coaster." If you've never ridden one , basically riders sit in a cart, similar to a bobsled, that is attached to a fixed track. Mountain coasters use the natural elevation of the area and gravity to transport riders down the mountain. The mountain coaster was the only thing that was entertaining for our group . Buying a ticket up the hill does not get you access to the mountain coaster . It was an additional cost to ride it . They do take a photo of you mid ride on the mountain coaster but don't think of pulling your phone out to snap a pic of the proof in the gift shop . I noticed they had someone standing by the photos shaming anyone that had a cell phone out lol . I could not figure out the value in the price of admission because there does not seem to be anything to do once on the hill other than eat & shop . Make it make sense . The business seemed new so perhaps they will improve the experience . However , they should lower the admission price while they work out the kinks.

As great as the maze was the, the younger kids had more fun on the in ground trampoline, petting zoo, sitting on the tractors for pictures, the really cool rustic playground, ect. The kids will not run out of things to do. You can purchase simple lunches like hotdogs and burgers but they have outdoor grills so you can bring you own food. The people around us were roasting smores. The vibe was so upbeat and easy going. It is worth a drive from the tourist areas. There is everything down home and nothing commercial, as grand as it is. For $11. each, the kids can do anything they want, as long as they want and pick their own pumpkin. Getting close to Halloween, the pumpkins were a little picked over. But, this place is awesome. No price gouging. It is about 15 minutes from the heart of Pigeon Forge where Magic Quest is. Their facebook page gives more information than their website, along with pictures and videos: https://www.facebook.com/ballingerfarm/ It may be better to call ahead. We were prepared but didn't know they were only accepting cash and check at the time. It sounded like a temporary thing. Luckily, we had money on us. It could have been a bummer for those who didn't know. But, overall, there are not enough nice things to say about Ballinger Farm Corn Maze.

While there, we also did flower pounding to make a beautiful card and envelope (see photos). There was a covered area with tables where we were able to sit, eat snacks, and chat. I also noticed a fire-pit and I'd like to bring my grandkids, let them pick flowers, and then spend time relaxing with a picnic lunch or dinner and roast some marshmallows over the fire. The way it works is you scan the QR code, pick up a cup, fill with water, and grab cutters. You can walk up and down the aisles that have various flowers blooming and pick any you like. If you don't have time to pick, there is a grab and go bouquet in the stand. They are open dawn to dusk April - October. I attended a Christmas in July party this past weekend and we were asked to bring a gift from a local vendor. I brought a gift certificate. The person who opened it didn't want to tell anyone what it was for fear it would be stolen! She wanted it for herself.

They also advertise in all of the coupon books plastered all over for $5 off a single experience and $10 off a combined experience. So, I thought awesome! We get there yesterday, the girl behind the desk is not friendly AT ALL. Red flag one. Proceeds to tell us we cannot hold a monkey any longer because the "monkey handler" retired. Yet as I type this, this experience is STILL advertised all over their website, in person menu and flyers. Red flag two. We decided to go anyway because we had already drove out there and looked forward to it for a little under a year. We go to pay and we're then told you can't use the coupon. It's only good on about two things. Well, that should be specified on your coupon what two things it's good for. Not over 3/4 of your menu. Red flag three. Then it is advertised that you get free food cups and food to feed the animals so I figured that would be a decent trade off. Well, red flag four. Although that was true in essence, you get one little tear of lettuce leaf, 3 small squares of apple, and about 5 pieces of kibble (think dog food size kibble). You cannot feed the tortoise only the kangaroo and we were told they don't like kibble so feed it to the dog. The dog was adorable but to be honest, I didn't pay $20 to feed a dog. I can do that at home for free. So we got to feed the kangaroos an extremely small lettuce leaf and 3 of the tiniest chunks of apple. We were also given about a 2" piece of millet for the birds. And told if you drop it or they steal it then tough luck you will not receive another. We were given one little piece of kibble type thing for the monkey even though only two of us wanted to give him a treat, but we paid for five people. So anyways I felt like this was all together petty for what this experience advertises itself as. The last red flag came after we left. Both groups in our party realized we were charged $5 extra for paying with card (which is like 10%). We didn't do anything else on the farm that I can comment on, thank goodness. I will say, however, the gal who took us on the train was a nice gal and tried her best. And all of the animals were very sweet.
