We did the hay ride, bounce pad, corn maze, and checked out the farm animals. The hay ride was beautiful, lots of fall foliage and a great view of the huge pumpkin patch. We also got to see the pumpkin cannon launch a pumpkin while on the hay ride which was my kids' favorite! The apple fritters were delicious, and so was the apple slushy I tried. It was crowded but not nearly as long of wait times and crowds as other nearby pumpkin patches. We will come here again for sure!

There was so much to do and so many pumpkins to choose from! You can use cash and card; when you have your final picks you can bring your wheelbarrow to a nice man in the field who counts up your total. We had a great time getting lost in the corn maze, riding the hayride, looking through goodies at the store and eating pumpkin cream cheese cookies! I would say this experience is priced fairly for what you get; be prepared to spend some money but know the quality of your experience and pumpkins will be HIGH!! Hope you have a fun time at the Pumpkin Hollow- I sure did!

I went to the barn restaurant side to grab a bite. Got the parmesan fries which were really well crisped, generously seasoned, and came as a huge portion. Some of the best fries I have had.

Between the various food trucks, fritter stand, and the food hall, Navarino Orchard offers plenty of food choices! I ended up buying a pint of apple cider from the general store and an apple cider donut from the donut truck behind the store (the general store only sells donuts in multi-packs, whereas you can buy single donuts from the truck) Tip: remember to bring cash as the donut truck *only* accepts cash! The apple cider was some of the best I've had! I'd return just to get more of that cider!

A local playground has more to offer. they say they have a slide- no one can find it. Their " playground" consists of old farm tubing put up on nails of straw. (mind you the kids can climb to the top of the straw and then want to jump off the top because there are no safety ropes. I get they want our money. Driving here and back to have unhappy kids after they were promised a strawberry festival and there wasn't even a strawberry in sight to even feed the kids. COMPLETE SCAM.

Super cute spot to kick start your fall! We randomly found them last year on a fall drive along…read moreroutes 5&20, and had to go back this year again. They have all kinds of pumpkins (edible heirlooms and traditional orange in all shapes and sizes), plus gourds and minis, mums, corn stalks and hay bales, perfect for decorating (and GREAT prices, at $7 for a full-sized hay bale and $20 for 4 gorgeous heirloom pumpkins). Last year I bought 4 heirlooms and used them inside for my seasonal display and they lasted through winter, at which point I processed them all for soup! For families, they have games and play areas, a corn maze, a petting zoo, rides, and an apple blaster where you shoot apples at targets (more fun than it probably sounds!). The apple blaster is also perfect for a friendly competition between friends... Inside they have lots of fall themed decorations available for purchase, plus food that includes fresh apple cider donuts (available as singles, 6 packs and dozens) and local cider, coffee, hot cocoa, fresh popcorn, chili dogs and cookies. We ate a chili dog (good sized red hot with a nice meaty chili and red bean topping), pumpkin coffee, 6 donuts and popcorn while walking around picking our pumpkins, and were very pleased with the taste, portions and quality. This place will be on our list of must-dos for years to come! Definitely recommended!

This was a much different experience than we had last year, and we definitely felt like it was a good value. Our only request would be to bring back the chickens and the cow, if/when feasible!

As for the fun activities: Pedal cars are at the top of the list & turned into a full on race for the kids The corn maze and tree maze were cleverly designed. Both fun and challenging enough. So many pumpkins to pick from & you can borrow one of the wagons near the entrance to tote your pumpkins/belongings around The animals were a hit with the younger kids. Super cute and well cared for. Tons of games, hoops, and activities to keep everyone busy. The café had great snacks and drinks when we needed a break The jump trampoline and zip lines added a burst of energy and adventure to our visit and a hit!!! There's truly something here for everyone from toddlers to grandparents. We left with full hearts (and a dozen donuts). Highly recommend spending a day here (they have season pass so check that out too) you'll leave with great memories and probably a sugar rush!!!

However, the woman at the front desk in the gift shop was rude. She was annoyed that we wanted to purchase a tree late in the day (we called to make sure it was OK to arrive at 4:30pm before we arrived). She made a comment about "the next time someone calls about coming in at 5pm I'm telling them no" right in front of us. We usually purchase items from the gift shop in addition to the tree but, after that encounter, we left without shopping (loss on their part as we normally spend $100-$200 in the gift shop). We'll have to consider whether or not we return next year for a tree or go somewhere else.
