River K provided all the perks of a traditional farm-like pumpkin patch with tons of photo opportunities, and free admission! The location was perfect, less than 10 minutes from downtown but still supplied a countryside feel. The open area was vast and well-decorated for fall. There were plenty of fun Halloween themed boards with face cutouts for photos which had us all laughing. I wanted to give River K a higher rating but unfortunately the majority of pumpkins were beginning to go bad (9 days before Halloween) and my family could not find a carvable pumpkin. Additionally, the corn maze was a decent size but was not very challenging for the price of $7 to enter.

Went to check out and pay for the pumpkins and the staff was friendly. They even have ice cream and waters for sale. And if pumpkin picking wasn't enough, you can pay to go through the corn maze. Its only $5 per person. If you've never gone through a corn maze, you should as it is fun. Haven't been to theirs but I'm sure it's just as fun as others I've been to.

This 8 day leisurely drive to and from SF was beautiful and stopping at will and experiencing this farm in San Luis Obispo was so peaceful and fun. Open fields for acres, a beautiful calm in the air, no loud noise and no horns or city sounds, beautiful flowers in every color that greet you and make you smile; apples and then more gorgeous and delicious apples that you leisurely pick and place in the basket that fills up fast. A wonderful and warm Manager Olivia who lives in the area and loves what she does. A lovely store with Halloween Knick knacks and jars of honey and other delicious items.
