    Live Oak Canyon Pumpkin Patch is the #1 largest pumpkin patch in SoCal and was established since 1980. The opening day was September 25, 2025 and the last day of this 2025 season is November 2, 2025. Our party recently came here to celebrate the last few weeks of the Halloween season. [Parking]: $20 onsite parking (cash or credit cards). [Admission]: Our party paid $25 per adult on Saturday, but price varies depending weekdays vs holidays - see the website for more details. [Tickets]: Most of the highlighted rides/games require ADDITIONAL tickets. Tickets packages = 45 tickets for $40, 120 tickets for $100, or 20 tickets for $20. The staff will issue a card with a QR code and the card will be used to deduct ticket counts for each activity. *** Activities Our Party Did *** Personally the top three activities to do here are the following - free photo ops, train ride (with a stop at the Sunflower Fields), corn maze, and pumpkin/apple blasters. [Photo ops - free]: Take lovely couple or family pictures at Big Rocking Chair, Pumpkin Houses, Tractors, etc. [Big Train - 7 tickets per person]: The Disney-like train will take passengers through various fields and make a quick stop at the Sunflower Fields (10-minute ride to the field). Passengers can get off the train and take pictures & hang around at the Sunflower Fields. Don't worry - passengers can stay & wait until the arrival of the next train (trains arrive in 7 - 8 minute intervals). Definitely worth a ride! [Corn Maze - entry closes 1-hour prior to farm closing; 8 tickets per person]: The maze wasn't designed to confuse visitors so everyone should be able to exit the maze as long as they stay on paths. Not as interesting as Big Brain, but worth check it out. [Pumpkin Blasters (9 tickets for 3 shots) / Apple Blasters (9 tickets for 5 shots)]: It was actually quite fun to shoot a giant pumpkin out of these blasters. I HIGHLY recommend getting pumpkins instead of apples because apples = smaller mass = less acceleration = less impact. To load a pumpkin into the blaster, make sure to pull back the handle or lever to load it or else nothing will come out of the blaster. Highly recommended! [Tractor Hay Ride - entry closes 1-hour prior to sunset; 5 tickets per person]: Very bumpy ride and it was not exactly comfortable. *** Other Activities *** The U-Pick Pumpkin Fields, Petting Zoo (largest in Southern California), carnival rides, inflatables, fair games, The Singing Chicken Show, The Banjo Boys Show, Live Entertainment (weekends only), Face Painting (Fri-Sun only), etc. [Conclusion]: Our party arrived at 2:45 PM and left at 5:30 PM. Not a fan of the farm map and our party had a slight issue figuring out locations for certain activities. Overall our party had a fun experience but had to pay an extra $$$ to do certain key activities here. Personally it is an one-and-done experience but worth to stop for the 1st time visitors. P.S. - They have camel rides for anyone who's interested!

    This was my second year attending and honestly it just seems very overpriced now. Although there are many wonderful attractions, carnival foods, and rides there is a fee for everything a fee for the corn maze was so disappointing when i spoke to friends about other pumpkin patches were the admission price included that (and if I remember correctly so did last year's ticket) it changed my perspective on the place. I think next year I would attend another pumpkin patch. My favorite part were the dinosaurs in the pumpkins.

    Free parking with shuttle, just paying $25 for entrance fee and then if you want to do activities and eat then that is separate to pay. I enjoyed shooting apples and pumpkins, as that was the highlight for me, that was also probably the longest wait for us at 30 minutes. They had camel riding, bow/arrow, cornmaze, petting zoo and so much more activities for all ages.

    Daisies for days!

    This little pumpkin farm is a fun and happy destination for children or the kid in YOU. There's a train, carnival rides, games, a petting zoo, farmyard decor, and of course you can buy pumpkins and gourds. The gift shop is very cool, and has a lot of unique items. I would argue they have one of the most BEAUTIFUL collections of native flowers in Southern California. Their, 'look - don't touch' policy keeps the gardens vibrant and ALIVE with bees, hummingbirds, sparrows, and a wide variety of pollinating insects and butterflies. A walk through the gardens puts you in another world entirely. There are tons of food and beverage options, with county fair-like food and snack offerings. The employees are friendly and professional. We go every year, but 2025 is by far their best showing yet!

    Fun Fall Day at Live Oak Canyon Farm If you're looking for a fun fall getaway, this place is a must-visit! There's so much to see and do -- from pumpkin picking, rides, food stalls, games, and even photo spots everywhere. We went a bit late in the day, so we didn't get to explore all the activities, but it was still such a great experience. Tip: Go early so you can enjoy more of the attractions and avoid long lines. Perfect for families, couples, or anyone who loves the fall season vibes! Location: Live Oak Canyon Farm, Redlands, CA Parking: Available (some days free, weekends may have a fee)

    I've been here during pumpkin season, many times and this past year was the first time I've been during Christmas time. The pumpkin season seems to be way more busy. Obviously they are going to have different vibes and different feelings. They both always have good, rides, games, fun, and so many picture options. Perfect for the kids or perfect for a date! Christmas tree farm: They have such cute Christmas lights, so so many different places for photos. Bring that professional camera and get those pictures taken!! Such a perfect spot for it. They have Christmas music playing, fires you can sit around, warm drinks, ice skating, and the train ride! We did the train ride and it is so worth it! It's so cute! It was pretty cold but so worth it. And you can also get your Christmas tree here! During Christmas it is free to park and free to get in. Pumpkin patch: This is more of a fall vibe! They have pumpkins galore!! They still have all the carnival rides. They have the train ride as well. You do have to pay to get in during fall. They still have so many picture opportunities here too! The prices: We always eat before or after coming here, and we just get a drink and something from the little shop at the front. We always do the train too. They have fair food, it's not going to be so cheap. This is not a chain. This is their business. During Christmas it's free to get in and free to park. They need to be able to pay their employees. Stuff is expensive now. That goes for everything. It's so cool they do Christmas for free!

    Don't get me wrong, this is THEE pumpkin patch. They got everything right- photo ops, pumpkins, food, games, carnival rides, mazes, a cute lil spooky train ride.. if you go to a pumpkin patch THIS IS THE ONE. Note: it's expensive! I saved by going on a day where kids were free entrance. I still spent $100 for 120 tickets and with three kids at 3-7 tickets per ride.. OUCH. Food is normal pricey for carnival. Service is pretty great, a mix of young and old. Still, I was not expecting to be out $200 for a night of fun... And we didn't buy the pumpkins because they were expensive, lol. Really wish they'd adjust their pricing next year, so many more people can come and enjoy the fun, considering it is already a far drive out.

    INCREDIBLY RUDE STAFF!! I grew up coming here and have gone almost every year at Christmas time, however, I no longer go during pumpkin season because it's way too crowded. I decided to take my niece and nephew to ice skate since the price seemed fair and they had a buy one get one free wristband deal. When you buy your tickets and wristband, they don't tell you the process of getting separate tickets for picking up your skates inside the tent, so I went up to the ice-skating tent and joined the long line coming out of it. The person going through the line checking if the waivers were completed was friendly and told me that I needed to go grab tickets from inside the tent so I could get our ice skates once we reached the front of the line. I told my niece and nephew to continue waiting in that line while I ran inside to grab the tickets. The woman I interacted with at the booth was incredibly rude and just seemed miserable, she wore glasses and had blonde hair in a ponytail but I didn't catch her name. I let her know that we already checked in with the waiver person outside, and that she had told me to come in to grab our tickets since we already had our hands stamped and the waiver checked. This ticket woman proceeded to scan my card because I was just there for ice-skating ( I didn't get a wristband, just 10 tickets to skate) while my niece and nephew had wristbands. She proceeded to scan my card and said there were only 10 tickets available and that I needed 30, when I then reminded her that I was only using tickets for myself and my niece and nephew had wristbands which included ice-skating. She then very rudely told me to go back outside and get tickets from the person checking the waivers in line because she needed to see the people wearing the wristbands. I understand because I know there are probably dishonest people that try to get in for free, but when one employee tells me I can just run in to grab the tickets I don't know why another employee refuses to do that and is extremely disrespectful in the process . I then went back outside to the original person who then only gave me tickets for the kids and then told me to go back inside to get the ticket for myself. Just a few minutes after I tried to get the tickets the first time, I went back inside and was helped by a different girl. She proceeded to scan my ticket card and said it was empty and I didn't have enough tickets to ice skate. I told her the woman next to her just scanned it a couple minutes ago and I'm assuming it took the tickets off the card, so it was now showing it was empty. She then looked to the other woman (the one with a ponytail who was very rude the first time) and asked if she had remembered scanning my card, and the woman in a snarky voice said "I don't remember! I have seen over 600 ice skaters today!" This new girl who was helping me reluctantly gave me my ticket and she seemed hesitant to give it to me as if I was trying to get in for free. I stated I was in there at the most 2 minutes before and i didn't understand how the other woman couldn't remember our interaction. This whole process was so unorganized and the ice-skating rink was crammed full of people. I only went around once with my nephew when we decided to just go on some rides instead. Though this place looks fun on the outside, the process of getting tickets and getting inside for ice skating took well over 45 minutes when it didn't need to be this complicated. They could also do this with a smile on their face because kindness is free. I understand it is stressful working with crowds but when someone is rude for no reason at all, it just kind of ruins the whole experience. If they know that you're there to ice skate I feel they should give you the tickets to get your skates when you are buying your wristband or ticket in the first place. The people who were running the rides were amazing and very friendly. I just wish those who were helping with the ice-skating had the same attitude!! Minus the girl outside the tent, she was nice and I felt she was a bit frustrated with the process as well.

    Closed off some of the patch during Dias Los Muertos event.
    May W.

    Came here during their first Dia de los Muertos event: Tickets: You aren't able to buy online. You can only buy tickets when you're at the location. Parking: Free! They have a parking lot right at the location. But I think they also have another parking lot about 3-4 min drive away, it might be designated when their main parking lot gets filled. So cute. I would say it's a great place to come with your family and kids! About 95% of the rides are catered to children, but they're not included in the admission ticket. You would need to pay for tickets to go on the rides (trolley, game booths, food booths?, feeding farm animals). I would say Live Oak Canyon does have one of the bigger pumpkin patches in Southern California. There's a quiet garden maze with several picturesque setups. Usually will take about 1-1.5 hrs to complete if you're only there to look and take pictures. Warning: If you come towards the last week of the pumpkin patch they will close off 25% of the fair (pumpkin blaster game booth, corn maze, and U-pick pumpkin field). Their gift shop was also closed. I was looking forward to walk through their corn maze and play the pumpkin shooting game but they did not list these activities to be closed on their website. Their website was vague about what was included and what would be closed. Honestly, a little bit disappointed, if you're coming with a plus one. Practically charged a $30 admission to walk and take pictures. I feel that buying 123 Lavender Farms tickets would be more worth it if you wanted to take pictures, walk around, try special curated food/drinks, and shop around.

    Second time back in 9 years, because the extreme prices keep us away! Nonetheless, there is lots to do, similar to county fairs- you pay for entrance, pay for food, pay for rides, pay for activities or go for the endless photo ops. It definitely isn't budget friendly, but what is nowadays? We chose to go for the corn maze, it's huge and fun to walk around/get lost for awhile. During our weekday visit, there wasn't too much of a crowd except for the entrance to buy tickets and going through their single metal detector/bag check, so plan accordingly.

    This was a nice little Christmas park up north. I heard the pumpkin patch is huge and the big deal but this Christmas set up wasn't bad. I don't know if I would go out of my way to come up here but being in the area, it was good to stop by and check out. They had rides and games and tons of Christmas theme activities. They did have a ice skating rink which was really cool. The customer service wasn't great. Everyone working there seemed mad and didn't want to be there and seemed frustrated with people. Parking was a mess and in the dirt and not well organized or clear. Prices were high for everything. Besides that, it was nice to see all the lights and stuff and the ice rink.

There is plenty of dirt parking spaces and several handicap spaces right up front. We have come here for many years and it never disappoints! You'll be warmly welcomed at the entrance where you can register to be sent a discount and US mailed reminder for next year's tree. There is Christmas music playing as you go get your tree cart and saw. Yes, I said saw, you get to cut down your very own tree that you picked out. There are many trees of all sizes which have all been nicely manicured. The pine scent in the area is so wonderful especially when you cut yours down! We usually look for a 6-7 foot tree with a tapered design with a wide bottom to a narrow top and a straight trunk which is the look of most of the trees. Their trees vary in prices and I believe they run approximately $13 per foot. Before you head out to pick out your tree you can visit and take your photos with an awesome Santa, props of snowman and gingerbread men with a cutout space for your smiling face. Then you can mosey over to the vendors and dessert food trucks with yummy treats. The farm has free popcorn and coffee and you can purchase a hot chocolate with marshmallows on top! Now you are primed and ready to get your tree so you take your tree cart and saw and head out. Now if you are not able or interested in cutting your tree down there many helpers around that can do it for you. I enjoy watching my grandkids help us pick out that perfect tree and take turns sawing it down. We load the tree on our cart and head back to pay for our beautiful tree. For a small fee there is also tree shakers to get those dead pine needles out and netting to protect your tree on your trip home. If you'd like there are many helpers around to help load your tree up and secure it. If you're interested in a happy place to bring your family and start an annual tradition Sand Haven Pines is the perfect place.

    It's always a great time with the kids to come out and find our Christmas tree. Cutting it down as…read morewell is a awsome experience the kids look forward to every year.

To the manager I just yelled at, who played dumb about what happened, I do NOT apologize.
