    We were visiting family last minute and they already had tickets to come, so we decided to join them with our toddler. If you book early to can get tickets for like only $16, so that's a great deal! We paid more...I think like $25 which is kind of expensive. There's free parking thankfully! Children 2 and under are free. There's a lot of activities for the kids. I think 5 years old is a sweet spot for coming here. There's several activities that you need to 40 inches for like the giant show. One of the rides you need to be 45 inches for which seems crazy. It was a small swing. Our nephew who is 5 wasn't tall enough for the one, but he was for the giant slide that does a jump. You actually get a little air, so it looks pretty scary for little ones. Little ones also have to be able to carry their own tube up the stairs which would be hard. There's a little train ride, a tractor hay ride, giant bouncing pillows, a ferris wheels, 3 mazes, a mini rollercoaster, pedal-powered cars, giant tubing slide, slides and a playground. In December, there's also Santa and Mrs Claus that you can snap photos with. We had a nice family outing here. It's also a winery and you can buy glasses or a bottle on site. Tip: Get the bottle! A bottle is either $22 or $28 depending on the kind, but all glasses are $10.75, so you might as well get the bottle. There's a couple of activities inside like face painting or ornament painting that cost extra. Be prepared to spend plenty of hours here to do all the activities. Some of the activities are up a hill, so wear good walking shoes. Pack snacks, lunch and drinks.

    Loved all the activities! So much inclined in the stay. They decorate so beautifully. Giving 4 stars because the price point is a little too high for comfort but other than that it was amazing!

    SO MUCH FUN FOR THE FAMILY! Attractions include: Bounce platform Tubing hill 3 story tree house Mazes Baby zip-line Roller coaster Hay ride Train ride Tricycle track (with bikes for all ages) Petting/feeding goats Rubber duck races Sheep races And a lot more, ALL INCLUDED FOR THE PRICE OF ADMISSION! The only things I saw that cost extra were Apple shooting, the food for the goats, food/drink for you, and anything purchased in the gift shop. We bought our tickets during a flash sale a month before the farm opened for pumpkin days, so they were $13.65ea including the convenience fee. Normally tickets are closer to $20 online (2 and under free). $20 is pretty steep, especially if you have a large family like ours, so I would make a point of watching out for those presale tickets. Food inside the farm is also a little pricey, so we packed a picnic dinner. The farm is probably best enjoyed by kids in the 2-10 age range. I did see a few couples without children and quite a large number of couples with infant children, but I don't see how it could possibly been very fun for them. Infants are too young to enjoy hayrides and adults only benefit from tricycle courses when they're watching their child race on them. Kids over 10 will likely find everything but the tubing hill boring. The farm is BEAUTIFUL, by the way. Wish I had gotten more pictures of the landscape. As for timing, plan to spend all day! We arrived on a Saturday at 2pm and left when it closed at 8pm. If we had gotten there earlier, we definitely could have spent more time. The fun never seemed to end for my kids. Assuming we can snag another half off ticket price deal, we will absolutely be there again next year.

    We were so excited to come and get our Christmas tree at Mainstay Farm since the kids started asking after their field trip. It's for sure a substantial drive, but I thought it would be worth it. I scoured the website and it says "In 2022 you can choose-&-cut a tree ANYtime we are open during our Christmas season!" What they fail to mention is that it would cost nearly $150 for our family of 5 to simply enter the farm, which is required in order to purchase a tree. I was willing to pay for the tree, which I assume is a large amount to begin with, but this is too much. They need to either make it crystal clear on their website you must buy a ticket before buying a tree, or offer pre-cut trees to buy in the store.

    Go early because it starts to fill up about 1pm. The food was mediocre but the kids had a blast on all of the available activities. I have a 6 and a 2 yr old and both were entertained the whole day.

    Entrance line was super long, it did love fast so it wasn't too big of a deal. Just foreshadowing for the rest of the day.

    I know a lot of people have a great time out here so maybe it just wasn't for us. But let me explain my experience and you be the judge from there. First thing that really irked me. $70 after fees for me and my three year old. Let me repeat that. $70. He was not even tall enough for some of the attractions , he could barely work the pedal cars and when he went to the hay, some bigger kids were throwing handfuls into the air where the wind caught it and got into everyone's eyes. Second, the LINES. They sell way too many tickets for the amount of things they have to do which leaves guests waiting in lines for hours. We got in the face painting line and stood in it for 20 minutes without it moving (picture below) so we left. We did the hayride and that was pretty underwhelming as well. I was expecting some Halloween decorations along the trail or SOMETHING to look at, but instead was met with some bible scriptures by the driver The rides are so old and dilapidated; as much as they charge per guest there is no reason they can't have a better ride selection and better terrain for the guests. I saw so many parents struggling with strollers across rocks and sand and my three year old was constantly tripping. This next part is not the parks fault, but still something that needs to be shared with people interested in attending. We went on a day with really high wind gusts. This place is built on a sand pit basically. So with every wind gust, we were hit in the face with flying sand/dirt. We spent most of the day blinking sand out of our eyes and left the farm COVERED in sand. It was awful so check the forecast before heading out. Really, if it was more reasonably priced, I probably wouldn't have reviewed at all. It's really the fact that I looked around at a place that probably pulled in $60000 this weekend just in admission prices, had to pay $12 for a plastic water bottle with ice water, $13 for two cotton candys, and couldn't do most of the attractions because of the insanely long lines. This place has potential but it's def not immune to the corporate greed that is the entertainment industry.

    Definitely for kids. Not much for adults. I thought the "market" would be a little larger but it was just a store. They have a lot of photo op areas which is cute. But the place itself looks like it could use a little TLC.

    We had a super visit. Ordered tickets on line, spent about 4 great hours exploring. Took my 7 year old and 17 year old with girlfriend. We all had a blast . Price is worth it, great value. Food was awesome and fast - enjoyed a burger and nachos. Really good quality ( I own. Restaurant too) We purchased a bottle of wine made on property. Enjoyed every attraction, included in the price. I participated as well. We also purchased a 9' tree. We will be regulars for sure. Had a chance to visit with owners as we ate, super sweet, focused on a quality experience and it shows. Go you will love it.

    Only go if you have kids who can walk and don't require a stroller. We couldn't do half of the things because the terrain was too rough to go up the gravel hill. Little pricey if you can't enjoy everything but hey it was our first time so we didn't know. Maybe next year will be better for us. Weekend Tip: Get there by 11AM at the latest. We left around 12:30 and the parking lot was overflowing on a Saturday during pumpkin days. Lines for food and rides were really long and it got crowded in the photo areas which is what we mostly came for. They do allow for re-entry if you're a frugal family who needs to save money on food, enjoy it from your car then go back in. At $20/person for a large family I totally understand. You can definitely spend the day here with kids if they're old enough to do all of the activities.

    See all

Inside did not disappoint, with lots of detail and open spaces for wedding ceremonies and receptions to be held. There is a "man cave" in the basement for the groomsmen and second floor space for the bride and her ladies. An elevator makes traveling between floors a cinch. There is a beautiful pool and ceremony room, which has a wall of glass that allows for views of the property, trees, and barn in the background. Reasons for not offering 5 stars would be the seemingly inexperienced and somewhat inattentive staff and the extremely cold reception space. Many guests were clearly cold (it was a wet winter day with cool temperature) and it felt quite chilly in the space. The staff were friendly however did not seem to go out of their way to check in with guests. You had to flag down the servers for a passed appetizer, instead of being offered one. Hopefully these issues can be improved upon to improve the guest experience and make the wedding couple feel pampered and stress free on their big day.

The accommodations were clean, amazing large rooms and comfy beds! Our a/c was fantastic and did a great job keeping the room cold, even in the heat of the day. The park offers so many fun activities that the kids never get bored! We always stay an extra day so that we can spend quality time with the kids and try to do as many of the activities as possible. This year they had two new attractions - the snowless snowboarding and I can't remember the name of the other one, but they were awesome! They also have employees who specialize in helping organize large groups with their accommodations. We have had the same person helping our family for going on 5 years now. Her name is Darla and she is our "hero" when it comes to Jellystone! Honestly, she is the reason we always vote to come back year after year. At the previous place that we held our reunion for over 15 years, they sold and we became just a number to them. Darla has treated us as family from day one. Always so thorough and pays such close attention to details. Jellystone sure has a secret gem with her! We will be back in 2027 for another memory making weekend! Thanks Jellystone!

    This used to be one of our favorite places to visit for a close to home stay. This last visit was…read morethe absolute worst! My family has stayed at Jellystone many times over the years. The park and its hospitality is a fraction of what it used to be. 1. They are NOT maintaining facilities like the used to. The bed in the newer grain bin 561 was hard as a rock. I emailed them at 3am and asked someone to call first thing in the morning that didn't happen. When I went down to the office the Assistant Manager informed me of how busy she was. I told her we lived locally and wanted to check out early as the accommodations were not as they have been in the past. She said she could not refund or partial refund so a manager needed to call me. I gave her my number and the manager still called my husband who was not with us and did not get back to me in the timeline discussed. The manager said this was my fault because I didn't work with them. Ma'am, I waited hours for your team to contact me and be proactive they didn't. I don't work for you. The manager also mentioned that she had not received other reviews about uncomfortable beds. There is literally one on Google from last week that they responded to. She also told me they don't do refunds but she would offer me a $350 credit despite all the issues reported. $350 on $1000 waisted! Despite setting the ac to 66 the room never got cold. I would say 72 at best that's being generous I'm usually cold at 71. It was never cold. Even sleeping with the sheet felt hot. We paid $1000 and change for 2 nights, one of which we did not stay due to the poor facilities and service. 2. They now require your photo id AND a picture of you. I just handed you my government issued photo id I'm declining an additional photo. She said well we have to make sure it's you. In other words we are taking your photo comparing it to your id with a software or ai of some sort. That is the capturing and storing of my personal biometric data. No. The lady insisted it was their policy. I said well you will need to check me in or refund me. 3. We were there with family who rented 3 cabins, all the cabins and the silo smelled weird. Driving around cabins had holes in them. It was just an eyesore to look at. 4. Most of the activities that used to be available first thing were not available until 10 or after. Kids are there on vacation, they are not sleeping in, they want to have fun. Used to you could wake up and go to the activities barn. No it's closed until 10. No mini golf until 10. Pool 10. Water park 11. The times for most things being open are not well posted. This is new, it's not always been this way and should be better communicated. There was a serious lack of communication and planning on the park's end. The jump pillow is no longer covered. So it's useable for a couple hours in the morning and evening. It looks like y'all poured your money into the new attractions and didn't maintain facilities or the staff to keep areas open for there to be a variety of things to do. They finally refunded me $450.
