We spent a gorgeous September afternoon at Chiles Peach Orchard, and it turned out to be a perfect…read moreday for apple picking. The staff greeted us with warm smiles and helpful tips, making the experience feel welcoming from the start. Their marketplace has a wide selection of apple varieties, most of them are ready for sampling. While wandering the rows, we stumbled upon a few new favorites--crisp, sweet, and just the right amount of tart. If you're looking for a family‑friendly outing with fresh fruit, friendly faces, and plenty of tasty discoveries, Chiles Peach Orchard is a must‑visit. Notes: This maybe not in their control - lantern flies were everywhere, they don't bite, but they are invasive bugs, be careful not to get hitchhikers. Also, they sometimes add an admission fee on specific picking days, so check their website beforehand to avoid surprises.

As summer was ending, we decided to stop by Chile's Peach Orchard…read more We were excited to try the peach soft serve and peach donuts. The soft serve was pretty good. It had some peach flavor, but honestly, nothing out of the ordinary. I was told the peach donuts were just all right, not as standout as others (apple cider donuts). What did stand out was the peach Bellini, which was really good, especially because it was such a hot day. We wanted to check out the peach orchard, but unfortunately, they had sold out for the day, so we weren't allowed to go. It was probably around two or three in the afternoon, so we were surprised they had shut down so early. We did enjoy the views and live music, which was really cool. Definitely check out their weekly events!

No one there. No hours posted. Guessing they just don't bother in the off season. Would be nice if…read morethey would make that clear on their website

YOU ARE HEROES OF THE WORLD! I am coming back here all year and every year as a tradition. Happy fall everyone! From Lauren

I had heard good things about their pumpkin patch last year and wanted to check it out this fall…read more The pumpkin patches I've visited in the past didn't have an entrance fee and $10 felt like a bit much to pay per person (especially for a 2 year old!) But now that we've been I think that the amount and variety of activities justifies the price. It's also nice that everything inside is included in the admission fee. My three kids had a blast exploring all of the grounds with various cute playground structures, swings, and slides. Several gardens, a tug of war station, a zip line, a small petting/feeding area, bunnies to watch, giant jenga and connect four - all generously spaced out with plenty of shaded areas and seating for parents and grandparents to relax. The corn maze is large but not TOO large. We took a photo of the maze map and were able to make our way out in 15 minutes (we took our stroller in without a problem). The tractor ride up to the pumpkin patch was a lot of fun for the kids and the views are very pretty. They did a great job of sanitizing in between rides as well. You can pick your pumpkins from the fields or from the store - both options are $0.50/lb). One thing I wouldn't recommend is their food. While very reasonably priced ($3.50 for hamburgers, $2 for hot dogs, and $2 for fries) the line was excessively long, the food took forever to arrive, and also wasn't very good. (Have you ever had over-fried funnel cake? So sad.) Next time we'll pack our own lunch. *just a note: this year due to COVID19 there are no pig races and no train rides

We drove two hours there, spent almost two hours enjoying the 80 degree weather in late October and…read moreexploring the orchard, then drove two hours back. The location was beautiful. Keep your camera handy! Pumpkins are large and $0.60/lb. Apples are $20 peck bag and $30 1/2 bushel bag. Picked pink ladies. Also had Arkansas black and gold rush. I suggest long clothes and bug spray...lots of flies, bees, ladybugs, other insects, and burs. Definitely full of nature. Our six year old complained of bug bites often. Adults were bit a few times but no marks or anything. The driveway was one lane leading to some stressful situations with speeders. There wasn't much information available about picking options, locations, etc., when we arrived. When we advised it was our first time and inquired about information, we got a basic 'these are the apple bag sizes and costs, pumpkins are down the road'. Other locations were very welcoming and informative. Who owned the farm. How long it had been there. How they grew their produce and stayed focused on quality and community, etc. But I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt that under normal circumstances, i.e., not in a pandemic, there would be more information, more staff, and possibly other activities. There weren't any apple picking tools, so we couldn't reach many of the best looking apples. We sat on the tailgate and ate our warm donuts. There weren't any tables, chairs or other snacks or food. Not sure if it's picnic friendly. Didn't see an apple washing station. There is a portable sink next to the portable toilets. Other than apples, pumpkins, and the store, there were some bunnies, billy goats, and donkeys with a $0.25 feed dispenser. Our LO always loves feeding the animals. They did not sell bottled water, and the hike up the hill to the pink ladies left us panting, so be sure to bring some! We enjoyed the time we spent simply picking apples and pumpkins, but our six year old asked repeatedly about other things to do.. The other small family farms we visited with hay bales to climb on, corn to play in, apple toss games, pumpkin painting, etc might have spoiled him a little. But he was content for almost two hours with just picking apples and pumpkins and an apple cider slushy. He was so excited he found a big pumpkin that he said it was the best pumpkin patch ever! It's a beautiful location for PYO APPLES AND PUMPKINS, which was hard to find. They also aren't charging any entry fees. If simply PYO is what you seek, you've found it. This may not be the place for a half day/all day family fall outing and picnic (at least not in 2020) but you could add in Skyline Drive or Natural Bridge or other areas activities to make a day of it. IMHO, try everything once, twice if you like it! I can't wait to read your reviews.

I love this place. It's where I pick blueberries and blackberries in the summer, and where I pick…read moreup bushels of already-picked peaches and apples. If you've had any of the blueberry, blackberry, or peach jam, or apple butter or apple sauce or apple cider jelly from me, well, this is where I get the fruit. The folks at the orchard are super helpful, and they have a good memory with regard to their customers and their preferences. And it's a sweet little place, too -- the views while picking fruit are just gorgeous. And the store carries preserves and other items, including fresh-pressed cider which is delicious. I cannot recommend them highly enough. And after you've spent a morning picking berries or picking up bushels of apples, swing by Woodruff's for a piece of pie on the way home. I tend to think of these two places in tandem, they've become that much of a habit for me.

The wine tasting was nice. With large parties you are given a flight to try. No need to stand in the tasting room. I liked several of the flavors. After the tasting we took a walk around the grounds taking in all the animals. Because it was winter, we didn't spend a lot of time in the lavender fields. We did however visit the lavender shop. I purchased a lavender honey spot and some delightful lemon crunch lavender ice cream. Overall staff were friendly. I would recommend this business for anyone in the area or visiting massanutten.

You really get to enjoy an immersive, interactive experience on the farm. There is something for everyone, from interactive gardens and live animals. The best for a cute little DIY wine tasting. You can bring your own charcuterie platters, which is what we did to go along with our tastings. They have tasting room called the Purple Wolf Vineyard where you can purchase your portable tastings, wine, beer and slushy flights . I would definitely return again, great place to host a cute birthday event, with your friends. They also have a really nice gift shop as well.
