    Food, festival games, rides
    Jessica P.

    Absolutely a fall destination spot if you are looking for a full-day experience. I went on a weekend when everything was in full swing, and although I hesitated at the price, I understand it after spending the afternoon here. I wish the corn maze wasn't an extra charge though. There are a ton of activities for kids and even going without kids is fun. There are carnival rides and games, pies and donuts, cocktails and hot cider (everything is charged separately; don't plan on an inexpensive visit). They have a large gift shop area with a great variety of Halloween decor and home goods. There was live music and even a coven of dancing witches. There are lots of picnic tables under beautifully colored autumn trees for shade. The pumpkin area is large and there is a great selection, but I think it is worth noting that all the pumpkins have been pre-picked and washed. There is no tromping through muddy pumpkin fields to find them on the vines (which I really love doing so I was kinda bummed about that). The setup seems to be intended to enjoy the festivities first, then pick out a pumpkin and head to the car - pumpkins are not allowed to be carried around outside the pumpkin area (I assume to prevent mishaps and messes). If you head straight for the pumpkins, you'll be directed right back to the parking lot afterwards. Parking was easy and free, grassy field style, with an option to pay for a closer spot in the "vip section". This is NOT the place to come if you just want to buy a pumpkin! For just pumpkin-shopping, there is a farm stand just a block or two down the street that sells pumpkins. This place is about the experience.

    Fun for all ages! This place is an amazing must do in the fall. Rides, playground, pumpkin picking, all things Halloween on display and for sale. A bakery, cider, a full bar, live animals, picnic tables. Paid admission on the weekends but free weekdays. After dark they have the Haunted Forests, which is spooky hayrides and corn maze

    One of my personal favorites & fall season to-do must every year. I enjoy the wide selection of activities that are family friendly especially for my 3yr old, the delicious bakery & fresh donuts with cider, and I always pickup a new Halloween decor item to add to my collection each year. Personally I think they have the best selection of pumpkins that are very reasonably priced. My only mild complaint would be I wish they had all the kid activities free with the entrance fee - or at least cheaper like $1-$2 max. But this is only applies to a limited array of items, still highly recommend & will continue to visit each year.

    We always go to this place every year for its fall activities and have a great time! This year, we just picked a really bad day to go as it was rainy and cold but the place still did not disappoint. There's so much to do and is the perfect place to get all your halloween fun done!

    Great place to spend a fun day around WNY during Fall season. It was my first time going to a pumpkin farm and this place was great and tons of pumpkin. We went there for the holiday weekend and it was quite busy. There were a lot of shows and attractions going on. Started by visiting the pumpkin patch which was amazing and decorative then went to visit the corn maze which we had to find clues inside the maze to win a sticker. The maze was huge and fun to walk around beside being scared a couple of time by zombies and clowns inside the maze. After the maze we got foods from vendors which were tasty and filling. At the end we did the free hayride around the farm. Overall, this was a great first experience on a pumpkin farm. Will definitely come back next year to check out the corn maze design.

    I'm training my service dog and I brought him on a week day when it's free entry everything was closed the only thing open was the haunted house. I was able to show my service dog at a good distance the lamas they were far more interested in him more then he was of them he ignored them. Im in a wheelchair and it wasn't to bad for my chair to get around I got caught on some of the loose gravel but it was a new experience for my dogs training. The gift shop was a little pricey. It's definitely more fun on the weekends when everything is open

    A friend of mine suggested going to The Great Pumpkin Farm. Problem is, we don't have any children. Many of the activities included with your admission are for children. The hayride is now $5. A few years ago, when I last came to The Great Pumpkin Farm, it was included with admission. You have to basically pay for everything, plus admission, which I find off putting. I did get two small pumpkins, which amounted to $2.50, but really they cost me $12.50. Will I go back? I don't think I will ever return. There are many other places that offer activities for free, and aren't commercialized and money grabbing sites.

    Went to the Great Pumpkin Farm today for the Fair Food Festival Drive-thru (so I can't really speak for the pumpkin farm itself). Husband and I went around 2:30pm-ish (on a Sunday) and there were SO MANY CARS!!!! We waited in line for about an hour and a half until we got into the "ordering" section of the farm. There are two sections where your orders are taken by the workers there. The first section has kettle corn, fried dough, bloomin onions and fried oreos(? I think). The second section had the other foods like lemonade, grilled cheese, fries, fudge, etc. The worker comes up to your car, takes your order, takes your cash, and then comes back with change and your food. We got a bag of kettle corn, fried dough, fries, and a lemonade. The kettle corn was really good and the lemonade was refreshing (and not too sweet), but the fried dough and fries were a bit disappointing. Still and fun place to visit during the weekend. :)

It's the first and last venue we looked at; I knew immediately I wanted to marry the love of my life here. The entire staff is top tier; they pay attention to detail and make sure everything is perfect for your big day. The owners are the sweetest and purest people I've met. Marilyn and her daughter-in-law Mary made the process easy as heck for us. Sarah and Lisa were our day of coordinators and they were beyond amazing all day and night. They're all genuine people who love love, as most people do. If I could get married here every year, I would do it in a heartbeat. We're blessed by God to have met the people of Akron Acres who gave us a pinterest perfect wedding day.

    Everything I was looking for in fall activities!!…read more I came across this place on Yelp, through suggestions of friends looking for a place to pick pumpkins straight from the patch. It's one of the activities I enjoy doing most in the fall, and have grown disappointed with other farms as the years went by and their popularity skyrocketed. This place is fairly under the radar - a bit of a drive even past the attractions in Clarence, but I've grown to love Akron lately and so I (of course) didn't mind making the journey. In fact, I loved this place so much that I brought my family back here the very next day. Akron Acres is a part of the Kelkenberg farm family. I haven't been to their namesake farm, but if it's anything like Akron Acres I'm sure I would have an absolutely amazing time. Activities here during their fall season included a hayride out to the pumpkin patch, corn maze, and things like pony rides for the kids. The hayride is $12 and you're allowed to pick any pumpkin you want from the patch (even the biggest one you can't carry) - they also had combo ticket prices if you wanted to participate in some of the other activities here. Sadly we went during a wet and rainy weekend, so I had to miss out on the corn maze BUT the farm animals 10000% made up for my FOMO. Oh yes, there are dozens of farm animals roaming about! Most notably, we saw ponies, a large draft horse (not sure what breed they are? but they are HUGE), pigs, sheep, turkeys, chickens, and of course GOATS. There were also BABY GOATS and they were absolutely ADORABLE, one of them tried to eat my clothes. Made my life complete. You can also buy an assortment of other things while you're here, not just tickets for fun activities! They sell pumpkins and gourds if you don't feel like going out to the patch - they also have Indian corn and corn stalks, hay, among other things. There's a food stand that sells kettle corn, maple cotton candy, and candy apples. You can also shop a super cute country store here, with all sorts of goodies - I ended up buying a delicious smelling candle that they were burning in the store while I was there. Needless to say, there's a ton of really fun things to do while you're here, both for kids and adults. It's a bit less well known than some of the other pumpkin places in WNY, which is why I ended up liking it so much. Both days we went, it was pleasantly busy but not overly crowded. There is also "The Gathering Barn," which is where weddings are hosted - and from the pictures I've seen online, it sounds beautiful! All in all, we had such an amazing experience here that we're going to be back in November for their Christmas trees! Can't wait to return!!

    My review is not for the actual maze , but for the bounce houses and games for the little ones …read more I absolutely adore this place . Located on Niagara Falls Blvd in the Wheatfield area . I have driven by year after year and thought I really need to check it out . One year (maybe more ? )they were not there for the season and I was saddened , so when I saw them open , I made a point to get there . Upon entering you will see many blow up bounce houses. Sadly, the big tiger you can see from the road is "retired" but , man he is cool ! There is also a little track for kids to be able to drive kid cars around . I would say this is great for probably the 4-5 year olds , but flexible. There are many tables set up for "pumpkin tic tac toe" . I thought it was an adorable idea. There are food huts/vendors set up with the typical carnival offerings of kettle corn, cotton candy , soft pretzels etc. What I found fun , is that there is a whole second area that you have to walk a short way through a corn maze to get to . I had no idea it existed ! Here is where you will find some more great bounce attractions and game areas , blow up slides and even a kids zipline attraction . So much fun. My 2 1/2 yr old grandson had such a great time . I recommend this for the little ones , especially 2-6ish years old . You will have a great time watching them have a great time . Lastly , we paid I believe $12 for an armband(did not have to pay for adult bands) which allowed for all day access to all of the bounce houses, we also were able to get a mini pumpkin included in that price . It was well worth the price ! I believe you can purchase individual tickets , but much more cost effective to get the all day bracelet. Pack up your kids, or your grandkids , or even your friends kids , and go ! :)

Just a few notes on the Corn MAiZE - The MAiZE is segmented into three sections - Easy, Medium, and Hard. Be forewarned, I was stuck in the Medium section for 45 minutes. - Vendors: Kettle Corn and Beverages are available for purchase - There's a large MAP of the MAiZE posted at each entry. If you're inclined to cheat, do so willingly. - "Corn Cops" are strategically located within each MAiZE. If getting becomes boring, simply ask a Corn Cop for directions on how to get out! - WEAR BOOTS! The Corn Field is known to get extremely muddy. Sadly, my white Pumas did NOT survive the evening. - Time spent finding your way out of the 3 MAiZEs can vary between 30 minutes to never! - If you're afraid of the dark, the MAiZE is NOT for you. - The last MAiZE is the most difficult. My party and I simply gave up when we exited at the entrance. Simply put, the MAiZE is a great time to be had with a bunch of friends. Nothing beats getting lost in a Corn Field with 6 of your closest friends on an Autumn evening.

I called in advance to see what the U-pick varieties were for the date I was looking to go because all the varieties are not ready to be picked at once. This year they had an online reservation system set up due to the pandemic. $7 included parking and a small bag of non specialty apples. You could buy more u-pick or prepicked apples on site. When you arrive there is a super cute country store set up with pre picked apples, cider, baked goods, vegetables and other treats. Once you check in there are wagons you can use to lug apples or transport kids which was a nice bonus. The area is large but not too spread out so it's nice to take a family and kids can't go too far. The staff is helpful and knows a lot about their products. Delicious and fresh apples and very clean and well run place. The winery, Leonard Oakes Estates, next door also had outdoor seating. I think there was indoor as well if you wanted. $10 got you 3 generous tastings and an ample choice of charcuterie, nuts, etc. There were a lot of tasty wine and ciders to choose from. Overall a fun day with tons of yummy options to choose from.
