Kick things off with a trip through an eight acre corn maze! This isn’t your typical corn maze, either. Designed by owner Rex Zenor, the maze doesn’t just take you through corn, but also includes a hunk of the woods in there, too.
If that’s too much for little ones, enjoy the smaller two-acre corn maze at this Hancock County attraction that’s just the right size.
Round things out with a hayride through the Christmas tree farm (and maybe even pick your Christmas tree out ahead of time, reserving it for the holiday season) or a stroll through the Haunted Loft, a new attraction at Piney Acres.
Made for slightly older kids (definitely over age 5), it’s a spooky trip through a mad scientist’s lair.
