Disclosure: I was provided tickets to Corn Cob Acres in exchange for an honest review!
Finding fun things to do with small kids during the fall is so much harder than summer. Thankfully if you are near Lancaster or vacationing this way, Corn Cob Acres can keep your kids and you busy for hours! Corn Cob Acres is the friendlier side of the world famous Field of Screams haunted attraction.
There are three themed areas inside Corn Cob Acres; the Barnyard, the Pumpkin Patch, and the Wild West. For one price, you get access to all of them. Tickets are $12.00 per person, $6.00 for grandparents and children under two are free. Parking is free and aplenty! There are so many fun things to do at Corn Cob Acres that I simply can not list them all. However if you read on, you will find some of my families favorites, like the free face painting!
You heard right- free face painting. Let’s be honest. Lots of outdoor places offer face painting, however there is always quite the fee associated with it. Not at Corn Cob, it is included with your ticket price and your little one can even get both cheeks painted!
My kids spent a ton of time in the corn bin. All it is is a farm-themed alternative to a sandbox, but my kids literally played in it for over an hour.
They also enjoyed the things they could ride on, like the pedal carts-
and the Animal Barrel train ride!
I was worried at first that Ethan was not going to have much fun because he is six, but I think that he had just as much fun as his younger siblings-
If not more!
My two and four year olds very favorite attraction was the Haystack Slide. They climbed up it and slid down over and over again!

This looks like a really fun place to go for the fall!! It reminds me of a place I go to every year called Weber’s Farm which is in my area in Baltimore Maryland. I take my almost 3 year old granddaughter there and she loves it and so do I. We are planning a trip in the next 2 weeks.
We live in Illinois which has alot of corn festivals. We enjoy going as a extended family with all nieces to orchards and the festivals, so the kids can ride hayracks and climb in mazes but the adults can shop!!
We are going to have to check this out!
this looks like a lot of fun…i have to see if i can find something like that close to where i live.
This looks like such a fun family event…I love all the things they offer to do. Everyone would have a good time…wish I lived closer
My 4 year old would love this! I probably would too! 😉
I enjoyed myself! My husband enjoyed the food. They had funnel cake! Need I say more?
That sounds like a fun family outing. I’m sure the kids had a great time.
The kids had a blast!!!
that looks so freakin fun and so season appropriate!! my kids would love to go here
My husbands family lives in PA. If we are ever that way I will keep it in mind. Looks like fun.
Looks like everyone had a great time! I like the haystack slide myself.
This place looks like a lot of fun to take the whole family. I sure would love to get the nieces and nephew to go down the Haystack slide. What a wonderful place to spend the day at.
Oh how I wish that we had something like this where I live in NY – we have a farm that the kids can pick pumpkins and walk a hay maze but nothing like the fun you had.
What a fun way to spend the day with the kids. It’s always good to do something outdoors.
I started reading this review thinking, wow, that’d be so fun if only it was somewhere near me. I had no idea you were in Lancaster! I’m in Lancaster County too! (Think antiques, haha.) So now that I know that this place is actually a feasible activity for our family, I’m totally excited to go there on a weekend! Thanks for the info. I moved here almost a year ago so I’m still finding all the family entertainment and this really helps!
I wish we had stuff like this in my city. This is something I would love to do with my family. It looks like a lot of fun. We don’t have a whole lot of fun things to do where I live. Thanks for sharing your experience here. If I lived closer we would definitely go.
This look like a great place to visit as a family, we all are kids at heart still anyway
