Hathaway Farm

Reviewed By KampingKitteh

Definitely one of the best corn mazes I’ve ever been to. My partner and I went in the late afternoon on a weekday, so we were the only ones in the maze. The farm is nestled into an incredible, breath takingly beautiful area. There’s a lot to do/see for couples, families, kids, etc., although some things like the petting zoo were closed due to COVID. You can see still see the animals though. To complete the maze, you can follow the clue stations in the maze, and/or use your phone to complete trivia questions (answers provide clues) and use the GPS tracker so you know where you are if you get turned around. The maze was well maintained with a couple surprises and can be challenging at times- we definitely got turned around a couple times which made it a lot more fun. This is a great place, and I would love to come back for the late night maze on Saturday night, I believe (open til 11pm). We were moving quick so we could get out of the maze before the maze closed down for the evening, and it still took us a little under 2 hours (if you use the app, it tracks your time, and, with your consent, adds you to a list of the fastest times!). I’d recommend getting there earlier in the day to enjoy everything the farm has to offer.
