We got the passes that gave us entry to all the museums. We made it to Farm Country, the Butterfly Biosphere, Museum of Ancient Life, and Museum of Natural Curiosity. Our kids, ages, 14, 12, 9, 9, 9, all said it was the best day of our family vacation, which is high praise since we also did Lagoon and Hogle Zoo in the last few days! Each museum was just the right size to enjoy without being overwhelmed. The Museum of Ancient Life (Dinosaur Museum) had world class exhibits. My 14 year old was engaged the entire time. Definitely worth the $!

I love coming to Megaplex Theaters, Aside from the fact that they have all the great movies and nice fresh popcorn, now they have Sweet potato fries and I love it. Make it a perfect movie experience by getting the luxury recliners and an Ice cold drink and that's a perfect movie experience.

Wow! You are greeted by a large dinosaur, that had a tough life. I was greeted with warmth and a genuine hello. They gave me a map. Definitely use the map or you can get turned around pretty easily. Wear comfortable shoes; I spent 3 ½ hours and could have stayed longer. So much great information and new findings. There are some fun hands on areas for kids to have fun, but also learn. Would I go back - YES!

Cornbelly's Corn Maze & Pumpkin Fest

Reviewed By dorian_traveller

Caveat - This place is great IF you have kids and are able to get a discounted ticket. I've never actually paid full price for a ticket - I can usually find a friend or a discount or get myself a season pass. I love coming here every year because it just FEELS like Fall! There are hundreds of little things to do and every year they add more. The corn maze used to be the main attraction, but I don't think many people even do it anymore, which is not a big loss because the corn doesn't grow very thick or very tall. But this place is a little peace of heaven for kids of all ages. There is SO much for kids to do here: slides, activities, a kid 'village' with make-believe items, crazy 'fun' houses, magic shows, dog shows, pig races, bouncing, obstacle courses, playsets, lawn games, petting zoo, and the list just keeps growing every year. TIP if you are coming only once and paying full price: Come EARLY in the season while things are still relatively fresh. Show up at opening time on Saturday morning (before there are any crowds) and enjoy all the activities for the kids at the beginning of the day - you will practically have the place to yourself and there won't be any lines. Especially if you go to the back of the park first and then work your way forward toward kiddie-land. This is also your best time to sample any of the food items you want to taste. (Apple-Cider Donuts... yum...) When you have played to your heart's content, take the kids home for a nap (you, too!). Grab dinner before returning, or plan to wait in a long, slow line. Be prepared for crowds at night if you come back to do the haunted items. If you plan to do the maze, it's definitely better in the dark. Also, catch some fireworks if you like (only on weekends).
