Pettit Creek Farms

Wish I could give no stars what a joke. Drove 45 minutes and paid $ 36 for 3 people to ride the hay ride to see the lights. Waited in line to get on then sat locked on the trailer for 30 minutes waiting for the driver. Would be nice if there was some communication but not until we went to talk to the very young kid getting everyone on that we were told that the driver was MIA and not answering his phone. We all asked to get off and were quite upset and had a very squirmy 2 year old. We were directed to the people taking the money to request a refund. They were not willing to listen or do anything stating that they «didn’t know», while they were sitting kicked back by the fire. They said the driver was coming now, well thanks for nothing it was too late. I was told there was no one higher I could talk to, well ma’am if you are in charge you should know if two full trailers of people are sitting stuck with no communication and teach your staff how to communicate with each other and more importantly with the public. Needless to say we have no interest of returning and definitely feel we deserve a refund. Left a message on the recording I was directed to, we’ll see if they have the curtesy to call me back. Sadly I doubt it but I will let you know.
Update ¹²⁄₂₇. Nope… They haven’t had the courtesy to call yet. Figured.

My fiancé and I visited in October for the first time & I love love love it. They have tons for various animals and a pumpkin patch w a hay ride! We had a blast and we don’t even have kids! Definitely a must! I wanna go back for the Christmas lights!

Corn maze was awful, the corn was so thinned out and dead, you could see right through to the other side, it wasn’t a maze at all. The petting zoo was ok, but it was small. My kids are 11 & 14, too old for the inflatables, and aside from the short and boring hay ride, there isn’t much else to do.
And the pumpkin patch — I had my daughter pick out a pumpkin in what the worker said was the $ 10 section, and then he watches her pick it up and bring it over and says «oh. that one’s $ 12» Really? What a scam. No thanks.
It was a waste of time and money. Luckily I bought it through Groupon and didn’t pay full price. If I paid full price, I would be really upset. As it was, we paid $ 35 for 4 of us to walk through dead corn, feed a couple llamas, and ride a short and boring hayride.

Not at all impressed. felt like a waste of my time and money. just a disorganized mess or lack of events and things to do. i just expected for the amount of money it cost for it to hv been more. the fact that they only hv 1 concession for this place is ridiculous. wish I had just picked a better place to hv an outing wth my family. would hv gladly spent the extra money for something better

We came here for the corn maze. What maze? It was all dead. There’s some fun entertainment for kids maybe but we left pretty much 10 mins after arriving. And that was AFTER we made it through the difficult maze. Ha! Awful.

Only getting two stars because we got a deal using groupon. The «corn maze» was more of a corn walk around the block. No maze element at all. You could see everyone else in the «maze» because the corn was so thinned out. My kids are a little older and found this place as boring as I did. The hay ride was lame. The only fun part was that the animals came over to get snacks when you would stop. It’s too bad that only one side of the hay ride gets to be near the animals. If you sat on the wrong side you were out of luck. After driving around the piles of bricks, broken bounce houses and broken down old farm equipment it was time to go. There were speakers for the driver to say something fun but that didn’t happen. If you have little kids, they might have fun but anyone over 5 is going to be disappointed.

Over priced, the animals look malnourished and my sister in laws daughter fell of one of the horses because the saddle was not properly put on. In addition the owner got on the intercom and said two cars were parked in the middle of the road and he was going to tow them. There were no signs to indicate that parking was not allowed there and the people whose car was parked there were on a overpriced hayride and couldn’t here his rant. Save your money and patience for another place. I had to put a star to post but I would give it zero stars! Cagles is much more organized and a better experience! !

We went for a birthday party and the staff was excellent in accommodating especially on a rainy day. The day started off a bit rocky but because of the wonderful staff at the farm the made the party terrific! We can’t wait to come for Christmas time!!!

This is the second year my daughter and I have been to the Farm and, much like last year, we had a blast. The owners chatted with is for some time, and told us the history of the farm and how it came to be what it is today. We met friendly staff after friendly staff, and saw that the whole family gets involved in the working of the farm. The animals were great, the bouncy houses were fun, the corn maze was a blast, and the fried pickles were tasty! I read a few other reviews that said they had a bad time here, but I have a hard time believing it, based on the times I have been. We plan on heading back again before the end of the season, and intend on going to the Christmas lights in December as well!
Thanks for the memories and the great time!
Your friendly sarcastic Canadian ;)

We purchased a Groupon online, which reduced the cost to $ 38 for our family of 6. We went on a beautiful fall day. The hayride was very enjoyable. Purchasing the feed bags for $ 1 proved to be a good investment. Our kids had a blast feeding the camels and the other animals. The rest of the ride wound through the farm. Some reviewers have complained about broken down equipment and a lack of scenery on the ride, but we found the winding path enjoyable. I’m not sure what else I would have expected to see on a farm. All of the employees that we encountered were friendly and helpful. It is a family run farm, so there were little children with their working parents. Personally, I found it neat to see the family – from young to old – operating the farm together. The corn maze was not the best that I have experienced, but it was just fine for our children (ages 3−9years). Our kids also enjoyed riding the camel (an additional $ 5 charge per person). I do recommend packing your own water and snacks. They did have a concession stand, but I did not notice any prohibition from bringing in your own items (or at least having refreshments in your car). I’ve read some of the negative reviews, and I suppose that we have different perspectives. Admittedly, we paid a very reduced rate for our experience, so I might have been more critical had we paid $ 100.

We went to Pettit Creek Farm with our 2 kids ages 4 and 7. We had an awesome time. The kids enjoyed petting the animals, the hayride was awesome and they expended a long time in the inflatables area. I will recommend to take some snacks with you. They only had funnel cake and sodas.

Their website said they opened at 10am. We came on the first day of the season, around noon. We found out we were the first customers. It took quite a while to process our payment of $ 44 dollars on their credit card smartphone app. The Owner’s wife was nice and offered us free t-​shirts for being the first customers of the season. It went a downhill from there…
It didn’t take long in 80 degree weather to work up a sweat. Good thing we had some bottles of water in the car, because the concessions promised on the website were nowhere to be found. After the kids drank some water, we proceeded to pet the sheep and goats. There was only one other family in the whole place. We followed their lead and picked some long grass to feed the goats. 15 minutes later, a 10 year old girl walks up yelling that we’re not allowed to feed the goats grass, but we can pay $ 1 for their feed. She then proceeded to tell is that we could come buy some of her pottery for $ 5, $ 40, or $ 80.
From there, we tried to find some of the services we had paid $ 44 for… I had to hunt down the owner to ask to buy some water. Meanwhile, there were 5 – 10 employees standing around eating Papa Johns pizza.
I asked for the hay ride we had paid for, and finally they pulled the tractor around. We waited on the tractor for 15 minutes while we were hard-​sold the stuff to feed the animals. Then, when we arrived at the animals to feed them, the owner said his daughter must have overfed the animals. They would barely come over to the tractor, because it was a new feeding location, and the animals were already full.
Synopsis: poorly managed; unprepared for their opending day; the customer is NOT first

My family and I went in the fall and had a blast! A lot to do for a reasonable price. Not the best pumpkin selection but we still had a good time :-)

Showed up 50 minutes before they closed and the gate attendants said everything stays open after the hate closes.
After the hay ride they were putting up ponies, the no index ride, and camels. Did not refund anything or a discount. Inflatables had holes in them… Pretty crappy for $ 50 worth of admissions.
Going to Cagles dairy next time. Far better.

OMG!!! I chaperoned my daughter’s school field trip to this «pumpkin patch» and I promise PETA needs to be contacted. Not only was it the FARTHEST thing from a pumpkin patch, the animals they had looked so sick and malnourished.
When we entered the farm we were met by dust and broken down equipment. Further down the dirt road were goats, camels, a zebra, and roosters. It was so sad. They decided to have a «hay ride» that lasted approximately 10 minutes and the only things the children saw were bales of hay, a corn patch, and fed the sick animals (that I personally was too afraid to get within 10 feet because I thought the children and I would catch scabies). The maze was a circle of dead corn, the pig race consisted of 3 piglets running rampant in a cage…
Do you now understand where I am going? To make a long story short don’t do it to yourself or your children!
