What you get for the price

Included with admission

Corn Maze with 3 Levels8-10 Acres of PumpkinsHayridesAnimal ZooPAC-MAZECorn Box30+ Activities

$12 general admission; discounts for seniors, veterans, first responders

Rough cost for a family of four: about $48.00 in admission alone at the posted starting rate, before pumpkins, food, parking or any add-on listed above. Most families end up well north of that once they are through the gate.

Our take

Autumn Acres operates three separate corn mazes annually, each with a different theme and design. Rather than a single massive maze that fills a visit, the farm offers three distinct experiences in one location, appealing to families who want maze variety and don’t want to drive multiple places. The farm grows 8–10 acres of pumpkin diversity—multiple sizes, colors, and shapes beyond the standard orange—and offers a holiday-season lighted maze for visitors interested in longer-season appeal.

The Three-Maze Model

Three corn mazes in one location is unusual and appeals to families with mixed maze skills (adults navigate the complex Trivia/Biblical Maze; younger kids try a simpler route). However, doing all three in one afternoon is ambitious. Expect 40–90 minutes per maze. If you’re visiting with a mixed-age group, plan to split duties or pick two mazes and save the third for a return visit. Confirm that all three are included in the $12 admission and that there are no additional charges for accessing maze #2 or #3.

Pumpkin Variety as a Differentiator

Most Tennessee patches emphasize size and quantity; Autumn Acres emphasizes variety. At 8–10 acres with pumpkins “in all shapes, colors, sizes,” your family can find white pumpkins, miniature varieties, lumpy heirloom types, or traditional orange. This matters if someone in your group has specific decorative goals beyond the typical pumpkin look. Walk the patch before committing to harvesting to find what appeals.

Discounts for Specific Groups

The farm explicitly offers discounts for seniors, veterans, and first responders. Call to ask the specific discount percentage and what documentation is required (military ID, first-responder badge, driver’s license with age verification). This can meaningfully reduce cost for groups that qualify.

The Holiday-Season Lighted Maze

A lighted maze is mentioned as available during the holiday season. This is a separate offering from the fall pumpkin-patch season, but it’s useful context if your family enjoys multiple seasonal visits. Call to ask whether the lighted maze overlaps with the last weeks of the pumpkin season (early November) or whether it’s a strictly November/December offering.

Hours Uncertainty

As of August 2026, specific 2026 hours have not been published online. The season runs September 12 through November 1, but your exact available visit time is uncertain. Check autumnacrestn.com or call the farm a few weeks before your intended visit to confirm opening time, closing time, and days of operation. Early October is more likely to have weekend-only hours; mid-October may add weekday slots depending on demand.

Planning your visit

Best time to go

October weekends. Early October has better field conditions and lighter crowds than mid-to-late October.

How long to budget

2.5–3 hours for a family to navigate multiple mazes and pick pumpkins.

Crowds

Presumed moderate to high on weekends, especially mid-to-late October. Exact conditions depend on 2026 hours.

Parking

Farm lot; typical unpaved. Early October offers better lot conditions.

Strollers and accessibility

Corn mazes are not wheelchair accessible. Other activities vary. Call the farm for specific access details.

What to bring

  • Cash and/or card for admission
  • Bags for pumpkin transport (or confirm wagon service availability)
  • Comfortable walking shoes for maze navigation
  • Sunscreen and water
  • Photo ID if seeking senior, veteran, or first-responder discounts (confirm which documentation required)

How to spend less here

  • At $12 general admission, the base cost is genuinely affordable.
  • Seniors, veterans, and first responders receive discounts. Call 865-??? (confirm number with website) to ask for exact discount percentages and required documentation.
  • Three separate mazes for one admission is strong value; plan your maze strategy before visiting to maximize time.

Who it suits

Good for

  • Families wanting to experience three different maze designs in one visit
  • Visitors seeking pumpkin diversity (8–10 acres of varieties in all shapes, colors, sizes)
  • Groups interested in a seasonal lighted maze (operates during holiday season)
  • Visitors qualifying for senior, veteran, or first-responder discounts

Skip it if

You need weekday hours; Your schedule is rigid and uncertainty about 2026 hours is risky; Your group dislikes walking or maze navigation

Common questions

What are the three mazes and how do they differ?

Each of the three corn mazes has a different theme, refreshed annually. In 2026, the specific themes have not been published online. The largest is the Trivia/Biblical Maze with 40+ trivia check points. Call the farm to ask about current-year themes and difficulty levels.

Can I do all three mazes in a single visit or do they cost separately?

All three are included in your $12 admission. Plan 40–90 minutes per maze depending on family age and skill. Doing all three in one afternoon is possible but will consume most of your time.

What about the lighted maze during the holiday season?

The record mentions a lighted maze available during the holiday season, but this is outside the fall pumpkin-patch season (likely November/December). Call to ask if the lighted maze overlaps with pumpkin-season dates or if it's a separate seasonal offering.
