An eleven-acre Poconos corn maze at $15 a head, or $14 if you pay cash, with the $6 play wristband bundled in — good value for the ticket, undermined by a website that never publishes its actual daily hours.
Maze entrance $15.00 per person, discounted to $14.00 when paying cash. Children under 4 free. An activity wristband covering the jump pads, pedal cars and cow train is $6.00 and is included with a maze ticket.
Rough cost for a family of four: about $56.00 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.
The ticket structure here is better than it first looks. Fifteen dollars for a corn maze sounds mid-range until you notice that the six-dollar activity wristband — jump pads, pedal cars, the cow train — comes with it rather than on top. Effectively you are paying nine dollars for an eleven-acre maze and six for the play area, and both of those are fair prices. Pay cash and the whole thing drops to fourteen.
Run the arithmetic for a family of four with two children over four: fifty-six dollars in cash, sixty on a card. Swap one child for a toddler and you are at forty-two or forty-five, because under-4s are free. That is competitive for the Poconos, and considerably cheaper than the ticketed evening farms an hour north.
Eleven acres, redesigned every year. That last part matters more than the acreage. A maze that changes annually is one a local family can return to, and it is a signal that the farm treats the maze as the product rather than as decoration around a gift shop. Expect an hour minimum if you are genuinely navigating.
The pumpkin patch is reached by wagon rather than on foot, which is worth knowing for two reasons: it is part of the fun for small children, and it means you cannot casually nip out to the field and back. Factor a round trip into the plan.
Beyond that there is a corn pit, slides, farm animals, a produce stand and a bakery, plus food vendors. Nothing exotic, but a sensible spread that keeps a mixed-age group occupied.
First, the hours. The schedule page talks about last entrance times without publishing the times themselves, and it gives a season described as roughly eight weeks across September and October without naming the start and end dates. For a maze farm, last entrance is the number that decides your whole afternoon — turn up ninety minutes before closing at an eleven-acre maze and you may not be allowed in. This is a phone call before you leave the house, not a nice-to-have.
Second, the two charity nights. An Olsen Christmas Wish night on September 25 and a Pink Out on October 17 are both listed, but without a stated year. If either is the reason you want to go, confirm the date applies to this season.
No pets, anywhere on the property. It is stated plainly, and it is the detail most likely to end a trip in the car park. Open farm sites vary enormously on this and a lot of them tolerate a leashed dog on the wagon route, so people generalise. Do not generalise here.
Monroe County sits higher and colder than the valley towns to the south, and October evenings here get sharp early. If your visit runs toward the end of the operating day in the second half of October, dress for a walk in the dark rather than for the temperature at the moment you left home. And frost is the real end of the season anywhere in northeastern Pennsylvania — once the corn is down, the maze goes, calendar or no calendar. A farm can still be selling pumpkins after its maze has closed, so if the maze is what you want, go in the first half of October rather than gambling on Halloween weekend.
The farm describes a season running through September and October, referred to as roughly eight weeks, but it did not publish opening and closing dates or daily hours on the pages we read. That is the single biggest planning gap here. Two dated charity nights appear in the schedule — an Olsen Christmas Wish night on September 25 and a Pink Out for women's health on October 17 — though the year was not stated alongside them. In general terms, the first half of October is the reliable window in Monroe County: the corn is still standing, the patch is picked over less, and you are ahead of the first hard frost that ends maze season in the Poconos.
Two to three hours. An eleven-acre maze with a fresh design each year is not a twenty-minute walk, and the wagon ride out to the pumpkin patch is a separate chunk of time on top. Add another hour if young children get onto the jump pads, because they will not want to leave them.
An eight-week season across September and October in a heavily visited part of the Poconos means October Saturdays carry the load, and leaf-peeping traffic on Route 115 adds to it. Sunday afternoons and any weekday the farm turns out to be open will be materially quieter. The two charity nights will be busier than an ordinary evening because they are single-date events with a cause attached.
Not published. Assume unpaved field or gravel parking. October in the Poconos is wet, and the ground here holds it.
You are bringing a dog. Pets are explicitly not permitted anywhere on the property, and an open farm field looks dog-friendly right up until you are turned away in the car park. Skip it too if you need certainty about opening times — the farm's schedule page references calendars and last-entrance times without actually displaying daily hours, so a same-week phone call or Facebook check is mandatory.
Saylorsburg sits on Route 115 between the Lehigh Valley and the central Poconos, so this slots naturally into a day that also takes in a Monroe County orchard or a drive north through leaf season. Do the maze first while the light is good and leave the orchard for the afternoon.
Maze entrance is $15.00 per person, discounted to $14.00 if you pay cash. Children under 4 are free. The $6.00 activity wristband covering the jump pads, pedal cars and cow train is included with a maze ticket rather than charged separately.
Not published. The farm's schedule page refers to calendar buttons and last-entrance times but did not display actual daily hours or exact season dates when we checked. Phone 570-402-7378 or check the farm's Facebook page before setting out.
No. Pets are explicitly not permitted anywhere on the property. This is the rule most likely to derail a visit, because plenty of open farm sites do allow leashed dogs and people assume this one does too.
Eleven acres, with a new design cut each year. That is a genuine maze — expect an hour or more if you are working it out rather than following the crowd.
2026 dates had not been published when we last checked. In past seasons it has run: September through October; the site refers to an eight-week season but did not publish the weekly pattern on the pages read. Check with the farm before driving out.
Admission starts at $14 per person. Maze entrance $15.00 per person, discounted to $14.00 when paying cash. Children under 4 free. An activity wristband covering the jump pads, pedal cars and cow train is $6.00 and is included with a maze ticket.
415 Route 115, Saylorsburg, PA 18353, in Monroe County. It is one of 4 patches we track in Northeast Pennsylvania.
We track 4 patches in Northeast Pennsylvania, 1 of which are free to walk into. At $14 a head this one sits below the regional median of $15.95, undercutting 2 of the 3 paid patches we track here.
What sets it apart locally: it has a corn or crop maze, hayrides, which most Northeast Pennsylvania patches on our list do not.
One caveat worth repeating: this farm had not published its 2026 dates when we last checked, while 2 of the 4 patches we track in Northeast Pennsylvania had. Treat any date you see elsewhere as last year's until the farm confirms it.
