Long Acre Farms

📍 1342 Eddy Road, Macedon, NY 14502🗓 Season dates not yet published for 2026🏷 From $14/person

A weekend-ticketed corn maze farm with a genuinely free courtyard attached — so it works both as a $19 family day and as a no-cost pizza-and-wine stop, which is unusual.

Barnbuster ticket $19 online for ages 3+ ($24 gate). Deluxe $24 online including gemstone panning ($29 gate). Grandparent ticket $14 with a paying grandchild ($19 gate). Children 2 and under free; seniors 80+ free. Gemstone panning sold separately at $6-$45.

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.

Our take

Long Acre runs two things side by side and prices them very differently. The fall attraction side — the Amazing Maize Maze, a kids’ corn maze, the Back 40 play area, a jumping pad, a giant slide, unlimited wagon rides and cow train rides — is weekend-ticketed at $19 to $24 online depending on tier. The courtyard, with its wood-fired pizza, cider donuts and wine tasting room, is free and open daily.

That second half is worth saying plainly, because most farms of this size do not have a free front door. If you are two adults who want an autumn afternoon with a glass of something and a pizza in a farm setting, you can have exactly that for the price of the food.

Choosing a ticket

The three tiers are Barnbuster at $19 online, Deluxe at $24 online, and a $14 grandparent ticket that requires a paying grandchild. Each is $5 more at the gate, so booking online is straightforward money — $20 for a family of four.

The tier decision comes down to one thing: gemstone panning. Sold separately it runs $6 to $45; the Deluxe ticket includes it and costs $5 more than the Barnbuster. If there is any chance your child pans, Deluxe is cheaper. If there is not, do not pay for it.

Two other price notes. Under-2s are free, and so is anyone aged 80 or over — an unusually generous cutoff that makes this a workable four-generation outing.

The hours are not what they look like

The published day is 10am to 5pm, but the play areas and corn maze stay open until 6pm and the last wagon ride goes at 5pm. In practice that means the wagon ride is the first casualty of a late arrival, and the maze is the last thing to close. The Amazing Maize Maze is a substantial one; if you arrive after 4pm intending to finish it, you are working against a clock in fading light.

Which raises the seasonal point. This is Wayne County, and daylight drains fast through October — a 6pm maze close is comfortably light in mid-September and effectively dark by the end of the season. The Friday moonlight maze leans into that deliberately, and it is genuinely cold work; dress as though you will be standing still outdoors for an hour, because you will be.

What is not published

The farm does not give explicit 2026 fall start and end dates on any page we read, and does not publish parking arrangements. Neither is unusual, but both are worth a check before a long drive — particularly at the ends of the season, where a farm can be open for wine and closed for mazes.

Planning your visit

Best time to go

Ticketed fall attractions run Saturdays and Sundays; the moonlight maze runs Friday evenings. Gates are 10am to 5pm, but the play areas and corn maze stay open until 6pm and the last wagon rides go at 5pm — so a 3pm arrival still gets a usable afternoon while a 4.30pm arrival misses the wagons entirely. The farm had not published explicit 2026 fall season start and end dates on any page we read, so confirm your date before driving.

How long to budget

Three to four hours for a ticketed weekend visit — the Amazing Maize Maze alone can absorb an hour if you take it seriously. Under an hour if you are only using the free courtyard.

Crowds

Weekend-only ticketing concentrates the season into Saturdays and Sundays. Wine tasting runs noon to 5pm daily, so the courtyard is at its quietest on a weekday when the attraction side is shut.

Parking

Not published. Expect the standard Wayne County arrangement of grass or gravel overflow, which turns soft after autumn rain.

What to bring

  • Layers for the Friday moonlight maze — standing in a corn field after dark in October is much colder than the daytime figure
  • A torch or headlamp for the moonlight maze unless the farm supplies one; the site does not say
  • Closed shoes for the maze and play areas
  • A card for the tasting room, pizza and gemstone panning

How to spend less here

  • Book online. Every tier is $5 cheaper than the gate: Barnbuster $19 online against $24, Deluxe $24 against $29, grandparent $14 against $19. For a family of four that is $20 saved for two minutes of admin
  • Do the gemstone maths before you choose a tier. Panning is $6 to $45 bought separately, and the Deluxe ticket at $24 online includes it against $19 for the Barnbuster. If your child will pan at all, Deluxe is the cheaper route
  • Children 2 and under are free, and visitors aged 80 and over are free
  • The courtyard costs nothing. A group can eat, taste wine and buy donuts without anyone buying a ticket

Who it suits

Good for

  • Families with kids roughly 4 to 12, who can handle the big maze and will use the jumping pad, giant slide and Back 40 play area
  • Grandparents, who get a $14 online ticket with a paying grandchild — and pay nothing at all from age 80
  • Adults with no children in tow, thanks to a free courtyard with wood-fired pizza, a wine tasting room and cider donuts
  • Anyone who wants a serious corn maze rather than a decorative one

Skip it if

Your only free days are Monday to Thursday — the ticketed attractions are weekends only, with Friday evenings reserved for the moonlight maze. Skip the paid ticket entirely if you just want lunch and a bottle of wine; the courtyard is free and open daily.

Worth pairing with

The on-site winery and brewpub-style courtyard mean you do not strictly need a second stop — the tasting room and wood-fired pizza already cover lunch and a drink, which is not true of most farms in this region.
