Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How long will it take me to go through the maze?

A: It will take approximately 1/2 hour or more to complete our small maze and 1 hour to go through the larger maze, so plan to spend about 2 hours or more at the maze. 

Q: How should we dress for the maze?

A: The maze is located in an open corn field so we suggest that you dress appropriately for the temperature and wear good comfortable walking shoes. Our trails are bumpy and you need to be careful when walking. Smaller children may appreciate a ride in a wagon. Use backpacks instead of strollers for babies and toddlers, or heavy duty strollers with big wheels.

Q: Do you have Restrooms?

A: There are portable restrooms and hand wash stations available.

Q: What types of payment do you accept?

A: We accept cash and credit cards.

Q: Are pets allowed in the maze?

A: We are sorry, but pets must be left at home. Of course, certified service animals are always allowed.

Q: Does the maze ever close due to weather?

A: The Mazes are only open weather permitting. Muddy ground conditions after rain storms could force them to stay closed even after the rain has stopped. Please call 586.365.9401 if you question the weather in our area. If we need to close for the day, a message will be left on the farm answering machine.

Q: Can I get lost in the maze and not be found?

A: No, we have never had anyone lost in the maze… al least we don’t think so 🙂 We do supply each maze customer with a map to keep in their pocket if needed.

Q: Why can’t I drink alcoholic beverages in the maze?

A: Because this is an alcohol free event. Folks, you need all of your full senses to go through the maze!

Q: Why can’t I smoke in the maze?

A: Because smoking in the maze is a fire hazard and a fire marshal would shut us down if we let people smoke in the maze.

Q: When the maze is open during nighttime hours, do I need to bring a flashlight?

A: Yes, you need to bring a flashlight because the maze pathways are not lit up at night. We do rent some flashlights but we only have a limited amount.  The Maze closes at 8pm but in the late fall it does get dark early!!

Q: When will the maze be haunted?

A: We no longer offer haunted events.

Q: How did you cut out the maze?

A: We hire a fantastic family from Idaho who own a company called Mazeplay to design and cut our corn maze. You can visit their website at www.mazeplay.com, to view all the great mazes they create. Jim and Sue, the owners, have over the years learned some farming basics and now prepare all the fields, plant all the sunflowers and pumpkins on their own in addition to working full time jobs!! Remember we are city folks, or at least we were!!
