“Fabulous Fall time at Sonny Acres. Was able to check all the fall festival boxes: Cider. Apple Cider Donuts. Haunted House Haunted Barn (still scary during the day event without live actors). Haunted Hayride (not as scary during the day but still cool). Apple Cider Donuts. Pumpkin hunting. Petting Zoo with farm animals. Apple Cider Donuts. Definitely want to go to the Haunted Barn and Hayride at night. Oh and did I mention there were donuts?”

“Great place to go for some fall festival fun and amazing holiday spirit. Fun treats snacks and activities. Free parking free admission and easily navigable walkways make it pretty easy to get around for everyone (parents and grandparents). Super easy to find right off North Avenue.”

“Great fall fest and haunted experiences no entry fee many places for photo ops and the best hayride!”

“I was searching for fall festivals near me and found this unbelievable gem! Fall Fest Fun!!! Great Food loved the roaster corn hayride with the kids was a perfect kickoff to fall.”

“This place is PERFECT for the family (families w/young kids) or even for friends to enjoy fall fest festivities! The food vendors are always good and many feature typical fall fest fair favorites- like fresh apple cider doughnuts homemade caramel apples (with nuts sprinkles or plain) and delicious ciders. Classics with a twist- such as elevated funnel cakes (served as funnel fried) dressed with a buttery whipped topping drizzled with maple syrup and topped with *real* savory bacon bits adding both a chewy and crispy texture it was to die for! I recommend their haunted house/haunted barn haunted hayride and petting zoo. They have fair rides cute little shops and pumpkins galore! This place is a tradition for many and with good reason. They’re open beyond fall festivities as well they also have winter holiday attractions like Santa’s workshop where kids can visit Santa and they sell holiday trees and wreaths. FREE PARKING! I think it’s worth supporting this old farm :).”
