Coolspring Corn Maze

Fall-themed fun for everyone.

Ask the average person what fall means to them and they’ll tell you Halloween. The season of fall is usually associated trick or treating, jack-o’-lanterns, ghosts, goblins and Halloween parties. But what do you do once Halloween is over? As an avid Halloween lover, I was always super depressed when November rolled around. That is, until I went to Coolspring Corn Maze with my youth group freshman year.

Coolspring Corn Maze is a small farm/market located about two hours north of Pittsburgh in Mercer, Pennsylvania. The maze involves a wide range of activities, such as a pumpkin patch, pony rides, tractor races, a dance floor, a general store, and hay rides, among other things. The maze opens in early September and closes the first week of November.

Coolspring Corn Maze is a great and inexpensive way to enjoy fall if you’re not a Halloween person, or if you’re looking for something to do after the holiday is over. Admission is cheap—only 10 dollars per person. Donuts are only a couple of dollars a bag. All the other activities are free. It lets you embrace your inner child and really get into the spirit of the season. I’m turning 21 in January, and I was slightly bummed when a six-year-old beat me at the tractor race. The only thing I would change is I would add more indoor spaces, because it’s freezing up there at night. But then again, that’s what hot cider is for. Oh, and donuts. Of course donuts.

If you’re looking to embrace your inner kid and have family friendly fun, then you’ll like Coolspring Corn Maze. I recommend it for anyone who wants to jump into fall without being scared to death.
