For many people, the fall season is hallmarked by apple cider, pumpkin spice-flavored beverages, hayrides and getting lost in corn mazes.
If you are looking for a place to experience all of that and more, look no further than the Cornfusion Corn Maze, located only an hour away from Hood at 2020 Garrett Road, Manchester, Maryland.
Open to people of all ages with a fee of $20 per adult, there are many sources of entertainment that can be found within the vast property. Most of the activities are free and included in the entrance fee, with a few exceptions.
Visitors can pay an extra $3 to feed the goats, chickens, rabbits, geese and horses in the petting zoo, or $5 to shoot apples from an apple blaster.
There are pedal race cars, inflatable bouncy houses, a pumpkin patch, slides, playgrounds, a nature walk, pony rides and so much more.
For those with an athletic inclination, there is an area where visitors can spend their time shooting basketballs, throwing footballs and pitching baseballs to measure their throwing speed.
The biggest attraction, however, is the nine-acre corn maze which visitors can take a short hayride to get to. According to Cornfusion employees, the maze takes an average of an hour to complete.
“This is my first time here,” Grace Konklin, a mom of two daughters, said. “I was looking on Facebook for fun things to do with the family and stumbled upon Cornfusion’s page. It looked like a lot of fun and something my girls would enjoy doing.”
While Cornfusion might seem like it is geared toward children, there are still plenty of activities that anyone regardless of age can enjoy.
“My friends and I come here every fall,” college student Tori Burke said. “I don’t care if I’m 21, I’ll still jump in the bouncy houses and go down the slides.”
