We really enjoyed our time here. Great social distancing measures and wonderful treats. My son enjoyed feeding the goats and we loved the brats, kettle corn, apple cider donuts, and apples. Not as \touristy\ as other orchards and no entry fee. Beautiful place!

Really disappointed today with appearance of apples although variety was good. Have always loved their cider but seems to be a different recipe. Lighter in color and slightly tangy, no depth of flavor. Ginger cookies are delicious but 9 for 6 average size cookies seems excessive. And no apple dumplings or apple harvest bread -sad. Still miss their apple cake from years ago too. Just feels more commercialized every year, probably won’t continue my decades long tradition of driving out there.
The staff are friendly and the grounds are well kept. We didn't want to pick our own apples, we just went to play, see the goats and buy baked goods. It's a wide open vineyard and orchard. There are three little playgrounds the kids can climb around on, a few tractors the kids can take rides on our just touch. The goats of course are friendly and there for petting. They have a nicely spaced picnic setup both by the food and by the playgrounds. We spent a couple hours there and I have two under 2 years of age. It seems sparse upon arrival, but there is quite a bit to explore.
We visited this place on a beautiful and busy Saturday a couple of weekends ago. It was crazy busy, but they seemed to know how to handle large crowds. After finding a place to park, among the apple trees, we made our way toward the apple market and winery. Luckily, parking attendants helped with the parking, which was definitely needed. We grabbed some hard ciders from Thor's, located at Aamodt's. We didn't go into the winery section, which was very busy. We went into the market and purchased apples, donuts and cider. The lines were not long given the huge crowds. They were serving kettle corn and brats outside under tents. None of the tents (cider, wine, brats, corn) had out-of-control lines. All were managed well. The inside barn/market also had short lines. This is a great place for families with children. They have a play area, petting zoo area and offer hayrides. You can also pick your own apples. You can easily spend an entire afternoon here, and parents can partake in adult beverages.
An awesome experience picking apples. In addition to apples, we always buy wine and apple brats. They also sell cookies, pies, honey, apple cider, hard apple cider, and other treats.
