I've gone to Sonny Acres' Haunted Hayride every year, and while the Haunted Hayride itself is still great, the overall experience at Sonny Acres has become increasingly disappointing.Charging $10 per person just to enter the property, on top of the $25 per person already being charged for the Haunted Hayride, is excessive. There was a time when general admission was free. Now, families and groups are paying an additional fee just to walk through the grounds and get to the attraction they've already paid for.What exactly are guests getting for that extra $10? There are very few activities for adults outside of the Haunted House and Haunted Hayride, both of which require separate admission. The free ride pass included with admission sounds nice in theory, but there really aren't many adult-friendly rides to enjoy. The Tilt-A-Whirl is practically the only option, and the line was extremely long. After finally waiting in line and getting halfway through, the ride broke down.On top of that, the parking layout and traffic flow leave a lot to be desired. Getting in and out of the property could be much more organized and efficient.It's disappointing to see a place that has been an annual tradition become so focused on charging guests at every turn. Charging general admission AND charging separately for the main attractions makes the experience feel less like a fun night out and more like an endless series of fees.The Haunted Hayride is great, but the overall value just isn't there anymore. Unfortunately, Sonny Acres is no longer worth what they're charging.

The help is very nice but everything is very old and extremely expensive. We will not be back. There are too many other farms with affordable packages.

This used to be my favorite place to visit in the fall—we’re talking DECADES of visits. I even loved many of the improvements the new owners made in recent years, including the addition of the cute bar.Unfortunately, I’ve just learned that they’re now charging a $10 admission fee, on top of the already-exorbitant $25 haunted hayride. For an adult, that $10 admission gets you essentially nothing beyond the privilege of walking around the property and maybe feeding some goats. Everything else is à la carte.I understand that prices go up and businesses need to make money. But charging people simply to enter, only to charge them again for virtually every activity once they’re inside, feels like greed rather than an improvement to the experience.After decades of making this place part of my fall tradition, I’m incredibly disappointed to see it go in this direction. Our group of at least 15 people has already decided we won’t be returning, and I certainly won’t be recommending it to others anymore. What a disappointing way to lose longtime, loyal customers.

Wonderful food, attractions, produce and farm animals. Ice cold beer too! All NFL games on giant TV screens. Staff is great.

New digital ticket system is not really digital at all. Charge you a $2.50 service fee and you still have to walk all the way to the front to get tickets.. a real joke that's for sure.. other than that the place is great. I've been coming here for 20 years
