Bengston's Pumpkin Farm Reviews

From my previous experiences going to Bengtson s all I have to say is that it s one of the best pumpkin farms around Illinois and would totally recommend people taking their families there as well.

By far the best pumpkin patch around. My little ones love the rides so much!

We just left and didn't even go in. You are paying to get Covid. Hardly anyone was wearing masks. And after reading other reviews I am glad we didn't go in. We are frustrated because we drove an hour to get here and wanted to enjoy the things they had. Please, if you go social distance and wear a mask. This is real.

A tad bit expensive .
Other than that. Pretty cool

I ve never been there but so many people tell me it s so much fun and so many activities to do with your family, would love to visit.

This is a great family outing with plenty to do for the entire family. A great way to make memories that will last.

I been taking my kid there since we moved to the suburbs. He loves that place, he always start asking when are we gonna go since September. We love the kettle corn, its the best. The place its kind of small, but like i said my kid loves to go so it may not be an amazing place for adults but kids will enjoy it and this year 2013 they have free rides included with the admission which its 11.99 during weekends and 9.99 during the week also kids under 2 get in free. I will continue to take my kid there every year and to get some caramel popcorn and our pumpkins.

I've been to several pumpkin patches and this by far has been the best! They always change the layout and that's always great! You can tell that they really invest for what's best for the farm and the customers. Never disappoints, and my kids love it! Has been an annual ritual for us.

Love this place! This place has so much activities and stuff for sales. Beautiful place!! I recommend this place!!! We re coming back!

Family favorite for 20+ years! Gets better every years.

The best time to go is during the week if you can. The price was great for all the rides they had there and my 2 and half year old loved it and also my 18 year old to.. Will be going back next year..

They dont let in even small dogs in bag, because of their animal safety? Srsly? What about people safety? There is crowded place with many people without masks, place doest look sanitary either. Owner must be drunk or mad...

Been coming here since i was a kid. Absolutely love it & just came here with my boyfriend. Its the perfect date night idea during the fall. Only thing I'm disappointed in is that there is no corn maze. Hope you guys bring it back asap!

We come every year. Family tradition. Love this place!

Great place! Best corn box and healthy looking animals!

Avoid el taco cocina though.

The farm was awesome and everyone was super nice... but the donuts are not good.

Great Fall family tradition! Rides and attractions for all ages. Our family always has a great time. We easily spend an entire day at Bengtson's. Don't forget to grab some donuts on the way out!

Must go early in the season if not you will wait in long lines for food and rides

Best place i have taken my son. A family tradition for us now
Highly recommend this pumpkin patch to anyone who would like to take there children to have a fun filled day.
Pig race is amazing
New rides are the go to for kids
Variety of pumpkins to choose from
And their caramel corn is fantastic

Hello everyone , i would love to leave a review for bengtsons but sadly my family and i have not visited yet ,ive heard so many good things about bengtons and would love to join the fun one day it would make my kids so happy ! Thanks for your time in reading

I love Bengston's . They have so much to see and do. We loved everything from funnel cake to the pumpkins we picked. Our first time riding a camel . Now we have a new member and starting a tradition there. Love love this place.

It's amazing family fun every year that we go, if you're going to visit you must see the pot belly pig races they're the best!

This was a great place to take a family! The admission was a little expensive and so was some of the food but the quantity of attractions made up for it. The party barn was a ride my niece especially enjoyed and the apple cider donuts were very good. The day we went was rather chilly, so the hot cider with the cinnamon stick was just the thing to see us off. If there was one disappointment, my niece caught her pants on a nail in one of the photo areas that looked like an outhouse and ripped her pants. The general store did not have anything in her size despite literature claiming that it had clothes in every size. Still, we all had a great time.

Very cute farm! Lots of activities included with general admission. Lines for rides and food were extremely long but overall a great experience.

This place good for keeping the autumn season family tradition of pumpkin patch . Farm is spacious with many exhibits , fun activities for all ages. During COVID era they have taken precautions and mandated face covering for adults and kids greater than 2 years.
I would love to see more cleanliness in terms of washrooms , there are many makeshift restrooms places across the farm however sometimes cleanliness is missing.
Overall we enjoyed this place, they have ample parking space. So good place to enjoy pumpkin patch.

I love this place!I had such an amazing experience with my family. I can't wait to come next year.

2nd time i took my kid n still the best place to take the family

this is a great place for family fun and kids always enjoy their visits i highly recommend this place

Extremely expensive, the place is way to small for the amount of people they allow to enter!!!!!! 22$ a person ages 3 and up. Lines for kiddie rides are min 45 min. Food is way over priced and lines for food are 20/25 min. Pumpkin selection was not what u would get just staying local to our farms. I will not attend again.

I love this place have been going for the past 5 years with my first grand daughter now i have 4 granddaughter who i will be taking this year
we always mace a whole day of it my daughter won the pig race last year lol

Ive heard such great things about this pumpkin patch I havent gotten the chance to visit yet but I hope this is the year I can go

There is no other pumpkin farm worth visiting! Bengston's is truly fun for the whole family! it is a must for every fall season to at least make it out here once (if not every other week)! I can't wait to bring my baby there this year! Thank you Bengston's for so you do! here is to another great year of making memories!

What a waste of money. I could have just stayed home and lit 200 bucks on fire and had the same amount of fun. These are Disney prices for sub par food. I dont think I will be back to pay 25 dollars to buy overpriced pumpkins and look at miserable animals in small pens.

We love Bengtsin's Farm! It is a yearly tradition to come ever year and make great family memories

Really great place i took my daughter last year and she loved it. I loved it as well no complaints everything was very nice even the food

This was our first year and very first time at a pumpkin patch with our two kids (1 & 3) and I must say that all the hype around it is totally and complete... TRUE! Right from the beggining it was great that there was people guiding cars to FREE PARKING. The walk to the actual farm was less then what I expected since I was directed to the other side of the entrance. At the very beggining they have someone out and ready for debit/credit card conviene (Cash only stations when we arrived). Kids under 3 are free so we pretty much just paid for our entrance (mommy & daddy) and we're stamped and directed to the entrance. Now normally I'd expect to go in and kinda wonder around but the nice lady in the entrance took two minutes out of her day to direct us to where it was age friendly for my kids! She saw I had two young once and gave us a quick list of the things she thought we might enjoy & we took her word and went and did all of them! First things first, APPLE CIDER DONUTS. They were exactly what people proclaimed they were : DELICIOUS! Next, animals & carrots! Super clean and they have little bits of carrots avaible for $2 to feed the animals! My kids loved it, right next to it was the pony rides which were great! $5 and they let you take as many pics! Did I mention how beautiful this place is for pictures!?!? After that it was the train ride, pig races, water wells, bunny sight seeing, pumpkin pics (again) & last but not least CORN POOL! That place was all fun and energy. Crowded? Yes, but come on, it's a huge pool of corn!!!!! Totally worth it! Haha. First time and definitely not our last! My kids loved, we loved it and we got to create memories! Thank you!

It's like the Six Flags of pumpkin patches. That's not a bad thing because there's a lot to do here and a lot that both kids and adults will enjoy, but if you're just looking for a pumpkin patch and not all the bells and whistles of a fall-themed, mini amusement park, then this might not be the place for you. That said, it was a lot of fun and the food was excellent

A great spot for families with tons of fall activities. Less of a pumpkin patch and more of a fall amusement park. Our son LOVED the petting zoo, the hayride, and the pig races! Almost the whole thing is paved, so very stroller friendly.

Disappointed in the company. I understand with the virus snd social distancing the reduced number of customers in the farm. When making my reservations I accidentally clicked on the wrong number of kids I was bringing. I by my own mistake a left one out. Mind you the children are small, 2 in strollers. As we were getting ready to leave I checked my reservation and realized my mistake. I immediately called and was told the only thing they could do was offer me a refund for another time. I will take my refund and will not visit Bengstons for pumpkins or Christmas. Such a shame as we have been going for many years.

Too expensive for a rainy day no rain checks no refunds

Great amusement park that sells pumpkins . Been bring my children since they were 2, and this place has grown so much in 7 years. It tends to get a bit busy but still worth the fun it brings the family. Def check it out.

We go every year . My youngest is 2 so this year she will be able to get to enjoy everything. We love doing the corn maze it's always a blast. Especially since we are horrible at it. Lol. Can't wait to go this year

Best fall/Halloween fest in the Chicago area! We go every year and always will!

I love this place!! My wife and I have been going for years. Then we got to share the amazing experience with our daughter who happened to start walking right there at the pumpkin patch! We go every year and simply can't wait to go this year and many more to come!!

My Family and I had a great time until towards the end of our trip. Waited in line to get on the last ride and was disappointed when the ride attendant did not let us on but let another group on and there were 6 seats left! I truly believe he was being prejudice. The children was very disappointed. That very incident will change our family tradition of visiting this farm as well as recommending others to visit. & for our injustice we was offered kettle corn and told that it would change anything they can only talk to the ride attendant never got his name but he was a elderly white man with gray hair

My family and I have been going there for years. So many things to do and lots of fun! Many memories made

This was our first time visiting the farm and couldn t have had a more amazing experience. We went on a busy weekend and even with the large crowd every employee we encountered was super nice and helpful. We can t wait to go back!

Kids had a good time but this place is starting to just be open to make money. Like for example the "hay ride" come on no hay what's so ever. No decorations anywhere around where they take you. I mean for how much they charge to get in and for everything you buy there they could so some more to the place.

Your favorite pumpkin farm. The kids always have the best time. Especially the pig race!

We've been going for 3 yrs and my grand daughter loves it, and it keeps getting better !

Very very long wait lines since most rides and attractions are for younger kids wait is hard for kids. Park is clean

It was cold weather and no heat any where to be found they need to install heaters around the farm

We had so much fun with our grandson last year at Bengston s! We haven t been here since our own kids were little. It s much different! So much to do! Rides, shows, pig races! Our grandson s favorite was the corn box! Can t wait to go again this year!!

I have been coming to Bengstons pumpkin farm since I was a kid and I am so impressed with how it has evolved over the years! Still has all my favorite things-- best hay rack ride in the country! And so many new fun experiences too! This year will be my daughter's first year picking a pumpkin straight from a patch and needless to say we're so excited! Thank you for providing my growing family with a fun fall tradition!

Bengtson's Pumpkin Patch has always been a family favorite every year! Also so clean and a great opportunity to make memories to last a lifetime! Always leave with a smile and a pumpkin or two!

We had a really good time at Bengtson's pumpkin farm ! They have a petting zoo, haunted house, apple cider donuts, pot belly pig races, skeleton band and much much more ! Be sure to take a trip to this farm and get ready for a fun time.

1. It s not the best pumpkin patch in the Chicagoland area. 2. Way overpriced! 3. Get there when it opens; otherwise, you ll spend at least 45 mins in line per ride and for a crappy corndog. 4. Over commercialized, which is a shame since it used to have so much charm. 5. Expect to drop at least $200 for a family of 4 with food, which by the way you waited 45 mins for a simple slice of pizza. Suggest trying some of the other smaller, less known, farms in or around Southwest IL suburbs or IN much better experience.

To the owner: Suggest limiting the number of guests you allow in you re ONLY thinking for profit not experience. I don t mind spending the money but the wait times are worse then Disney.

This place has come a long way over the years I've been going and we love it! My family prefers Bengtson's over all the others! Very pricey though, only downside.

They added a petting zoo area. Very excited. Lots of great photo opportunities with children

Great place for the entire family. So many great things to do. The new rollercoaster is so much fun and the new corn box is HUGE! (the barn it's in is beautiful). Lots of new food choices or this hungry family :) The petting zoo is nice and clean. Love all the newest additions. Love love love Bengtsons!

This is a great family place !! It s a little exspensive but it s worth it

I love love love Bengtson's farm!!!!! My family tried so many different farms in the past but this farm is really the best. My kids had soooo much fun that the didn't want to go home:) The farm is so big so you don;t have to wait in a big line because they have so many attractions. The best part is that all the attractions are in included in the admission. I will be the first one in line this year for sure. I recommended that farm to all my friends and everyone was really happy with their visits.

Best pumpkin farm ever! From my 2 year old to my 17 year old my kids love coming here. My son loves the train ride. We visit a few times a year because it's so much fun for the kids. Excellent prices too.

I have loved coming here with my siblings! Fall is our favorite season and coming coming to this Farm makes the greatest memories!

I went here on the spur of the moment on a Wednesday evening. I love this place. It really feels like Halloween. I love how they have it decorated with all these whimsical houses and pumpkins. And all the rides are included with admission. I will be coming here every year. It was worth the drive.

I have not been here in quite a few years but I finally got to bring my family recently and I have to say it was still the most enjoyable pumpkin farm I have been to. My 5 year old had the time of his life. The only drawback I have is that the food there is expensive and u can't bring food in.

Fun family times with so many awesome things to do!! Yearly tradition

Terrible experience. It was so overcrowded it was uncomfortable. It took more than 45 min to get on rides or get food. We could barely walk around with our 3 year old safely. We were expecting it to be crowded, but this was out of control.

This is my all time favorite place. We come here as a family when i was a little younger and now i bring my kids every year. Throughout the years there has been many beautiful changes! I love it. And the food is amazing!!! We will be here this year...cant wait!
Love this place

Love taking my boys every year! Such a great experience!

Perfect for family fun! Looking forward to have my very first family trip with my baby and husband to bengton s pumpkin farm!

Beautiful farm with a lot to see and do, but so crowded you can barely walk through. Rides had waits as long as an hour!

Decent place with lots to do. Too many people let in at once. Social distancing is not enforced. Hay rides are PACKED. Mask wearing also not enforced. Dangerous right now. Would not return during the pandemic.

My Kids loved this pumpkin patch. Although it's a little pricey. But It's hard to resist this pumpkin patch. We will keep coming back.
