C. Philllips Farms, Inc. Review

Seriously!!! $10 to get in/person and then they ask $2-$3 for any activity per person. Totally abusing the system

Such a beautiful farm. Friendly staff. Very organized. Must see for yourself. Support you local farmers please. Not many left.

last year was fine, this year very rude staff, they are not allowed us eat strawberries just let pick them. they overcharged for berries.Overall not good experience.

Good place to spend around 2-3 hours, especially for kids. $12.50 is entry including 4 things (2 rides included) . Good games were arranged to keep the kids busy .. i would say good for kids between 5-10 yrs...my kid's are 6 and 10 yrs and both enjoyed. Pumpkins were little costlier. I got a medium size pumpkin for$8... but I think that was worth if you include the fun part of it... closer to 55 , so easily accessible. Parking available. Please pack your bag with drinking water... they had soap and water arrangement for washing hands and also enough hand sanitizer... overall nice arrangement. Restrooms might be some challenge but for 2 hrs of plan , it should be manageable.

Great family experience...fun was had by all! Soo much to do for kids of all ages. Price of admission covers almost all activites, food & pumpkins are extra. This farm has become a favorite family tradition for the last 5 years!

Beautiful, family friendly. Had an amazing time here for Halloween!!

If I had kids, this would be the perfect place for a pumpkin patch. I wish we had gone at least one to two weeks earlier to get a pumpkin on the vine. The hayride was interesting to find out more about the farm. The food trucks are also a great thing.

Nice park but people/visitors need to listen to employees instructions!

Had a great time! Lots of fun for the kids and staff was very kind and interactive! Will be back for sure!

My wife and I went to Phillips Farms to get our Christmas tree. We had an amazing time walking around and choosing our tree. The area was well lit and the trees looked amazing and healthy. It was hard to choose but we got a 5/6 foot tree. The young man who helped us prep the tree and tie the tree to the car was very helpful and a great person to talk to. He made the experience of choosing a tree magical. I forgot his name, but he s the young man who watched Elf the Musical. We will be back next year!

This place is awesome! Lots of fun activities for kids..only downside no bathrooms, however they do have portal potties and they are clean! The other, no food on site .looks like they have an ice cream stand but it was closed when we went.

Fun place to being the kids right when they open up before Halloween. My nearly 4 year old loved it. Cute place really; nothing magical but also a great mellow place my son loved.

Great times are had here! Family friendly. Fun activities. Feed the goats!

Phillips Farms has the best strawberries in the area, they are both delicious and have great prices. Phillips Farms is a Family run business with a great Friendly Staff. You are made to feel welcome the minute you arrive and they are eager to assist you so you enjoy your experience while visiting their strawberry fields. You will leave very satisfied!!!!

In addition to DELICIOUS STRAWBERRIES, there are lots of family oriented activities for the entire family. Each year I go visit the farm for all their fall activities and have a great time as well. The farm is a wonderful place and it is nice to see that the Phillips Family works very hard to make sure each visitor leaves satisfied.

I have been visiting them for the past 4 years and will never go anywhere else!!! Give them a try, I promise once you visit, you will never go anywhere else!!!!!!!

Went here for a pumpkin patch-type trip. It was pretty good and not too expensive. They had a little petting zoo and lots of activities for the kids. They corn maze was a little weird, but overall a good experience. They even charged a reasonable price for a bottle of water ($1!). Nice BBQ sandwiches were available on the day I went with my family as well.

It was all fun and good until we went to the pumpkin patch. We had one big pumpkin, one medium and one small one. The woman there charged us 2 big pumpkins ($8 each) and 1 medium ($5) When we kindly questioned it, she put the pumpkins on the scales in front of us. The small one weighed less than 5 lbs but she blatantly lied and told us it weighed over 5 lbs (as if we were blind), hence it was considered medium. The same with the medium one (less than 8 lbs). Nevertheless we paid because our kids wanted them.

The family after us got 2 small pumpkins, the same size as ours, and they were counted as small ($3 each).

So the woman on the pumpkin patch lied through her teeth only to get extra $5 from us. How sad.

Great family fun but the shelters need fans on hot summer days. Everything else was a blast!

Family fun place. Dont bring a stroller because you wont be able to push it over the rocks!

My family and I had a blast! Staff was friendly and helpful. All attractions were well kept and my family will be back next year!

Phillips Farms is an awesome place to pick strawberries! Delicious, ripe berries, ready to use in your favorite recipes. Fair prices, friendly staff, and the best Family Fun Park around.

It's all wonderful family fun, or more at night. The fun lasts all day. Cow train!

My kids had a blast here when we went last summer. There is tons of stuff to do. You could easily make an afternoon out of it, or just go for an hour or two. The parking can get pretty insane.

There are games, berry picking, hay rides, corn maze, snow cones, various local farmer vendors (diary, meat, etc) depending on when you go.

My wife and I are big on our kids understanding where food comes from, and to that end this place is excellent.

We loved PF, we usually visited during strawberries Upick season.

There's a lot of family activities to do here. You could easily spend hours. The corn maze was interesting and challenging, unlike a lot of corn mazes I've been through. They do this thing where you choose a list and the questions in the list help you go through the maze. It's a little pricey though and we got in with a discount through our swim team.

Great selection of trees and a really nice Christmas area with snacks and Peak City Coffee. The Halloween section is always great fun with a haunted corn maze and playground area. Also strawberries in the spring/summer.

Phillips farm is a great local spot for families! ( Kids at heart too ) They have plenty of activities for the price of admission for the Corn Maze.

TONS to do for the entire family! We did the corn maze, the hayride, all of the games, the bounce houses, petting zoo, and a few of their more unique offerings such as the pumpkin launch. My only feedback is that I wish the pumpkin patch was bigger and the selection of pumpkins was bigger and the petting zoo was larger. We went the 2nd weekend in October so I don't think we were too late into the season. The petting zoo had some chickens and about 5 goats. Still, all of the extra entertainment and games more than made up for it. We will definitely be back next year! It's a new family tradition
:^)

What kind of farm doesn t allow dogs on leash?! What a joke!

Very good time spent! Kids enjoyed so many activities on the fall afternoon. You can also pick up nice pumpkins for yourself, very conveniently placed.

Beautiful place.absolutely loved the sunflower field.worth every penny.

We have gone every year for the past 4 years and it's always great. They've added a few new things this year and it seemed busier than usual for as late in the season as we went. Lots of stuff for kids probably through ages 7-8 but probably phases out after that

The Fraser Fir I bought for Christmas here was beautiful with respect to size, shape, and freshness. Unfortunately though, it came infested with Cinara Aphids. When I first brought the tree home, I noticed that a yellow jacket had flown out of it. I had never seen anything like that come out of a tree before -- so I inspected the tree for more insects and didn't find any. I did notice while researching on Google though, that yellow jackets can be attracted to trees with aphid infestations -- so I kept a close eye on the tree. Sure enough, two weeks later, aphids hatched. They looked like large, black ticks and crawled all over my living room floor. I've had to leave the vacuum out to vacuum them up as they hatch. Really gross. I have never had a problem like this with a tree ever. Aphids are something that tree companies usually look out for and control. Not recommended.

Crowded as normal on Saturdays and most people attending are wearing masks and following social distancing guidelines. Fun for families. Had Bond Brothers here for adults that need to quench their thirsts. Other concession vendors offer varied items that you think you may need like a slice of pie.

Very rude staff at the wagon ride!! Overall, expensive and some of the activities are unsafe for kids! You have to make sure you watch your kids closely! I saw several kids falling off the tube swing today and the staff who wasn't paying attention kept pushing the swing which then hit the poor kids' head. Horrible!

Kid and family friendly. We had a lot of fun today.

Family fun for low price. This should be an year round attraction. Please?

This is not a place for adults to go alone. This is first and foremost a children's playground. Lots of activities for the kids and for adults to do with the kids. The corn maze is quick and easy and takes about 20 minutes to go through. It is not a corn maze anyone could get lost in. There are numerous activities. Masks are not required and more people than not were not observing social distancing or wearing masks. There are a few places to buy snacks like kettle corn, snow cone, ice cream, cotton candy, pretzels. There are several porta potties. Bond Brothers sold beer. It is a great place to bring kids to let them run around with numerous activities.

I took my family of 4 to the haunted corn maze and Gore house/haunted tractor ride. Terrible value for the money spent. $80 and we spent over 2 hours standing in lines for maybe 8 minutes of attraction. The haunted house were weak at best. Way way way over priced. A disappointment.

We went to the farm for their Haunted House and it was just the right amount of horror. It was so much fun. Thanks Philips Farm!!

Great place! The pumpkin section was amazing and the corn maze and other activities was very nice.

Beautiful farm, you can learn more about the care of many of the animals found here and there are also events for the haunted farm season.

Can I just tell you all how much FUN we had at Phillips Farms of Cary, NC today? I m so glad I met the owners last week in my studio (they just had the sweetest little baby boy!) and found out about this place. We had a blast! When they told me they had games there and a corn maze - I was excited...But when we arrived, I was completely blown away! My kids didn t want to leave after 3 hours of exploring everything they had to offer - and we didn t even make it in the corn maze or pick a pumpkin like we had planned!!! .

They won t stop talking about the cow train and pedal bikes. Dylan, who s 8, said he gives it 5 Stars . They loved feeding the goats and the candy cannon was a huge surprise!! We were so impressed with the staff there and how clean and new everything is. You can tell so much thought was put into the layout and the variety of things to do. My mom said the price of admission ($10/pp) was worth it in the pedal bikes alone (my kids went on 3 times and got a TON of energy out - and I also hopped on one and chased them)! We also went on a history wagon ride and learned all about the farm and their over 100 year history and even got to shoot corn and small pumpkins! So. Much. To. Do! My kids (and I) are going to sleep good tonight!

We will definitely be back again to pick our pumpkins and have even more fun!!! This is a fantastic family outing and great place to go to support a wonderful local family farm! Thank you Michael Phillips for inviting us to check it out!!

The best pumpkin patch I have ever been. Price is cheap and so much to play. The parking is so easy too. I would definitely recommend to everyone.

They still have a lot of strawberries and they are huge. Nice family farm with reasonable prices and very sweet berries. They have some entertainments for kids and picnic tables to have snacks for all family.

They should build proper rest rooms for what they do most of the year.
One time cost would be well worth their money.

This is a nice place for families and children that do not need wheelchairs. It advertises being handicapped accessible. It's not, unless the wheelchair has the new big tires. I took my client in his wheelchair and consistently got stuck in the corn maze and the gravel that is the walkway. We will not return.

There was a lot to do for $10 and the kettle corn was really good too. The pumpkin selection left a bit to be desired, but at least you could pick straight off the vine.

Great fun, but overpriced. We will probably go somewhere else next year.

Visiting Phillips Farm at least twice a year is a tradition for us, as it's a super fun, family-friendly place to go during the Fall for corn maze and Fall festival-type fun and activities or during the Spring to pick strawberries. Affordable and fun for the entire family!

This is a fun place for your kids. Lots of kid friendly activities like bounce house and farm animals. Make sure to schedule at least 3 hours to enjoy it fully.

Good scares and thrills!!! Great actors who really enjoyed scaring others

They are likely scamming the strawberry scale. They never let it tare to zero by keeping a water bottle or their finger on it when they aren't weighing strawberries. It's probably only a few pennies per but given how self righteous they are in their literature ("eating strawberries in the field is stealing from our family.") it is annoying.

Lots of trees, staff very helpful, got our tree there last year...

The event gets better every year. I like the food offerings. They should get more food trucks

We went to the haunted part, compared to other haunted places we went to (2014) this one was ok. They have 2 houses which were very well done, had nice decorations, were scary, interesting, and fun. The actors were really good and into it and did not break character. The problem is they didn't let us go in alone, adding more people to our party making it not as personal and scary. The hayride was disappointing, it was simply a lot of the same without any cool or unique features. Same for the maze which was actually not a maze but a path through the corn field with haunters, short and sort of predictable. There were no hunters outside the attractions like there are in other places. There was a good selection of food available and even option to pay with card. People working there seemed nice, mostly.

We attempted the Haunted Corn Maze this evening. My husband and my 8 year old son did great. I however had a full on fetal position panic attack on the ground of the maze. A very sweet lady ghoul came and helped me and walked us out. Thank you so much for being so kind. We will definitely return, but I'll sit the scary stuff, out.

Daughters love it. Every year we visit. One of best in entire triangle area

Lots of fun for the kids. We spent the day trying out all the different activities, from corn maze and wagon ride to bouncy cow castle, running inside wheels, tossing lasso, pitching balls, filling hay sacks, crawling in corn, and eventually picking our own pumpkins in the field. Only negative for us was we thought the food and seating options (more covered areas would be great) could have been a little better given we couldn't bring our own food and beverages in, but maybe we were unlucky with the food truck on the day of our visit. Will go again!

Wonderful family run farm! We ve been enjoying their strawberries for several weeks now. Very thankful that they have a safe option to support a local farm during these times.

Corn maze was fun and I liked that bond brothers was there (we went on a Saturday). Otherwise not much to do for adults (young adults, parents,etc.). Also, multiple employees not wearing masks correctly and about 1/3 to 1/2 of families were not wearing masks. The maze was hard to social distance in with the exit also being the entrance. I might go back to the market area soon but will not be going back to the rest of the farm (where a ticket is required) during the pandemic.

Also, even if you buy a ticket online you still have to wait in line at the ticket booth. That was not clear on the website- I paid a convenience fee thinking I wouldn t have to wait in line (to limit potential exposure) only to get there and have to wait in line with people around us not wearing masks.

we went today to their fun park, everybody was extremely rude from the very beginning, the kids wanted to slide one last time at the end when the session was over and they kicked us out, eventually said 'better make it quick', extremely rude and unpleasant experience!!! we have been to other farms and the people there care about the kids and about their customers..

Strawberries are delicious. I liked the play area for kids and the tractor ride was fun.

There's so much to enjoy and experience. Thank you for hosting Oktoberfest 2020 this year!

Family friendly, if you have kids this place is great. There is admission fees but that is with any park usually, parking was free and close by which was a plus because most parks have a fee for that. There wasn't a lot of pumpkins left but being a farmer myself I totally understand because of the two recent hurricanes we had. It was a few billion dollars in damages to our farmers crop if you watched the news. Basically if you have kids and want them to have fun this park is great.

Hated it. Very unwelcoming group. Constantly passed right by us and never once asked if they could help us.

A variety of activities most included with admission price which is well below that of other similar attractions.

Best strawberry picking in the area. Super convenient and ways a great selection. Even has a kid park area for playing.

The sun flowers weren't in perfect condition but for $5 it isn't bad. None of the staff were wearing masks even when interacting with customers.

I went here for the corn maze and there was so much things to do and the price was just right. Got to the farm at 4p and they closed at 6p. There were so much activities I didn't get to finish

Ton of fun activities for kids and adults. You can spend hrs here. We went there in the morning and stepped out for lunch and came back and spent the afternoon too.

I recently moved to the area and tried a few different strawberry farms in the area this spring...this one is my fav!! Strawberries are extremely sweet and juicy. Probably the best strawberries I ve had!

Fun and scary night! We came here in two couples and we had a pretty fun night. Their hunted farm and four attractions to visit were worth it. Get there early because long lines will form quickly.

We really enjoy their activities, and they added even more this year. It's a great family adventure for some fall weekend with tons of things to do outside, yummy kettle corn and food truck food, and a corn maze that's not at all scary that's perfect to take the little ones through. We will continue this tradition for many years to come. We love the corn pit, the "milking cows" game, the giant spider web to climb on, the pumpkin cannons, the hay ride, the cow train ride... there is SO much to do, and our girls love it.

Yikes! We went to pick pumpkins and were disappointed. First off cash only inside INCLUDES the pumpkins Most places give you a pumpkin with your ticket but not here. 10+ dollars per person for admission for basically a small playground (slide, bouncy floor area and some sand toys) and a little goat section that is fenced off. Also for people with young kids they won't allow adults anywhere (bouncy floor or slide) so your toddler will be flying solo. All there was for us to do was the slide and my almost 2 year old was too scared to go down by himself. The pumpkin patch was a total joke more then half the pumpkins were rotten. Do not waste your money plenty of nice pumpkin patches around.

We love Phillips Farms, from their Strawberries in summer, to their fun activities in the fall and Halloween, to their Christmas Trees. This is a family run operation, and they take pride and care in everything they do.

The haunted attractions at Halloween are great!

Great place me and the wife work as the Hunted actors
