A visitor writes on October 25, 2009:
"five stars. I went with my wife kids( 6 and 3) and my mom.
everyone had great fun. kids loved the corn maze and the hay ride
where they also fed the cows. great outdoor activity for kids."
A visitor writes on October 17, 2009:
"Our family visited this farm today October 17, 2009. We had a
fantastic time. We live in Florida and it is hard to find a place
to get the feel of Autumn. We are from upstate New York and
always long for the kind of pumkin patches we had there. We
traveled to North Georgia last year to get some Autumn scenery,
but found Coon Hollo to just the ticket this year and it is right
in our own back yard. The owners were friendly and accomodating.
The Corn Maze was out of this world, and the Hay Ride was 35
minutes long and went over hill and over dale through the woods
and back again. Our kids are 11, 9, and 5, boys and girls - there
was something to do that was age appropriate for everyone. There
was a little country store, and a concession type food stand. The
setting was perfect - in the country, on an actual farm property.
The only down side was that there weren't many pumpkins, and they
don't have any farm animals (1 cow)that you can get up close and
personal with. We spent two and a half hours there, and our kids
loved it. I do think the admission ticket price was a little high
it was $33 for our family of 5, but everything was included.
We'll definitely go back next year if they do it again."

A visitor writes on October
25, 2010: "We took the trip from Jacksonville to visit Magnolia
Farms on October 24. It was a very interesting experience. Not at all
what I had pictured from the description is found on multiple
websites, including their own. At day we visited, there were no corn
mazes, no hayrides, no face painting. There were plenty of animals
about though, and my son quite enjoyed that. If you go for the "milk
goat tour" be prepared for some rather explicit information about
breeding. If your kids don't know about the birds and the bees, you
may want to skip the tour. I do think the entry price was a bit
steep for what was offered. The pumpkin selection was somewhat slim,
but we did manage to find four nice ones. The produce was nice and
the pumpkin muffins were tasty. Overall, we had a good time and I
greatly respect the work they are doing there, but I think next
year, we will find something a little more kid friendly. "
