In years past, I have always gone, so this year I thought why not? and took the kids and family there, as we are a young family I assumed it would be geared towards my 1 and 3 year old to have a good time. Not the case. To get in is $16 each for adults. (thank goodness I didnt... More

Do the math. • 4 people • $5 per person general admission • $1.50 per ticket • average attraction 3 tickets each • 3 attractions in the space of out 1 1/2 hr visit. The pumpkin carvings and creatures are the best part of this park. (You can actually see them from the outside of the park and save yourself... More

What a great place Howells is! I wasnt expecting what we saw! We went only to pick out pumpkins, and realized that this family fun park was hours of fun! There was everything from the corn maze and spook barn (not gorey at all but worth the thrill!), kiddie rides, petting farm, games, shows (animals that sing), pig races (the... More

Prices online are not the prices at the Howell pumpkin farm...The tickets for the "adventure pass" were 16 dollars each at the farm but 8 dollars online. I didn't realize that until I drove over 40 minutes to get there. I spoke with management and they told me that they wouldn't match online prices but I could come back tomorrow.... More

Things at Howells have changed in the previous years as has every where else. The admission for the attractions area makes sense, its along the same princples as marineland, adults still have to pay to enter there even if they arent going to be joining their children on rides and howells is geared toward people of all ages. They have... More

Besides being SUPER over priced the farm has recently stooped to an all time low by introducing pigs races to their facility, which involve terrorizing 16 small piglets. Forcing tiny pigs into a holding cage on a racing track, filled with pumpkins for them to trip over is FAR from entertaining, family fun. I will NEVER be returning to this... More

Howells is a total rip off, I would not recommend this farm to anyone unless they want somewhere to go to waste a whole lot fo money. There is nothing to do there. We went on a school trip there recently and the only thing they used to do for the kids was get Rex the pumpkin dinosaur going and... More

Howells pumpkin farm is a good place to go to spend a day with your family and up until they started charging $15.00 to get in, I stopped going. Things are bad enough with the economy being the way it is, what about people who just want to go and walk around, have a warm drink and maybe buy a... More
