Best cider and donuts around, apple picking is the best, many varieties. Overall just a fantastic, quaint local orchard to spend some time with your family. I visited the winery last weekend and the apple wine is pretty good but smelled a bit skunky. Also not one mask in the place, not even the employees, so that was disappointing. They were making donuts to order for some reason so the line wrapped all the way around the building, so if you wanted donuts your only option was to crowd in for an hour packed with the maskless masses.

Now under new ownership! If you're in town, stop by to see us. The winery isn't open while we wait for licenses to transfer, but the donuts and cider are still the same. October would be a great time to visit!

We visited for the first time. It was chaos! No signs for anything. Stressed out rude employees! We came to try and pick apples. After waiting in a super long line, the employee pretty much talked us out of it. On a better note, wine tasting was nice, lady handling it was pleasant. Doughnuts are good. This place is trying to go "big time" but not set up for it. Go elsewhere until they "get it together" Disappointing experience!

Spending the weekend camping at nearby Lakewood State Park. Came across this place. The BEST blueberry donuts. Ever. Disappointed that they didnt have cider tho. Apparently it is under new ownership and they are hoping to have cider by next year. Owners very friendly. We would definitely come back.

The cider and donuts are as good as you will find anywhere. The shop is well-stocked and well-staffed. There is plenty of seating indoor and outdoor too. The playground for young kids is fun and free, but not shaded and there are animals in pens around it you can feed (quarter for a handful of feed). They offer tractor rides, produce picking, a sunflower maze, and at times other activities. When we were there, they had a bounce house that was $2 per child for 5 minutes and they were very strict about the 5 minutes, even though there were no other kids anywhere waiting a turn. Tractor rides are also $2 per person. We skipped the sunflower maze as it looked like a small corn maze and for $5 per person ($20 for a family of four) it didn't look worth it.
Sometimes on Saturdays they offer special events (kids day, classic car day) that make it special but also make it crowded.

We just visited this fall. We are local to the area, but we had no idea all the play structures they had for the kids. They have some animals as well. The store offers some food items, great donuts and lots of other specialty items. The offer u-pick and we pick options!

We stopped in here for Cider and Donuts while up this way visiting a friend. The cider was very good as were the cinnamon donuts.Expect long lines on weekends but worth the wait.

We were exploring the area near Lakeport State Park and came across the sign for this orchard. We were in the mood for plain doughnuts and fresh cider. We met he owner and asked for plain doughnuts and he told us we couldn't get them there, he only makes fresh apple and sugar coated and other varietals. We were skeptical but proceeded with caution. The cider was so good, it was subtle with several distinct flavors. So delicious. The doughnuts were also exceptional.
You can pick apples, buy toys and other farm oriented jams, honeys and even wines. They grow 16 varietals and use them all in making the cider. Delicious!!!
