The Mesilla Valley Maze

Seriously disappointed! A very overpriced park. They should really consider cutting the price in half for what they offer, especially for their own community. Pretty much a homemade park built with plastic pipes and spray painted tires. The hay ride was nice and the drivers even nicer… until we got to the pumpkin patch. There are NONE left worth taking home. The whole idea is to come home with a pumpkin. Kids were very disappointed. At the very least, they should hang a sign before you buy a ticket warning the potential customer that the pumpkins are no longer available. At least the consumer has the option of not buying a ticket. Totally misleading. Only good thing about it was the drivers were nice and the concessions were reasonably priced. It should not cost a family of four $ 50 dollars and that doesn’t even include a pumpkin. Save yourself the disappointment and your money…

This was our second year going to The Mesilla Valley Maze. We love the family fun they have. The admission pricing went up this year but it includes so much so it’s still definitely worth it. The staff they have were great and always very friendly. The tractor driver that took us out to get pumpkins was super helpful and funny too! Parking is free and the food is decent. Our kids had a blast and my husband and I had a great time too! We did just about every attraction they had there and we plan on going back again next year!
The pumpkin pricing is also very cheap! It comes out cheaper than you think based on the same sizing and pricing the show. That was a plus! We spent $ 4 on 3 medium sized pumpkins!

The Mesilla Valley Maze was a complete disappointment, the only thing this place does well is bleed the unsuspecting visitor of their hard earned cash. The place is completely overpriced with admission fees costing a family of four $ 44 just to get in. The admission is supposed to allow the visitor unlimited access to a lot of games and activities, but these turned out to be pretty anticlimactic. Seemed like just about all the attractions were comprised of recycled tractor tires stacked and/​or half buried in different configurations. As for the corn maze, I’m not sure if there was an object to the maze, it felt more like cornfield with a bunch of interconnecting trails running through it. Though biggest let down to the whole Mesilla Valley Maze experience was their pumpkin patch. The hay ride to the patch was ok, I guess, but the patch had been so picked over that the only thing left were the deformed rotting rejects that nobody wanted. My kids left the pumpkin patch empty handed and yet the staff was still hauling unwary customers out there by the dozens. Save yourself a letdown and pass this one by…

Really Great! The folks that do this every year deserve a lot of credit for creating something that has become a bit of a LC tradition. There isn’t much to say except that it is a challenging corn maze, which changes each year, and is well worth your time and money. Ever since I saw The Shining as a kid, mazes made of live plants have intrigued me to no end. It is great fun navigating it each year!

October for me means cooler temperatures, apples, pumpkins and corn mazes. This corn maze is one of my favorites I’ve been to. Besides the actual maze, there is a pretty big play area for the kids. There are hay rides available, a pumpkin patch, snacks and all sorts of family fun. If you live close to here, this is a definite must!
