Dawsonville, GA, September 21, 2024 – Looking for the perfect fall adventure in Georgia? Uncle Shuck’s, located in Dawsonville, has just earned national recognition, ranking No. 9 on USA Today’s 10Best Corn Mazes list and No. 7 on the 10Best Pumpkin Patches list for 2024. These lists, curated by travel experts and voted on by readers, highlight the best autumn attractions in the U.S., and Uncle Shuck’s is the only Georgia spot to make the cut.
Why Uncle Shuck’s Stands Out
Known for its family-friendly fall festivities, Uncle Shuck’s offers a classic autumn experience with its sprawling pumpkin patch, corn maze, and a variety of other fun-filled activities. Here’s what USA Today’s 10Best had to say about the attractions:
- Pumpkin Patch: Uncle Shuck’s is a pumpkin lover’s paradise, offering a wide selection of pumpkins perfect for baking, carving, and decorating. After picking the perfect pumpkin, guests can enjoy wagon rides and try their hand at the corn cannon.
- Corn Maze: This year’s maze honors Smoky Bear’s 80th birthday, with the design offering two interconnected mazes. One takes about 30 minutes to complete, while both together can take up to two hours. The maze spans an impressive 15 acres and includes 6 miles of twisting trails.
For thrill-seekers, Uncle Shuck’s corn maze transforms on Friday and Saturday nights in October into The Dark Rows—a haunted version of the maze, perfect for those looking for a spookier experience.
More Activities at Uncle Shuck’s
Beyond the maze and pumpkin patch, Uncle Shuck’s offers several other activities for visitors of all ages:
- Wagon Rides: Enjoy a scenic ride through the farm and its vibrant fall landscape.
- Corn Cannons: Take aim and fire corn at targets.
- Goat Walk: Feed goats as they traverse an elevated walkway.
- Bonfires & Marshmallows: Relax by a bonfire with marshmallows, creating the perfect cozy fall atmosphere.
- Jumping Pad: A fun activity for kids to burn off some energy after exploring the farm.
Hungry? The concessions stand offers festival favorites like turkey legs, fried PB&J sandwiches, boiled peanuts, and funnel cakes. Visitors can enjoy these treats while they explore or relax by the bonfire.
