Fall Family Adventure At Kersey Valley Maize Adventure
If autumn in North Carolina had a soundtrack, it would be the crunch of leaves under sneakers, the laughter of kids zipping down slides, and the soft whistle of a little train passing golden cornfields. That’s exactly the vibe at Kersey Valley Maize Adventure in Archdale, NC — a fall escape where families can spend an entire day playing, exploring, and soaking up the season.
Get Lost (on Purpose) in the Corn Maze
The star of the show is the corn maze, a winding path through towering stalks that turns a simple walk into an adventure. Whether you’re chasing kids through twists and turns or just enjoying the smell of warm earth and cut corn, the maze sets the stage for the kind of fall memories that stick.

When Day Turns to Night…
And if you’re looking for something a little… darker? Kersey Valley is also home to one of the region’s most legendary haunted attractions. When the sun goes down in October, the playful farm transforms into a scream-worthy destination. We’ll save the details for another story—but let’s just say, by nightfall, those same cornfields have a whole different personality.
Fun All Year Long
The best part? Kersey Valley fun doesn’t end when the maze closes for the season. The park is open year-round with adventures like zipline tours, indoor and outdoor ax throwing, laser tag, escape games, and the new outdoor bomb bowling. Whether it’s a crisp fall weekend or a random Tuesday in July, Kersey Valley is a place built for play.
So, pack up the family, point the GPS to Archdale, NC, and give yourself permission to spend a day doing all the “fall things” in one stop. At Kersey Valley, the season smells like corn, sounds like laughter, and feels like pure North Carolina autumn.
