Rise of the Jack O'Lanterns question

Is there a concrete/cement path, or are you walking on grass the whole time? Is it easy to maneuver a stroller through the display?

I think it was mostly over bare ground and maybe a short section with gravel? It's been a few years. I took my stroller and it was fine, but I have a pretty easy to maneuver stroller.

I haven't been there in two years, but I am pretty sure I remember people with strollers.

ETA - what I didn't like about the stroller was trying to get DD a closer look at the display with all the people that push to the front and take a long time...but, I'd probably opt to take the stroller again.

Re: Rise of the Jack O'Lanterns question

We went 2 years ago (I think) and it was not easy to maneuver. It was raining (pouring!) when we went of course and we just had my older DD at the time and walking around with her in the rain with the crowds was such a pain. She liked the pumpkins and it was partly paved/gravel but it was pretty muddy in spots. We tried to get out of there as soon as possible. Without rain it might be ok but if you're going this weekend, I think it might be annoying trying to get a stroller through (I have an older Graco so that's not easy to move around to begin with) and dealing with the mud and wet grass. Again, this was 2 years ago though so maybe it's different now. Chat Icon

This. If you have a jogging stroller or something easy to push, go with that. I think an umbrella stroller would probably be hard to push.

We went last year and a lot of people had strollers. It was dark, but I think we were on dirt paths and grass.

We had a wagon last year and I remember it being paved in the beginning and then gravely towards the end. My mom had her electric scooter and said it was like off roading at the end

Re: Rise of the Jack O'Lanterns question

It's a cleared path. A stroller is a pita though bc of the crowds.

Pretty sure they allow single strollers but not side-by-side doubles. Read the FAQs on the site.

We go every year and bring our stroller no problem. The paths are stroller friendly.
