We came here for the tulip festival and were pleasantly surprised! I kind of expected it to be underwhelming. When I moved to Iowa 4 years ago everyone talked about Pella's tulips which were really restricted to little patches through the town. This was an actual field of tulips!!! Not as big as the Netherlands or even Holland, Michigan, but still very substantial for Midwestern America! IT WAS BEAUTIFUL!!!
After strolling through the tulip fields, we visited with the animals, went through the farm market, and enjoyed other various activities. The geode cracking was pretty cool. My personal favorite is probably the slides. There's a short hay ride if you want. This place was so much fun for children and adults, alike. You also get a lot of bang for your buck! There are so many activities for the just the price of admission. The animal feed is also really cheap. We got our tickets during the flash sale so the deal was even sweeter! There are wooden stands in front of most of the photo ops so you don't even have to bring a selfie stick. The staff is also more than happy to take your photo! Everyone there was beyond wonderful!
