In Waterville, Wheeler Fams is home to The Butterfly House, and as of September 16, their corn maze is officially open for the season. Opening day was a warm one this year-with the temperature hanging out in the mid 80's. I took my Lil Mac and two of his friends to check out the maze. By the end of the afternoon, all three boys were exhausted. There are 4 different tracks of the maze, ranging in distances. The shortest one is 0.6 miles, and the longest is 3.7 miles. There are 24 checkpoints scattered through the paths. The best part (according to the boys) is that the maze has a Star Wars theme!
When your legs are tired from the maze, enjoy a horse drawn wagon ride around the farm. $3 per person.
Refreshments and snacks are available to enjoy at the picnic tables, and when the sun goes down and (if) the temperature drops, there are areas to make fires and see the stars.
