I was up at Jiminy Peak in October for a wedding and went to this orchard in the morning. They had so many different types of apples and the place was relatively empty. I've never been to another orchard with such a variety that late in the season. Donuts are also right out of the oven. Can't beat this place.

Probably the largest PYO in the area. Pick apples, drink cider and take the kids through one of two mazes. They can also pet the farm animals and buy pumpkins in season.

Great food, great rides and overall a fun place to visit and shop. The Farm is actually much bigger then it seems so don't be afraid to ask for directions.

This place has hands-down the best donuts that I've ever had in my life. Warm and cakey right out of the oven. I was in heaven! They also have amazing apple cider. The apple picking was fun, but I'll be back for the cider and donuts. Seriously. Get a donut.

Been taking the kids here since they were little. Now they are in college and still come home for Apple picking and hay rides!

Truth be told we live near by, but still loving spending a few hours picking apples, taking a hayride, and getting cider donuts!! It does get very crowded...go early...arrive by 10, or go late arrive at 3....or pick a day with just "so-so" weather.Enjoy!!

Visiting HPH Farm is always on my list when I'm in the area in the Fall. The apples are most excellent and the ability to taste-test the varieties in the store is fun. There's nothing like a cold, crisp apple fresh off the tree. Their off-shoots - cider, donuts, pies, candy apples... are likewise tasty. The Farm offers picked apples, u-pick apples, hay rides, pumpkins, some farm animals (goats, pigs, rabbits), a hedge maze, orchards to stroll in, and a grill for hot-dogs, etc. Plan on spending a few hours. I see that they also accommodate parties as well. This place is popular and crowded on Fall weekends, so yes there will be parking and line issues at times, but that is to be expected if you come at the peak times. All-in-all, it's a great place to go and have some fun. Admission, strolling, apple samples, and animals exhibits are free. Nominal charges for other things.

We spent a couple of hours Apple Picking. We all loved the experience. We took the hay ride and the kids did the Maze and found it to be a load of fun. The price was very reasonable considering we brought back about 23 lbs of hand picked apple back with us. We highly recommend this farm.

First time here, but certainly not the last! We spent all afternoon at honey pot hill and it was such a gorgeous day for it, sunshine galore. My bff and I had never been there so we weren't sure what to expect, but everything was very organized and easy to find. The staff were mainly made up of high schoolers and it was great service all around. & of course the apples were to die for!! If I lived closer I'd go every week =)Go before all the beautiful foliage is over!

Don't have a birthday party here! I called 2 days before the party to see if the bouncy house would still be available if it rains. I was told by Rita, " it will be there." Upon arrival, it wasn't set up. After it was blown up our coordinator, recommended not using it in the rain because there was a screen on top of it. It wasn't covered at all. So, there we were in the rain, 20 adults and 30 kids, huddled under or 20x20 tent for 35 minutes. We asked for some compensation, as I had specifically called about this and was assured it would be usable. I was told that it was an all inclusive and that technically it was available so we would not get any money back. I asked Rita if she would have used the bouncy house and she snapped back, "I haven't seen it." I'll never go back and will discourage people to go go there after such a rude remark. I am their ideal customer, a repeat, formally happy customer. Not anymore! Never again!

We have gone to honey pot for the last three years. We have always enjoyed Apple picking there. Today was beyond packed and my husband waited in line for 45 plus minutes to get a pie. After we walked over to the orchard to start picking. My very excited four year old took off running with our empty bag. At that point an employee stopped me to ask me if I had a bag that we paid for, she basically insinuated that we were stealing apples. I told her that we did indeed have an empty bag and we are not the type of people to steal apples, she replied "you would be surprised". Needless to say we won't be back.

There are tons of things to do here and it's very kid friendly; great for a family day. Aside from apple or pear picking there are hay rides, hedge maze, small barnyard animals, store, etc. We went on a Saturday the last weekend of September and it was extremely crowded. The lines was an hour long wait for the donuts and candied apples so we skipped it. The lines in the store and hayrides were long too. If you can tolerate the crwod and long lines then there is plenty of fun things to do.

The day we went apple picking for the 1st time ever just happened to be one that turned out to be very sunny which is great but along with the sun came the humidity & massive crowds of people. We had no chance to enjoy a lazy autumn day in the orchards. The line for the hayride was so long there was no way my little ones could have have waited in the sun & heat that long. In the store there was a line around the entire perimeter just to get into the fridge for a drink - & nearly had my hand taken off by pushy people with no patience left. Unfortunately the line to get the good stuff, donut s & other yummy desserts, was also way to long to sit through so we had to make do with just our apples. All in all it was OK, I think had there not been hundreds of other people it would have been much, much better.

We've visited this orchard for years. We never pick apples, just buy the big bags in the store. The apples are wonderful, you can taste the different varieties before you buy, and the staff are friendly and helpful. We were buying apples for applesauce and they promptly made up large bags for us when asked (cheaper than buying two smaller bags.) They also sometimes offer discount bags of "seconds" - maybe not too pretty to look at but perfect for cooking.Honey Pot Hill also sells peaches, pears, cider doughnuts, and cider, and they have lots of activities for kids.The parking lot gets a bit crazy, especially on weekends.

We had the most wonderful day picking apples. Try your best to go on a week day. It can be very very busy on the weekend. We went today, a Friday, and it was families with younger kids and middle aged people with no kids like us.We arrived not long after opening and went directly to the orchard. The apples were beautiful and plentyful. It is a bit expensive. It was $16 per person to get a middle size bag. That was our choice, we could have done it for $8.00 each and shared the bag but we did not want to do that. They also have a large bag for $20. We had fun so it was worth it. We also went on the hay ride which was a 15 minute ride through the orchard for $2.00. There is a store that sells apples, donuts, pies and more. The pumpkins were out and ready for sale too. They have sheep, goats, pigs and rabbits to feed and see. The maze looked interesting but we did not go in because we did not have the time to spend to get ourselves out again. It is a hedge maze and really interesting to see. We will go back.
