Get Lost With Dolly Corn Maze Closing Weekend at Alpaca Acres
It's the last weekend to get lost in this year's corn maze at Alpaca Acres Farm and Fun, where the 2026 Fall Fest wraps up Friday through Sunday, Oct. 16–18. This year's "Get Lost With Dolly" maze is a tribute to the life and legacy of Dolly Parton and her Imagination Library, and visitors can choose an easy or challenging map by scanning a QR code at the entrance. Fall Fest visitors can also enter to win Dolly-inspired prizes, including a Smoky Mountain getaway with Dollywood tickets and a lodging certificate. Beyond the maze, Fall Fest includes family-friendly attractions, alpaca viewing along the fence line, a pumpkin patch, Spookley the Square Pumpkin's Storybook Trail, The Farm Store, the Farmyard Food Truck, and Big Al's Apple Cider Slushies topped with homemade cider donuts. Tickets must be purchased in advance for a specific start time, and everyone on grounds needs a ticket (no charge for children 23 months and younger). Last entry is two hours before close. The farm is cashless except for the alpaca feed machines, which take quarters. Alpaca Acres is located at 1557 Sanders Lane in Oakland. Buy Fall Fest Tickets
