haunted straw maze or simply enjoying the cozy charm of the pumpkin patch, The Escape Straw Maze is the ultimate destination for fall fun.

🌀 Find Your Way Through the Straw Maze Adventure


Kick off your visit by testing your sense of direction in our
Straw Maze Adventure — a fun-filled labyrinth made entirely of straw bales stacked high above your head. It’s perfect for kids, teens, and adults who love a challenge. Each turn keeps you guessing as you try to find your way out. The maze changes every year, so even returning visitors get a brand-new experience!

Families often make this the first stop of their visit, turning it into a friendly competition — who can escape the maze the fastest? It’s the kind of simple, pure fun that captures the spirit of the season.

👻 Brave the Haunted Straw Maze After Dark


When the sun sets, the atmosphere transforms. The Escape Straw Maze becomes
The Haunted Straw Maze, where brave souls can wander through dark corridors filled with eerie surprises, sudden scares, and hauntingly creative twists.


Open on weekend nights, this attraction is not for the faint of heart — but it’s a thrilling experience for those who love Halloween chills. You never know what’s lurking behind the next turn. The screams, laughter, and adrenaline make it one of the most talked-about
haunted attractions in Idaho. Bring your friends, hold on tight, and see if you can make it out unscathed!


🎃 Pick Your Perfect Pumpkin at the Patch


No fall season is complete without a trip to the
pumpkin patch. At The Escape, visitors can stroll through rows of bright orange pumpkins of all shapes and sizes — ideal for carving, decorating, or baking a delicious pumpkin pie.


Families love taking photos among the pumpkins, making it a must-stop spot for your
fall photoshoot in Idaho. Kids can pick their own pumpkins to take home, while parents enjoy the rustic beauty of the countryside. Whether you’re looking for a big pumpkin for carving or a small one for your kitchen table, you’ll find it here.


🌽 Let the Kids Play in the Corn Pit


For younger visitors, the
Corn Pit is a kid-favorite attraction where little ones can dig, play, and roll around in a soft, safe pit filled with corn kernels. It’s a sensory experience that delights toddlers and gives parents a chance to relax while watching their kids have a blast.


The Corn Pit is a reminder that sometimes, the simplest activities create the best memories. Don’t forget your camera — the laughter and joy are picture-perfect!


🐐 Meet the Friendly Animals at the Petting Zoo


Get up close and personal with friendly farm animals in our
Petting Zoo. From goats and calves to adorable bunnies, this is where kids and adults alike can experience the warmth of country life.


Petting the animals, feeding them, and learning about farm life makes this hands-on attraction both educational and heartwarming. It’s one of the reasons families come back every year. The animals love the attention — and you’ll love the smiles it brings to everyone’s faces.


🍔 Refuel with Food Trucks & Refreshments


After exploring the maze and visiting all the attractions, nothing beats a tasty treat from our
local food trucks and vendors. Choose from warm snacks, refreshing drinks, and sweet desserts that perfectly match the cozy fall vibe.


Whether you’re sipping hot cocoa, enjoying a caramel apple, or grabbing a hearty burger, our food court area is the ideal place to relax and recharge. Supporting local food vendors also adds to the community spirit that makes The Escape Straw Maze such a beloved part of Idaho’s fall celebrations.
