    Hands down my favorite orchard! The parking is super easy, they are so very polite, cider and donuts are delicious, you can play with goats as long as you want to, the playground is amazing, and everything for the most part is a one-time entry fee! Another very large orchard nearby charged about double the price of what we got at Westview. We chose the pick and play package, which is a ride out to the vegetable patch, pick as much as you can fit into a bin (I just cut up and froze 3 gallon size bags full of zucchini! And we still have a ton of peppers to eat for this week!), and stay to play as long as you want for $25... For the 4 of us. I think my kids spent about 45 minutes just playing with the goats! Can't wait to go back this week sometime to pick some sunflowers and maybe raspberries!

    I had my first time apple picking here. It was lots of fun riding the wagon and picking apples! There are many different varieties of apples to choose from! They also offer many fresh veggies for visitors to buy. The workers are all very nice. Definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to experience apple, pumpkin, raspberry picking in the fall!

    Me and my Daughter had a blast. Just raspberry picking and a trip to the store. Hey! It's Laurel's Birthday. So we sang to her. What a hoot! Easy parking, nice trip out to the raspberries. Kind employees. Highly recommend ☺️

    Everything they had was pretty nice, including a large play/activity area for the kids. But the experience overall is way too pricey. Fruit/veggie picking cost is more expensive than others I've been too. Also, every orchard play area I've visited is free (Though hay rides and mazes tend to cost money). But here at Westview, it cost $16 per person to go into the play area. And if you're a parent that wants to keep an eye on your kid, it's another $16 each for you, too. They do have a free seating area to eat your donuts and cider, but go figure... it's out of view of the play area. Had just as good a time as I do at other large apple orchards, but paid twice as much.

    Every year for 25 years, my family and I go to an orchard, but for the last several we have gone to Westview. Apples are great, the staff is mostly helpful and the grounds are well kept. My only issue is $27/peck plus $3 PER PERSON for the tractor ride (there's no option we saw to just walk back into the orchard that we saw.) Everything is more expensive, I get it but at $27 bucks the cost of a tractor should be included. This is a great orchard and they have really good produce (I heard people talk about it, I haven't purchased myself.) It's a good time.

    Great cider mill. We love how much there is to do. The animals are very very friendly, love pets and don’t even beg for food. They just want love. Lol. My son loved their apples and the hay area. I like that they have clean restrooms other than porta potties. Reasonably priced to do the family fun and get cider and donuts. Edit: my kids love this place!! We now live closer to it and will frequent more. Every staff member we encountered was ABOVE AND BEYOND nice. Extremely welcoming and kind and that alone will bring us back as much as possible!! Love their cider too. SO good.

    We have been going here for 6 years and have recommended to multiple people, but after today, we will never visit again. In the past, they have had reasonable prices and a lot of fun for our kids. Now, they seem to be deliberately misleading people, and their signage does not match what their actual prices are. In the past , we paid one entry fee, and we were able to access the play area and pumpkin patch. However today we were mislead that the entry fee included everything until we were done with the very disappointing play area to find out we had to pay an additional fee to get to the pumpkin patch. After paying $16 per person for the play area with a very dangerous slide that is going to injure someone, old and outdated structures and a pile of hay bails to climb on we were told there was an additional fee to go to the pumpkin patch on top of paying for the pumpkins we picked. Not only that, but they have removed some of the best features of their play area and still increased prices. Where is the jump bag and the maze that have been there in the past? If you are going to raise your price, don't remove all the fun! It is fine to update your pricing, but update your signage and don't mislead people. On top of the disappointment with the pricing, their staff is extremely rude and wanted to attack us and make rude comments in front of our children. Since when does asking for clarification on your policies result in your staff making rude comments to young children? After such a horrible experience, we made the mistake of buying their "fresh" donuts, and not only were they overpriced, but they were horrible. It's so sad that a place we looked forward to going to every year has become such a disappointment!!

    Been coming here for years. This year we came they closed down the 3 attractions while we were there for no reason. Now they charge 2 separate admissions for apple picking and entering the orchard. It’s ridiculous because once you get inside after paying both admissions they still charge for the attractions inside even though they closed half of the ones included with price of admission. They only had 2 apples that were ready for picking. I understand they need to charge to stay open but when you are closing things and still increases prices that’s not right. Won’t be coming back.

    Wonderful family owned establishment with a little bit of everything. Cider, donuts, fruits, veggies, wine, snacks and so much more. Large variety of activities for kids and families. So many great events offered throughout the year as well. Not sure why so many negative reviews, prices are available before purchasing, so if not in your budget they aren't forcing you to pay. The porch winery and the upstairs winery so cute with a great variety for purchase.

    Great place. Cute market (with a long line always ) so much fun stuff for kids . Lots of room to roam and run . The tractor rides are fun. They take you out to the pumpkin patch, which is humongous. So many different pumpkins to pick from. Like everywhere a little bit pricey but that’s what we call inflation right? Worth the drive fun place to visit. Definitely check them out. We go every year. At least once.🎃🎃

    Beautiful property with activities for all ages. Tasty cider and donuts, but go early to get the sprinkle and pumpkin donuts - they sell out by the afternoon. Very busy with long lines (although I think that means they're doing something right). The wine slushy is my favorite at the winery! It was my first time there and I appreciated being able to sample different wines to figure out what I wanted to purchase. Free and easy parking.

    Family fun area has a ton of great activities for kids, reasonably priced compared to other cider mills. Cider and donuts are delicious. Not as crowded as Blake's either.

    Beautiful place. The gkids had a blast. We all went pumpkin picking in the patch, played in the play area, drank cider, and ate donuts.

    We showed up this past Saturday at Westview Orchards to get family photos after driving an hour away. We showed up at 5:03pm and got denied getting a tractor ride out to the sunflower field because the last one left right at 5pm!!! Make sure you arrive EARLY because there are no exceptions. Disappointed due to the fact that we took family photos here 2 years ago along with offering to walk out to the sunflower field, the lady said it was a mile walk and then continued to clean and ignore us, not friendly whatsoever. Thankfully Romeo Lavender Farm was able to accommodate us for our family photos!

    Nice wagon ride out to the sunflowers! Nice variety and sizes. Got to sit in the goat pen and pet the baby goats so cute! The wine porch was fun, we had Etivia all to ourselves she was fun! The tasting are free! Yippee. A wine slushy is a must have! A great afternoon!

    Have been going to westview for ages. Went to pick raspberries this past weekend. We had the best tractor driver in Randy 😀☺️ had a great conversation. But sadly we were pretty disappointed in the flavor of the raspberries. Paid $7x4 for raspberries that tasted terrible. I know they can’t really control the taste. But why sell it to your customers and disappoint everyone. Even tried baking with them but it was just awful. Only plus we’re the cute pics. 😓

    Beautiful place! In sumer they have a large variety of produce u-picks and ready to buy at their market too. In summer, my favorite is u-pick sweet cherry and sunflowers. In Autumn as well, they have apple and pumpkins u-pick. There are some farm animals you can feed and pet. A wooden playground, picnic tables, and restrooms are available. Friendly staff. There is plenty of free parking lot. They sell cider and donuts.
