Waterman’s Family Farm - Indianapolis IN

Our new favorite fall spot! I took my kids here on a Sunday morning in October and was so impressed with all the attractions! It was incredibly clean and well planned. Endless entertainment for a 2 and 5 year old. What really set it apart for me is the care that went into providing shaded areas, the cleanliness and the staff. There are staff at every activity monitoring and multiple offered to take pictures of me with my kids! The staff was genuinely proud of Waterman's farm and excited to make sure families enjoyed it too. There's plenty of space to run and climb. Some of the activities to give you an idea are sandboxes, various playgrounds, a hay bale mountain, corn box (sandbox filled with loose corn) petting zoo, pony rides, tractor tricycles, ball pit, slides, a large dinosaur that eats pumpkins, pumpkin painting, carnival food stands and a hayride out to a pumpkin patch. My kids especially loved the colorful plastic dinosaurs, cows and horses they could sit on. There was an entire carnival ride section that we didn't venture out to. Plan to spend an entire day!

We came here to attend the “Big Bounce America 2024” for the world record largest bounce house!! So cool that this farm held such a huge event. So many people and parking was no issue whatsoever. I will say it was very hot this day and there is no shade but it was worth it. This farm is a hidden gem right off the interstate! Would love to go back for future activities they might have.

We go here every year for the past 3 years and this year was our last. $40 to get in for 2 people. Would have been more if they had charged for my toddler to get in. Last year I think we paid $24. Everything went up. I did like that there was more to do but we didn’t stay long after we quickly ran out of money. We brought $100 thinking that was plenty and ran out of that real quick. The food was expensive, animal feed went up and they narrowed down the animals that were in the part you can go in and pet. We didn’t even make it to the hayride. I’m sure the pumpkins were probably a lot more expensive too. $40 to get in is insane. What does that even cover when you have to pretty much pay for everything once you get in. I give a 3 star because I had a good time in the past and miss that experience.

I liked it, my baby girl loved it ! They had animals, jumbo slide, hayride, food trucks. We really enjoyed ourselves. This was my first time at waterman’s family farm as well. 8/10 for me .

This experience was great! I think that admission was slightly over-priced and there are many up-sells within the venue that are not included with the admission fee. The atmosphere is festive and there are plenty of activities for family fun. The food was good, but expensive. The pumpkin patch was the highlight of the trip, with so many options for selection. The prices of the pumpkins are reasonable. The variety takes the cake. Great place to visit this fall! Especially if you have kids!
