Brookdale Farms

"I would love to give this place 5 stars, but I can only do three. Here’s why. When we first get here (we not anyone in my group had ever been here before) there was no one directing traffic, nor any signage whatsoever telling us where the entrance was. We see a tractor go into what appears to be the parking area. We pull in and once in going down the one lane gravel lane we realize we pulls in the exit and not the entrance. Got plenty of dirty looks, oh well too late now. When we find our parking spot we park at the end of an already well established row matter of fact we were the last in the row to park. And again no parking attendant at this time directing traffic. 3 cars had pulled in right behind me in front of of cars of an established row. There was still about 1 1/2 -2 car lengths between us. We get out and wait for my son and his family to get out of their car which was next to us. We wait there almost 20 minutes while they get the grandkids out in the stroller etc. the people that pulled in behind us is also getting out of there cars. All of a sudden a young parking attendant probably in his 20’s shows up. Stand there for about 5 minutes. My wife has to get in our truck to get something so I unlock it she gets it we shut it back up and lock it back. The attendant asks if that’s my truck I said yes. He says you have to move it. I asked why he said because the people behind me can’t get out. I laughed and said I believe there’s more than plenty of room for them to get out. He proceeded to tell me I’m wrong and I had better move. I asked the people behind me if they have enough room to get out when they’re ready to leave. They looked at the space between us also laughed and said I think we can make that. Yet the attendant still demanded I move. I told him really if your going to make someone move it should be the three cars behind me that clearly parked wrong not me. We walked away. There was not enough grounds attendants to be sure there little attractions where safe. At the bouncy houses they had teenagers overseeing them. Well at one of them there were 10-12 year old kids climbing and jumping on the top over the play area and could fall on littler kids beneath them. I asked one of the girls attending there should they be up there like that. She said I’ve told them all day they won’t stop and I don’t care anymore. No don’t get me wrong, my family and I did enjoy our time there and we do plan to go back next year. I believe they need to have better trained staff and have signs as to the parking and what’s not allowed at the attractions. Also… the bees were horrible couldn’t enjoy a beer or drink at all."

"Our family had a blast here with their Fall Activities. The variety of what’s available makes it highly enjoyable - ropes course, giant game sets, cornhole, live music, hayrides, inflatables, playground, swings, pumpkin patch, corn maze, and I could honestly going on and on. Most things were included in the cost of admission and there was no parking fee which was a wonderful reprieve from feeling like you’re being nickel and dimed everywhere else."

"I am slacking, and behind schedule, but here goes nothing: Special shout out to Danyelle and Catrina! Another great turnout for my wife’s baby shower! Brookdale Farms holds such a special place in our family’s lives. We got married here, we bring our kids here for all fun and entertaining events, and we support local business! Both of these fine women have surpassed everything that I could have ever asked for. Everything that I originally requested for, it was considered done, AND then some! I’m telling you all, this is the place to be if you want to visit Eureka! You will have the best experience EVER! Thank you to both women, and the entire staff at BDF for making this happen for my wife & family!"

"My rating is based on our recent experience..first I was unable to buy our tickets online which would have saved us $$. Then part of the attraction wasn't open and when you tell a bunch of little kids there is a petting zoo and you get there and they tell you it isn't open it makes for a stressful start. Also their post on Facebook doesn't tell you that the price of admission $14.00 for 3 and up (more than most of the other comparable places) doesn't cover some of the activities on the property. It is a very well kept venue with several large blowup bounce houses and slides that all kids love but for the money in my opinion there are better options in the area."

"Fun was had by us all! Great food trucks. Rodeo was interesting. The military vehicles were a hit by so many children & adults. We could not get my nephew away from them. In addition, the PAW Patrol, the Maze & and slide."
