It's nearly time to say goodbye to summer and hello to fall—plus all of the awesome activities it brings with it! We're more than thrilled to greet the season of hot apple cider, picking pumpkins, and stepping on crunchy leaves. In fact, we're counting down the days until one of the best corn mazes in the country opens up for the season. Named by Parade as the best corn maze in Northern California, Cool Patch should be considered a must-visit fall destination for families in NorCal.

Every year as fall arrives, Northern California families find themselves with tons of options for corn maze attractions. Each one has something unique to offer, but Cool Patch Pumpkins in Dixon has proven itself to be one of the best.

Not only is it one of the best, it's also one of the biggest. Yep, Cool Patch Pumpkins actually holds the title to "World's Largest Temporary Corn Maze" by Guinness Book of World Records. All this is to say, you're in for a great time when you visit this iconic fall attraction!

Cool Patch Pumpkins is first and foremost a pumpkin patch that has been growing and selling the seasonal squash since 1999. The owners, the Cooley Brothers, added a 15-acre corn maze in 2003 in hopes of boosting sales.

The opening date for this epic corn maze in Northern California typically takes place in late September. Cool Patch takes great pride in creating awesome fun for families with their world-renowned pumpkin patch and corn maze, and each year seems to be better than the last.

There's something about wandering around among giant corn stalks every fall that we just can't help but love. After you've made your way through the giant maze, be sure to make your way over to the concessions stand to pick up a hot coffee or cider.

Don't forget to stop by the pumpkin patch to pick yourself a pumpkin! Big ones, small ones, orange ones, green ones—they've got it all. Entering the patch is free and pumpkins are sold for a fair price based on size.

Definitely add this amazing corn maze in NorCal to your fall bucket list -- it's sure to become your new favorite fall tradition! Check out Cool Patch's Facebook page for updates regarding the corn maze and when it's expected to open for the season.
