One Of The Best Corn Mazes In The Country, Coppal House Farm’s Corn Maze Is a Must-Visit Fall Destination In New Hampshire
When the temperatures begin to dip in New Hampshire our immediate feeling is one of sadness. Summer is on its way out giving way to a new season that we might not be entirely ready for. But that’s quickly replaced by excitement when we remember that fall means foliage, apple cider donuts and lots of fun farm visits. Our favorite each year is this one in Lee because it has one of the best corn mazes we’ve ever seen!

One of the most beloved farms in the state also happens to offer one of the best corn mazes in the entire country. Welcome to Coppal House Farm in Lee, where fall is in the air and fun is always just around the CORNer.
Each year the farm gets a ton of attention for their Sunflower Festival. One of the best in the nation, this event draws people from all over New England (and further!) to see these beautiful, bright flowers.
But in the fall, things change and the attention is on all things autumn! And that means their famous corn maze. From ground level, things might just look like a regular farm. But take a closer look (or, a look from the sky!) and things look very special.
Coppal House Farm grows and creates a seriously special corn maze and the attention to detail is incredible. Just look at this Salamander from 2013.

But this maze isn't just a walking trip. It's really a game that has visitors look for mailboxes with trivia questions that tie back to the year's theme.
Each correct answer provides information leading to an easier route. And a wrong answer might make your trip a lot longer.
The maze is fun during the day, but those looking for an added challenge can tackle it at night. Bring a flashlight or headlamp and prepare to be a little chilly.
And, of course, we can't leave you without information about what this year's creation looks like! This blue bird will be making an appearance and we can't wait to see it.

In addition to the smell of ocean water in the air on rainy days in Portland, she loves puppies, photography, funny people, the Maine Red Claws, traveling, fresh tomatoes, Cambodia and filling out forms.
