About this gallery
If your kids are into pumpkin painting, pony rides and bouncy houses then head over to Arnett’s Gulfside Trailrides for the 2nd annual PumpkinFest. The 20-acre horse farm has a way of bringing the community together, so expect to run into a few friends while you’re there. The crew is throwing some hot dogs, burgers, steak and sausage on the grill so feel free to stay and play as long as you like.
Purchase activities a-la-carte, or get the whole package for twenty bucks. If you opt to do it all, you’ll get unlimited bouncy house time, a pony ride, hay ride, carrots to feed the horses, and a pumpkin. Tables are set up with glitter, paint and other crafty items so each kiddo can make their pumpkin unique. (Your child may even make friends with their pumpkin and insist on sleeping with it every night…tis the season!)
Snacks can be purchased separately or as a meal deal, and Arnett’s even has everyone’s favorite fall festival treat - cotton candy. The hay ride meanders through Point Washington State Forest along the horse trails among tall pines. And there are dozens of photo ops to capture the memory of it all.
PumpkinFest 2016 is located at Arnett's Gulfside Trail Rides on County Hwy 393 South in Santa Rosa Beach. Check out the SoWal Events Calendar for dates and times.
