Rural Hill Corn Maze
The overview

What to expect.

One of Lake Norman’s favorite fall traditions is back! 🌽🍂

The Rural Hill Corn Maze returns to Historic Rural Hill in Huntersville for weekends September 5 through October 31.

"

Editor’s Take: If your fall checklist includes pumpkins, hayrides and getting hopelessly lost in a cornfield, this one checks all the boxes. 🍁 We especially love the Night Maze—bring a flashlight, grab your favorite people and see who actually has a sense of direction once the sun goes down. Rural Hill is one of those Lake Norman traditions that makes it officially feel like fall.

This year’s maze gives a nod to Rural Hill’s Scottish roots, with a design featuring a bagpiper and Highland cow. Make your way through the twists and turns while searching for game stations to complete your game sheet—or forget the strategy and just see where the corn takes you.

And the maze is only part of the fall fun. Make a day of it with a tractor-pulled hayride around the farm, pick out a pumpkin to take home, grab something from one of the visiting food trucks, and let the kids burn off some energy in the bounce houses.

Looking for a little more adventure? Night Maze returns in October on Friday and Saturday evenings. Bring a flashlight and try finding your way through the corn after dark. 🔦🌽

📅 Weekends September 5–October 31 📍 Historic Rural Hill | 4431 Neck Road, Huntersville ☀️ Day Maze: Friday–Sunday, 10 AM–5 PM 🌙 Night Maze: Friday & Saturday nights in October, beginning at 5 PM

Whether it’s an annual family tradition or your first time getting completely turned around in a field of corn, Rural Hill is one of those quintessential Lake Norman fall outings.

FAQ

Common Questions

Do I need to bring a flashlight for the Night Maze?
Definitely a good idea. Rural Hill specifically recommends flashlights for its Night Maze. A headlamp could also be a handy option if you want to keep your hands free.
What should I wear to the corn maze?
Think farm, not sidewalk. Comfortable closed-toe shoes and clothes you don't mind getting a little dusty are a good bet. After rain, be prepared for potentially muddy outdoor conditions.
Is there food at the Rural Hill Corn Maze?
Yes. Rural Hill plans to have food trucks during maze season, although the lineup varies, so check their social channels for who's scheduled when you visit.
Where should I park/enter Rural Hill?
Use the entrance at 4431 Neck Road in Huntersville. Rural Hill specifically warns visitors that there is no public access from Jim Kidd Road, even if GPS tries to send you that way.
