Do u have to pay for activities or is it covered in entry fee?

Jacob Boudwin | Oct 24, 2018
Kabi Boothe | Oct 24, 2018

There are a few special events (tea with the queen, beer and whiskey tastings) and games and rides that require additional fees. Food and drink are also available for purchase. For the most part, everything else is covered by the entry fee. The stage shows are free, though the performers do work for tips, so having a few dollars to put in the hat is extremely appreciated.

Kimlee Bautista | Oct 23, 2020
Robert Thornton | Oct 23, 2020

They have good food, mostly the same as any ren faire. Turkey legs, meat on a stick, all the cajun favorites (gumbo, jambalaya, etc.) They also have all sorts of great desserts like cheesecake on a stick, donuts, ice cream, funnel cakes and more. It's always been pretty good. Word of warning, the Turkey legs are popular and can sometimes run out.
