Welcome to the Maewood

Maewood Enchanted Forest is intended for all ages. Our classic experience is intended to be magical, exciting and adventurous. During Halloween, things will be spooky in a family friendly way. While some young children may get scared, our goal is NOT to terrify you. 

While we love classic Halloween haunts, that is not us. 

You may see bones, skulls, and rot/slime but our event does not contain gore, or excessive blood. 

We have some specific designated evening time-slots that ARE scary and where the actors will chase you. However, even at these times our goal is not to send you home in terror – it’s for you to have fun. 

Maewood is open to all ages but primarily geared towards age 5 and up. Younger children will require assistance with activities and exploring the forest. 

We recommend planning for approximately a 1.5-2 hour stay including time spent at the Pavilion & Carnival area and out in the Forest.

Length of time will also be greatly impacted by how fully you engage in the content.

We kindly ask all guest limit their time to a maximum of 4 hours.

Unlike many attractions, Maewood is a living world. While our characters have specific tasks & challenges to give out, they do not have set lines or dialogue. Characters locations can vary from time to time.

This ensure that every trip to Maewood will be new and exciting and no two groups will have the exact same experience.

As we grow, we will continue to add more variety to our event including limited time events and special characters.

Maewood Forest is located on 40 incredible acres and is entirely fenced.

The primary attraction is approx 10 acres and consist of a creek, pond, forest, meadows, and low hills.

Parking is free, and while we encourage carpooling, there is plenty of space. Please follow the signs upon arrival.

Please dress for the weather as the Maewood experience is primarily outdoors with some sheltered/covered areas. In cold weather wear layers and in the warm months sunscreen and bug spray.

We highly recommend closed toed footwear for traversing the trails (no crocs or sandals). 

We love costumes! Attendees are encouraged to dress up in their best Medieval or Fantasy attire, however, you may not wear masks or cover your face in any way.

Attendees may NOT bring any form of weapon including any and all prop weapons such as those made from foam, plastic, wood, or any other replica.

LARPers please save your LARP swords for our LARP nights or other LARP events.

2026 Maewood will feature a Snack bar with drinks like Coffee & Hot Chocolate as well as simple snacks like popcorn.

We look forward to expanding our menu in future years and ensuring that our offerings our on theme with the rest of the Enchanted Experience.

Our washroom facilities currently consist of porta-potties & handwashing stations. 

We look forward to the day when we can upgrade to flush toilets to better accommodate our guests.

Our attraction is designed in such a way that any strenuous activities can be skipped or passed by at your discretion. 

If you are pregnant, you are not allowed to participate in Foam Sword battles in the arena. 

We encourage anyone who is pregnant to consult their doctor prior to attending an follow all recommendations of a healthcare professional.

Strollers and wagons are welcome for transporting little ones (and sleds in the winter). 

In the Forest we recommend wagons rather than strollers as they are easier on the varied terrain.

Some areas of the Forest contain bright or flashing lights and fog effects.

Any areas with strobe effects will be labelled.

If you are running late for your chosen time slot we will simply shift you to the next one.

No need to message or call ahead to notify us.

All tickets are non-refundable and non-transferable to other nights.

You may transfer your tickets to other people. 

In case of emergency guest should evacuate to the designated Muster Zone at the far side of the parking lot.

If you become lost within the Forest simply head in one direction until you reach the fence line and then follow along the line until you reach the exit.

Normally the Enchanted Forest will run rain, snow, or shine. 

Cancellations due to extreme weather (thunderstorm, lighting, extreme winds, blizzard, extreme heat or cold) will be announced on our social media & sent to ticket holders by email.

In the event of cancellation ticket holders may reschedule their tickets to another date or transfer for them to another attendee. Refunds will not be issued.
