THINGS TO DO
A-Maze-N-Cane
If you're visiting Berrien County in the Fall, you may enjoy a trip to A-Maze-N-Cane. A winding maze in a 9-acre cane field that makes for an afternoon or evening of fun! Marshmallow roasting, cane chewing, cane juice tasting, farm animals, corn hole games and our very popular kids obstacle course are some of the other attractions offered.
