There aren’t many things more fun than corn mazes, and it turns out one of the best ones in the country is right down the road in South Carolina. Our sister station in Fayetteville brought this to our attention and being just a short drive away we had to share! This list is according to USA Today’s 10 Best team. USA Today readers helped to pick out the best places to escape reality and get lost in the giant corn stalks.

“Each autumn, farms across the country transform their cornfields into interactive mazes, perfect for a fall family outing,” USA Today said in their rankings. “There are more than 500 of these mazes across the nation, but our readers have helped us narrow it down to 10 of the most exemplary, both for the quality of the maze itself and for the wealth of other activities that are offered.”

We’ve got plenty of great corn mazes locally too if that's your kind of fall family fun! You don’t have to drive all the way to Anderson, South Carolina for the fun but it will be worth it if you do! The top corn mazes are spread throughout the country, not just in the famous “corn” states. From California to Maine, and Michigan to South Carolina everywhere is represented on this list.
