As the geese overhead signal the onset of brisk days that turn into colder nights, it is time to bundle up and meander through one of the corn mazes located in the Detroit Metro area. Corn mazes are an amazing feat of nature, that, with the help of human hands, are transformed into something miraculous. Mazes offers children, teens and adults the opportunity to have unabashed fun or experience extreme terror, either of which will be the source of great memories for years to come.

DeBuck's Corn Maze and Pumpkin Patch offers a great fall adventure that may become a tradition each year as the chill begins to settle in for the long haul. There are over 13 acres of pathways that meander around the tall stalks of corn that have been reaching for the sky all summer. The "Giant Corn Maze" gives visitors three mazes to choose from, each more difficult than the next. Go during the day or scare yourself silly by attempting to reach the end of the maze in the dark, only led by the single beam of light coming from a flashlight. Adjacent to the mazes is a pumpkin patch and play area featuring barnyard animals, go cart racing and a tubular slide.
