Why It’s Worth the Drive
Waynesville Fall Fest was created by a local family in 2019, who transformed a former golf course into a whimsical park using rides and structures salvaged from real theme parks. That creative spirit gives the festival its one-of-a-kind character—there’s truly nothing else like it in Southwest Ohio.
Whether your family loves heart-pumping adventure, quiet nature walks, or hands-on fall activities, you’ll find it all in Waynesville.
