King Richard's Faire Bad Reviews?

We wanted to take the kids to a Renassiance Faire for a homeschool field trip since this was a topic that our oldest son was studying in 8th grade. Our first choice was to revisit the King Richard's Faire in Carver, MA.

However after reading mostly bad reviews found on the internet and how they didn't even allow you to bring bottled water into the faire (or even allow kosher food for those on a strict dietary need). Along with the price gourging (and the need to use tickets vs. cash) we decided to skip this non-family friendly event and make the extra mile to the Connecticut Renassiance Faire in Hebron, CT. Great Choice! We had a great time without spending a fortune. More to come on this soon!
