U-pick chestnut orchard (100+ trees) at 30 Maisey Road, Gembrook, corroborated by the schoolholidaysaustralia.com.au guide (which quotes hours, pricing and cash-only policy) and by multiple independent business-listing sites giving the same address and phone (0450 694 729). Reviews found via search indicate multi-year operation ('coming for the last 4 years') though feedback on owner friendliness is mixed. Distinct from Burnarlook Llamas and Hazelnuts, the only other Gembrook entry already in the database (different address, different crop). A domain chestnutsprings.com.au appears in one directory listing but does not currently resolve, so no live website is recorded. Could not directly load the Facebook page in this session (access blocked); details are drawn from search-indexed content and the secondary source instead. [Downgraded to unconfirmed: verification relied on search-engine snippet extraction rather than a direct page fetch, per an environment-level tool restriction during the discovery run -- re-verify with a direct fetch when possible.]

How much does picking cost at Chestnut Springs?
