We had the best experience having my daughters 7th birthday party at Lambs Farm. They offer a puppy party which was such a big hit for the kids. They bring the puppies they have for adoption to the visitor center for the kids to play! They included a painting party! Afterwards we reserved a party room at their magnolia cafe where we had excellent service. We are so happy and would highly recommend this to anyone looking to host a birthday party!! read more

Visiting Lambs Farm is pure nostalgia! The place hasn't changed in 30 years and that's why we love it! My kids had the most wonderful time today interacting with so many animals and I absolutely love supporting this mission as well! Yes, it is out dated but it is also extremely affordable, simple, easy, and the animals are well cared for and truly loved. The lady in the indoor area couldn't have been nicer and took out the bearded dragon for my kids to touch. Check out the Magnolia Cafe too for a nice meal or tasty treat. read more

I've come to visit the farmyard a couple times throughout the years and was interested in the renovation happening. I've seen the construction from the highway and what maybe looked like animals on the other side of the lake so I went to go look. The animals are in fact living behind Lambs Farm in some maintenance area? I just walked right on back there and looked at the animals. A couple of machines and lots of trucks everywhere. A few minutes in of walking around and I found glass on the ground! A bunch of cigarettes everywhere and some random metal pieces? This is insane for animals to live in this condition. Unbelievable. The animals are really living in shipping containers and tents. No other shelter. I follow Lambs on Facebook and had no idea this is all they were offered. I noticed a couple rips in the tents and wasn't able to see the shipping containers clearly but they look very rusty. The animals are sinking in mud! The baby horses are filthy and covered in dirt. A bit weird there were a bunch of apple pieces in some of the cages on the ground. This winter was one of the worsts and I hope all these babies did well during the cold. I also took a trip to the Pet Shop because I love looking at those puppies. One of the puppies constantly screaming. I hope they get attention from staff. I saw the tortoises and cats living there that used to live at the farm. I am wondering where all the other smaller animals live like the birds, guinea pigs, chinchillas and snakes hoping they're in better conditions. read more

Puppy Party! Best place to have a birthday party. We have done this twice and it's always so much fun. Kids get to play with puppies, in a large indoor space, for an hour. After the party, we all walked over to the cafe and had a wonderful, inexpensive breakfast. They even have a party room. Everyone was so friendly and the kids had the best time. Highly recommend! read more

It's a family must especially in the summer time! We go every year and our kids love it. It does seem to get a little bit more run down every year we go but our kids don't mind. Admission is only $5 per person and kids 2 and under are free. A bag of hay to feed the animals is $2. With admission you get to play mini golf and get to ride the carousel if it is working that day. They have a train too but never get to ride it since it never seems to be working. They have a park too where the kids love to play at. If you get hungry or thirsty then there's a cafe that you can get food from but we usually bring in our own food and eat at the picnic tables. I love that they hire people with disabilities! Go and support them! read more

Lambs Farm - Amusement Parks Near Me - Libertyville, Illinois

The restaurant food is bad. The service is bad. The developmentally disabled clients that work in the restaurant have poor hygiene. One client name is Ric and he frequently gets diarrhea, while working there in the restaurant. He smells like shit. Beth and Elaine the restaurant management staff don't bother to redirect Ric, while he also threws little tantrums in front of the customers. Ric will scream out I have diarrhea in front of the customers in the restaurant. The Farmyard is not kept up either. The train doesn't work and the merry go round frequently breaks down. The thrift store is way overpriced and so is the bakery. The DSP's are treated poorly by management and the nursing department doesn't care to examine the clients. The Nurse Trainer name is Amy and she is rude to staff members and will refuse to examine or interact with the clients. She will scream at the DSP's that work on the farm and abuse her power over them. She frequently suspends the DSP privileges from passing medications just to demonstrate power and control over other people. read more

Lambs Farm - Amy Reichel: Lambs Farm Nurse Trainer: She likes to abuse her power over the DSP's. She is a rude person and you should avoid her. - Amusement Parks Near Me - Libertyville, Illinois

Lamb's farm is one of the few places around that are frozen in time from a more simpler, easier, kinder and affordable era. Our children aged 5 and 7 absolutely loved it here. And my wife and I had a great time too. There are more animals to pet than you need. The horses, cows, sheep and even goats were all friendly. It felt like the farm had a lot of protocols in place to give the animals a good quality of life. Many of them are rescue animals, and their stories told on some signs can be equally heartbreaking and enlightening. The staff is mostly friendly. Some were eager to answer questions, and volunteer information about the animals. There was someone always around to help. We stopped at the Magnolia Cafe. The prices were pre-lockdown low. Adult entrees were $14 and Kids Meals were only $6. The food was all fresh and homemade. I had the enchiladas and they were honestly as good as any as I ever had. The pico de Gallo tasted like it had been handmade minutes before arriving at the table. I was told by the staff that the enchilada sauce is what they're known for. It was incredible. The enchiladas are comparable to any you'll find in a great Mexican restaurant. My wife had the burger and it was good. It was served with fresh vegetables and great French fries. Service was perfect. The entire waitstaff team had a team approach that made it a memorable experience. I highly recommend stopping for lunch at the Magnolia Cafe (and get the enchiladas). The gift shop is super cute. There are many one of a kind gems there. And, they have animals up for adoption there. For a family of 4, we spent $80 TOTAL. This included admission, hay to feed the animals, a carousel ride, miniature golf AND lunch. You will not find a better deal anywhere. We highly recommend going to Lambs Farm. It's one of those places that when it someday closes, you'll dearly miss and wish it was still around. So go now and build some memories. read more

I love this place because they provide employment for many adults with developmental disabilities. The place is huge! It's probably about 90 acres big that includes a petting zoo (which you can buy a bag of food to feed the animals for like $2), a pet shop, a miniature golf course, several small amusement rides like carousel (it costs about $2), a restaurant, a thrift shop (my aunt found some great stuff in there), a country store and a bakery. Everything they have there is inexpensive, they have plenty of benches to sit down to rest or have a picnic. Also, they have playground by the thrift store as well as little trucks or slides for kids to play on. There's a small train that goes around the farm that cost about $2 each. Entrance is free for kids younger which is great! I enjoyed this farm while I was visiting Chicago. read more

Our family of 15, ages 5 - 94 had a great time. The mini golf course needs some TLC, but we had a blast. We had a birthday party so we had wristbands and pizza. The pizza was delish! Everyone loved it. The restaurant was kind enough to make a turkey club on the gluten free bread we brought with us. Everyone was very nice and we had a great time. read more

I've seen Lambs Farm many times when driving up north as its right off the highway and finally decided to stop by with the kids. If you are looking for something to do with young kids outdoors and for good value, this is a great option. It is not the biggest farm but it is a good enough size to spend a few hours at. The value at $5 a person and $1 for a paper sack of hay is quite good. They also offer pony rides, a carousel and a small train that you can purchase tickets for. The parking lot is large with more than ample parking. The farm itself had a good amount of animals and you can get quite close to them all except for the camel enclosure. Near the front you'll enounter some baby animals such as goats, sheeps and bunnies. Ducks and water fowls flank the sides before you get to the middle section of stalls that have horses, sheeps and llamas. Along the sides will be other birds and goats before you'll hit the pigs and camel enclosure. Off to a side is a building you can enter with cages of birds and small mammals along with glass tanks with amphibians and reptiles. The kids loved getting up close with the animals and feeding them hay. They were a bit scared to feed the animals by hand so would just hold the paper bag out. It is a different experience getting to feed animals up close. The kids had a great time and I love how they serve the community providing jobs for the disabled. read more

Such a fun place for all ages. We have visited so many times before and loved it each time. All the workers are kind and helpful too. Great thrift shop, yummy snack booth, sweet bakery, and animal adoption store. Have never been able to try out the restaurant but will be doing that my next visit! Tons of events always going on such as puppy or animal yoga. Such a great spot for families. read more

A fun place for families to go see farm animals, pet and feed them. I like taking my son here. He enjoyed checking out the various farm animals, feeding them hay and petting them. On this visit, he had a ball with the exception of getting scared of the wooden statue of the lumberjack man and something else. I look forward to our next visit in Spring or Summer of 2019. read more

Fantastic place for all ages! Are at Magnolia...very clean establishment with super nice people! Food was all delicious...items in bakery affordable and tasty...cute stop when leaving! Stopped at the petting area for $5 each and $1 bags of hay for animal feed. We had a lot of fun and the animals are well cared for. Make sure you stop at the thrift store/dog adoption building for unique gifts reasonably priced and cute puppies! We will be back soon! read more

Just came from there with my grandson. Worst experience ever. The place is filthy and run down. The animals are living in horrible conditions. We were going to play mini golf but the carpet at all the holes is torn and shredded. You don't even want to touch the golf clubs. We didn't stay to go to the store and bakery area which from the outside looked a little better. They need to start taking better care of the farm area. read more

I took my grandkids; they loved it the staff was great everyone was so nice, friendly and so accommodating we had such a great time. We also ate at the restaurant the service and the food were fabulous. It's a great place to take the kids I defiantly will be going back. Sending huge Kudos to the staff that are truly amazing with their customer service. Olga Sivek Oak Lawn, Il read more

We visited here to attend a two year olds birthday party. What a cute farm with lots of animals. Kids have the opportunity to pet and feed them up close. All the kids had a blast. They enjoyed checking out all the different types of farm animals. The farm is much bigger than it looks outside and has a wide range of animals from camel, to horses, goats, alpaca, cows - you name it! The carousel and pony rides weren't in operation when we stopped by but I think I'd definitely be back so my kids can experience that as well. What a great day activity for the family at a great price! read more

I love this place! Their mission is to help people with developmental disabilities lead productive and happy lives - they offer residential and vocational services as well as employment opportunities. I love coming here to check out their animals as well as shop at their thrift stores of all their goods. There are puppies, horses, Pygmy goats, sheep, ducks, pigs, and cows. If you love animals and like to support local organizations, check them out! +residential and vocational services and occupations for people with developmental disabilities +farm animals +gift shop on-site read more

This place was one of our favorite stops on a trip to this area. Young and old...if you're an animal lover and a fan of interacting with them, this is a super-great place to chill with some of the friendliest critters. Some are recovering from injury, some have been donated....all of them fun, quirky, and friendly...proud to show off their large personalities. Take the relaxing 20 minute train ride...then head on over to the market and the cafe. Greeted by the sweetest folks, you'll be served some scrumptious home-made food! Walk around the thrift store and maybe you'll score a special find. Stop in and get some jam at the market. Support these hard-working folks; they're the best ! read more

Farm was interactive and really fun. We went on a rainy day because my son had his heart set on going and we were only going to be in town for a few days but even so , still fun . We brought hay for $1 per bag , very reasonable in my opinion and fed the horses and cows . They also have a house that you can visit to see other pets such as goats , lizard, snakes, birds, cats, rabbits,etc. That's also included in the admission price and my son loved it because it was another opportunity to per more pets. The entire experience was very enjoyable and therapeutic for both of us . The staff was also very friendly, which is always a bonus:) If you go , say hello to Wendy Sue ( that's one of the pigs we loved ) read more

Not impressed with this place at all. I will say the concept is great and they are right off the highway but everything else is awful. First off the place is filthy which you would expect a farm to be dirty but this is beyond. Also it's so run down. Everything has holes in it and the carousel looks like it's about to break down any moment, oh wait come to think of it ... it was!!!! We came on a hot day which made the experience worse but seeing all those animals suffering in the heat was heart breaking. The staff avoids interacting with you and just sits and stares at you. There was a cat inside the little indoor space and the staff said nothing about him being friendly or not. My daughter was petting him and he tried to bite her luckily I was right next to her to stop that from happening. Overall I would not come again after seeing all those animals in dire need of shade and water. And not to mention when the carousel is working they charge 20 dollars to get into this place. Maybe if they took pride in this place and fixed it up they could charge that price. read more

Store review: This place is hands down 5 stars for the price, the mission of the business, and the multiple fun things to do. What you won't get is a very refined experience like you would at congo river etc, but hey you are paying 8 dollar for adult and 12 dollars for a kid pass that gets you unlimited access to the petting zoo (lots of sheep, cows, pigs) You get to be up close and personal with the sheep which you can pet and feed. A miniature golf course which is great for older kids and adults, a train ride around the campus which is not too scenic but fun for little kids, a carousal ride which is dated but always fun for little kids. No long lines like other places. Finally the new bounce house that is quite fun to run through. Once you are done you can visit the thrift store, pet store, or grab a quick bite to eat at the restaurant. All and all cheap and fun day out with the family! Pros: cheap, lots of fun for family, supports residential and vocational service with developmental disabilities Cons: far away in libertyville, some of the facilities are starting to get dated Hidden deals: Get the daily pass which offers you the best bet. Free for kids under 2 except for the carrousel read more

I am in shock that Lambs is using the pandemic to price gouge and not offer season passes. Pre Covid it was $50 a family season pass now it is $5each. Every time I go it is $19. There is no reason to not offer a season pass, but they are making a fortune off the pandemic. As a single mom on disability I find this disgusting. We have lost enough money through all this and not being allowed our pass for NO REASON IS JUST SO WRONG read more

I'm starting to see a pattern. Most of my reviews start with, "I bought a Groupon...". So, yes, I did buy a Groupon. But I've definitely been here before. Granted, not in 20 years but I had been meaning to take the Little Dude there and a Groupon gave me extra motivation. For anyone who doesn't know what Lambs Farm is, it's a community that employs people with developmental disabilities. That alone is a reason to go, they're doing great things there. The farm area: meh. It's cute but it's your average run of the mill petting zoo kinda stuff. The kids really loved brushing the goats in the pen and getting to pet a lamb. The train ride: a must for any train loving kids. Our toddler loved it. The jumping house: terrible. Mini golf: I didn't play (I was toddler wrangling) but my Dude and stepdaughter said it was ok. The pet store: don't go in unless you're prepared for your kids to be begging for puppies, kittens and the random stuffed animals in there. Although we bought our toddler an Elmo doll in there that he has been sleeping with every.single.night since our visit. My favorite parts of Lambs Farm were the restaurant and the thrift store. I had a bacon cheeseburger that was seriously to die for. It was amazing! My Dude had the chimichanga and it was not good at all, don't do it! Get the cheeseburger instead. The kids meals were cheap and the food was good. The thrift store was awesome! They were having a sale on kids books and I picked up 12 of them for **$1.20**. Amazing! Hardcovers, award winners, all in excellent condition. Plus I got some big plastic trucks for the Little Dude super cheap. I practically skipped out of there and I had to call the family over to help me carry out my stash. read more

I had a great time visiting Lambs Farm! As an animal lover, it was amazing to see the variety of animals they have at the Farm. My favorite is Joe the Camel lol! The animals were having a great time, and the employees were very nice and knowledgeable about the animals! I loved how they updated the Farm in light of Covid-19. They made sure to keep things extra clean and safe! I loved their signs reminding people to social distance (stay one cow apart lol). The staff also reminded people to keep their masks on and were very polite about it. The café had great food. I'll definitely be back soon! read more

I've been to Lamb's Farm many, many times, both as a child and as a parent. I absolutely love this place! My kids can pretty much spend all day there. I know there are some complaints on here regarding the age of the equipment...Personally, I think it's amazing to have grown up with this stuff and to have my children experience the same things I did when I was their age. I have never felt that my children (or I) were in danger of the equipment breaking or of them being a safety hazard. Honestly, I have more faith in some of the older features than the way some things are built today. I highly recommend Lamb's Farm and can't wait for spring and summer so I can take my little gals back again! read more

My 4 year old and I were here for 3 hours. We could have stayed longer! The animals are so sweet, we both could not get enough! You can buy a bag of hay for $1 and the goats and horses love it! The place is a bit run down but it has been here for a long time, it's expected. But should be updated cleaned. The price is right for what you get. My son went on the carousel 3 times and we went on the train. We could have mini golfed, too but wanted to play with the animals instead :) We will definitely be back soon! read more

This place is beyond great! The service they provide for the community is truly admirable. Great restaurant and service is terrific- also a wonderful thrift store and candy shop. You can wander for a few hours! read more

Loved it. My only complaint is that the parking isn't marked to well I was confused where to go on such a large lot of land. I felt what we paid for was a fair price. We loved the petting zoo and walking around exploring. The train was fun, a few of the statue animals along the path were in rough shape and the landscaping along the tracks could be more up kept. Love the work they do and the cause they stand for. read more

We just went the other day with my 2 & 4 yr old and it wasn't busy at all! Reservations online is preferred as they only take 50 people at a time. Since there were only 4 other people, it wasn't a problem. Lots of animals and cute to walk around and feed the animals hay. We chose not to do the mini golf course. They have a mini hand washing station too which I liked, right before exiting. read more

Amazing place, thank you for building something so great for kids and families, but also for the work you do for the community. Really well run and for a non-profit, its excellent.

Today, we loaded up the family truckster and made the hike to Libertyville for our first-ever Lamb's Farm experience. Overall, it was a great time, but to simplify my compliments and complaints, I'll separate my review into pros and cons: (Just to clarify, the people in attendance were: 1. Yours Truly 2. Husband 3. 5 y/o son 4. 4 y/o daughter 5. 3 y/o severely disabled [wheelchair bound] daughter 6. 22 month old daughter 7. Grandma [my mom]) +'s: +The petting zoo area was top notch and rather spacious. While I was a little discouraged that it wasn't supervised (animal welfare concern here--I mean, come on), the animals were totally chill and more than accustomed to being handled. Oh, and there were about ten million of them between the goats and the sheep. My kids loved brushing them, and they (the animals) were all pretty awesome. Everyone in the petting zoo area was very respectful of the animals, at least while we were there. The farm provides hand washing stations with soap, water, and paper towels immediately upon exiting which is unequivocally beyond fantastic. Best attraction of the farm, hands down. +The actual farm area (non-petting zoo style) was pretty good. I always think animals in captivity should have more room than they're given, but the animals seemed well cared for and content enough. The farm was overall rather clean and it is fully "sidewalked" so pushing a stroller or wheelchair (or both, in our case) is a breeze. The animals were all out and about and friendly, although there are lots of warnings not to pet the non-petting zoo variety. +They have a carousel, mini golf, and a train ride. While we didn't golf, the other two attractions were huge hits with my two oldest kids. +The grounds themselves are huge. Sure, there's a farm, but across the street from the parking lot, there's a pet store, a restaurant, a gift shop, a park. We spent next to no time on that side (save for getting a few cookies from the gift shop for the kids--thanks, grandma!) but I hope we can check it out in the future. The "country store" was very cute, if a little small. And by all accounts, the cookies were delicious. +The fees are reasonable, IMHO. To take a family of six plus grandma to anywhere where you don't hold a membership--say, a zoo or a museum or what-have-you--we'd be spending big bucks. Admission came to $33: three adults, three kids (the under two set is free of charge), and a ride on the carousel and train for two kids plus an adult. Not too bad for a few hours of family fun, especially on a day as beautiful as today.. And now, the -'s: -The parking lot left me feeling very WTF. The handicapped parking for the farm was opposite the farm entrance. Wait, what? We wound up walking from the bitter back of the lot to the farm entrance. It was fine for us (since we were pushing our daughter in a wheelchair) but wouldn't be so fine for someone who had trouble walking across the entire lot. Not a fan of that. For a non-profit dedicated to developmentally disabled individuals, I expected parking to be a bit more accessible. I understand that the goal was to make it easy to get to both sides of the farm, but there should be some at least a little reserved parking near the area of admission. -I touched on it briefly, but finding someone who worked there and was actually walking the grounds was virtually impossible. For having an area open to the animals (i.e., the petting zoo), I feel this is a very poor choice. Also, someone came to feed the goats and sheep toward the end of our stay in the petting zoo and it was all but a stampede. My kids were okay with it, but quite a few other kids were pretty freaked out--and understandably so. Some of the animals--the sheep especially--were enormous and man, do they love their mealtimes. A warning wouldn't have been a bad call, especially since there were several really, really little kids meandering about. -While being "sidewalked" is an absolutely amazingly huge plus, the pathways were rather narrow at times. We were able to make it through, but it was a bit snug here and there. Overall, we would most definitely return to the farm. There's not much shade, so I wouldn't recommend going on a day when it will be exceptionally warm, but it's definitely worth the drive, especially if you can't resist the opportunity to cuddle up with a sheep or goat or twenty. :) EDITED TO ADD: To the parents of the boy (maybe 11 or 12 years old?) who took one look at my severely disabled daughter and turned to me and said "she's SO cute!", thank you. Thank you for teaching your child tolerance, acceptance, and respect. What a special young man. I'm sure you're incredibly proud of him--I would be, too. Thank you, thank you, thank you. :) read more

This place is great for a fun afternoon with some tots. Lambs farm is a non-profit dedicated to developmentally disabled individuals. They provide employment and homes to people that society tends to shun. There are several businesses at the Lamb's farm compound: trift store, restaurant, pet store, bakery, gift shop and petting zoo/mini amusement park. For the petting zoo, you pay a flat admission fee at the entrance and then have access to everything here. The petting zoo is probably appropriate for kids up to ag 10. All kids should be closely supervised while they are with the animals and should be especially careful if feeding the animals. The "rides" are all very simple: bounce castle, train, mini-carosel. There is also a mini-golf course. Going here is fun, but it can also provide great learning experiences for children and their families in dealing with those who are disabled. There are some animals that have disabilities as well, so you might want to be prepared to talk about why the cat only has 3 legs. read more

Lamb's Farm gets 5 stars from me for all the good work they do! I'm physically disabled, myself, and have a developmentally disabled uncle who is one of the sweetest people on earth. I will forever support Lamb's Farm as long as they are still running. Like another reviewer said, the state's lack of funding for Lamb's Farm's programs is why it is becoming run down. It's hard to remodel and keep things looking fresh and up to date when you have no money. As for the reviewer who thought employees were talking funny and on drugs? I hope she was just naive and not making fun of the disabled employees. She should be ashamed of herself. I enjoy the pet shop, the resale shop, and the restaurant. They used to have some large concerts here in the summer, not sure if they still do that. The pet shop has a huge tortoise, cats, dogs, birds, fish, and a few reptiles and cute rodents. They have fun facts about the animals posted along the walls. And they also sell pet supplies and accessories. The resale shop is hit or miss. A lot of the clothes are pretty worn, but they have some nice knick knacks, and a whole room of books! Outdoors during the summer, they also have a tented area with resale furniture that's pretty nice at very reasonable prices. I have posted a separate review about the restaurant, which my husband and I are fans of the food. I was surprised at the lack of wheelchair accessibility in the ladies' room, but that speaks to our state government and where their priorities lie. It's not Lamb's Farm's fault. Lamb's Farm is doing a wonderful thing providing homes and jobs for the developmentally disabled. I hope people can be supportive to help them get turned back around to the good ol' days there. read more

Fantastic place! This is a phenomenal stop to bring your kids. Their petting zoo is wonderful. Long long ago, a goat chewed on my coat when I visited on a school field trip but I was just excited at the time to be near a goat so I didn't really care. They have portraits with baby lambs, pet shop, thrift shop, and cute little country restaurant to top all of that off. It's a great place to visit around the holidays too! Lamb's Farm has only gotten better over the years. read more

Lambs Farm - Miniature golf - Amusement Parks Near Me - Libertyville, Illinois

Really nice place to get away from the Urban life for a day. Good food and better buffet on special events. Good activities for all ages. Great cause running the place. It's true, there is a little too much pavement for a farm, but then you have to remember this is an attraction, not just a working farm. The animals here seemed well cared for, as they can be in a petting zoo type environment. I'd be happy to be here! People coming by and feeding me treats all day and patting me on the head is a good day in my book! read more

I gave three stars because I experienced everything I was expecting in visiting a farm. My nephews loved it. The mini golf area was a nice touch. However, I noticed a couple animals had abrasions or were injured. One llama had an open wound on his neck and another horse had an injured hoof; his leg was red and it was apparent that he was uncomfortable. My only complaint is that they should pay closer attention to their animals' health. It made me feel uneasy that they were not being attended to. read more
