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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

My friends and I surprised one of our friends with a trip to Safari Lake Geneva to kick off her…read morebachelorette weekend, and we all ended up having a great time. None of us had ever done a drive through safari before, so it felt like a really unique and memorable activity. When we first arrived, it was a little confusing figuring out exactly where to go to start the drive-through experience. The signage could have been clearer. Thankfully, we visited near the end of their open season and at a slower time of day, so the entrance area was not crowded and we were able to take our time getting started. One thing to be aware of is that the driving trail has a lot of potholes and uneven spots, so you definitely need to drive slowly and carefully. Some sections of the path are pretty bumpy, especially if you are not expecting it. We decided not to buy the animal feed because at the beginning, we were a little nervous about opening our windows, and also did not want food all over the car. Even without feeding them, we still got very close to a lot of animals and were able to pet them through our open windows when we felt comfortable doing so. Throughout the drive, you see animals like deer, camels, llamas, alpacas, bison, antelope, and tons of ostriches and emus. There were also a couple of giraffes and zebras toward the end. The ostriches were definitely the most aggressive and curious. They walked right up to the cars and pecked at windows, which had us laughing and slightly panicking at the same time. We also noticed there was animal spit all over the outside of the car from all of the animals trying to get food from us, despite us not having any. There are not a huge number of different species, and you will see some of the same animals many times along the route, but it was still fun to take pictures and watch how the animals interacted with the cars. Admittedly, I felt bad for the animals because I feel like it could be easy for a car to accidentally run them over. Some animals took a long time to move out of the car's way, and because the safari is just one big open field where the animals can freely roam around, the animals come out of nowhere sometimes. Once the driving part was over, we looked at the other parts of the safari where you could walk around. We saw pigs, little monkeys, donkeys, and more! I love how interactive the experience is and how you can't pet animals at a zoo, but you can here. Pricewise, it wasn't crazy and ended up being about $23 per person because they don't charge per vehicle; they charge per person. Overall, this was a really fun and unique experience that made for a great start to our friend's bachelorette weekend. It is definitely something different to do if you are in the Lake Geneva area, but just be prepared for a bumpy drive and some very curious animals.

We did the safari and had a blast. Took my nephew and mom and we laughed the entire way through. We…read morehad bought plenty of food and boy the animals were right at our car. My only concern was avoiding the horns from scratching the car! The only thing t improve this would be if there were signs up at least saying what sort of animals you may encounter in certain areas. There were several that we were like, what is that?! It was in the 90's when we went so we did the car ride only, not the walking area. So fun!

What a fabulous zoo! I love free zoos, growing up near DC our zoo was free so I always thought this…read morewas normal. My best friend and I came here for a fun afternoon activity. It was late in the afternoon and close to their closing, but we still made the most of it. There is so much to explore and a huge space. At first it felt like a lot of the animals were napping and hiding, but with time we were able to see more. You can tell they really take care of their animals here. One of the highlights was visiting the two week old zebra. I also loved the shaved alpaca. There were enough maps throughout the space to never feel lost. They had food and beverage for purchase and cute activities like caricatures. Even when the zoo closed they still had beautiful walking trails nearby which made it even more special. I highly recommend checking this zoo out.

Lincoln Park Zoo is a fantastic destination and one of Chicago's true gems. The fact that admission…read moreis free makes it an incredible place for families, visitors, and locals looking for a fun and memorable outing. The zoo features a wonderful variety of animal exhibits, all set within a beautiful, natural landscape that's enjoyable to explore at a relaxed pace. The grounds are well maintained and make for a pleasant visit regardless of the season. I will admit that on several of my visits, some of the animals were not visible in either their indoor or outdoor habitats. While that's not unusual at any zoo, I've noticed it happens fairly often here. I'll chalk that up to my own timing, as animal care and welfare always come first. There are several convenient places throughout the zoo to grab a snack, enjoy a meal, or pick up a drink. Every staff member I've encountered has been friendly, welcoming, and professional, which adds to the overall experience. Whether you're visiting for the first time or returning for another trip, Lincoln Park Zoo offers an enjoyable experience for all ages. I highly recommend spending a few hours here and taking advantage of one of the best free attractions in Chicago.

It's always so much fun going to the zoo. This is one of the more bigger shoes here in Chicago. And…read moreI think it's the first time I've been here again in like 8 years. I was so happy that I was able to experience feeding the giraffes and that they actually feed them a whole Leaf of lettuce it's a bit of a on the pricey side $15 you get about half of a bunch of lettuce but to be able to feed them the whole Leaf it was amazing because other places you would only get like strips of carrots. We were there a bit early and so most if not some of the animals were all out and that was so nice to see so I did enjoy it a lot. The only downside was the food the food trucks were closed and so the only choice we had was the outdoor one in the cafeteria until we did choose the outdoor one and the line wasn't even that long but the two boys that were there I guess they were new and it was a part-time thing it was so disorganized that we waited almost an hour for our food. The food was okay for Zoo food but I would eat it again it's just the long wait. But this suit was amazing I highly recommend feeding the giraffes I wish they also offered more animal encounters like feeding the goats and whatnot but I would definitely be coming back. Happy exploring!

We took our son here for his first trip to the zoo during the week and boy was it crowded. It was…read moresuper hot and all of the indoor exhibits were super muggy I'm sure to remain temperament for the animals but it left for little places to go to break up the insane heat. The bathrooms were cleaner than most so we were super grateful for that! We loved that there were so many animals actually in their exhibits unlike other zoos we've been to. The animals were actually rolling around and running around playing so my son loved seeing them. The food is super expensive, and any souvenirs were even crazier. We wanted ice cream but various places had their machines not working, for the amount of kids and the heat it was a let down but we appreciated the zoo for being so clean and shady. Parking is $17 in the north lot and $20 in the south. There were tons of busses but still ample parking. Overall a great visit. Be sure to check your local libraries for museum and zoo passes!
