5. Grant's Farm

This farm once belonged to Ulysses S. Grant and was bought by the Busch family almost a hundred years ago. Today, the estate, compliments of Anheuser-Busch, is a wildlife preserve. Travel in an open-air coach past Mirror Lake to Grant's Cabin, constructed by Grant in 1856. Ride past Deer Park and view bison, elk, antelope, zebras, llamas and ostriches. See the famous Clydesdales in their pastures next to the stables. Enjoy entertaining, educational shows at the Tier Garten Amphitheater. You can also visit the petting area and hand-feed the smaller animals.   (© 10Best)

One of St. Louis's many outdoor delights, Grant's Farm has a 281-acre area owned by Anheuser-Busch. A free attraction, the preserve features a Clydesdale breeding farm and a log cabin built by Ulysses S. Grant. Be sure to take the tram ride -- it's loads of fun too. (from Southern Living)

I wouldn't even give your site 1 star! It's very difficult to see any pictures and could not find any prices except for parking.

My kids love Grant's Farm. The tram ride is relaxing for the parents and fun for the kids. There is a large variety of animals. The food is ok and the free drink samples are great! If you go on a cool day the animals are much more active.
