We visited the Lone Elk Park on the recommendation of a friend who is a lifelong resident of St. Louis. When you go, don't rush, but expect people to run you off the road who are in a rush. We arrived when a herd of...More
We have visited Lone Elf Park several times and have never been disappointed. Each visit has had at least some animal viewing opportunities, and occasionally there is more than we care to count. There's a lot of elk but also deer and bison in good...More
