Visit Donner And Blitzen This Holiday Season At Illinois’ Very Own Reindeer Farm

The holiday season is here, and anticipation of Santa's arrival has filled the air. If you've ever wondered about the magical reindeer that pull his sled around the world each year, there's a whimsical attraction you must visit. Snowman's Reindeer Farm in Illinois is home to several of Santa's reindeer and a whole host of fun activities. See why we think this may become the highlight of your holiday season!

It all started in 2015 with just two reindeer. Today, on this farm, owned by Scott and Tracy Snowman (yes, that's their real last name!), a larger herd of Santa's helpers is waiting to greet you!

With a name like Snowman, it's not surprising the owners have a reindeer farm in Illinois that shows off their love for the Christmas season.

With the addition of several attractions on the farm, including the Little Reindeer Railway, it's the perfect destination to be included as one of Illinois winter traditions.

There's nothing like a visit with Santa's very own reindeer who live here at Snowman's Reindeer Farm! You can see them at the heated Main Reindeer Barn, Farmer Scott's Antler Shanty, Sugar Plum Pavilion, and the Alaskan Reindeer Pavilion.

Santa's reindeer are quite friendly and love interacting with people. Visitors can pet and feed the animals, including Snowball, Mistletoe, and Jack Frost.

Staff will be also on hand to teach you all about these reindeer in Illinois.

Santa will visit the farm in November and December; he has to get all of his reindeer prepped for the big day! Children are invited to meet and take pictures with Santa in the Holly Jolly Barn. Therefore, don't forget your camera during this special Illinois winter tradition experience.

In the mood for some shopping? Head to the Jolly Old Elf Shop for seasonal gifts and souvenirs that will put a smile on anyone's face.

If you get hungry or need a drink, visit the walk-up Flying Reindeer Snack Bar, a renovated antique concession stand with outdoor seating.

Snowman's Reindeer Farm in Illinois is open during November and December. Reservations are required and you can book your tickets through their website.
