We go to STL every year and always find interesting things to do. This is well worth the afternoon. We took the house tour and the village tour. It is worth it to spend a few extra bucks to to the village tour, you get to go into many of the houses/shops. More

Not only is the home open to visitors, a village has been recreated near the home. Learning about Daniel Boone and his time in Missouri is interesting and fun. Also, during the holidays, concerts and other activities are held to help people find the quieter meanings of life More

Enjoyed our trip very much. They have numerous buildings on site that they have moved to make a "village".
