When off-site special event venues in St. Cloud are desired, the Royal Crest Room at Royal St. Cloud Golf Links has a 4,000-square-foot ballroom that can accommodate up to 250 guests for a banquet.
Fresh air and eco activities are in order after intensive meetings and the St. Cloud area offers a wide variety of options, including zip lining, airboat tours, guided bass fishing excursions, horseback riding and nature walks. For golfers, the Royal St. Cloud Golf Links is a 27-hole complex inspired by great British courses like St. Andrews, Carnoustie and Turnberry.
The Stone Bridge Tavern and Grill at Royal St. Cloud is a popular group option with a dinner menu dotted with prime cut steaks and fresh seafood. For beautiful lake views, Crabby Bills overlooking St. Cloud Marina, features a great seafood menu and seating for up to 210 for a group meal function.
