Clemens Gardens

Picturesque garden with red-brick walkways gives visitors a feast for the senses.

Reviewed By jerb2014 - Bristol, United States

This garden is beautiful beyond words. Far different from Munsinger Gardens, Clemens Garden is very formally laid out on a grid pattern. There are brick walkways that lead you through a series of six gardens: A rose border, the rest area garden, a formal garden, a white garden, a perennial garden and the last a treillage garden. The "bones" of the gardens are beautiful and five of the gardens have fountains. The most spectacular fountain (and that is an appropriate description), is the Renaissance fountain with Hebe and cranes. Stunning. When we were there one of the fountains was being repaired due to vandalism. Inconceivable how anyone would stoop to doing something like that, but the garden does not have a fence around it. The plantings were spectacular, still in progress, but a team of staff members were working to finish weeding and planting. Just a breath taking garden in the tradition of the finest formal gardens found in England. We will fondly remember our visit. Free admission, but donations welcomed.

Munsinger Gardens

Located along the scenic Mississippi River, these gardens are known for their shade-loving plants including numerous hostas and ferns.

This is a beautiful area to visit just to walk through and enjoy the many different plants and wonderful walkways along side of the Mississippi River. The fall colors are so beautiful all around the fountains and gorgeous scenic views. I love coming here to just walk and visit with friends and go to the little gift shop. I recommend it for anyone who has time to soak in this totally awesome place.

Pantown Brewing Company

Stop in and try St. Cloud's locally owned brewery! Try a flight of beers, pint. Take a Crowler or Growler to-go! The brewery has 2 floors of seating & plenty of board games to keep you busy for hours! Meet with our head brewer Nick or ask for one of the owners, Noel or Marty for a tour.

I stopped in because I had a gift card. I was greeted by friendly staff that gave me time to look at the menu then gave me suggestions based on my beer preferences. I like the vibe and their outdoor space looks great for summer beer drinking.
