What a fantastic community space and outdoor recreation center! Totally makes winter in Minnesota…read moreeven better. I'm new to discovering The Trailhead at Theodore Wirth Regional Park, but believe me when I say I'll be back many more time. In the winter, they offer cross-country skiing and lessons. (You can rent a full set of gear for about $30- no need to have your own to experience skiing! They also have à la carte options for cheaper if you only need poles or boots, etc.) Besides skiing, outdoor winter activities also include snow tubing, snowboarding, snowshoeing.... You name it. (I haven't been in fall or summer yet, but I also hear great things about their mountain biking and trail running options.) Inside The Trailhead, there's food and drink concessions, ample seating, lockers, bathrooms, and even rooms for rent. The last time I was there, a family was hosting a young child's birthday party in the multi-purpose room. Altogether, there is an amazing assortment of services here to come and check out. Can't wait for next ski season!

The building is a perfect space for bringing a large group together for games, chatting, eating, and sledding on the snowy hills just outside the doors. They used to serve hot food, but they no longer have that option. The food was not consistent or anything all that special, but it was a nice option. This time we brought Thanksgiving leftovers and some breakfast bagel sandwiches. The space is well maintained and clean. It is spacious and has lots of room for young kids to run around and not be a disturbance. Always look forward to coming here.

I can no longer eat dairy and they were super responsive to my needs. The food is incredible!! Dairy free chicken pot pie-what?!? Yes please!! The rooms are comfortable and the grounds are beautiful. I always find a new path, or swing or something. Additionally I could sit and watch the birds all day! The cardinals and big blue jay and woodpecker and the list goes on and on. The birds flock to the feeders and I could sit and watch them all day. The also have a pool, hot tub and sauna which are a real treat! It is also conveniently located to the Minneapolis and a super easy drive. I'm looking forward to going back in the winter!

We got their pretty close to opening and didn't have to wait on lines at all. There are tons of baked goods and cider you can take home. IF you want to pick your own apples, you can do that too.

There are quite a few stands throughout the farm offering wine, cider, and food. Along with the apple barn that has of course, apples and everything else fall flavored. I had an apple cider donut and am happy with the choice. Thor's Hard Cider was on site and the customer service was spectacular. They don't usually allow samples but being someone who doesn't get ciders often they allowed it. The cider was great! Highly recommend. For those of you that enjoy wine the Saint Croix Vineyards was onsite. The only downfall is that on a chilly day there is not much indoor seating and even outdoor seating was filling up fast at times.

The one thing to know, is that there aren't a tremendous amount of options for their brunch, unless you do the family style. And you must be prepared to have everyone at the table order, which makes sense, it's just good to know before heading over! Service was a little slow, but I believe the server was training in. Prices are also a little bit steep, but to be expected on a golf course.

Sound system was great as the actors had microphones, in which there was no reverberations or echo.

Location was also near other little restaurants and shopping area, not near downtown Stillwater at all but close enough where you could go there if wanted to. Located right off Hwy 36 which is convenient. Murder Mystery show was FANTASTIC!

We loved that they're set off to the side, which keeps the energy high without overwhelming the whole space. We're already planning to come back specifically to try them out. The cocktails were a standout. Each one was clearly made with fresh ingredients and real care, which is something we always appreciate. The bar tender was quick and helpful. We started with the pimento cheese appetizer, and it was delicious--the bread had the perfect crispy texture, and the portion of pimento cheese was generous and flavorful. For dinner, my husband ordered the taco pizza and absolutely loved it. It's the perfect mix of fresh flavors and comforting, tasty goodness. I took a bit of a gamble and ordered the salmon--because you never quite know with seafood in the Midwest--but it paid off. The salmon was fresh with no fishy taste, had a great spicy kick, and was served over a bed of vibrant, flavorful vegetables. Truly impressive

Depending on the size of the crowd, parking and entry can be a breeze or really tough. It is a venue that has a lot of potential, with both the inside of the building and the outdoor field where ABR is held available as potential space. I guess I would say that I feel the ABR is too big for this venue and there are parking issues (not to mention the wrap-around-the-block hour-long wait to get through the gate). Other things I've been to at this facility seemed better suited. For the record, I do think that reusing an old building period is awesome. It's way better than just letting it sit there. :-)

The little barn houses, the field, everything was inviting and elegant, yet rustic and homey. The outdoor ceremony area was also great, with benches set up, a beautiful gate for the married couple to walk in through, etc. The staff were super atttentive and friendly. My only gripe was that they did not seem well equipped to handle super cold weather (there were some blankets) but the ceremony was super chilly and I wish the heat was turned on more in the dining area.

When…read moredriving up the road, all that can be seen is a house with a small sign on the gate but we quick saw that there was a lot more waiting just over the hill. I had arrived early to get ready at the bridal suite which was in one of the little buildings. It had the restrooms inside on the first floor & the bridal suite on the second. There were only three of us bridesmaids, but even with others stopping in to see the bride, there was plenty of room to get ready. The best part was that there was a lot of natural lighting & lots of mirrors for us to use. I didn't see the grooms suite but there was a separate building for that as well! The wedding ceremony area had luscious grass with seating benches for the guests & big wooden doors for a grand entrance. It was nice for the wedding party to be able walk down & then have a pause (with doors closed) as the bride stepped up for her entrance. The reception was then held inside the big barn building just off to the side from the ceremony. The space was large with wooden tables & chairs set up for guests. Although we didn't use it, there was a firepit next to the building for use as well! Drinks & appetizers were served before the reception started at the side barn building. It was just a few feet away from the main reception. My favorite though, was the barn space that was first seen when entering the venue from the parking lot. Our friends had opted to utilize it for photos to put inside the guest book! Overall, a cute venue. Since I was a guest, I don't know any of the logistics of touring / reserving the space but my friend (the bride) did say that they're booked up pretty much every weekend!
