We stopped into this ice cream shop on our way home from visiting friends in New Vineyard. The kids wanted ice cream and Google recommended this place. We were pleasantly surprised at the amazing selection of ice cream! And then the portions were ginormous! We ordered smalls and should’ve went with baby size but the challenge was on to finish these huge ice creams and I have to say …we did! They were yummy! And the price was great too~ good choice Google! And thank you to the owners … We will stop in again someday!We had peanut butter cup sundae, small cotton candy in cone , small cookie dough in cone & small mocha crunch w/ crunch coat in dish. All were great! And huge!

I love this Ice Cream Shop! The ice cream is delicious! It is also on a river and they have picnic tables for outdoor seating by the river or on their deck and they also have indoor seating. Try this ice cream shop you'll love it!

Friendly staff. A huge selection of ice cream, including vegan friendly and gluten free, plus all the topping. Huge servings and prices below all other ice cream stands around. Highly recommend.

I have never seen such large servings for icecream before!! My bf got a large and he couldn't finish it. I got a baby serving and it was like most places medium!! 😳

Great service, and the ice cream is amazing. It was very busy and the young lady who made my banana split forgot the banana, but our group alone was 12 people so 1 out of 12, not bad.

this place is usually my first choice when it comes to going out to ice cream, until tonight. not sure who took our order but the blonde hair and overlined lips is a good way to pick her out of the crowd. she was INCREDIBLY rude and had zero customer service skills. as a person who works in customer service i usually understand having bad days, but this was no bad day, just bad personality all around. if you close at 8 stop serving at 8 and don’t continue to get b*tchier and b*tchier every order you continue to take. p

I mean listen, it's reasonably priced, it's got an awesome selection and the ice cream is good! The only two things that are weird to me though; The parking lot can get incredibly packed incredibly quickly and there's just not that much room to move around out front. Second, I'm not sure what the hiring policy is for this place but it's abundantly clear that they have a preferred type of employee which is very strange in this day and age. But the ice cream is good!

Love this place their ice cream is delicious but the best part for me is they have vegan, dairy free, sugar free and gluten free.

They have great soft serve. It's rich and flavorful. A "small" is an extremely generous portion at a great price. They have a rotating list of special soft serve and Dole whip flavors. Their hard serve list is extensive. Lots of options for those who are dairy and sugar sensitive. They only get 4 stars though because on several occasions I've had ice cream fall off my cone due their improper filling of the cone. Could stand to have some more staff training on that.

I have one problem with this place, being that their shakes aren't very drinkable, you have to wait for them to melt, I don't like waiting to eat my icecream lol.Other than that, this place is definitely better than Giffords, there's a ton more options and they taste better.It's a new and clean building, with inside and outside seating and a bathroom.

1st time stopping here in my travels. It was awesome! Ice cream menu board was almost overwhelming! They must have had over 100 flavors of hard serve, many softserve, and all kimds of sundaes. I ordered a large frappe (hard ice cream milkshake). The woman who waited on me at the window talked me into a combination chocolate/black raspberry - maybe the best I've ever had. The size was what I'd expect - not giant but larger than a medium. If you see them....go visit them!

Great place. Has icecream here. With cones that are waffle-like. They have a decent non-dairy option (3 actually) that are actually decent according to my wife. And some good no-sugar added options for myself. Huge portions...so they'll never cheap out on you, just remember to specify the # of scoops because you might need two people to finish a small (not a bad thing!!). Also on the 4-wheeler trails, which we frequently stop at while out on the whistlestop.

Good prices, friendly service and a lot of ice cream flavors and concoctions to choose from. There's outdoor seating which was clean. It's a pleasant place to visit and on our "must-do" when we're in the area!

I love the atmosphere, it is very family-oriented. The staff are local teens who work very hard and have been very courteous while keeping things tidy. Great value for your money. Large servings for an affordable price. Great job team!

I love your ice cream and I usually get very good customer service here. Today September 24th around 3:45 pm there was a young man who took my order first he came to the window and said nothing I said hi he said nothing again. He took my order I handed him 12 dollars in singles he didn't even count the money and put it right in the till. I could have handed him 3 dollars he wouldn't have known. Then I get my ice cream turn around from the window and he almost walked into me as he was leaving work he said something under his breath. This kid has a pretty serious attitude problem you could totally tell he did not want to be there at all. Not exactly the type of experience people want when going to an ice cream shop. All the other girls working in there were very polite and helpful he was the only one with a negative attitude

Best ice cream ever! Soft and hard serve. HUGE menu of different shakes, blizzards, banana splits, slushies, they have a whole board full of different concoctions. They have gluten free options and I THINK a couple of dairy free options.(Don't quote me on the dairy free).

Good spot for ice cream, prices are fair, and extra parking in the back. You can go inside and sit down, not everyone may know that.

I give this ice cream shop a 10 out of 10 it's great I have driven by this ice cream store for over 6 years and never stopped because I always was like yeah it's just another ice cream shop well it is not there is seating inside if it's too hot too cold or rainy You're sitting outside that they're expanding that sits along the river and field and the pricing is fantastic with more than enough ice cream than you will eat.
