Love this place. The soft serve is really cold, creamy, and flavorful. We got twists (which were a great balance for 50/50 chocolate and vanilla) and straight vanilla. They also gave us two free pupcups for the dogs. If I do not drive past before they close for the fall/winter I will be sure to come back as soon as they open next season.

Cool treats for these trekkers on a hot day. Their ice cream is yummy and portions are generous. I really liked that they offered unique pretzel cones. We sat out front in their patio seating area. On top of the great flavors of ice cream the decor was cute and well suited for the woodsy setting they are in. There is no public bathroom, so plan around not having that available.

I did not go to the pine cone. I was at Adk street eats food truck next to the pine cone. BEST FOOD EVER at the food truck. I'm sure the ice cream at the pine cone is good too. You can't screw up ice cream

This used to be the best ice cream around. NOT anymore!! Ice crystals in the soft ice cream, way smaller in size, out of the favorite hard ice creams, and the most unpleasant staff. Showed up one night after seeing a sign that they would open at 4. Got there at 6 and it was closed. I usually don't write reviews but this is a TOTAL disappointment!!

Their hard serve wasn’t my favorite. More icy than creamy. They were out of waffle cones.

Our favorite roadside stop in the area (across from Tail O the Pup).Usually has dairy-free options and all the usual soft serve and hard ice creams. Tasty ice cream, fun toppings, and generous scoops (maybe too generous). Homemade chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwiches are tasty.Tight parking, watch out for the monster pothole. Rarely a wait.

The first to open each year and last to close. We like both the hard and soft ice cream. Our dog loves to get his summer time ice cream here. Best in the area!

This place is awesome! They serve soft and hard ice cream, as well as milkshakes and banana splits. They even have a "doggie cone" that is topped off with a mini milk bone, free for your dog.

Great ice cream but the personality of the lady behind the counter could have been better. Maybe she was having a bad day? She def wasn't busy. We were the only ones there

Showed up at 745, the sign outside said open until 8, and the place was closed. I saw other people pull up as well and were surprised.

Absolute Adirondack classic, the Ice Cream here is an unmatched local delicacy. Very family oriented, they even sell ice cream for your pets. 10/10 would cream again

We are so glad our waitress from across the street told us about this place! We had been to Donnelly's and wasn't impressed. Today we came here and we were much happier campers! Softserve with peanut butter dip 🙌🏼

Good, cheaply priced ice cream in a good location. If you are staying at the campground across the street it’s a great place to go and get an afternoon treat.

I went when they first opened and received terrible service, and have not returned until today, and it was no different. The girl working could not have been more unfriendly or unwelcoming. We will choose other options in the future and encourage others to as well.

The ice cream was delicious and the prices were reasonable. We loved the expanded variety of sprinkles as well!

One of the best ice cream places that I’ve eaten at, very good ice cream. I would definitely come back to eat more. I just wish there was one closer to me

Nice spot but some flavours are just too plain. Girls working there have no motivation at all.
