We just moved to town & luckily get to live right by the creamery! Walked here with my family and we all loved it! My cookie dough blizzard was filled with ginormous chunks of yummy cookie dough! My husband, daughter, & son also enjoyed what they got. I love how they have the picnic tables set up to sit & hangout at. It’s crazy how people in the reviews complain of the prices …everything is up in this economy! Support your small town family owned business people!!! It’s absolutely worth the stop for a sweet tooth fixin!

Had the cookie dough twister made with chocolate soft serve. It was soooo good! Cookie dough was like i just made it in my kitchen! I was first thinking it was going to be like dq but it wasn't. Nice surprise. It was also nice to have something in town open past 9 pm!

I was so excited to have a place to frequent in the summer. A local establishment to give my business. It’s a nice place if you like soft serve ice cream. With Dairy Queen already as an option it would have been nicer to have custer or old fashioned hard ice cream. I do realize it’s creeper to make soft serve. As far as my experience, both times I ordered root beer float and My root beer float was flat. My husband explained that it was flat because The root beer they poured in was from an open bottle in the refrigerator. Another disappointment, and I realize the place is new but they still don’t have shakes and malts available. Not a great first impression for our family but maybe your family will have a better experience. I would check them out. (Sorry no pictures, it was a very buggy night )
