    Yearly tradition to do the maze and fall activities. Great for all ages and amazing ice cream. Adults, don't miss out on the bounce pillow, one for little kids and one for older kids-adults its really fun

    It's a tough one. The ice cream itself is good - nice texture, really smooth, not too sweet. However it was totally underwhelming in terms of the flavors, and we tried 3 of them. It's a great venue overall, nice interior, lots of outdoor seating with views. Also there is a mini golf and expansive grounds for kids to roam. We will give it another try :)

    Went on opening day with my family including 3 grandchildren. We had a wonderful time played the mini golf and enjoyed the many attractions available. Didn't do the ice cream but will likely be back.

    Had a great Chocolate Chip here the past couple of years, and it's my go-to. Seriously delicious. Most recently, I decided to try the Rocky Road and was sadly disappointed. For some reason, they added almond extract - much too much almond extract that left bitter notes lingering on the palette. Unfortunately this overpowered everything else including the chocolate; a chocolate based ice cream should be chocolate forward. Instead of actual toasted almonds, which would have given that pleasing pop of nutty almond flavor, they used walnuts that, naturally, got soft and spongy. I had to try and figure out what that strange texture was that I was biting into. The marshmallow was some sort of sauce, had a very slimey mouth feel to it, and there was way too much in it turning the cone into a slimy, instead of creamy, treat. I don't think I've ever thrown out ice cream before until then. And it makes me sad because it's so simple to make an excellent Rocky Road. I honestly believe I chose the worst possible alternative, and thats completely on me (but if you want to bring someone you hate a treat, bring them this one). Service here is always excellent, the staff is friendly, the portions are good, and they do a great job overall.
