With homemade ice cream and treats, there's something for everyone here! What's really cool is that you can watch them make their famous ice cream from a window in the store located at Grand Landing. This ice cream shop is open all year long - they even offer half off ice cream when it's snowing!

Grab a few "skoops" of your favorite ice cream flavor at this fun seasonal shop located on the east side of US-31 in Grand Haven. They even have a drive-thru!

Grab a cone and something sweet at this downtown location. You can eat your ice cream and watch them make fudge in the front window... then walk back in to get some fudge.
Head across the drawbridge to this beloved ice cream spot in Spring Lake! The porch itself offers swings to relax in as you finish your cone of their homemade ice cream. If your name is featured on the sign out front, you get a free ice cream cone! Photo credit: Kevin Stinehart
