Since our discovery, we can't wait to go by and treat ourselves (which has become a weekly thing). Different because the ice is "rolled" into small round cylinders and all the goodies in and on top. You'll love it!

Traveler advice
Getting around
Best to rent a car if you fly in. Do not rely on Uber/Lyft
Prior to 2020, our guests were reporting easy Uber/Lyft service. But, we are no longer seeing a lot of activity in our area.
