"My family and I always visit this area during the summer and we are always so excited to go to the ice cream stand. Personally I like the hard ice creams as there are so many different flavours (my favourite is black raspberry cheesecake) but I also know that the sundaes and milkshakes are really good as well. I haven’t tried the other stuff but let’s be honest it’s probably delicious. They HAD picnic tables outside so you could sit and eat your ice cream except they had to remove them due to Covid :("

"Love the ice cream. They serve soft and hard ice cream. My favorite is the Sundays. The Anthony family hires local high school students. This is great as they do not have to go far from home to get a summer job. The shop closes from September to May."

"A friend recommended Summertime Treats for a nice little drive and delicious treat. It's 30 minutes exactly from my house. No traffic, country road. It was a very hot, humid day. Took the family. This place is quite a gem. And very well known, locally. I overheard some customers ordering their "regular"! The selection of flavours could be more extensive, but we were all able to choose one we liked. They offer hard and soft ice-cream. Prices included tax. Portions were huge! Other items on their menu included sundaes and banana splits. We will definitely be back!"

"Where we normally get sundaes, we pay the same price for their small and it's half the size of this small sundae and the ice cream is hollow in the centre. Summertime treats fills the dish with ice cream and toppings! Awesome value and delicious!!"
