Open on selective days of the week so be sure to check their hours before heading over. We got lucky! They definitely accommodate to tourist days which worked great for us. We got two different flavors- a half scoop of each. One was cookies and cream and one was a house special they have/make. I can't remember but the pairing was delicious! Perfect in a cake cone. Nice treat for yourself or to share. Plenty for the two of us that night. Not too far of a drive from Galena and easy to find parking.

We jumped right into a scoop of the campfire - a smokey, non-marshmallow-based ice cream with chocolate and a cold brew blackberry chip - a caffeinated, not so bitter, sweet with blackberry chunks ice cream. The people who were helping us (who we also presumed had owned the place) were incredibly sweet and had us sample a ton of ice creams without asking. I guess in the same vein would recommend the salted vanilla bean!!

This is a great local spot to stop in to get a scoop of ice cream and then take a walk around the lake or just sit at the dairy bar and enjoy the view. I don't remember the brand of ice cream they serve, but I think it's made locally. You can also order food here, but I didn't see any menu to order off of. Maybe you just know what's available. Or you have to actually talk to someone to get the menu?!

New Glarus is a must visit when in Wisconsin. At the very least to buy beer that isn't available in…read moreany other state! I've been before but this time around it was a little different. The brewery is under construction until next year so it's a little bit restricted in what there is compared to when I was last here in 2019, however, it's still worth a visit. They do have a large gift shop/beer depot. I always buy a lot of beer to mule back to KC. On this visit they had a limited beer release so it was busy. The individuals working in the depot were a bit rude to be honest. I don't know if they were just over it because there were a lot of people, but they weren't friendly nor very helpful. If it had been my first visit, it definitely would've been a turn off. The individuals working in the gift shop were nice. I bought a few Christmas gifts from there. After I bought all the merch I wanted, I headed across the street where they had a makeshift tasting room. They had lots of tables to sit at outside. In the tasting room you have the open of a pint or 3 tasters. You get to keep the glass either way you go which is pretty cool. I went with the taster option. They give you a glass and a bracelet that has 3 taster tabs that they remove as you get each one. The individuals working that station were nice and friendly. I love their sours and had to get pours of the strawberry rhubarb which is one of my favorites. They also have a self guided tour. It's on the smallish side but still cool to see even with all the construction. The bathroom situation was a bit iffy. Definitely try to use the gift shop bathrooms because otherwise it's porta-potties or there are restrooms in the tour area. Those are pretty run down and the stalls don't lock. My apologies to the poor lady I walked in on mid piss with her pants around her ankles. Overall, it's definitely worth checking out especially if you've never been. I can't wait until they finish construction and I'm able to return to see what it looks like.

The Swiss hotel is very cute and located less than 2 blocks away from the downtown area where the fests were. The hotel is also dog-friendly, which was important during our stay. I'm giving 4-stars because the hotel needs a little upgrading and my husband didn't care for the breakfast he had. The scrambled eggs were watery and there wasn't any butter for the pancakes. Also to note, our room was neat and looked clean but we noticed the recycling hadn't been taken out and I'm certain the shower wasn't cleaned before we arrived because there was a white residue all over the shower handle. Overall, I would stay here again because of the location, it's dog-friendly, and I loved the Swiss charm.

We had to bring it up to the front desk THREE times and they really could not have cared less. Sleeping was a nightmare as we were so hot and uncomfortable. Beds are very uncomfortable as well. Pool area definitely could use some repairs. Hot tub tiles are busted up, and sauna area was pretty dirty. It's an old hotel, and I can appreciate that, but for the price, they need to raise their standards.
