Ice cream with a view?…read more We stopped into this cute little ice cream parlor- located along the side of a residential home with a magnificent garden- the other day for a cone after seeing their sign advertising Mooney's Ice Cream beckoning us from down the road. I have to tell you, that roadside signage certainly worked. It got us to detour off our normal route and stop in, so who says roadside signs can't sway the public? Anyway, we found this shop housed in a small outer building next to a fairly nondescript residential home on Corunna Road. Who would have thought there was such a nice little ice cream parlor there just from driving past? I wouldn't have stopped had it not been for the signage down the road with the big arrow pointing the way. At any rate, they had so many flavors, my stomach started rumbling right then and there from the sheer number of choices. They even had no sugar added sherbet and sorbet for the health conscious crowd, plus plenty of malts and shakes in a variety of flavors. The girl was that waited on us was friendly and pointed out her favorite flavors, even offering us a sample before we ordered, although the manager/owner who was outside moving a business sign wasn't terribly polite. She gave us and another carload of people a bit of a dirty look that I found a little perplexing, as though we were bothering her just by stopping in. Weird. After scanning what flavors they had, I had my heart set on the Sea Salt Caramel Waffle Cone (double scoop), while my husband decided on a Maple Nut Waffle Cone (also double scoop), both made from Mooney's Ice Cream. I decided to leave the dark chocolate varieties that I usually prefer to our next visit. Mine was delicious, rich and creamy and filled with huge chunks of caramel woven into the ice cream. I would get that again in a heartbeat. At some point, I sampled my husband's cone, which was also delicious. He's a sucker for maple anything (syrup, sauce, ice cream, cake, etc), so he was impressed that it had plenty of natural-tasting maple flavor and nuts mixed throughout. Despite the heat, both cones held up to intense glare of the sun and didn't start melting quickly, which is a pet peeve of mine. I really hate that. Luckily, our ice cream didn't collapse into a puddle of sticky goo right away, even though it was nearly 90 degrees. Both waffle cones were huge. Double scoops of regular cones were $3.50 each, I believe, but waffle cones cost extra, so our tally was about $8.00 for both of us. I thought the prices were pretty reasonable and the ice cream quality and size did not disappoint, either. We sat outside on the rear patio, where we enjoyed our ice cream while taking in a view of the gorgeous gardens out back. Row after row of beautiful flowers and shrubs surrounded the patio area. I must admit, I never would have known they had such a cute garden oasis out back, judging from the front of the building. Now, that's a way to enjoy an ice cream cone on a hot summer day. One caveat, though- it's strictly "look, but don't touch." There was a sign warning customers not to walk around the garden. As for the parking, it was a bit congested and limited, at best. The parking lot was tight and didn't allow for too many vehicles to enter/exit at once. Truthfully, we had a difficult time getting a parking spot and more people showed up after we did. Something should be done about that. In other words, if four or more cars show up at one time (on top of the employees/owners vehicles), good luck getting a parking spot. You probably won't find one. One plus, though- they're open late every night (til about 10 or 11 p.m.). Like most ice cream shops, they're seasonal. We were told they typically close for the season by Oct. 1. I wouldn't exactly say that I'm "over the moon" about this ice cream shop, but it was cute and the ice cream was great, so I'll stop in again soon.

I would recommend a Smurf (blue raspberry) Big Chill if you're looking for something refreshing, a Turbo Blast if you like Culver's concrete mixers (Uncle Rays soft serve is the BEST, you will not be disappointed even if you're not usually a fan of soft serve), or frozen yogurt for a fruity and fresh summer treat! There's seating outside and inside (with AC), definitely take a look inside if you get a chance because the wall is COVERED in photos of customers with Dave (the owner) and it always warms my heart to see! They also have ice cream cakes inside which are yummy and you can custom order one and pick it up later:) The mini golf is kinda a rip off now, $9 and the course is very outdated. The prizes are good and are a free ice cream or free stuff to other places local to Fenton which isn't ideal for travelers.

We made a special trip just to purchase. Based on what was posted on the website, we were expecting a large selection to choose from. In reality, there were just a few sugar free options and most of what was available was "low sugar" not "sugar free". Not worth the trip for us.
