Love the vibe! We went on a Friday night and they had a band playing on the roof. I love that it's right on the lake! The flavor selection is impressive! I got a chocolate and vanilla twist with sprinkles which was very yummy. I thought the prices were normal but I live in the city so I am warped and twisted. My only complaint is that after eating mountain mist ice cream, my friends and I all had horrible stomach pain and were trying to vom for the rest of the night:/ Dairy sometimes upsets my stomach but this was on another level. But this place is still a fun spot to check out! read more

Dropped & Enjoyed a nice vanilla soft served ice cream. Staff were friendly, Service was exceptional and flavors are plentiful. Only negative is Limited parking availability in which it's adjacent to a boat business. Other than that , great place to enjoy a classic ice cream with a mellow ambient atmosphere of nature. read more

A great local ice cream place with friendly staff and great flavors.....You. An enjoy your ice cream overlooking Lake Saranac!!

A refreshing, fun, and convenient treat! I got the pistachio and vanilla swirl cone and enjoyed it on a comfy chair by the lake. I'd say this is the best ice cream place by the high peaks region. They also offer food including veggie burgers and alcohol including wine. Come here for a quick meal with a gorgeous view! read more

Mountain Mist Ice Cream - Pistachio and vanilla swirl - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Saranac Lake, New York

Mountain mist is a great ice cream place. The reason I gave stars is because my parents ordered a regular twist for six dollars and it was extremely tall and my parents were very happy. I ordered their they're twist and swirl which you can choose if you want chocolate or vanilla and put any candy you would like on it. I ordered a regular and it came out in a small dish for eight damn dollars do not order their twisted swirl. It is a scam. I paid eight dollars for a regular twisted swirl which was extremely small. Do not order what I gave one star cause the service was great. I like the people the boy was definitely not staring at me. And it has a the back and free Wi-Fi. And the ambience was extremely great. read more

The only thing bad I can say about Mountain Mist is that the portions are too big! It would take the better part of a day to get through a large cone. Great soft ice cream and terrific shakes! read more

The family stayed at Saranac Waterfront lodge for 4 days and had ice-cream sundaes, shakes, smoothies and snacks here due to convenience. I know each order was 4-5 items but every single time the order was completely wrong. We got shakes instead of smoothies, extra charges of ice cream we never asked for...Or wrong add-ins. We didn't complain until the last day. I ordered 4 ice creams and my email receipt showed an incorrect 5th order. When I complained they didn't care. FYI always ask for a receipt. Also it was the same teenage girl each time that messed up the order. I can afford the errors but if you can't then speak up. read more

wow! Great ice-cream. Medium cone was huge. Definitely a great place with an awesome young counter person!

Really good ice cream ! They have four sizes ( baby, small, medium and large ) small is definitely more than enough. The portions are very generous. Anything bigger is 100% share size. If you can finish it alone, kudos to you! I've visited this place every day of my week long, lake vacay and it was great every time. The servers are very friendly and patient. I also ordered fries here and they were AMAZING ( for my French fry snobs ). Made to order and served hot just hot I like it. read more

Mountain Mist Ice Cream - Medium vanilla ice cream with cherry dip and he gave me a whole cup of sprinkles! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Saranac Lake, New York

We stopped here based on Yelp reviews and it was decent. The ice cream was good--$14 for two chozens, a root beer float, and scoop with peanut butter sauce. The chozen was exactly like a blizzard from DQ which is good but oh man these were the smallest ice cream portions I have ever seen. Tastes just like any ice cream I've had anywhere else. read more

Google has the name listed as Mountain Mist Custard so I was disappointed to show up and see that the sign says "ice cream". It was standard ice cream. I don't think they make it in house. We tried their Panda Paws and it had cute little chocolate panda paws. Cones were standard cake cones. Overall just an ok experience. read more

Always a great addition to a boat ride! Rich, soft serve and many options, something for everyone! Would definitely recommend!

Delish! I got 2 cones with vanilla custard for my dogs, a small custard with sprinkles, and a sundae for $12.

Ten months after trying this place for the first time I am here again and soooo glad to be here. I am very picky about having a small size ice cream cone so I order a baby twist. To me more isn't more. I always order the kid sized or baby but here I could eat so much more it's just so refreshing and obviously homemade. We come by boat and meet friends who join us by bike. It's a wonderful spot with room to sit out back by the water. Today's flavor of the day was banana and many folks in our group had it twisted with chocolate. Sooo good. I'm upgrading to five stars after trying many places in the area and elsewhere. They have a wonderful mix of excellent quality custard style ice cream and affordable prices... Plus you can can't beat 'em in the ambiance department because of the of water front location. Bring your friends and come hungry. read more

Great stuff! Stopped by here one summer evening recently. Yummy ice cream. Fast, polite service. Beautiful views of the lake. What more can anyone ask for? read more

I've loved this place my whole life. A soft serve cone on a dock on the lake...what could be better?! What's better is their new covered,open air seating, also dockside! A great, family friendly spot to have a burger or dog and a cone or sundae while watching the boats go by. I took off a star because the service is slow and disjointed. One of the servers said it's because it's no particular person's job to serve the seating area...they all just catch it as they can. Management might want to rethink that. Otherwise, i love this place! read more

They have good flavors and they're friendly people The ice cream flavors are very tasty. Yum read more

There's another soft-serve ice cream that people love nearby, but we found the we like Mountain Mist more! Higher quality flavors -- the chocolate actually tastes chocolate, versus just "sweet." The black raspberry was YUMMY! And we loved that there is a choice of flavors, versus the other place where they choose the flavor and you just choose the size. A beautiful lake to enjoy your custard by ... tastier custard ... choices of flavor ... who could ask for more? We liked it so well we came 2 days in a row! read more

I was super stoked to try this place and ended up being a bit disappointed. It was a decent place for ice cream but the custard was not particularly smooth and creamy and there were issues in the sundae: * Hot fudge was a cold lump that got dropped on our sunday. * Custard, which I love because it's usually warmer and smoother than ice cream or gelato, was borderline hard ice cream. * Banana custard tasted like they used banana flavoring and not actual bananas. It was decent ice cream but there are certainly many other places I prefer. read more

What can you say about this place... It's good ice cream... Today was three flavors chocolate, vanilla and black raspberry... But they do all the Sunday's you want... They also have all the finger foods you want too... Hamburgers, hot dogs w/ optional meat sauce, French fries and onion rings... Great thing is their on a Main Street with houses and motels next door and in front of it... And the lake behind you... So you can walk in, drive in and even pull in a boat for a bite... read more

good ice cream, great location, a bit over priced.. we got their DQ blizzard knock-off, m&m in chocolate ice cream. tasty but small for $4.75 read more

Good place to stop in for some soft serve (flavor of the day today was coconut) and ice cream...although there were only 3 flavors for soft serve (chocolate, vanilla, and coconut) and 2 flavors for ice cream (moose tracks and cookie dough). The soft serve was super light and tasty, but the ice cream was overly heavy and sweet. The parking lot and back area to sit by the lake is an added bonus. They offer burgers, dogs, etc as well. read more

A cute little ice cream "house" that looks a dated but in my opinion, its not a big deal because the breathtaking view makes up for it. The cozy ice cream parlor sits on a beautiful lake in Saranac. Upon researching, I found that it's called Lake Flower. Regardless of the name, it's wonderful to sit on the dock in back and eat ice cream, etc. The place also serves fast food. My husband and I both had a milkshake which was good. Can't beat eating ice cream on the dock taking in the wonderful view. read more

Very tasty hotdog called a Michigan. I won't describe it other than to say think of it as a hotdog with the meat marinara sauce. Yes, the frozen concoctions are very good. I love the setting in the back looking over at Lake Flower. read more

So delicious. I got chocolate with chocolate sprinkles and it was soo good. It was a little pricey, but given that I was visiting from out of state I bought it. Great view of the lake from right behind the cute little building. read more

5 star ice cream stand. I had a soft twist and it was fresh, creamy and delicious. The great part about this place is that it is also right on the water. One can eat out back on the deck/ docks. Watch the ducks and sunset! read more

One expects ice cream to be good, and it is here as well. They have 5-7 flavors of hard ice cream, and 3 soft: vanilla, chocolate and cappacino. What makes it outstanding however, is the quality of the soft ice cream. We have seldom tasted richer ice cream, like it was made fresh and with real cream. This was a nightly stop on our vacation. Now if it was only low cal! read more

My favorite place for a treat in the summer! Love the banana flavor and the great view of the lake! Service is always friendly and the prices are affordable. read more

What a cute little ice cream stand! They have three flavors of soft serve ice cream: chocolate, vanilla, and a changing flavor of the day. When I went, the flavor of the day was blueberry. You can get cups, comes, waffle cones, and there are some toppings and hard-shell dip options too (cherry dip on vanilla was very good!). Four servings are offered, baby, small, medium, and large. We got two smalls and they were a good size, a little less than what I imagined was a medium actually! But here's the best part: the ice cream was incredibly good! Rich in flavor, perfect amount of sweetness, really thick and smooth but still light, it was perfect. I also liked how it held its pretty twist shape and takes a very long time to melt. Plus, fast, friendly service. Low prices. It has some nice waterfront seating so you can eat while looking out at the lake. Overall, this is the perfect place to make a quick stop for simple, delicious ice cream. A very fun experience, we will be back! read more

Great frozen custard, smooth and creamy and very rich. A fine cone

Generous sizes. Friendly staff. Places to sit outside. Accessible from land and lake.

Great service, ice cream and food. Had a great burger and fries and a soft serve cone dipped in chocolate. We took it all out to the dock in back and sat and enjoyed our lunch with a beautiful view of the lake. read more
