Frank's is one of the better ones, and they seemed to have everything you could possibly need if you're camping at Sleeper State Park. Because we packed lightly, we ran out some supplies and came here for convenience. Most of their common merchandise is reasonably priced, and they have a large beer selection. I needed more beer, and their 25-ounce Budweiser cans are priced right at $1.79, but the cases of beer were overpriced ($8.29 for a regular six-pack of Budweiser cans). They have some souvenirs too, and I got a pretty high quality Sleeper State Park coffee mug for only $5.

The staff were all super friendly and they have their system down to a science so you won't have a long wait if it's busy. They had three dairy free vegan ice cream flavors on my visit, I tried the Black Cherry and it was amazing. They use an oat milk base but it doesn't have the typical oaty aftertaste many dairy free ice creams do. I was so happy with the options and that they even had more than one. There are tons of traditional dairy flavors to choose from and a fun quirky decor. Portions were generous and we enjoyed sitting outside next to the building in the little courtyard area. The location is also close proximity to the water so you could easily walk across the street and enjoy your ice cream by the lake. We will definitely be back on our next trip in the area!

We…read moreheard about the large scoops of homemade ice cream at Grindstone General Store and headed over immediately. When we arrived, we saw a huge line out the door, with cars parked all along the road down probably around a quarter mile. That seemed promising! As you enter building, you snake through some of the eclectic goods the store sells - things like custom made chess sets, cute cartoon character and fish shaped soaps, etc. It looks like all of the good being sold are local or at least from Michigan. You'll have plenty of time to browse, since it takes almost 30 minutes from setting foot in the shop to actually reaching the front of the line. It's actually overall pretty well organized. There are two doors on the exterior of the store, but they removed the outside handle on one of the doors so it can only be used as an exit. The shop mainly serves Stroh's ice cream, but they have a tub or two of Guernsey Dairy, and a freezer of ten home made flavors. Of course, we had to get the homemade ice cream only. Please note that the owner can be kind of gruff - before you get to the counter, make sure to know exactly what cone, size, and flavors you want. I don't think they offer any samples. Two Scoops in a Cup ($4.25 first scoop, $2.25 second) - They certainly aren't lying about having giant scoops of ice cream! They actually have a display up showing that a scoop is softball sized with a 14oz volume. That's basically like a pint by itself. We decided to get two flavors in a cup: Horchata and Black Raspberry Bugaboo. The horchata is rich, creamy and filled with vanilla and cinnamon. The ice cream is premium (but I wouldn't say it's super premium) with generally low overrun and higher butterfat, giving a delicious creamy mouthfeel. The sweetness is perfect for ice cream - it's sweet but not achingly so. There are a small amount of ice crystals that formed around some of the cinnamon, but it was only a very small amount and not detrimental enough for me to drop my score. (5/5) The Black Raspberry Bugaboo tastes very artificial. It takes the flavor of raspberry and amps it up to 300% so that it's very sweet with a heavy artificial tart flavor. It's studded with chocolate cups that are filled with maraschino cherry type of flavor as well, and mixed with ribbons of Hershey's chocolate fudge. Not my favorite flavor of ice cream (I was expecting this to be natural raspberry), but I can see it appealing to some. (3/5) There's a choice of sugar cone, waffle cone ($1.25 up charge), or plastic cup. We opted for the cup for two reasons: the sugar cone doesn't look like it can contain the amount of ice cream they serve, and it looks like they get their waffle cones premade from Jagger Cone. The waffle cones come with a paper holder with a flare around to catch any ice cream drips. If you want to enjoy their homemade ice cream at home, they do sell prepacked quarts in a freezer. I wish there was an option for smaller scoops; while I managed to finish two scoops with my partner, I saw many others whose eyes were bigger than their stomachs and ended up having to throw out most of their ice cream. In fact, we saw large piles of ice cream sitting in the nearby trash can. What a waste of food. Bathrooms - Single porta potty outside Overall rating of the food this visit: 4/5
