Carl's Ice Cream

This old-fashioned ice cream stand is as famous and popular as any historical attraction in town. People have been known to wait, literally, in the snow for what many consider to be the best ice cream they've ever had. But don't let the long lines fool you, since the longest of lines seldom keeps you waiting longer than 10 minutes. The flavors are basic: chocolate, vanilla and strawberry; but the flavor is tops. Cones, sundaes, shakes and malts comprise the entire menu. No drinks. Bring a few pennies to use on the cup dispenser for a cup of water.

Carl's is open 7 days a week from mid February to Mid November.
