This Dairy Queen location has been a seasonal favorite in the area for decades. I have been coming to this stand alone since I was a kid in the early 1970s and still enjoy their swirl cones with the chocolate candy shell.
But also be warned... they are only open seasonally! Yep, they are closed over winter. If in question, call them to find out when the season starts or ends as it is not always intuitive. They also do not offer the full Brasier menu. Many of the lunch and snack options available at other DQs are not here. I did see hot dogs on their menu boards but didn't see burgers nor chicken strips. There is no indoor seating nor covered patio seating here. There are a few open picnic tables on the side of the parking lot. Hot sun or any rain gets uncomfortable here quickly and in the evenings the mosquitos come a-callin'. Finally, they have no customer restrooms available. None. Fortunately I keep a water bottle and paper towels in my car so I could wash my hands after my cone dropped all over me.
I give this location a lot of credit for surviving when so many of its siblings and competitors have failed the tests of time. A LOT OF CREDIT. The soft serve dipped cones are a classic. The blizzards are great. The ice cream cakes can make a 5 year olds birthday.
Sadly there is a lot that this DQ just does not offer. I wish it could be more then a three star but as it is three stars is generous.
