It's shaved ice with delicious flavorings - it has to be good. It took me too long to find this place after driving by it every summer for the past 2 years.

I would give five stars, but one day I drove up and there was about 10 mins until close and the girls that were working saw us and closed down. Otherwise, best sno cones around. I love the blackberry cobbler one!

Delicious sno-balls and an overall gem to the community. The type of place that children and adults can frequent and make memories. My sons favorite is Frog in the Blender. I like the pina colada.

This place was great. They have huge cones and a long list of flavors, as well as a list of interesting flavor combos. I really enjoy that they poke a hole in the middle of the cone to better saturate the flavors. I had the 'Frog in a Blender' (cherry with a sour apple center) and my friend had the Strawberry Cream.

Really awesome sno cones. The only complaint I have here is that they're not always open when they should be. I don't think I'm the only person that has experienced this. Otherwise, literally the best sno cones around!
