Summer Just Isn't Complete Without Ice Cream! Top 4 Sweet Options!

Here are 4 Sweet Suggestions for Delicious Ice Cream - All within minutes of Plantation Resort!

Cooling off with a creamy treat boosts your beach experience from enjoyable to extraordinary!  With so many shops to choose from, we conducted extensive research into the subject (see how we suffer for you? ;-)).  Here are our top picks: 

 1. The Ole Fashioned Ice Cream Parlor (665 Highway 17 S, Surfside Beach, SC 29575)

The Old Fashioned Ice Cream Parlor scoops out some of the best ice cream on the Grand Strand.  If you’re hankering for Bluebell Ice Cream, this place has got your fix.  With a Plantation Resort coupon, you can take a friend or get some discount ice cream for the whole family. 
 
2. Meyer’s Ice Cream (1906 Business 17 N, Surfside Beach, SC 29577)

Upon walking into Meyer's you’ll receive an instant sugar high.  The smell of ice cream saturates every nook and cranny of this ice cream shop and gives an enticing prelude to the flavor about to erupt in your mouth.  Keep in mind that your GPS might take you to the wrong place if you just type in Meyer’s Ice Cream or if you type in Surfside’s zip code.  You need to type in the above address (with the 29577 zip code) to be sure to make it.

 3. Painter’s (2115-A Highway 17 South, Garden City, SC, 29575)

Make your way over to Painter's ice cream just down the street. This local favorite makes their own ice cream right there on site, and nothing beats fresh ice cream!  They pour ice cream milk into a big machine to make it nice and fluffy, add the ingredients and in 15 minutes they create some of the best ice cream around.  Be aware that this Painter's is one of three local Painter's  ice cream shops owned by different people, and this one is only about a mile away from Plantation Resort!

 4. Sweet Frog (2711 B Beaver Run Blvd, Myrtle Beach, 29575)

Sweet Frog was ranked #1 best ice cream shop by WMBF in 2012!  We saved Sweet Frog for last because it is technically frozen yogurt.  Frozen yogurt is all the rage, and it’s no secret why: lots of flavors, lots of toppings, get as much as you want and pay by the ounce.  Luckily, it's only a few miles from Plantation Resort.

In fact, all of these shops are located within a short drive from Plantation Resort.  If you prefer to stay on-site, there are many ice cream options to choose from steps away from your outdoor pool lounge chair.  The Poolside Grill supplies many ice cream choices or you could try out the Sundaes on Sunday activity (warning, this link takes lots of time to download) where you can put together a sundae with all your favorite toppings.  You deserve ice cream on your vacation and whether you like it poolside or at the beach, we want to make your vacation exceptional!  For a vacation worth remembering with lots of ice cream options, give us a call at 1-800-845-5039.  We'll save a waffle cone for you!
