Picture this: a charming seaside cottage where the aroma of freshly made waffle cones mingles with the salty beach air, and sixth-generation locals craft award-winning ice cream that has become a 30A tradition.

Blue Mountain Beach Creamery started over 20 years ago when owner Christine and her young son Jed migrated from Canada to a seaside cottage on the corner of 30-A, and under new ownership since 2021, it’s now run by sixth generation locals who take pride in the quality of their fresh, homemade ice cream, sorbets, and frozen yogurt.

This beloved spot sits perfectly positioned across from Redfish Village, just a short walk from Blue Mountain Beach access. You’ll find yourself drawn to their front window where the magic happens daily – serving homemade ice cream, yogurt and sorbet, as well as waffle cones made fresh daily from 11 AM to 10 PM every single day.

Signature Flavors & Sweet Treats

Award-Winning Chocolate: The Award Winning Chocolate is fabulous and consistently mentioned as a standout flavor that keeps visitors coming back. You’ll taste the rich, creamy perfection that earned this flavor its prestigious recognition.

Creative Seasonal Offerings: Unique flavors available include apple pie, espresso with toffee, and banana pudding, while other popular choices include Bananas Foster, Brownie Batter, Birthday Batter, Muddy Sneakers, Blueberry Cheesecake, Strawberry Cheesecake, Peanut Butter Caramel Cookie dough, and Strawberry Fields. Each flavor showcases the creamery’s commitment to imaginative combinations.

Homemade Waffle Cones: The homemade waffle cones are delicious and made fresh throughout the day. You’ll hear the satisfying crunch as you bite into these golden, aromatic cones that perfectly complement any ice cream selection.

Generous Portions: They give a huge amount of ice cream, enough for 2-4 people, depending on the size of scoop. The double scoop option provides excellent value and easily satisfies multiple people.

The Shake Shop: Behind the main creamery, you’ll discover their second operation offering milk shakes, Charlie’s Donuts, Lucky Goat coffee, frozen custard, Bill’s Lemonade and sno cones, open daily from 7 AM to 10 PM.

Specialty Sundaes and Concretes: Their ice cream is the true star of the show and getting your favorite flavors as a Sundae only proves to elevate the experience. You’ll want to start by selecting your ice cream flavor, like Cookie Butter, Strawberry Cheesecake, or Salty Banana Foster. Their Concretes blend mix-ins directly into frozen yogurt for a perfectly integrated treat.

Atmosphere & Setting

Charming Cottage Vibes: The same house that is now known as The Creamery of Blue Mountain Beach maintains its original seaside cottage charm. You’ll feel like you’re visiting a friend’s beach house rather than a commercial establishment.

Perfect Beach Location: A hometown creamery just a short walk from the Blue Mountain Beach access. Located across Scenic 30-A from Redfish Village. You’ll find it incredibly convenient whether you’re coming from the beach or biking along the 30A trail.

Bustling Energy: No matter when you arrive, be prepared to stand in line because they’re always super busy. The constant flow of happy customers creates an energetic, vacation-like atmosphere that adds to the excitement.

Other Considerations

Premium Pricing: You should know it is expensive: $7 for a single scoop, $9 for a double scoop, but if you don’t want to pay the price go to the grocery store – buy your own cones and an ice cream machine and make it yourself…this is a resort and vacation area – not a discount shop. The quality and generous portions justify the premium cost.

Payment Options: While traditionally cash-only, although their website states they’re a cash-only establishment, they do accept debit cards, too. Come prepared with either payment method to avoid disappointment.

Peak Times: Be prepared to stand in a long line if you go after dark, but though there always appears to be a long wait, the line moves fast. The efficient service keeps things moving despite the crowds.

Family Tradition: We go there pretty much every night we’re on vacation in the area and it never disappoints. Many families make daily visits part of their 30A vacation routine, and you’ll likely find yourself planning return trips too.

Morning Coffee Service: They only serve coffee until 6 pm, so arrive before then to get your fill. The early morning hours offer a quieter experience with fresh donuts and premium coffee.

Branded Merchandise: Want to share your love of Blue Mountain Creamery wherever your travels take you? Just buy your very own branded t-shirt to wear on all your travels. The shirt featuring their iconic building serves as a perfect conversation starter with fellow ice cream enthusiasts.
