The only thing we love more than winter is spring. The only thing we love more than spring is summer. The only thing we love more than eating seafood in the summer is eating dessert. What kind of dessert do we love best? Ice cream, of course! And the only thing we love more than an ice cream cone in Maine is a huge ice cream cone in Maine. You’ll find that and more at this beloved spot.

Scoop Deck in Wells got its start in the 1980s when Suzanne Erskine Fretwell began the fledgling business out of her parents home.

Doug Erskine has run the shop ever since, growing the business exponentially. His son, Scott, joined the team in 2006 and in 2012, Scott’s wife, Emily, joined the business. In 2013, the parking lot was expanded and the barn added making this a one-stop shop of all things ice cream!

And by “all set” we mean you’ll have your ice cream. We’re still not sure how to help you finish it!

And with so many flavor options, they have to be. How else will you be able to get through the entire flavor board in one summer?

We love things like Muddy Turtle, featuring vanilla ice cream laced with caramel ripple and brownie bits. You might also want to try Peanut Butter Iditarod, which comes with rich vanilla ice cream, chocolate peanut butter cups & swirls of peanut butter.

Plan to spend at least 15 minutes selecting a flavor. But, we have a feeling that finishing your cone might take significantly less time!
