    Sadie’s Ice Cream Parlor

What a Treat

In our search for the ultimate summertime sensation, we looked high and low to come up with hand-crafted, locally sourced, and always delicious, creamy ice cream. Then we found Guernsey Farms Dairy ice cream, a third-generation family-owned Michigan company that crafts small batches of award-winning ice cream.

Sadie’s serves up unbelievably silky ice cream that is an outstanding essential to any day on Mackinac Island. The only problem? With so many delectable flavors, it might be hard to pick just one. Now enjoy downtown’s only soft serve ice cream at Sadie’s second location at the Grand Hotel Mackinac Market on Main Street in downtown Mackinac Island.

At Sadie’s Ice Cream Parlor, we scoop something different, something for everyone!

 

A Sweet Tribute to 250 Years in the Making

To commemorate the 250th anniversary of America, Sadie’s proudly presents its seasonal flavor: American Dream.

Long before the first scoop was served, there was an idea, simple, hopeful, and bold. The American Dream.

To celebrate 250 years of that spirit, Guernsey Farms Dairy introduces a one-of-a-kind creation: American Dream Ice Cream.

It begins with an Old Glory blue, rich, creamy, and unmistakably eye-catching. Swirled throughout are ribbons of red valor fudge, symbolizing courage and resilience. And folded in with care, the pure sweetness of white chocolate chips, representing unity, simplicity, and the enduring promise of something better.

But this isn’t just ice cream. It’s a moment.

A child’s first bite on a summer afternoon.

A family laughing on the porch overlooking the Straits.

A tradition started, remembered, and passed on.

Created in partnership with Guernsey Farms Dairy, this custom flavor celebrates not just where we’ve been, but the joy of where we are, right here, right now.

Because the American Dream isn’t just something you chase. Sometimes…you can taste it.
