“The Best Candy and Ice Cream Store in Eagle River, WI
If you’re anywhere near Eagle River, do yourself a favor and make The Country Store your first stop. This charming local treasure is hands-down one of the best places to visit in the Northwoods—especially if you love homemade fudge, ice cream, and chocolatey treats that are out of this world!
Let’s start with the fudge: it’s made fresh in-house, and it’s truly the best homemade fudge in the Northwoods. Rich, creamy, and available in a mouthwatering variety of flavors, it’s impossible to leave without picking up a slice (or three). Their chocolate turtles and other handmade confections are equally irresistible—perfect for gifting or indulging right on the spot.
The ice cream selection is another reason to stop by—especially with kids in tow. With classic and seasonal flavors served in generous scoops, it’s the perfect treat on a warm day or after a day of exploring Eagle River. My kids always ask to stop here, and it’s become a fun tradition for our family!
Beyond the sweets, The Country Store offers a delightful mix of locally made gifts, unique home décor, Wisconsin souvenirs, and gourmet goodies.
Whether you’re a tourist passing through or a local who hasn’t stopped in for a while, this place is a true gem. Treat yourself—you won’t regret it!”
“Fun yet classy gift shop. Super friendly service. Perfect if you are shopping for someone.. Even if that someone is yourself, lol. Great selection of super soft pajamas.”
“Excellent fudge! Tried the chocolate fudge and it was sooo good! They also have a large selection of taffy. We walked in and were immediately welcomed by the employees. If I'm in town again I'll make sure to stop here.”
