Ice cream is a classic treatment for a broken heart, but fortunately, this tasty delight carries far more positive associations. Our REALTORS® always have a smile on their face when they visit one of these wonderful ice cream shops near Beavercreek.

1. Graeter's Ice Cream - 2330-A N. Fairfield Road, Beavercreek, OH 45341
   In 1870, a simple ice cream cart was the seed for what became Graeter's Ice Cream, one of the more beloved ice cream parlors around Beavercreek homes for sale. The fourth generation of the family still uses the small-batch French pot process started by patriarch Louis. French pots are also the secret behind Graeter's signature chocolate chips found in more than a dozen of their gourmet flavors, including Buckeye Blitz and S'mores. Graeter's Beavercreek is open seven days a week from 11 a.m. - 11 p.m. 
   
   
2. Young's Jersey Dairy - 6880 Springfield-Xenia Road, Yellow Springs, OH 45387
   Is it an ice cream shop or a family fun center? Young's Jersey Dairy is both. Their delicious ice cream is made right on the farm, using a technique perfected over decades of experience. Young's is also a veritable amusement park, with activities and attractions such as a batting cage, mini-golf course, carousel, and petting zoo. Stop in at the Dairy Store for breakfast and sandwiches as well as packaged ice cream to-go.

3. Jubie's Creamery - 471 W. Dayton-Yellow Springs Road, Fairborn, OH 45324
   Inspired by memories of their own family traditions, founders Stacey, Fred, and Julie opened Jubie's Creamery to create that same warmth and happiness in the community around Fairborn homes for sale. How good is their ice cream? The core flavors of chocolate and vanilla beat stiff competition to earn blue ribbons from Cornell's prestigious Dairy Extension Team. Kitchen Sink, one of their whimsically named seasonal "Junk from the Trunk" flavors, is a heady mixture of salted caramel ice cream, M&Ms, peanut butter cookies, peanuts, mini-marshmallows, Heath Bar pieces, and sprinkles. Jubie's also offers soft custard in a variety of flavors. Hours are noon - 10 p.m. daily.

Countless people have found happiness sitting on the Shake Shake patio with a cone full of luscious soft serve ice cream or one of their monster shakes in flavors like Zebra Cake and Grasshopper. Looking for a full meal deal? Shake Shack's big brother, Rip Rap Roadhouse, is right next door. Enjoy some pizza, burgers, or BBQ before heading out back for dessert. Shake Shack is open every day but Monday from 2 p.m. - 8 p.m.
