Leah moved to North Dakota when she was 12 years old and has traveled from the Red River Valley to the badlands and many places in between. She loves small-town life and currently enjoys living on a small farm in the ND prairie. She's always had a passion for writing and has participated in novel writing challenges such as NaNoWriMo multiple times. Her favorite part about this job is recognizing small businesses that deserve a boost and seeing the positive affect her articles can have on their traffic, especially in rural areas that might have otherwise gone overlooked.
After a hot summer day out in one of North Dakota’s most iconic and beautiful areas, what really hits the spot is some delicious, cold ice cream. You couldn’t have a more perfect day with that combination! Luckily, there is an ice cream place there and even though it can get a little busy during this season it is well worth the wait in line. Here’s why:
Exploring North Dakota's beautiful badlands is a lot of fun, but it can get a little tiresome and hot on a summer day.
The best area to explore the badlands is right by Medora, North Dakota. This small town is a tourist destination everyone should visit at least once. It has a multitude of attractions to make your visit to this amazing landscape a memorable one. There are museums, an old western feel, themed hotels, the famous Medora Musical, and of course a lot of restaurants. Plus the Theodore Roosevelt National Park South Unit is right there for your adventures. But during your adventures, you'll need a pit stop or two to rest and cool down.
The Medora Fudge and Ice Cream Depot is the perfect place to get off your feet and enjoy some tasty frozen treats.
The Medora Fudge and Ice Cream Depot is open seasonally like the rest of the town. You can visit it between May and September. It fits in with the rest of the western theme of the town, with an old wood exterior, lovely patio, and indoor parlor.
Whether you are in the mood for good ol' regular vanilla or something fun like birthday cake ice cream, Medora Fudge and Ice Cream Depot has you covered!

As the name suggests, ice cream isn't the only thing they serve here. If you truly have a strong sweet tooth, you'll want to sample their homemade fudge as well.
