Best ice cream in the northwoods. Very friendly staff. Great location in downtown Boulder Junction. Their Chicago dog was one of the best I've had outside of the Chicago land area. Highly recommended.

Went looking for a good hot dog (Chicago Dog, oh, yummy!) found a really cool icecream place as well. Great variety, food was delicious. Nice little Northwoods stop!

Honestly, this is the BEST ice cream place in the Northwoods! Their Chicago dogs and soft pretzels are delicious, too. The ice cream is super-premium, which is the highest grade there is. There are some truly unique flavors along with some rare classics. However, what's best about Mad Dog Jake's is the SERVICE! The employees seem to really care and even ask you about your adventures. They offer free samples and do whatever it takes to make sure the customer is happy. Even when there's a long line, everything is served with a smile. I wouldn't consider going anywhere else!
