Always amazing flavors. To gatherings I bring different flavors and I only hear complaints, last one I brought the sorbets and everyone said the best they have ever had. Family owed, very nice, kind friendly faces. Always a great experience and yummy too. Worth checking out. read more

Loved this cute little stand! The Redlands orange sorbet was delicious and not too sweet- just right. The single scoop was big and worth the $5! Friendly service with a smile read more

Happy Camper Creamery - Employee Appreciation at its finest! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Redlands, California

Looked up places for a quick treat and tried to avoid the typical ice cream chains. So happy we made the decision to try this place. It's a little hidden in the back corner of the parking lot. The service was fast and the employee was attentive . The gelato was really good. Keep in mind there is no where to sit and dine it is more of a grab and go place. We don't live in the area so ended up needing to finish our treats in the car before having to travel home. The have the option to have your ice cream in a bowl or a cone. read more

Y'all I found my all time favorite icecream/gelato place ever! Thank you yelp and thank you to my bf for suggesting a place other than our usual a la minute. I can't believe I'm finding out about this place now, and it's only 2 minutes away from us Food: absolutely delicious, every single flavor was so tasteful, the name exactly described what we were expecting and more. The dark side (chocolate with chocolate chips) was the perfectly chocolatey, blueberry lemon sorbet was amazing balance of sweet fruity and tart. Brownie crumble had fudgy bits of brownie mixed with vanilla, I had to get a whole pint to go! We had the chance to try out basically every single flavor and all of them managed to impress us. Apparently all the gelato and sorbet here are handmade on site by the owner, and for the orange sorbet, she even hand picked them and juiced them herself! Price: single scoop (which can still be 2 different flavors) was $4, double scoop was $5.5, and each pint is $9. But if you do 3 pints for to go, there's a discount and it only costs $22.50. What a deal for such high quality handmade gelato and sorbet, we ended up getting a single, a double, and 3 pints haha Ambiance: small little cute store in a big strip mall complex, it's kind of hidden away in a corner. Just enough space for about 10 people standing up, no tables or seats. It's just a grab and go kind of place, eat and share your icecream outside or at home. It was not busy despite it being weekend, it has been 2.5 years since this place opened, and I think it's not well advertised, but hopefully that's about to change, since I'm going to tell all my friends and their mothers about this place! Service: gosh the owner Erica is such a lovely human being, you can clearly tell that she loves her job, she was so nice and friendly, let us try out all the flavors on the menu, what an amazing experience! She was smiling, we were smiling, she's spreading so much joy and happiness, and I hope many many others in the community will come visit this place soon Parking: ample parking space and lots of available spots within the strip mall complex read more

Great flavors!! I wouldn't call this "gelato" it's ice cream nonetheless the flavors are 10/10 and great service!

I'm a Happy Camper here at this Creamery and if you haven't seen passionate and bubbly before then Erica, the owner, is the definition of it. She welcomed us with open arms practically and let me sample almost every flavor on the menu. In case you don't know, this is a creamery where everything is made inhouse. The gelato and sorbets are both simply amazing. Their oreo flavor is the best seller, the blueberry lemon sorbet is also amazing. Darkside, orange sorbet, goodness, the list never ends. Everything was so good here, I just couldn't decide so we got scoops AND pints. Anyway, I could rave on and on about this place but the best way to truly appreciate Happy Camper is to go and support Erica herself. Buy lots of pints and eat lots of gelato for ultimate happiness. You won't regret it! read more

I was working in the area, and had a craving for something light and cold. I'll admit, at first... I thought Siri (no, not my wife) was getting me lost. Keep looking y'all, you will be rewarded with freshly made (in-house) gelato. We were helped by the friendliest employee - I'm sorry, my memory has been in decline since birth - I think her name is... Elise (my apologies) ... she was very helpful and patient with us. Try some samples if you wish. I tried the coconut and that's all I needed to taste... Coconut it is! Wow, the freshest-tasting coconut gelato I ever had. So smooth, creamy and tiny crisp shreds of coconut, not artificial tasting at all. If I were packing dry ice, I'd have ordered a few pints. I highly recommend this place, and of course it needs to be said, l'm a "Happy Camper" for coming here. Ahahahahaha, sorry... not sorry :) read more

First off my name is Breanna and I love happy camper creamery ! My company promised ice cream on a hot sunny day. I thought we were gonna get like Slurpee's or something. I was really surprised and happy to have tried the dairy free mango sherbet. it tasted authentic and had real flavorful tastes. There was real mango inside. she also had like a coffee one and a cookies and cream strawberries, but I kept going back for the mango. Never have. I tried ice cream like this. They take it to a whole new level and it's family owned. She's very sweet. read more

Located in a quiet plaza that looks like it was once comprised of industrial offices. There are no seats inside, so we sat on the four outside benches. I was hoping for American ice cream, but Happy Camper Creamery actually makes gelato and sorbet. That's on me for not checking though. I got the double scoop for $5.50 before tax. Flavors were okay. I tried the lemon bar; It was more lemon than crumble/bar. I also identified something too sharp and perfumey that I didn't like. Next, I tried the German Chocolate Cake. It was a chocolate gelato with nuts and shredded coconut. I thought it could have used a caramel swirl (to evoke the frosting element) or actual cake pieces, but the taste was alright. In the end, I asked for a scoop of German Chocolate Cake and Whopper Crunch. Unfortunately, the two flavors were indistinguishable. The Whopper Crunch used the same chocolate base, and there were no discernible pieces of whoppers or crunch. read more

It's hard to express in a short review how much I love this place. It is right next to my kids' gymnastics so naturally we end up here a lot, and the people are so kind and sweet to my kids. I love coming here. Ice cream is great. They often go to places around town to promote their brand. I love this creamery not just because of the tastes and will be back. read more

We love this cute ice cream store. It's decorated so nicely. We're glad that they are opened until 8 pm. We've been here before and craved their ice cream for dessert. Everyone picked their own flavor for pint size. Our kids got S'mores, hubby got coffee Oreo and 8 got the coffee chip. Employee was friendly and quick with her service. read more

Little creamery with gelato and sorbets that are egg free unless a mix-in has egg. The flavors are very pure. I got pumpkin. Brother got praline with small pieces of pecan in it. I sampled the Key Lime Cookie and I loved the fresh lime flavor but was on the fence about the sugar cookie (a bit mooshy?) but I can't stop thinking about it, so I'll have to go back. This is just a tiny storefront but there are a good amount of flavors on offer and you can have tastes, as the kind gal offered. There a much longer list of flavors by the pint to go and those are frozen harder so if you didn't bring a cooler you don't have to worry about fast melting. read more

Meh. I got Oreo and chocolate. Just tasted like a sugar bomb. No depth, no toppings other than sprinkles and brownie . Would not return.

Conveniently located by several other local businesses that we frequent, happy camper creamery as always a delicious stop. The ice cream is good, and they have regular flavors to please my picky children, as well as less typical combinations that are equally delicious. They don't really have seating indoors, so given how hot our summers get it's not the most comfortable place to eat your ice cream when you buy it in California space comes at a premium. I also wish we were able to try some of the flavors, particularly the ones that are not common ones to make sure we like it before we order it or buy a pint. read more

Saw this place on instagram so I decided to check it out. I walked in and was instantly hit with the smell of waffle cone. I didnt catch the name of the employees but costumer service was amazing. A girl served the ice cream while a young man made waffle cones. She kindly gave me a double scoop of pumpkin pie in a waffle cone and a single scoop of Oreo cream to my friend. The flavors of both were incredible and the serving size was huge. Definitely going to come back! read more

Delicious. Lots of options. Owner was very friendly and personable. We purchased a few pints and enjoyed all the flavors. Will be coming back. read more

Cute cute place. Love the flavors. The service was fine. It was one lady and she was super nice. I felt bad for her because there were so many of us be she didn't seem to mind! So sweet of her. The place has no where to sit inside. There are Benches outside if you want to sit outside. But no where to really hang. It's also in a corner with other small business so no where really to walk and sightsee. But it a good place for ice cream ! Will for sure be going back read more

I'm happy to have found Happy Camper Creamery, but not as happy as the owner is to talk about it (see pic with expressive hand gesture). Bubbly is an understatement to her enthusiasm about her business and love of ice cream, gelato and sorbet - and the quality of the product shows. Our family stopped by after a day trip to the Palm Springs Windmill Tours (see my Yelp review). One of the best of her ideas was that a "scoop" is really two mini-scoops. We, personally, love the idea of having 2 different flavors, the ability to mix and match (of course, you can get 2 of the same - but why?). All the creamery products are made onsite with quality and flavor in mind - not mass production. BREAKING NEWS: they will be making waffle cones starting next week! I can smell the cooking of the cones already. We had 4 cups and 8 flavors. We not only enjoyed the flavor combination but we rationalized that gelato was healthier for us since it uses more whole milk and less heavy cream. We left quite a bit happier - plus a pint for later. read more

Brilliant. Erica (owner and crafter) is so creative and talented. She'll go to Italy and order creams from international countries for quality. The flavors are always changing but her regular flavors, ones you can count on (some type of chocolate, Oreo, sorbets) are all incredible. Personal favorite is any lemon or Redlands orange. The service is also great-everyone is so genuinely friendly. Don't be fooled by the location-it's such a special place you'd expect it to be in a pretentious small town but it's a sweet, humble, DELICIOUS, woman-owned business. Ready, set, GO! read more

FIVE STARSSSS!! 1. The decor is so nice!! And if you have the privilege of entering right after the waffle cones have been made *angels sing* it smells DELIGHTFUL!! 2. There was only a single worker when we visited (beware the lines caused by this) but wow she was the SWEETEST lady ever. She was so nice about giving us samples before we picked the flavors we wanted (not sure smoothly this will go if the store is crowded--when we went, it was blessedly empty) 3. The GELATO flavors were ON POINT okay? It was so hard for me to narrow my desires down to just 2 flavors in my cone because so many of them were delicious [I ended up getting the Coconut Almond Chip+ Oatmeal Cookie = AMAZING] 4. I think the only misc comment I will make here is: I wish there was a size between 2 kiddie scoops (which = regular scoop offered) and a pint. Like maybe a medium gelato bowl or a larger scoop option? But that could just be because I'm greedy and wished I could leave with more than 2 reg/small scoops, but less than a full pint. 4. Will I be returning here? ABSOLUTELY. 100% YES! read more

My wife and I absolutely love this place. Can't believe it took us almost three years to discover it, Their gelato is the best! They change up their menu weekly so you know they care a ton. Their flavors are rich yet subtle, you have to try it. Erica is amazing, as is her daughter. Service is spot on. They have a couple benches right outside so you can enjoy your gelato. Super chill vibe all around. read more

Love it here! Staff is super sweet and friendly. The gelato is amazing! I love that you can sample before getting a scoop or two the ambiance is so welcoming and the cleanliness 10/10. read more

Gelato in Redlands? Something you don't see so much in this side of town. Love Happy Camper Creamery, have been supporting them since the pandemic days when they would sell Ice Cream of IG and deliver it to you door. So glad that they finally have their own brick and mortar! Located in the old plaza that houses Escape Brewery and the lost but not forgotten yoga studio that was very much beloved by everyone. If you drive into the plaza, the store is all the way in the back, right corner. Tiny little shop with a bit of outdoor seating, but that's all you really need. Customer service was great, two younger kids who were very patient as I asked for gelato samples. Can't wait to come back to try more flavors and I am really truly happy to see this business grow. read more

Since it is about 150° outside we decided that ice cream was the perfect solution to the heat! This place is tucked away in the corner of an industrial strip of stores. It is so cute! The two girls working were sweet and knowledgeable about the flavors. When we arrived we were the only ones there so it was nice to be able to take our time and go through the big list of flavors and not feel rushed because we felt like we were holding other people up. We chose Stracciatella, s'mores, and peanut butter cup. We were all very pleased with our choices and were more than happy to share with eachother because each flavor was better than the last! The Gelato is nice and creamy and delicious! I can't wait to try all of the flavors!!! I love that they offer a punch card...even though that could be VERY dangerous since we're in the area once a week! I think this is going to become a weekly stop and family favorite! read more

Hidden gem right here! Delicious. Amazing texture. Better than A lá MínHour (an hour in line any time). There are tons of great flavors, both authentic and playful/inventive. I'm going downtown to sample town every time because they have so many new options. The 3 flavor deal on pints for $22 is good, too, if you know how much real gelato goes for. read more

What is in an ice cream that tickles your childhood? This place did that yummy and not overpowering; sweetness, and it didn't kill the flavors. I was a "happy camper." You have to try this place! The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. They make their ice cream, and it's different flavors every day. If you wait till the end of the day, the flavors get limited because they get sold out quickly. It's hidden and small yet classy and has a comfortable/cozy appearance. I went experimental, didn't go conservative, and tried Coffee Chocolate Pretzel and Coconut, which were deliciously made well. They sell in a cup/waffle/pint The prize is not that bad Please don't get lost looking for the place, and it's back inside a commercial complex that is not commonplace. Indulge in summer or cold days, and you won't regret it (unless you're not a kid at heart). read more

Tried both the praline and oreo flavors. The praline flavor was apparent but not as strong as I thought it would be. The texture was a bit on the grainy side... maybe due to the nuts? I can see why the oreo flavor is one of the popular ones. It was creamier than the praline and flavor was stronger. I would get this again! The pup also approved of her dogelato! Not a lot of seating options but plenty of parking spaces. read more

I was in the mood for some ice cream. Looked up ice cream and Happy Camper popped up. Happy Camper Creamery is gelato ice cream. Quiant small. Appears everything is made onsite (which is nice). They do not have a large variety but ok. The gelato was okay. Taste/flavor was tasty. If you like gelato I recommend. However you want ice cream - this is not the place. read more

This place is tucked out of the way and a little hard to find, but definitely worth it! I walked in, and it smelled like waffle cones baking. Yum! The owner greeted me immediately. She's very nice, and she offered me multiple tastes and flavor combination suggestions. I enjoyed everything I tasted, but the standouts were the root beer float (flavor, not an actual float), the coffee oreo, and the mint brownie. I got a double scoop of the last two on a freshly baked waffle cone - it was still warm! I also picked up a pint of the coffee oreo because it's just that good. I'm not in this area often, but when I am, I'll be back! read more

Today I enjoyed a couple scoops of Happy Camper Creamery Hot Cocoa Gelato. Wow! That stuff is over the top. One of the nice things about gelato is that it is served about a dozen degrees Fahrenheit warmer than ice cream. That additional temperature enhances the interaction between one's tasting sensors and the gelato. Gelato flavors are simply more sensational than ice cream flavors. Taste buds tend to numb when contacted by much colder ice cream. But, let me tell you about the Hot Cocoa Gelato from HCC. There's nothing like it anywhere. Upon moving a spoonful of that delightful frozen dessert into my mouth gastronomic euphoria was triggered. The silky chocolate essence of that gelato, amplified by miniature marshmallows, was way beyond what I expected. I urge you to try some. You'll ask for more. read more
