If you're looking for a cold and creamy sweet treat, check out Mystic Ice Creams in the Magnolia Plaza on 466A East in Fruitland Park. Delicious homemade ice cream in some very interesting flavors. The parlor is decorated with Beatles memorabilia that that is fun to look at.
$5 for a generous waffle cone. Open 6-10 pm Wed- Sun only.
No, I don't have any financial or personal interest in this Villager-owned business, I just love good ice cream.

Since I live by 466A and have passed by it several times. I absolutely avoid the Haagen Dazs store in LSL since every time I have been there, the owner's seem to be incredibly rude. (just what I have witnessed)

I go by Mystic all the time to get to the post office. Have always wondered what the ice cream was like. Thanks for the recommendation. Will give it a try.

I avoid Haagen Dazs because I always feel that I get ripped off there. I keep a couple of spoons in the glove box in the golf cart and when we get a craving for a treat we go to Publix and buy a pint of Haagen Dazs.......the same thing happens at Baskin Robbins. A large dish is two golf-ball sized scoops. I don't mind paying more for good quality but I expect a decent sized serving for my money.

I went there, the ice cream was great and the owner is a really nice guy. Much better then
the place in town ( no name given ) but it is on lake sumter which gives over price ice cream in tiny scoops.

I was excited to have home made ice cream FINALY in The Villages.After visiting mystic many times over several months the ice cream all started to taste the same. Couldn't put my finger on it. I brought my sister that was visiting. She took one taste and said " Someth tastes like coconut or molasses" didn't eat another bite. Got her another flavor. Same thing. Lemon cookie flavor was the only one that didn't have the same taste. Now gone off the menu. We don't visit anymore. However if you like a very strong alcohol drink this is the place for you

I've been there and the ice cream is great. If I'm not mistaken, Mystic is owned by fellow TOTV'er Tom Harmon.
Some day we might arrange for a Beatlemanics of the Villages field trip.

Take 466A towards Fruitland Park and it is on the right about a mile once you pass Colony Plaza.
Sits in a small strip center, easy to miss.

Also look for the big Sweepstakes sign on the right hand side of the road. It's in this mall. Please stay for the magic tricks as it's quite an impressive show that the owner puts on. I only go for the magic :D It's amazing how I've gained weight just watching the tricks.

I cannot wait to try this ice cream place. I moved to TV last Aug and was shocked when I could only find two ice cream places in The Villages....
Looking forward in trying some homemade ice cream
Good Luck with your business

Yes, I've been there and it's really good. The owner is really into the 60's and all the music. He's a lot of fun to talk with.
Mystic Ice Cream is wonderful! Such a great assortment of alcoholic and non-alcoholic ice creams. The owner, Jeff, is a Villager and a great guy! They also do ice cream socials within the villages (pick up a flyer for more information). It's a great place to hang out with friends (they prefer adults... to many things for kids to break). The decorations are also very cool !! Give them a try!!

And when you're there ask Jeff to do his magic. He's really got some talent and he puts on an enjoyable little magic act. Plus you get to have the great ice cream.......life is great.

Mystic is open every day from 6PM till 10PM. On Saturdays he hosts a cruise in that starts at 2PM. After 8 purchases you get to spin the wheel. The best prize is free ice cream every week for a year. The mint chocolate chip is to die for.

Finally made the pilgrimage from the wilds of N. TV to Mystic.
EXCELLENT!! Great cream in creative flavors and the "adult" ice cream has a very nice kick. Cool funky decor and the owner does magic tricks.
Good enough that I am glad it is not just around the corner or I would need somebody with a wheel borrow to tote me around, ;-)

My husband and I went there on Friday. What a nice treat...both literally and figuratively. The ice cream portion was huge, the waffle dish was tasty and the pretzel was a nice surprise. It's a funky place with great memorabilia. We
watched "Casablanca". Highly recommend for something different.

It appears by the map on carting the villages that it is accessible by golf cart. Am I seeing that correctly?

Nope. It's on 466A well east of Colony in Fruitland Park.

Thank you to the many thousands of Mystic customers. Without all of you we would not be able to do the many exciting events and flavors. We are now open EVERY night, 6-10pm. Let the magic continue...
