Tucked away a bit off the beaten path, Sullivan, IL is more than just a charming town. We love it here, and we also love going to get some ice cream on a hot summer’s day. Or a spring day, or a fall day, or any day! We have a great spot here in town, and to reach the other, you’ll want to pack the kids in the Chevy Tahoe and take them for a little drive. Thankfully, the Tahoe is so roomy that a 30-minute drive will seem a lot shorter, even with kids in tow!
