 No, he's not pulling your leg.  It's worth the trip, certainly to go 50 miles if you've never been there, 10 miles if you have.  Where are you coming from?
 They've spruced it up in recent years, and it's a good site for a company picnic (bumper boats, driving range, stuff like that.)
 The ice cream is as good as ever (I think, but it seemed richer when I first had it because I'd never had ice cream like that before.)  It is superpremium (extra high milkfat) and well done in terms of flavors.
 There are threads about ice cream every summer -- there are quite a few local ice cream makers in greater Boston that get rave reviews.
 Kimball Farm Ice Cream (not the other way around) is in Littleton or Chelmsford, MA on Route 110 which is just south of I-495, which is to say about 25 miles northwest of Boston.  On a map the Nashoba Valley Ski Area is nearby.
