Jimmy Grey, 25, of Aquilla, near Cleveland, said he'd needed a project to keep himself busy, reports the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
His four-room igloo has 6ft ceilings and an entertainment room. He powers the TV with an extension cord plugged into an outlet in the garage.
He also installed cable television with surround-sound stereo, enabling him and his friends to watch the Superbowl in his icy mansion.
Mr Grey said candles help to add ambiance for night time get-togethers, and the freezing temperatures mean the beer is always chilled.
He got the basic construction materials by clearing the drive of his family and his neighbours after a snowstorm in January.
Mr Grey says that he's enjoyed pouring his energy into the project after nearly a year of unemployment.
"If anybody needs a hand and wants to hire a hard worker, I'm the guy you're looking for," he said.
