This ice rink will be closed after last Sunday, probably reopening in October. It's not a full indoor rink, so they close it during hot seasons. It's where my daughter takes lessons and enjoys happy times with friends. The staff is friendly, and you meet nice people there. Highly recommended. Thank you all the staff! See you soon!

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Best for families who don't mind outdoor skating conditions and can handle seasonal closures. Good for kids taking lessons with reasonable pricing, but be prepared for cold temperatures and potential weather-related shutdowns. Avoid if you need consistent year-round access.
