“Great place to skate and also to bring your family.”
Sarah Bank
“I went to public skating on a random Saturday at 7-9pm. It was fun, inexpensive, and I didn't have to pay or fight for parking. 10/10 and would recommend to everyone. Just a heads up that there aren't any lockers so leave stuff you can't carry in your car. There's a water dispenser for water bottles near the rink.”

“We love skating here, the guy who comes once a month to sharpen blades is totally worth it. The ice is hard and he understands that. Snacks are also well priced. It's tremendous quality per dollar spent. I recommend it for a family outing.”

“Christina Miller below could not have said it better. Save your money and go somewhere else. The rental ice skates were the worst I have ever used. While ice skates should be tight, they should not cause instant and constant pain ending with blisters. Also, they are low quality. The ice was never treated. The concessions were closed. And, there were no lockers. I saw brave people leaving their purses on the floor, granted there were probably less than 15 people there so odds are you won’t get robbed. I mentioned that they should invest in better skates, but the counter employee said they would not be anytime soon. Public skating is clearly not a priority to the company. Not even sure why they offer it.”
