“We enjoyed this small, but fun, loud, friendly skate rink. The skate rentals were clean, in good shape, quick. Fees are reasonable, 12 to skate, 3 to rent skates. Bottled water $1. Staff was super helpful and friendly. We rented the helpful rolling bars for $5 for the little one who had never skated. She practiced on the padded walkway around the outside first, and caught on. The three middle kids had lots of experience on online, so quickly adapted to 4 wheels. The oldest was a little wobbly, but the 3 sides with rail to hold on to helped. There were no tall rolling bars left, but a kind young man overheard and offered to trade a smaller one for his taller bars. The rolling bars helped to get them circling confidently. Dad enjoyed skating too. Plenty of tables, seating around perimeter for non-skaters. This was a great rainy day activity.”
