What an awesome town ice rink! Friendly staff, and good rental skates. Took our kids there for their first time on the ice and they loved it. The walkers of course play a huge part in aiding them on the super slick surface. I may have caught one trying to eat it like shaved ice (sigh.) For $5 it included skates vs $20+ at American Dream down the road. What if the kids didn’t like it? This was a safe bet. What’s more was we got treated to the opening minutes of a hockey game that immediately followed the obligatory Zamboni watching ⛸️

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

This is an excellent budget option for families wanting to try ice skating without breaking the bank, especially for young children and beginners. However, be prepared for potentially very long waits in cold weather and the possibility that popular skate sizes may be unavailable. Best suited for patient families who prioritize affordability over convenience.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

πŸ’‘Arrive early as it's first-come-first-serve for skate rentals
⏰Expect to wait outside in cold weather for up to 2 hours during busy times
🎟️Popular skate sizes (5-12) often sell out, so have backup plans
πŸš—At $5 including skates, it's much cheaper than nearby alternatives like American Dream ($20+)

β€œI’m not a professional ice skater by any means, but this was my first time ice skating here. I called in advanced and i was told its first come first serve for the skates so I made sure to get there a little before the time they opened. The workers are so nice and they have many ice guards or staff in the rink that help you when you fall or teach you how to skate. I was shock by how cheap it was to skate here and how much fun I had skating!!! 100% worth it for the 2 hours. I will be back”
