This place is awesome. They have family hockey every weekend and have very reasonable rates. Can’t wait to go back.

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Best for families wanting affordable recreational skating and hockey activities, with excellent viewing areas for parents. Bring your own skates if possible as rentals are worn, and stick to casual skating rather than serious practice sessions due to inconsistent ice quality.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

πŸ’‘Bring your own skates - rental skates are quite worn out
⏰Weekend family hockey sessions offer the best value
🎟️Take advantage of balcony seating for good viewing of activities
πŸš—Avoid expecting premium ice conditions for serious figure skating practice

β€œGood ice skating rink! Skate rentals are pretty worn out though, so if you have your own that would be best.”

β€œI use to love figure skating here for practice before work on freestyle sessions I don’t like that the ice isn’t cut it’s a safety hazard. I understand that the rink is on a budget and they constantly looking for Zamboni drivers and don’t want to pay or give more hours for the workers to cut ice real early in the morning but skaters don’t want to pay 22 or more for ice that isn’t cut for some one doing foot work, jumps and spins and knee slides it’s a safety hazard I try to avoid public sessions due to me or other skaters getting hurt since there unaware of figure skating patterns and reading them and many rinks are charging at least 24 or more due to inflation but at least the ice is smooth It pains me to give this one star because I love the workers there just not management.”
