Big Dipper Ice Arena

Visited Big Dipper Ice Arena for honeymoon/vacation. I fell in love.

We visited Fairbanks, AK for extended vacation/honeymoon and while in Fairbanks we found Big Dipper Ice Arena. We decided to visit there because I had never been ice skating ever.

Found the Big Dipper easily with google maps. Called for available hours and went right when they opened. It was during the weekday so there was not a crowd when I visited but I did get to meet the owner/manager and husband. We got to talking like if we were old friends. Both of them were very helpful. They were aware that this was my first time ice skating and gave me the preparations and equipment I needed to have a safe and fun time. I was on my own as soon as I found my ice legs and fell in love.

I would recommend this to be one of the stops on your visit to Fairbanks, AK. The staff was friendly and personable. They were extremely knowledgeable and will make sure that you have a fun safe time. The vibe there is very chill, no pun intended, safe and family friendly. In my opinion this is a 10/10 great, great fun. I hope you visit Big Dipper Ice Arena if you do visit Fairbanks, AK and I hope you do the same as I did and fall in love with it, even if you fall for real.
