I love this place! Yes, it’s small, but it’s not like they can expand the grass area to make the rink bigger! But of course more space would be great. Last I went was on Thanksgiving - while it was nice to be able to get out of the house & have a ~relatively~ spacious rink, I did worry about the employees who didn’t have the holiday off. They zamboni’d the ice approximately every 45 minutes or so (in the 2 hrs I was there), which was nice. Staff was friendly as well! The reason I give it a 4 stars is because of the ice skates. I’ve been going to this ice rink since it first opened ~10 or more years ago(?). I’m sure they’ve updated the skates since when they first opened but that’s my only *real* complaint. I have wider feet, which is one thing, but they’re overall uncomfortable (which I see in others’ reviews too!). I asked for a woman’s 8.5 which was way too small (I wore thin socks) - but 8-8.5 is my actual shoe size. I asked for a 9, but it was pretty big. I have thick ankles but even though I tied my left skate tightly, it was so loose, I sort of worried for my safety. It’d give it a 5 if they could update their selection & provide a bit more comfortable skates :) Overall, I had a blast per usual!

Make your reservations! This place is terrrific. An hour skate for about $15 per person was great! My boys, 10 and 12, skated for the first time and did terrific. They do have devices to help eliminate falls for the young and old. :) The rink is kept pretty empty given covid. I observed mostly teens on the ice, but they were respectful while exuding the holiday spirit. Reservations are handled nicely so there are limited skaters getting their skates and entering the rink at the same time. Its conveniently located near a parking garage, with many restaurants and hot chocolate within walking distance. I highly recommend this place.

The skates are so, so painful! I thought it was just the first pair I had tried on and exchanged for another, but the second was even worse. Had to take breaks because it was hurting pretty bad. Also, they kicked people off the ice ten minutes before actual closing which was kinda annoying and frustrating. The ice was pretty messed up too by the time we got there, which was later in the evening. Certain areas were super difficult to skate on, combined with the terrible skates. If you bring your own skates it's probably more enjoyable. The music and atmosphere provide good vibes.

It's a small ice rink convieniently located at the town center, in the middle of lots of restaurants. It was our first time and definitely enjoyable experience and could be recommended for beginners and experts alike. You could be practicing gliding holding on to the side rails but yeah be prepared to falls too (if you're a first timer or even a novice). Only downside was the rental skates was not the best/hard (may be less padded/cushioned?) and was in a bit of pain after a while. So best to bring yours. Tickets were about 15 bucks each.

Great for all ages, non-skaters and above! They have stands to help the kids, and adults, hold to something other than the rail. Skating outside under the clock and next to a Christmas tree in December is delightful! $14 gives you 2 hours of skate time and rentals. There are free lockers for your shoes and bags. Come when it opens if you want open area, other than that it stay pretty busy! Only suggestion, an attendant on the ice to keep the tweens skating counter clockwise.

Unfortunately I can't ice skate, but my kids when they were younger use to go here. Back when they first opened of coarse. They loved it for about 2 years then all of a sudden things changed. They stopped talking about it & stopped going. It was very weird.
