Great rink, locker rooms are big and have warm showers, but parking is a pain and getting to the locker rooms is a pain if you walk in the front. (It's much easier if you go down the hill all the way and go through the back door by the Zamboni ramp)

★★★★☆ Samson, Dec 2016

They offer open skating here. They have ice skates if you don't have your own, for a small price. The arena itself could use an update though as it is inferior to its counterpart located in the the fitrec down the block from it. The skates could've also used a sharpening last I went to skate there.

★★★★☆ Sonya, Jul 2018

My daughter has an ice skating class here. It is a nice ice rink and arena, but the changing rooms need an update and a better maintenance.

★★★★☆ E, Feb 2024
