    I used to go to this rink when I was a kid. It was dark and a little creepy I'm not going to lie. Since the renovations it has been a site for sore eyes. All of the incredible memories without any of the downside. The renovations make it feel like an inviting and friendly place. Management is incredibly kind and respectful. And the venue is super clean as well.

    Mike and his crew have really transformed this iconic ice rink. We had such a fun family night on the ice! It was also nostalgic as I skated here 40 years ago. My kids got to enjoy the same experience from my childhood and I was happy to see them light up with joy. We went two weekends in a row, the first being my wife’s birthday and Mike arranged for the whole restaurant to sing her happy birthday. That was a wonderful memory she will have forever. The second weekend was for a Halloween theme night and we won the costume contest! They had treats and pumpkins for us all and it was a real pleasure! What a great rink, amazing staff and an overall awesome time. Can’t wait to be back!

    I did the adult instructional hockey for the past two months. I improved a lot as a skater and player, met some great people, and had a lot of fun. The staff is great and the chicken tendies always hit the spot after being on the ice. Shame they have to close the barn for the summer but I'll see you in the fall. Looking forward to the new rec league!

    The bartenders weren’t overly friendly and the bar food wasn’t very good. The burger, fries, broccoli cheddar soup… fried pickles so greasy and not crunchy. Very sad considering how much we all used to love the fries and pizza in that bar after practice! But it was cool to check out an old rink I hadn’t skated at in over 20 years. The ice was actually hard!
