💬 What Visitors Say
- The ice quality is exceptional and consistently excellent, making this venue ideal for speed skating or anyone who wants a fast, smooth skating surface. However, visit for the ice experience primarily, as other facilities need updating.
- Bring extra layers and dress warmly - the rink can get extremely cold in some areas, particularly in the bleachers where heaters may not be fully functional. Avoid the upstairs viewing room which has reported mold and odor issues.
- Pricing is fair and competitive compared to other DuPage County rinks with no price gouging on public skating sessions. Take advantage of the two rink sizes (NHL and International-sized) - the International rink offers more space for speed building.
- First-time skaters and families report having great experiences here. The staff is friendly, the environment feels safe, and there are Learn to Skate programs available for beginners of all ages.
- Plan to eat before or after your visit - the on-site snack shop is limited. However, the nearby Schnitzel Platz beer hall (27+ years established) is within walking distance and offers excellent German food and atmosphere.
