Visitor tip
Dress in extra layers and bring warm clothing - multiple visitors specifically noted this rink runs colder than other ice rinks in the area, so be prepared for frigid conditions even with the heated lounge area available
Visitor tip
Rent skates early in your visit or bring your own - reviews mention rental skates may not be properly maintained (dull blades, rust on figure skates) and aren't sanitized regularly, so quality equipment is worth the extra effort
Best time
Verify locker room availability before your visit - reviews mention some locker rooms are small or have maintenance issues (noted issues with room #5), so arrive early to secure a good spot

What visitors say
It is a bit colder than some other ice rinks that I’ve been to, but still a good rink. It also feels more spacious than a standard NHL-sized rink and more like an Olympic-sized rink, although I think it is technically an NHL-sized rink.…
Nice clean rink. Not too big, locker rooms small. Cold.
Nice venue. Easy enough to find, decent amount of parking, good facilities and friendly staff. Nice warm area off the ice too!
