What visitors say
Very reasonable rates. No Zamboni prior to ice time, though, so kids learning on very choppy ice. But I’ll take the no frills environment all day all year over the obnoxious overcharging that adjacent communities do (ahem Fergus Falls).
Nice hockey rink. But would be nice if they had a heater for all the fans... seems the locals just park their all tournament and let the visitors sit in the colder part. Classic whapaton/ Breckinridge...
First time was very impressed how friendly and helpful everyone was. Definitely a great experience
