The rink was nice. I really enjoyed the beach theme. I didn't get a chance to skate but I enjoyed the ambiance. The fried oreos were great. This is worth checking out

Very fun, I took my family and we had a blast. We went ice skating, then sat by the bonfire for a little bit, then went into the enclosed picnic area (it started to snow) for some Chickies & Pete's crab fries and beer. It was one of the highlights of the winter season and I would come back again.
