Great place. The kids had fun. Pros: - friendly staff - reasonably priced food & snacks - adequately sized sitting area Cons: - they ran out of balancing bars for learner skaters - the food & drink options are limited - some of the plastic tables and benches were unstable & flimsy and caused the kids to fall

We had a wonderful experience. The staff was very kind and helpful and the kids had the best time! My only issue would be birthday party check in should probably have two people helping if several parties are planned or maybe allow birthday parties to enter early to get situated. But overall great experience.

Can you rent out the whole facility for a private party ? The website is not very helpful.

Makayla Blunt | Oct 27, 2019
chris hansen | Oct 27, 2019

Yes you can. Usually on a wed or Thurs evening or sometimes week days , from my past knowledge there's a 100 person minimum but you don't have to have 100 people show up just pay for that in the past it worked out to 5.00 a person but if you were doing a fundraiser they would only take 3.50 a person and give you 1.50 . But that may have changed . Best would be to call the office m thru Fri 9 am to 4pm .. good luck

How many Children are allowed to skate at once and what are the rules they should be taught before entering the Floor? These children are out of control and very dangerous I am still Icing my shoulder after they threw themselves on the floor Fri.

Michele Engelskirch | Oct 27, 2019

Children are pretty much allowed to experiment on their own as long as they follow the posted rules. There are no tests etc to determine if a child is ready. They usually have staff that skate around helping kids out that have problems or seem dangerous.
