We rented out one of the two ice rinks they have for a school event. They made the process easy. There wasn't much supervision, but most of us are adults and the kids who did come were with their parents. Their prices were better than other rinks for entire rink rentals. There is also a little arcade area for kids. The items in the crane games were lacking and it was $1. The place itself is older and could use some updating but things get so wet around the ice rinks that anything newer would get ruined too. The concession stand had a good variety of drinks and snacks/food for a reasonable price. Drinks ranged from Monster energy drinks to chocolate milk; hot chocolate to frozen slushies.

Just a truly wholesome place to enjoy ice skating. The vibe is decidedly communal with two rinks and various hours to free skate. On the Saturday afternoon I went, I think the open skate session was open from 2p - 10p which was generous. Wanna know what's even more generous? The pricing was $8 for an adult to skate for all day - including skate rental. Either these fine people haven't raised their rates since the 80s, or we've got a very reasonable local venue to get social, bring a date, get some exercise and enjoy. My favorite aspect was that I saw - zero - people with cellphones in their hands. Way to live in the moment and enjoy!

Moylan Iceplex is well known to locals but quite a few families travel from other states to take ice skating lessons or the hockey programs. Our family highly recommends the Moylan Iceplex for lessons or free skating (they rent skates if you don't already have your own)

While taking part in an ice hockey tournament, we watched as the Zamboni driver put down an exorbitant amount of water, to the point where we could see visible waves as he made his passes. The water was pooled on the ice most of the game which made for a dangerous and sloppy situation. After our game we watched as he did exactly the same for the next game. When we asked one of the rink workers about it he shrugged and said "It has been like that all day" and walked off. There does not seem to be much care in the quality of the ice, even when hockey teams have paid good money for a quality tournament experience.

This place is less than 5 minutes from our home and offers a reasonably priced fun activity for the family. The price is $8.56 (random) per person during open skate. The also on occasion offer family skate nights where everyone can get in for $10. Walkers are available for kids. They also have a reasonably priced concession stand .Some of the skates are a little beat up and they could definitely stand to upgrade the lockers, which are probably older than me but this is overall a nice facility.

They have 2 full size rinks, full rentals and food!! Lots of general skate times, but also figure skating lessons (talk to Alexei) and hockey. Just installed a new hockey skating treadmill where ether can work on skater's technique. Big weight room too!

My daughter and her friends had been wanting to ice skate, so we stopped in over their winter break from school for some skating. While they do host hockey teams (practices and games), we were here for some free skating. First off the price is right. Around $8 gets you access to two full size rinks and rental skates. These days that's pretty cheap entertainment, especially when coupled with some 80's rock playing overhead. If you are an adult and either can't skate or don't want to feel like your feet are being bound like in ancient China, there are bleachers to sit in or tables in the main entrance. They do also have 'walkers' for beginners to help them get around the ice. For those who make an afternoon of it, they also have a snack bar if you need something to eat. So yeah, in a nutshell it's a place to go ice skating and it seems like cheap fun in my opinion. The girls liked it so much they came back less than a week later.

Just to be clear, this is an ice skating rink and the map is wrong, this place is on the little spur road in the park to the east of where it shows on the map.I really like to go here with my youngest son. They offer quite a bit of public skating time and reasonable rates. For $20 we can skate until we are beat and it is almost never really busy.They have two full sized rinks inside this facility and are open year round. Although we usually end up going there in the winter, it is a very fun time to go there when it is hot outside too.They have all of the usual stuff, skate rentals, concessions, etc. They lose a star for having almost no parking, er, well they have lots of parking but it seems to be all up several flights of stairs which can get a bit slippery in the winter. In the summer it is fine though, and I can't think of a better place to be when it is 90+ degrees and 100% humidity this summer.Their schedule is available on the website.

Public skate is a joke if you truly want to skate and not trip over people for an hour. No organization. I left after 20 minutes. Kids that can't skate and need a massive plastic walker should be on the outside and those that actually want to come skate should be on the inside. Seems simple. Kids going horizontally, the wrong way, groups of people just stopped chatting on ice. So many kids getting inured and crying. What a mess. I love the Learn to Skate here, but public skate was a terrible experience. I'll go to Motto McLean for $4 and some order.

For the price, not a bad place to skate; however, there is zero staff supervision on the ice. During public skate, there were many kids basically using the walkers as bumper cars so to speak and crashing into each other (on purpose) and using them as torpedoes against each other. Again, since there was no staff supervision, this continued the entire session. It was not only annoying for those trying to skate but also dangerous especially for those who were actually trying to learn to skate (particularly younger, smaller, children). Also, the ice was not cleared before or anytime during the entire three-hour public skate session making the ice very rough the first 30-45 minutes.
