If you review just the ice skating aspect of this place it is great. During open skating they play music, have employees out skating just in case of accident or too reckless skating and they continually groom the ice through the day. Seems everyone has their place - little aspiring pros out in the middle practicing their spins, families with littles holding hands towards the edges and those that just like to skate around.Well, the rest of the place is kind of ok. Seating is an issue when it is packed on a rainy day but it all kind of works. There are lockers but most people just stuff their shoes under the benches. The bathrooms are what the least favorite of the place but like most of your bounce house kid oriented type places. Kids are messy. The floors have mats on them so you can walk in there with your skates on. Almost impossible to keep them pristine. It could benefit from a paint job but it serves its purpose.The price is right for a couple hours of family fun. They rent skates and have a snack counter.Both my kids have taken lessons and I found them to be useful and the kids loved them. Good coaches.

I enjoy taking my kids here for open skating at random for something fun to do. This is especially good when the weather is not cooperating for outdoor activities. The skate rental and fees are reasonable, which results in fun for everyone.

We have been going to the Iceplex for years. Wonderful place for kids and adults alike. Great place for birthday parties! The rink is plenty large, and you don't have to worry about bumping into each other. The Iceplex also offers lessons for those that may want to do a little more than just skate around the rink.

Easy location, very little seating in rink itself, limited parking, toilets were not working but there were many many girls there. Easy access to 64, plenty of other things to keep you occupied
