Nice entry lobby area. Its not uncommon, but the lack of parking for tournaments is frustrating.

I think we all forget about Skate Ranch because it's out of the way, but it's definitely worth venturing out there for. I can't wait for my next event!

My friends and I agreed that we would make a monthly event of skating. The atmosphere was so positive and all your cares just leave. Of course, we all thought we could go pro, but we knew that would be a joke on to many levels. The stress of the week was forgotten and we all said this will become at least a twice a month adventure. The owner, Sarah was down to earth and even gave us tips on not falling as often as we all did. All I can say... if you have had a hard week, or want to go have fun and laugh... Go to the Skate Ranch. If you do and see the owner, Sarah....please tell her Sally said HI!!!

I can't believe that after paying for entry, rentals, renting the handles for young kids learning to skate, food and games that they make you pay for wrist bands to play in the play place.

Skate city is over all a fun time place for kids, adults, families, and large groups…read more The facility is nice (a little old, but that honestly adds to the "roller rink vibe"). It has a play zone for the little kids, some arcade games that you can play to win tickets, a snack shop, and the rink. It also has lots of seating for spectators. Skating was fun, and I love all the different special skates and games, but after making 3 song requests, we realized that they do not take requests. They also played the Big Guy song by Ice Spice, which was just annoying. Also there was this 14 year old boy and his girlfriend getting very physical. It was very uncomfortable for us, and even though the employees saw it, they said nothing. We ended up needing to go over to them and tell them to break it up. Ive been coming here since I was a little kid, and never experienced something quite like this. But, over all I would recommend Skate City for families and anyone who likes to skate or play arcade games, especially because admission is so affordable.

I had a Denver Omelette and the food was great as well as the service. This is not a fancy place but a place where the locals go with prices that are unbelievable.

Looks like any wheels go as they have bikes, scooters, roller skates/blades to use. The price is fair $8 to be on the floor. I just wish they had more hours, but I guess they probably don't get a lot of business. The couple who run it are really helpful and friendly. An update I'll mention is to call 1st before you go to make sure they are open. As far as I know it's Friday 7-10, Saturday is only for strictly parties, Sunday's during the school year maybe open, but owner said call 1st.

I really liked the ice surface, it was fast and well maintained. Detliev was really nice and I enjoyed talking to him. Even with COVID the rink was as accommodating as they could be. They have an indoor sheet, an outdoor sheet, and plenty of locker rooms. The sight lines are great as fans, though it is a bit chilly in there. The rink has wifi, but not live barn (yet). So if you want to stream the game you might want to ask the rink before your next tournament. Plenty of parking, especially out back. We would gladly play here again.

They were a decent amount of animals to look at from birds to bears. The only downside is that the animal exhibits were only a few which isn't bad if you're three for picnics or exploring the forest/play on one of their various playgrounds. They do have a concession stand in their welcome center but doesn't look like much. All in all, a good place to spend a summer afternoon if you way to plan a picnic or do something outdoors as well as spend some time petting animals!

We spent a good couple of hours just watching them doing bird things, including ostentatious displays of power and mating ability. This year, we went in fall and the birds were away. We did see some bison behind a fence. It's quite amazing to be three feet away from them, something which you wouldn't be able to do safely in the wild. Further down the road, there are a couple of donated buildings: an early 20th century area school and a 19th century pioneer log home. The school is a particularly fine piece of architecture. Scattered through the park are many pavilions and covered picnic tables. It's a great park and zoo!

The Chippewa Valley Railroad operates on a loop in Carson Park, across the street from the historic…read morebaseball stadium. Appropriate for kids of all ages, especially those of us with grey hair that remember the real thing, the railroad operates passenger trains pulled by live steam or "diesel" power. The diesel, actually a model of GM's famous F series locomotives, runs on a Wisconsin internal combustion engine. It was built by the Miniature Train Company sometime between 1948 and 1956. It is one of at least 5 such trains operating in Wisconsin. (Fond du Lac, Oshkosh, Green Bay, Wausau and here.) Chippewa Valley Railroad goes the typical MTC railroad one better with live steam. You can ride the MTC train or a live steam train. The loop is about a half mile and takes you along the bluff above the Chippewa River, past a picnic shelter, over the road that takes you to the depot, past a silent observer (keep your eyes peeled!) before returning to the station. When your train arrives, the next one departs. The trains were obviously built for little people but there is an open-air gondola that's a little more comfortable for larger folks. It's pulled behind the steam engine. Rides are reasonably priced, considering ticket sales are the only source of income for this rolling museum. It is manned by volunteers who love railroads, and you can tell when you speak with any of the staff. The Chippewa Valley Railroad only operates during the summer and only on Sundays and July 4. You might think it's only for kids. In that case, borrow a couple of kids from the neighbors and go ride the train.
