Skate time was a staple years ago when my kids were younger, now my grandkids are going. We did tot…read moretime on Sunday with my 3yr old, which is for little ones under 5 to enjoy the rink. Last year when I took them it seemed more geared towards the tots. This year it seems like their siblings, if they are older, can join, the rink was packed with people. Good for skate time, I'm glad the new owners are doing well. I would personally prefer less people for my grandson to enjoy it more, but that's just the grandma in me talking I guess. Reasonably priced, the adults go in free & pay for skates if they so choose. Planning an adult night with friends.

Went on a Thursday during the holiday week between Christmas and New Year's. It wasn't that busy…read morewhich was great and we picked a 4-5:30pm slot hoping to catch sun down being nestled in the mountains. Thankfully it was warmish for this time of year as I was afraid being in the mountains we would be freezing. It is $5 to get in to park your car which is totally fine. Not only do you have access to the ice-skating rink area but you can also hike locally and explore the surroundings. You were literally inside of a mountain range so if you like walking and exploring it is all there for you. Gorgeous area! It is $5 to enter the ice skating area and $10 to rent the skates. I feel that is reasonable getting an hour and a half worth of time and not feeling over powered by a crowd... I was definitely digging it. I have not been ice-skating for at least 10 years. The last time was at Chelsea Piers in New York City which was a totally different vibe. I enjoyed myself I can see returning throughout the winter. Everyone we dealt with from when we initially entered the park to helping us with the purchase of tickets and assisting with the rentals were pleasant. I'm guessing local college students. There were several employees on the ice as well and I saw them helping out when kids and adults were falling. They weren't extra but they weren't unpleasant so happy to have them there to help us. Glad I tried out this place and looking forward to future memories here.

Parking is kinda annoying but there are always spots. The real issue comes to making the trek back to your vehicle bc you legit have to climb a small mountain of stairs to get back. Watch out for ice too in winter. The rink itself isn't overly cold and I end up being comfortable in just a sweatshirt, sans jacket. Popcorn and drinks and other food available are decent prices, nothing over the top. No alc tho so um.. better figure that one out for yourself.. Security to get into West Point is great, and fairly quick, and hey, it makes you feel safer so I'm cool with that. After the games the gang and I like to go grab a drink at the Thayer after.

Since most of my son's team was not able to play this game, I had to put a ragtime of players together for this game. Despite losing it was an amazing experience for all the kids. The locker rooms were beautiful, and the experience of playing at this arena was just as sweet. We also saw the Army Hockey boarding the bus for one of their road games.

Everytime i go, they have great music playing and at night they even have the music videos on a projector playing on the wall, a nice touch. I always remember the song and video of bruno mars' song "just the way you are" playing and it was awesome. Everyone seems to go there to have a good time and thats it and thats what it feels like.

Skating is fun, food is good, other activities (bumper cars, arcade, laser tag) are fun as well. Have hosted and attended multiple B day parties for children which they loved. Make sure you take pictures and movies because you will love looking back at them.

Came here during public skating hours and had fun! Decent size skating rink and it wasn't too…read morecrowded. Skates are provided if you do not have your own pair. There is a small room before entering the rink with a few tables to sit down at and put your skates on. It becomes very crowded at the end of public skating hours as everyone is in the same area and there aren't many seats so it may be easier to exit the rink a few minutes before the public skating hours end. There are also a few open cubbies to store your belongings in. You need to make an account online in order to use the rink which can be done beforehand or in person with the QR code at the front desk. The ice rink also offers classes for children and adults.

Upon visiting a friend, I was looking around for ice rinks as a place to hang out. And I found…read morethis one to have a more reasonable price point at $15 per skating session which includes skate rentals. The skating session is a bit tricky, it can range from 1.5 hours to 2.5 hours but you would always know in advance upon online signup. The public skating session is available for registration online. As with any skating place, the skates that everyone uses are no good, always good to invest in a pair, more comfortable and won't ruin the experience. It's one hockey size rink with no lockers. They have cubbies to put your shoes and might fit a really small bag. They have vending machines at reasonable prices. Parking lot has a lot of spaces but apparently it does fill up quick. The place is very very very very old, but that didn't matter to me because the rink is good and the ice is not bad, works for the purpose.

Went there for a birthday party on 1.20.2024 and it was embarrassing. The entire place had no heat…read more Everyone had coats on, after 20 minutes I asked the gentleman at the front if the heat was on. He explains they lost heat last night and the room is trying to get to temperature. 2 hrs later it was still freezing. People had on coats, hats and gloves. Children were shivering with red noses. It was horrible and probably the same temperature as outside on a January NY winter day. It was a horrible experience. I kept my kids jackets on the entire time, if we were not at a birthday party I would have left. Pizza took forever, service was horrible, the kids working had no clue what was going on. After both my kids ate their pizza they both wanted another piece of pizza. I asked the staff for 2 more pieces of pizza for 2 children in the party and they explained the host only paid for one slice per kid. I then persisted to speak with the gentlemen in charge. He advised the same thing. From my perspective the children are freezing the entire party was uncomfortable. They could not give 2 more pieces of pizza! The place should have closed that day and rescheduled events. I will never be back there. The bathrooms are a whole other story - completely unsanitary. This building needs a full renovation. Cannot imagine what their kitchen looks like if this is how they treat the front of house. If you want to go roller skating take the extra drive to Wood n Wheel across the river in Ulster park, in my opinion. Much cleaner and attentive staff.

Ice skating and hockey are one thing, which isn't an issue except for the conditions that follow:…read more It's not the cleanest place to be, with most dirt to be found on the walls and also the lockers including the inside of it. The hallway isn't that big and wide enough for people to pass, especially while having skates on, not to mention the bleachers. Even waiting to get in and out with a big crowd can be no fun, something that needs to be improved on. Despite the conditions, it can be a fun place to come to, but bear them in mind. 1.4/5

Dirty shit hole from the locker rooms to the bathrooms..... Extremely small locker rooms too…read more Terrible ice conditions. Poor lighting on the ice surface. Unpleasant staff who hate their customers. You are required to be buzzed into the facility, since it is downtown Poughkeepsie and they want to keep the vagrants (other than hockey players) out. Yet over half the time no one is in the office to buzz you in.
