I've been…read moreto many ice skating rinks around the Northeast, and found this place a pitiful excuse for a rink. I got on the ice just 2 minutes after the zamboni was finished cleaning the ice, and it was already so chopped up and hard - it was clear the zamboni didn't do a good job and that the ice wasn't well-maintained. In addition, the place looked like a bunch of wood beams nailed together - I'm surprised this place has survived the NH winters. Yes, it was cheap with $5 / admission and $5 / rentals but I don't think I'll go again. I'll wait for the new rink to open in Keene before going to skate in NH again.

I asked one of the cashiers when purchasing an Icee and she confirmed there was one and pointed to the area. At that time, I recalled seeing a group on the floor but I thought it was from them falling while skating. I've must've caught the very end of it. She stated the police were called and they left before their arrival. The next thing was while waiting to go back on the floor and watching the experienced skaters skate, a female very upset began swearing at another unknown group saying "she got me f**ked up". Another patron also watching stated "Friday night". Yes, it was a Friday night! With that said I would definitely return but during the morning and/or afternoon sessions.

The rink is shared ice during these times, meaning multiple groups at different levels being instructed on adjacent but separate sections of the rink. What might be most impressive is they actually Zamboni the ice before and after every 40 min session, which makes the ice perfect for a group of new skaters that likely need semi-decent ice at best, but hey, no complaint!

PLEASE READ REVIEWS! If your children do not know how to…read moreskate, this is not the place for them! Management referenced a 30-second interaction, during that time I was clearly managing an agitated baby and verbally stated multiple times that I had already being spoken to rudely. Not addressing the same rule more than ONCE mind you. That should have prompted staff to stop and assess the situation instead of continuing to escalate it. I refuse to not support my child ( 5, 4 and 20 month old) while they are skating for the first time, nor will I allow my children to sit and cry in public without support. When I picked up my 20 month old during an intense emotional episode, I was not skating. I had just exited the rink and was returning to the bench. I clearly stated this and indicated I had literally picked her up 6 seconds, barley getting her to my chest before he barreled around the corner to approached, make several abrupt remarks, and left without any attempt at respectful or professional/personable communication. This place has been garbage for over 7 years!!! I would not recommend this establishment in Hadley Massachusetts. We are a family of five (two adults, two children ages 2-5, and a 1.5-year-old). We rented two pairs of skates at a cost exceeding $70. During our visit, staff repeatedly confronted us in a manner that felt unnecessarily confrontational and lacked professionalism. I was first approached for holding my 1.5-year-old while skating, which I understand may be against policy; however, this was my first time skating with young children, and the interaction was handled poorly. On another occasion, my fiancé attempted to cross the center line briefly to assist me while I was managing both a toddler and a young child. There were no skaters nearby at the time, yet he was again confronted by the same employee. In the carpeted area, I picked up my crying child, and within seconds was approached and instructed to put her down because I was wearing skates. The delivery of these instructions was abrupt and lacked any empathy or discretion. Additionally, the skates provided for my child were visibly worn and in poor condition. The Velcro no longer functioned properly, a concern that was verbally acknowledged by a staff member while adjusting them. Despite advertising as a family-friendly venue, our experience did not reflect that claim. This facility may be more suitable for experienced skaters rather than families with young children. We were offered free lessons for the kids and still, we denied them for lack of empathy and confrontational approach. Owner tries to argue every negative review. Your place is old, your skates are unsafe and your staff is unbearably disrespectful to parents, and according to reviews, your summer camp kids hate it too. Response from the owner or manager Hello Kristie, thank you for taking time to write a review. Although a direct conversation, while you were in the facility, would be more productive and helpful, we always appreciate feedback. It is unfortunate that you found simple instruction, on serious safety concern, "abrupt." The risk of falling or dropping a child from four or five feet in the air, while you are on skates, is never taken lightly. The fact you had to be reminded multiple times demonstrates your lack of understanding. I encountered you only once directly, for all of 30 seconds, and you were flippant and arogant, arguing about holding your child while you were on skates. Safety should never be taken lightly. The rest of your commentary is inflamatory and unwaranted. And yes, $70 for five admissions and two rentals is accurate. I challenge you to find a better value for an afternoon with the family. Our offer of free skating lessons was genuine and an attempt to give your family a chance to further enjoy skating. I'm not sure what your reference is to summer camp; We have none. If you wish to have an honest conversation about your experience, and find a path where I am still willing to help your children with free skating lessons, please feel free to reach out. I look forward to helping you create fun memories with your family. Thank you again for taking time to comment. The owner continues bashing any negative review without taking any accountability for their lack of perfessionalism.

Lighted basket ball court that they flood & turn into an outdoor ice skating rink in the winter complete with "warming" center with a snack bar, bathrooms, etc. Extremely basic playground, a few toddler swings, a few big kid swings, a slide, etc, but it is fenced in (there are openings in the fence though, & they're open, not gated), with a bubbler, a picnic table, & a big tree that provides a nice shady spot no matter what the time of the day is or where the sun is. It's kept up really well, they do a nice job keeping the grass & shrubs trimmed. Conveniently located less than 1 mile from all of the schools in Jaffrey & from Jaffrey's town center & main street. Parking on the street & across the street. The grade school uses the area on field days for the higher grades. Cons: No gates on the openings to the playground. Small, so if there are more than a few people there you're kind of "on top" of each other. I've seen it get super crowded on game days. It's Jaffrey, so if you are there at the same time as some "townies" & they're chatty you might get stuck having to make small-talk with people you'd rather not get stuck having to chat with. The parking on the street & across the street can get super crowded on game days & big trucks & XL SUV's frequently park on the street leaving their vehicles sticking out into the street... Overall: I think having the ice skating rink in the winter really "makes" this area. During warmer winters when the lakes don't freeze over for very long it is nice to have somewhere to go to ice skate.

I do appreciate that there's a middle area where ice skating beginners can practice and learn. They also had laser tag, but no one was interested. Pizza was the best they got for food and kept me full while my niece had fun. There was also a 1 lap race for different age groups and if you were an expert skater, they made you start further back.
