If you bring your own skates, make sure they're not road-used; they're trying to protect their nice floor. Though I really love it here, be aware that they have heat but no A/C. Plan accordingly for the weather and dress lightly on warm days. Although I still miss the convenience of having a skating rink right there in Rockville on Gude Drive from years ago... Honestly, Starland is better in so many ways. Music is varied and they mix some classics in with newer, even on kids nights. The staff are always so nice and gave us great advice and service for my husband's skates, giving them their first ever wheel change in 25 years. (And believe me, he quad skates a lot!)

Friendly staff, plenty of parking, convenient location and an inexpensive night out. Get ready to do the limbo, and listen to some of your favorite tunes. Great for the whole family or for just the kids to have a fun place to spend their weekend nights. My parents met in a roller rink, I have roller skated my entire life and we are blessed to still have roller skating venues like this to carry on the tradition.

Staff is extremely rude and condescending. Guy at the skate concession was rude when we asked for…read moreskates, we used the wrong term when referring to the type of skate and he was extremely condescending about it. Staring at us like he didn't know what we meant and then rudely correcting us in a condescending tone. then while skating we were approached by a worker and told to get closer to the middle or get off the rink because we were skating "too slow" for the outside, when we were skating at a normal pace. We told him we just wanted to be closer to the outside and felt more comfortable, and he just said "well sorry" and skated away. There are multiple skating rinks in this area that have never showed that kind of behavior and allowed anyone of any ability to skate. This is not one of them. They punish the "slower" (normal speed) skaters disguising it as "not wanting you to get hit" instead of the people zipping around and tripping people. Saying all this without even mentioning the fact that while skating I was approached by a man who I'm pretty sure either works there or is a regular, and he attempted to flirt with me. Very awkward and strange. I don't recommend this place.

***Our BLACK FAMILY was HARRASSED and RACIALLY PROFILED ***…read moreSarah was aggressive, dismissive, and unwilling to listen when we explained that the young man was not a minor, as she claimed. Despite his attempt to present valid identification proving he was 21 years old, Sarah refused to believe it, mocked the situation using air quotes about his "real age," and continued to escalate the issue. Once it became clear she could not justify her claim about his age, she abruptly shifted her reasoning, stating that he was not "chaperoning a child" and had to leave. The young man, like the rest of us, was a paying customer. He had purchased both entry and skate rental. There was absolutely no justification for the treatment he received--other than the fact that he is a young Black man. What made this even more painful was the clear contrast in how our white friend, who also had no skates and remained seated at our table, was completely ignored and never harassed by staff. The racial bias and discrimination from Sarah, the security guard, and other staff members were blatant. The overall environment was hostile, disrespectful, and unsafe. We ultimately made the decision to leave as a group, feeling dehumanized and unwelcome. To add further insult, the young man who had paid for entry and skate rentals was treated as if he were not a legitimate customer. The staff, including the girl at the skate rental window, were disrespectful when attempting to return our shoes, even citing minor issues like not "tucking" the laces into the skates. We were only at the facility for about an hour in total, but it was enough time to experience clear racial profiling, harassment, and unprofessional behavior by the staff. This is not the kind of experience any paying customer should ever endure.

So.... what an adventure to drop in here way far away near the Walkersville area of Frederick. The rink itself looks like it could be from any era in the last 50 years, but really, what do you want from an ice skating rink? Parking is easy. Finding the location is easy. Going to the register and paying for your pass and rental (if you don't have your own skates) is easy. The cost is incredibly low - I feel like they were cheaper than when I was in high school back in the day in a land far far away from this place. Anyhow, getting your skates, also incredible easy. They have lockers for your stuff that cost you, wait for it, 2 quarters! So cute! They have a few vending machines, mostly ice cream, and a snack bar where you can get some cheap food and beverages. It is not expensive by any measure. They have teams and others who train and play here, but they have open skates. The open skates are usually on the weekends. And, again, wow, I could not believe how cheap. We had a great time skating, but since we're not 12 year old children, our bodies were a little less flexible and a lot more sensitive, so we didn't even last the whole 1.5 hour session. Ha ha! We still had a fabulous time, and will probably go back winter holidays 2024 for a new tradition. In other words - highly recommended for a cheap, short adventure!

For those of us who love skating and live in Martinsburg and surrounding areas, Galaxy Skateland is…read morea true blessing. Traveling far just to roller skate isn't my thing so I'm highly grateful Galaxy Skateland is here!!! And yes, I do recommend it!!! I absolutely love the folks who run Galaxy Skateland! Two thumbs up for their friendliness! They put on a lot of work to keep the place nice and to provide great fun and safe experience to their customers! Highly reasonable prices! Love their food and the fact that they call us via intercom when our pizza or nachos are ready! Their concession customer service is better than all rinks I've been to and I've been to many! Here are some things I personally feel deserve attention: I'd love to see better floor supervision and an adult "in the DJ booth" at all times during sessions! Galaxy Skateland is the first skating rink I attend that leaves its floor unsupervised. Obvious liabilities and risks aside, I trust this alone discourages and drives away both potential and established patrons. I often see skilled teen skaters cutting off other skaters. This type of behavior wouldn't fly in other rinks! Injury risks in skating are true without the presence of reckless show off's! Other "firsts" here involve teens playing basketball during skating sessions, teens jumping (while wearing skates) to pull basketball nets and unsupervised small children running in the midst of skaters! These things reflect true serious risks and liabilities and serious recklessness + poor management here. I've heard folks say "It's what teens and children do!" To me, this type of attitude and low expectations are the true root of behavior issues among our youth. If we expect less than proper behavior, disrespect, no consideration, & no skating etiquette from our youth, we forfeit our right to complain when they act upon such sad low expectations! Immature and reckless behavior truly spoils any skating experience. This is something all skating rinks must seriously consider and manage accordingly! FLOOR LIGHTING: Some evening sessions go on from start to end in "permanent darkness here". I can understand alternating dimming lights or keeping it dark throughout some sessions. But during family nights and Saturday afternoons?? I don't see dark rink floors as ideal skating environments for any age or skating level. Personal opinion aside, fact is customers are the life of a business and managers are the heart pumping oxygen into the customer experience! To me, being able to see the floor and other people while skating is not only a must but also a safety matter! Not everyone cares for the old "disco inferno" skating floors! Lighting means the difference between skaters enjoying a well lit floor or tensing up while getting dizzy in a dark stroboscopic skating session! In contrast, the blinding effects of super bright lights would be (in my opinion) just as bad! Balance is truly "the essence of skating"!!! MUSIC: let's get real: music is a HUGE part of all indoor skating experience! Music can make skating both a highly enjoyable or a highly dreadful experience. Rhythm and beat aside, this Biblical truth applies to song lyrics: Words mean the difference between life and death! Want to kill my mood in any place? Play appalling, sleazy songs! We attend what's advertised as "family nights" (Tuesday evenings). To say I wish for better music and lyrics here is gross understatement. It's bad enough that adults are subject to hearing low grade nonsense but no child should ever be subjected to degrading words from any source, especially songs played during "family skating nights"! To be fair to the nice folks running Galaxy Skateland, they welcome suggestions and they're open to song requests. I know it's difficult to cater to all music tastes. But this is why management plays vital role in balancing things out and drawing lines that ultimately define the business, its standards and the service quality therein! It's impossible to please everyone at all times! For this reason, good rinks seek to cater to different groups of people by offering various session formats and times! As a former fitness business owner, I know this is no small task. I also know that customer feedback, support, and understanding makes a huge difference for businesses and those running it! Let's not judge a business without considering how we can contribute to it! We've attended parties and other events here at Galaxy and recently had our own. It's always been great fun and nice overall experiences. Skating is a great form of fun aerobic exercise. It certainly beats staring at devices! Skating rinks can represent great positive influences on our youth. For this to be true, all adults involved (rink owners, managers, staff, parents, etc) must consider how our individual behaviors and choices influence the next generation of adults! They mostly reflect what they learn from us!

The place is pretty easy to find though it is unlikely you'd just happen to drive by it, as it is kind of not on the beaten path. You can purchase everything ahead of time in terms of skate rentals and entry. It's pretty reasonable for one session mid-afternoon until close in the evening, you just need one entrance ticket/fee paid. You get your money's worth for sure if you are there for hours! You can bring your own skates or rent skates here- they have regular roller skates and roller blades. Both of these are in whole sizes, no half sizes, and both of them would be best on your feet with high socks that go to your lower calves, at least. Tying them tightly gives you the best skating, but that also pinches into skin if you don't have the right socks. They have an area for parties that includes a few arcade games, but mostly, you're there to skate. There are people there who are serious skaters going wicked fast and throwing some cool tricks, but we never felt bad in any way for not being one of the super talented skaters. There's a snack bar, too, with your classic fare like burgers, hot dogs, nachos, fries and funnel cake fries. Yummy snack junk food that makes the experience all the more reminiscent of young carefree days! They have lockers for your stuff, some don't even lock, but no one seemed concerned. There are benches for sitting and changing out your shoes to skates and vice versa, and people tend to just stash their shoes under the benches rather than get a locker. A good time all around and pretty affordable if you're there for a while!
