Center Ice of DuPage

It’s an ice rink that caters to hockey leagues. I took my daughter here to ice skate for the first time, she loved it! Since it is during the week it was not crowded at all. This made our continuous falls not seen by many. The woman who gave me my skates and took my skating fees was very sweet. Vending area for snacks as the refreshment area was closed. Their prices are apparently comparable to other rinks nearby, as I had priced around. $ 5 for children, $ 7 for adults, and $ 2.50 skate rental.

Two sheets of ice. So So as far as skating or so Im told. When I used to skate here the ice was mediocre at best. Not great but not bad. Locker rooms a bit cramped. For the spectators in the stands, the heaters are generally not on or they dont work. Snack bar avg. Pro shop seems to be closed most of the time. Today It was open and now appears to be an apparel store catering mostly to things Admirals. Didnt see any equipment or sticks.
Cant say Im overly enthused here, the real downer is the parking which is always atrocious here. Designers never gave any thought to a drop off/​pick up area. Spaces are small even for compact vehicles. Lane width in parking lot and street area is congested and hard to navigate. Wonder how many accidents are had here. This might be along w/​Bolingbrook the worst parking for any hockey rink in the area.(Aside from Oak Park, of course) And yes, I almost hit a pedestrian on the way out, backing out from my spot. Which reminds me of another thing. Parking lot lighting. There really isn’t any. 2 stars is all I can give & thats kind of a reach!

Good staff and coaching. Don’t expect cleanliness or building upkeep. While this is an older rink, the ice is nice but the rest of the facility leaves a lot to be desired.

Wish they would turn up the heat.

This is a great rink. My brother plays hockey so I mostly come for that. But they do have public skate which is really nice. There are 2 rinks so theres always something going on. Sometimes theres too many people. The cool thing is everybody knows everybody though. Theres also a small concession stand and if you sit in the right section in the stands you will get some heat from the warmers. Also the hockey team are called the Admirals and they are a great team. The hockey has different leverls for each age group. You learn a lot and all the teachers are really good. Theres also figure skaing but I dont know a lot about that. Just Hockey. This is a great place really. Ive been going here for a few years now so I know.

I used to take skating lessons here, and i loved it. The instructors were really nice, and the leveling up system made sense. There are also lots of optional competitions here, and there were groups for every level. I had to quit because i was to busy, but I’ll still come here to skate with my friends. There is cool music and lights for the free skate, its so much fun. They also have 2 ice rinks, which is awesome. It means that the ice skaters can practice at the same time as the hockey people. I love it here!

Ice hockey at the center ice of DuPage! This is one of the best places to get your skate sharpened! The olympic sized rinks also change the game dynamics up a little bit and can make for a more exciting game.
