Pro shop should be open on a Saturday afternoon. No snack bar.
This place is really cool, I also fell on my butt lol.
Well taken care of ice rink. Not unlike other good skating rinks.
As far as I’ve rinks go, not bad… chilly, dress warm- no heaters. Glass is really scuffed up. Place needs some TLC
We drove 4 hours for our daughter to skate with the Meijer AAA Tier 1 Girls Ice hockey team. Nice building. Clean inside and out. Got reports from my daughter that the ice was really good as well. Not bad for the middle of July in the heat and humidity. The staff were excellent and the two young men at Peranis were really cool to talk with. Looking forward to making more trips here in the future!
A good barn for youth/adult hockey. The rink staff and Lansing hockey club are very easy to work with and helpful. Friendly environment for my daughter. People complaining about the rink not having modern upgrades are just spoiled. I grew up playing at Yost, A2 Ice Cube and Veterans Arena in Ann Arbor, theres nothing wrong with this rink compared to those and honestly the ice here is better than all three.
Wonderful place full of talent and people who are passionate about teaching skating! Especially Erin Banner - shes the absolute best!
Clean, fresh atmosphere(compared to some other less favorable rinks)... also have a pro-shop that has good variety of gear AND working skate sharpening equip...
The refferees hear are cheaters (I am a goalie for Plymouth Compuware peewee 2021 ) the refs dont fix the nets if its off its stubs some offsides they dont call when they should have . Besides the refs . The rink is pretty nice they have a peranis hockey store there and also a peranis vending machine that has pucks , tape,laces,neck guards.
Everyone was super nice, and it was a good environment, ice skating just wasnt for me.
I brought my daughters here and it was fun but crowded and the ice got chipped up fast which made skating a challenge. We went during a weekend open skate. I would not recommend it for first timers.
My family and I love to ice skate and this is by far my favorite rink. Its family friendly and the price to skate is very reasonable. I wish they would hold open skate more often but thats my only complaint.
The rink had heat!! The stands are terrible. Awful view of the ice. Only was in one of the rinks. Netting was terrible. Old and tattered. So terrible on the goals that refs called a goal when the puck was under the plastic covering to the metal goal bars looking like it was in the net. From behind the net?? Come on refs! They waved it off after the kids showed them.
Seating in the arena we were in was horrible. Ive honestly never seen bleachers that small. Most of the game was difficult to see because of the railings. Floors were nice and clean and the store was nice but I honestly hope we never have to play there again.
Facilities need work, ceiling tiles, paint and functioning showers. Many individuals have repeatedly informed the rink manager, that a particular locker room #6, has one properly functioning shower. Were told a plumber has been called but after this past weekend, I can sadly report, that said showers still dont operate. Paid good money to play hockey at this rink, but it is time to find a rink that can provide what they sell, good CLEAN fun. Hard to get clean with showers that dont work!!!
Great facilities, friendly staff and amazing prices! They are cheaper than the Summit, you get longer ice time and the locker rooms arent frozen solid. Plus goalies show up at Suburban Ice whereas they never seem to make an appearance at the Summit.
Seems like a fun place but was only there like 10 minutes so didnt really experience much of the hype. Definitely looked like a fun time though
My kids have been through many skating and hockey classes, I play adult league and a lot of pick-up and my son plays youth hockey so we spend a lot of time here (and at other rinks around the state to compare). Good, no-thrills facility, clean and modern - gets the job done as it should. Most importantly,however, great staff.Elevation (advanced training) and Peranis (pro shop) are great on their own but combined with Suburban, a nice asset to local hockey community.
Suburban Ices staff are always friendly and willing to help. They do a great job hosting hockey tournaments and figure skating events. True professionals who run their business well.
Nice facility. Having a Peranis on site is always a huge plus. The Peranis vending machine is a bonus also for out of business hours emergencies
Love! 4 of our kiddos are taking learn to skate classes there! Way better than the one in Dimondale! The staff is wonderful, prices reasonable, beautiful facility...you cant go wrong!
I played at this rink for the past two years in their mens league and its trash. I highly recommend you do not play at this rink if you enjoy a fair environment with semi-even teams. This year, our season started out fine with us winning games as well as losing games until the rink decided that they would allow players from higher divisions to also play in the lower division, AND pay less! We didnt win a single game past that. The league claims they will balance the teams. but thats an outright lie. No rosters have been touched for the past multiple years from conversations with people who have played for YEARS! Tonight was the cherry on top however, when they decided to move our ONE playoff game without mentioning it to anyone. Poorly organized, poorly officiated, I would strongly recommend you take your money elsewhere.
If I could give zero stars, I would. I played two seasons of adult league hockey here from 2014-15, and the director of the league is terrible. Nate claimed to be available by phone or email, but would not actually answer the phone or respond to emails. Our first team during the 2014-15 fall season was put together by Suburban, and Nate neglected to get us a goalie for the first 6 weeks. Good thing the Zamboni drivers can suit up and play for us though! When our team eventually found our own goalie, Nate made sure to take credit for finding us one, the one and only time he communicated with us. The scorekeeping was similarly poor quality, where run time apparently means you wait for the refs to finish eating their food with the clock still running. Expect to lose 3-4 minutes a game due to this.If youre interested in playing adult hockey in the Lansing area, do yourself a favor and play over at the Summit. They have a hockey director who actually responds to questions and concerns, and score keepers who pay attention. I wouldnt waste my money on another league here until they replace the director with someone who can competently run an adult league.
Would not let kids use chairs to learn how to skate. Wallet stolen out of the locker room. Rude staff. Manager was little help. Go to the summet in Dimondale or MSU
Nice place friendly staff and parents
This place is fun! I guve it five stars, but fir whatever reason ny phone isnt letting ne click 5 and only allows 4, so, sorry about this; i really like this place abd its 5 stars!!!
I took 6 kids to skate at suburban ice rink.It was fabulous they had so much to do with 2 rinks and activists to do to like arcade games.They had 2 rinks so it wasnt crowded.They had skate lessons. Everyone was so helpful.Im definitely going back again!
I enjoy playing hockey at Suburban. Nate does a great job with the leagues and the skills and development. Locker rooms, particularly showers could be improved.
Not a bad rink, Peranis employees were a little slow. Been 12 years since Ive been there.
I am just beginning to ice skate again. Taking lessons. The staff have been encouraging and the public skates allow plenty of space. Suburban Ice is a great place to get back into skating.
I take group lessons here. It’s super fun. Great deal - you also get some free open skating during your session.
I take ice skating lessons there and so does my three year old brother. Within the first two lessons my brother could skate. They have amazing staff and can really help your ability to ice skate.
Awesome ice skating lessons. I took my 3.5 yr old girl and they got her skating. Pleasant fun atmosphere, awesome staff and good kids rentals.
Heres an idea...how about upgrading your sound system so fans can actually hear the announcer and the music during hockey games. This place has by far the worst sound system of any rink Ive ever watched a hockey game at.
Brought my kids to the public skate, and they had a great time. There is a heater above the seating on the side, so I didnt get too chilly!!
Nice rink
There are 2 ice rink..this ice condition is good.. I would like to recommend this place. My daughter always come here to skate..
Love taking my girls for public skate on Sunday afternoons. Just wish they had public skate more often and for longer periods of time.
The rink hosted U18 Nationals. Has two decent sheets of ice. Small snack bar and hockey shop. Average/Nice rink.
Great people, the new lobby looks great the ice is good, could use some work around the boards and at the Zamboni doors.
Nice rink. Parking is good. Open the concessions though!
Its a nice Ive rink they have peranis hockey store in the rink. Very happy to have gone to the rink
I love ice skating and so does my daughter. Lots of fun every time we go.
I love this place! The gentleman that helped with our skates Was very knowledgeable and helpful! Awesome place.
Great place...inexpensive....and not crowded at all on a Saturday afternoon, about 10 people total. Definitely going back!
Very nice facility, concession stand, small number of equipment items available (laces, tape...) Gymnastics and floor games areas as well.
Nice place. Good seating in rink or thru glass. Nice menu at snack bar.
Worst swimming pool I’ve ever been to. It was way too cold and there were no lifeguards.
Good spacious skating rink in Lansing, two rinks and a gym
Well lit ice arena with 2 sheets of ice!!

2022-07-14Ive been playing mens leagues here for years. The facility is clean and the ice is good. The league management does a good job of organizing and controlling the arena. My only issue would be the one tiny locker room I always end up in.

Review №5
2022-02-26Showed up at 3:27 pm for open skate and they sold out…open skate starts at 3:30. Our daughter was very upset and so we’re a lot of other families. If you want to go skate here I suggest showing up hours before to form a line. The staff was very rude and when we asked if we could wait for others to leave so we could buy tickets they treated us like we were being crazy.

Review №8
2018-02-28Went here today for a 90-minute mid-day skate. Had an absolutely terrific time. The facility has two full-size sheets and GREAT ice - smooth and hard. The other areas are open, clean, and inviting. So many ice rinks are dumps; it was a real treat to be able to skate at such a first-rate facility.

2021-12-20If we could give Suburban Ice East Lansing 10 stars, we would! Not only are their classes affordable, they offer multiple, 100% FREE opportunities for local children to experience the many joys and challenges of ice skating and hockey. It was during the October 2021 free girls hockey trial weekend that we were first introduced to Suburban Ice and it truly was love at first skate! Our four-year-old daughter fell in love with skating and the amazing instructors at Suburban Ice that day; seven weeks later she has been promoted from SAM 1 to SAM 2 and looks forward to every class all week long. Our daughter went from never stepping foot on ice, to being scared to leave the wall and falling on her bum, to gliding and hitting around a hockey puck in just SEVEN WEEKS! If you or your child is even considering giving ice skating or hockey a try - DO IT! Suburban Ice is for children, women, and men of all ages! My only regret is that we are an active duty military family who will one day have to say farewell to Suburban Ice; however, we will never forget the unique love this institution has instilled in our young childs heart. ♥️

2021-02-08Nice ice rink. We have taken our kids here a few times for birthday parties and girl scout trips. They are typically very accommodating and friendly. They have different types of skaters and also they have different implements for the kids that are not the best of skaters and/or are new to ice skating.They have a couple different areas for people to skate as well so they can accommodate multiple sessions at once. They do different leagues and schedule time for practicing as well.
