Nice barn for a tourney…read more 2 sheets here, both with ample seating and great acoustics, so that you can yell to your hearts delight and get the attention of your favorite player. Concession stand was fairly priced. Parking was great, but we were here during the January 2024 snow storm, so challenging to keep lanes straight. A few issues: Locker rooms are downstairs and only accessible via stairwell. This was challenging for the boys to get through. There's an elevator labeled for those with accessibility needs only. The entrance has no automatic doors, so challenging to work through traffic there as well. Don't know if it was the weather or just the preference, but the rinks were unusually cold. Many parents opted to stand in the back. (That was probably also for social reasons) Lastly, the lobby could use more seating. I did like the seats by the glass, which gave a nice view of the ice.

I'm at Southside Ice Arena right now. It's 7am on a Sunday and we are in the middle of a squirt…read moretournament. All tournament games prior to this semi final game were at a different rink in the city. This place is FILTHY!!!! The doors were locked and 4 teams of children had to wait at the locked doors for close to a half an hour. So did their parents. We walked in and there is garbage under tables and chairs in the lobby, the rugged areas have popcorn and garbage all over them. The stands have, you guessed it, garbage everywhere.One of the sheets of ice has no paint! And there is a squirt team scheduled to play on it right now. The locker rooms are filthy and full of garbage. The other sheet of ice is tore up- it needs to be zambonied twice. And the concession stand is dark with the cage pulled down. Mind you, there are 4 teams of parents and it is 7am- where's the coffee?! The last time we were here, the rink we were scheduled to play on broke the night before and there was a thick layer of water on the ice. The rink put our kids on to play, hours after they knew it was broke. It was dangerous. The game was aborted but it never should have begun. I'd like to give zero stars! This is easily the worst run rink in the city limits.

I recently started the Couch to 5K program and wanted to find a track to run and walk on. I did…read moresome searching online and read that Briggs Park has a track. Since it's a public park I knew it would be open, so my boyfriend and I hopped in the car and drove over. There were a few people doing some football drills on the field and some kids playing with bubbles. There's plenty of street parking nearby. There are restroom facilities but I didn't check to see if they were open. I left my sweatshirt and water bottle on the bleachers and felt comfortable doing that since there weren't many people around. The track was nicely maintained with only two small areas that needed to be patched. This park also has a playground and a pool! I've never been to the pool but would like to check it out someday - I've always wanted to go down the water slide.

They will randomly change their schedule and not notify members so you're not actually able to use the facility when you want to use it. We are here right now and there is no pool we can use as paying members and the irony is it's called the aquatic center.

Updating my review because I was deeply disappointed in a place which has been my "Swim home…read morew/family" for Generations They have DESTROYED my Holland Community Pool! For Decades I've been coming to do laps here periodically throughout the years, it was easy to pay, to swim, then have a locker room to prepare for your work day afterwards. NOT ANYMORE! You arrive and they send you to a Universal Locker room with no heads up! Not cool early in the morning before my coffee which is how I have swam here since FOREVER, Also I wasn't the only one overwhelmed, there was an 80 year old Grandmother Not aware she is in a Universal Locker Room, also she wasn't aware that the glass she was changing in front of can be viewed from outside. She also had a hearing problem and the front staff just pushed her along without any explanation like they did me! All I needed was a Pool and a Woman's locker Room like I was getting my whole life coming to this location! It's made for the masses! Not for us Hollanders who like things simple and functional. The new layout has taken my small town pool and turned it to "Disney world" next they might add a monorail My suggestion have a pool and locker room just for us who want to pay, use and shower in private in a Woman's Only locker room like when we were younger here in Our Home Town!

I think everything they offer at this place is just amazing, good for kids, teens, and adults. But…read moremy god if you cannot find staff who aren't some of the rudest people i've met in my life, then don't hire at all. The adult staff at other areas of the park are amazing, not all are bad apples, but please fix the behavior of the younger staff at the main pool. I was here with my family and when we arrived to the pool, i mean everyone is super excited to go swimming, and then this staff, little big bigger of a girl, is just on our asses about EVERYTHING. Cant do this, cannot bring that, literally nothing. I understand rules and regulations, but you don't have to be condescending about it like you're in some power hungry struggle. She even came at my daughter when she had a sealed container of food that when she walked into the park, the two boy staffs didn't say anything, but of course when my girl sits down trying to just enjoy the day, mind you not even touching the container its under the chair, this lady is walking around, stops at us, literally SCANS everything we have with her eyes, kicks my kid out because she had a container of food she wasn't even touching. Like I said, i understand rules but you don't have to be an ASS when conveying those rules. As an owner of a business, do some more team training for these younger workers because that was ridiculous. I could write a whole segment about the girls working the concessions but i honestly just do not have the energy too, moral of story, fix this behavior.

I get to the pool today with my water bottle and my towel bag.. "oh excuse me.. we have regulations (NEW from last time we were here) and you have to have clear water bottles and bags.. snacks you know..". I was PISSED!!!! So now I can't have my Stanley nor my bag.... There's a line to be drawn when it comes to things. It's not like we're at a concert where someone could be harboring a gun... this is the splash pad... I'd like to have a little more freedom for the price we pay for the yuppiness. And ya know... maybe CHEAPER golf carts.. you KNOW you need one to do anything in this place. $70 a DAY!! $15 for than last time also. ALLLLLLL ABOUT THE BENJAMINS
