Has no suitable changing area for female hockey players attending coed events/rentals. Earlier…read moretoday I attended a private drop in with a group of mostly men and a few other women. The other women in the group don't mind changing with the men but I prefer not to, so I requested a separate room (women's changing room, referee room, etc). The woman at the counter, who was less than pleasant, said she "couldn't let" me use a ref room or any other locker room in any of their FOUR rinks. She offered me a place to change with no skate mats, in the furthest rink (1) from the one we were playing on (4). This is totally unacceptable in 2025! I play in many different arenas around Detroit and Toledo, several in much less affluent cities than Troy, and they all provide me with some place to change that can accommodate my skates and is not a public restroom.

The Troy Sports Center is a large facility with 4 sheets of ice, a dance studio and a sports rehab…read moreplace upstairs. There are many reasons to like this facility, namely the large locker rooms, quality ice surfaces, and the pro-shop located in the lobby. The pro-shop is a separate business, but they have all of your equipment needs and can do a good job on your skate sharpening and repairs. There is a snack shop and plenty of vending machines, but there is no bar or alcohol sales. This rink has the full compliment of learn-to-skate, open-skate, youth hockey at all levels and mens' league. I didn't rate this 5 stars because the building is outdated and is missing a few of the modern touches of a true multi-plex. It's still a great place to play, practice or watch hockey.

This is a review regarding our experience having a children's party. Overall, I would say I am…read morehappy with what we received for the cost - compared to other places to have a kids party. If you're not wanting to spend top dollar for your kids party, then this would be a good option. The kids had a blast, the staff was polite & overall we were pleased with the day. However, here are a few warnings... They are clearly understaffed. You, as the host, will be facilitating all aspects of your party. Do not expect any customer service beyond the bare minimum. They said they would call 3 days before the party to confirm head count & menu, they never called. I called all day 2 days prior, finally made one last call before heading there in person & they finally answered. During the party, I had to basically take care of everything. Never once did anyone come and ask if we needed anything. I had to walk away from our party, find an available staff member (which usually ment waiting in a line) & ask for them for every single thing. To bring pitchers of drinks (if refills were needed I had to go to the bar & get them refilled myself), the food was late coming out so I had to go find a person to bring out the food (it had clearly been sitting in the back, it was barely warm), etc. Do not expect to be sitting and enjoying your kids during their party or socializing with guests very much, you will be making sure everything is being handled & walking around looking for staff or waiting in line. I will say, all of my interactions with staff were polite and positive. They are handling the chaos of the place very well. At the end of the day, it was nice to not have to clean up or have a party at our home, but I don't feel I was able to really enjoy my guests or experience the party with my kids because I was running around making sure everything was being taken care of. My advice to the bowling alley would be to assign a host/staff member specifically to facilitate all the parties to make sure everything is running smoothly. Actually check on your guests who are spending hundreds of dollars in your business. A little customer service could go a long way.

Here is the problem with Northland Roller Rink! It's the new owners they are nothing like the Heman…read morebrothers that used to owned the rink who cared about the upkeep of the floors and the bathrooms, the new owners only care about the money! not the ladies bathroom, not the condition of the rink floor (that could use a good sanding) I bet they have not done anything to it since they took over the rink. Limited food (not good), no upkeep mostly. Bad attitude (management) unprofessional, and don't care. I bet if "we" stop going maybe he will get IT? Clean the restrooms, clean up around there. Serve better food and options for families considering you want to charge much more since you took over! bottom line the old owners cared about us because they were us! that's what happens when they just come and buy up businesses but care less on how it should be operated in a matter that shows you care and appreciate your patrons that put up with some of the things we really shouldn't----And yes the Waterford roller Rink reopened and it is so clean---I suggest all that can make it out there to check it out! Repectful management, seem like they really care!!!! Wake UP Northland Owners!!!

I first skated the arena in the early '70's. If memory serves, the west rink was outside. Windy…read moredays sucked. Now both sheets are indoors with wonderful resources to tend to their upkeep. They have a quaint little pro shop which has the basic necessities to potentially save the day. A bit pricey but, then again, you wouldn't do your equipment shopping here unless you were in a pinch. I know of a few instances where kids have needed an emergency skate sharpening. Critically important at the speed and level they play at. A basic little snack bar is available when you enter and restrooms just in case. Plenty of metal bleacher seating in both arenas and picnic tables in the lobby in case you get too cold. If your new to this world of ice sport spectating, bring a blanket and seat cushion. At least for the first visit. They have a fully functioning ice resurfacing machine and a small ever changing staff to maintain the building. Skate rental is available. Open skate and pickup hockey is offered. Check online for more details. 1/20

Here is an article from the last Olympic cycle that discusses his relationship with International competitors: http://www.clickondetroit.com/news/skaters-secret-to-success He has been sharpening, mounting, fixing and readjusting my daughter's skates for over ten years and we wouldn't still be skating without his tips and adjustments. He is located within the Detroit Skating Club usually but check his website as he travels to other local rinks twice a month. If you are having an equipment emergency, call him. He does hockey as well obviously.

I can't say enough good things about Fred's Skate Sharpening. Rich is wonderful and highly skilled…read more My daughter's skating progress had flattened out until we found Rich. He was able to adjust her blades in a way that totally changed her speed and power. He is also willing to accommodate emergencies. We were sidelined in a blizzard in Minnesota last week and missed my daughter's skate Sharpening. He answered my message on New Years Day, and came to the shop 2-1/2 hours early this morning to sharpen her skates in time for a competition camp. While I'm sure he accommodates skaters at a much higher level than my daughter, I know that he's made all the difference in the world for us. We appreciate him tremendously.

This is such a great little, picturesque park located to the right of the Clarkston Village…read moreoffices. It's a smaller space that's very well-designed with undulating grounds, sufficient open spaces, 2 little bridges that go over a small river (creek?) with ducks, a gazebo, and lots of trees. There are no grills or anything, but lots of perfectly placed sitting benches (even a few swinging ones) and a decent amount of picnic benches. It's a great place to walk the pups, the love interest in your life, or have a blanket or bench picnic with the family. I believe the gazebo side has hosted outdoor weddings and I have seen pro photographers snapping pics of their subjects (just to give you an idea of the looks of it). The kids playground has enough activity sets that are nicely spread out for tiny kids and big kids. My 3 y/o son loves coming here. I think it's his favorite spot thus far. He loves seeing the ducks who are super tame and will come right up to you on the banks expecting to be fed. Unfortunately, feeding birds like this makes them dependent on handouts and I didn't see any signs forbidding it so far. Maybe the ducks are on the Village dole on the off-season, who knows? Bread is really not the best to feed them with (little nutritional value), so consider taking things like cracked, corn, fresh peas, or grape HALVES (per the internet...so you may want to double check that info). If you decide to visit the park, also take the opportunity to walk the Village's small main street or walk off a date meal at one of the local hot spots (Union Woodshop and Clarkston Union). The walkable residential street of Holcomb (off Washington) has some nice old houses to look at or drive by. When you turn onto Depot Rd (keep your eyes peeled, you just might miss it), the parking lot is on the left across from the offices. They have doggie poo bag stations and (the one minus) porta-potties for bathrooms. Top Yelp-rated Cook's Dairy (ice cream) in Ortonville can be integrated into a trip to Clarkston Village. It's only 10 minutes away going up M-15.
