I wouldn’t classify Mackay Ice Rink as an outdoor ice rink, but neither would I say that it is an indoor rink. The rink is located under a roof in the Mackay Park in Englewood, but at the same time, it is open air at the sides – the walls are not closed. This gives it more of an outdoor feel.

I decided to try the rink when I searched for an outdoor rink not too far from me and this was what came up. When I read up about the rink and the excellent holiday prices that were in effect during our December visit, I decided to check it out.

We weren’t disappointed.

The rink located within the Mackay Park is part of the park and run by the parks department. They offer lessons, public skating, Hockey Programs and rent the rink for private groups and events. They offer a party room for celebrations as well. The staff is extremely friendly and eager to help.

The rink does not offer walkers for the children but they do have construction cones for children to hold onto as they learn to maneuver themselves on the ice. There are some bleachers outside the rink where family and friends can sit and watch the skaters.
