KHS Ice Arena

I have been skating here for 2 years now. One plus is the stick time availability. Linda has always been great. The pricing has gone up which doesn’t stoke me out too much!

Stick time players… call ahead before going on weekends. Today they had ²⁄₃ of the rink lessons, and put 20 stick timers on the other ¹⁄₃ of the rink. Definitely not worth the drive or $ 20 to find out no room to skate.

This is my favorite low-​budge ice rink. My 4 year old recently became a HUGE fan of ice skating so I took to the inter-​webs to find the cheapest place to take him skating and that’s how I found KHS. $ 5 for a 1 hour public session, skate rental included, can’t beat that! My son only lasts 15 min. out there anyways. Now that $ 5 does come with 1 caveat, instead of those cute ride-​able ice seals that help kids skate, they offer orange home depot buckets, yeah … pretty ghetto. My 2 year old looked pretty hilarious being pushed around the ice in a dirty bucket but she loved it one the less! There are 2 rinks in the facility and it’s especially cold, colder than any other rink I’ve ever been to, so bring the snow gear. There were only maybe 5 or so other people on the ice during the public session last weekend so we got to take our time going around and no one hassled us for not following the flow — great for wild toddlers. Overall, this may not be the fanciest rink, and the bathrooms are pretty gross, but it’s a sure fire good time and easy on the wallet!

I freakin love this location, less people and the price is always right but the customer service when u purchase ur ticket is HORRIBLE… u ask her a question and she doesn’t respond back. No face expressions AT ALL

First time going to this rink. I like that they offer so many stick time sessions. The only thing that was an issue — being told they don’t have enough pucks… really? Also. Rink A had some pretty deep grooves that a few people were tripping on. Other than that, decent facility.

This review is mainly for hockey players that are looking for a facility with bunch of stick time options.
The staff here are very friendly. They love to help in any way possible. They have stick times almost all day going up till 5pm Monday through Friday’s. They have two rinks at this establishment. Locker rooms are pretty clean for the most part. The ice isn’t bad either. My biggest complaint is that their proshop is never open. And the edges of the ice touching the boards aren’t the best. Also this place is hit or miss with stick time. Some days you will be the only one out there. And other days there are high school and private lessons. On those days good luck finding a piece of ice.

Had a party there last night… One of the best experiences! We had so much fun! The staff was super nice! I highly recommend this place for your next adult or kids party! Thank you KHS

This is a no-​frills ice skating rink, which I like since i’m not that great at ice skating. On Sundays they have $ 5 public skating which includeds your skates, now that’s a deal! Make sure you check their website for times that the rink is running public skating, they seem to have them inbetween their ice hockey games that go on throughout the day.
Also, this rink never gets crowded like the other rinks so if youre not that great or want to practice your triple axle you have the room and wont have to worry about running itno anyone.
I’d give this place more stars but their customer service is terrible and they NEVER have quarters for the lockers and the facility is kind of old.

My family has a great experience ice skating… we purchased a Groupon and we had no problems with redeeming it. We used the Groupon during an open skate session for 1 hr. + 20 minutes… more than enough time to get sore feet.
Friendly staff and the ice was groomed just before the open skate session started.

The entrance was a little difficult to navigate to the first time since you kind of have to go around.
I usually come here for stick time. $ 15 a person. They have so many different times that it isn’t super packed. You’ll have the rink to yourself and a few other people. There was a coach using the other side of the rink but it wasn’t that noticeable.
Last time we went on Wednesday @ 4ish? had about 6 – 7 players and a goalie, enough to get a fun little scrimmage going.

Went for stick time @ 4pm, what a joke! $ 15 for 1hr, no fresh sheet of ice, we had like 15 adults + one guy brought out his 3yr old kid on the small rink forced to stay under the blue line because coaches were running clinics on the rest of the ice. Total waste of time & money.

UPDATE 6÷9÷2016 as an update to your reply over a year later. The issue isn’t so much the people that show up, its that you use ²⁄₃ of the rink for the private lessons and then the rest of the people are forced to play under the blue line. 15 people below the blue line? Thats a lot of people, apply a cutoff or open up at least half of the rink for people to use. A free stick time does me no good until you actually open up some rink space

This place is great for public skating, if you’re looking for a less tightly packed arena! I love coming here for the 1pm sessions. The place is sort of hidden and mildly creepy inside, but aren’t all small ice rinks? Way more affordable than Anaheim Ice, and the staff is so friendly! Definitely recommend coming here for general practice and fun.

Very cheap price! It was only $ 7 for weekdays. They had really great costumer service always willing to help. The ice was good! My group had tons of fun!

Only complaint is it is sooooo cold here. Parking is slightly limited but the times I’ve been there I was able to park in the adjacent lots. The bathrooms used to stink but they have now cleaned it up. Good staff and ice is also flat and smooth.

Came here to play broomball with an organization I am in with different universities and it was a great experience. The place was big enough for ALL of us. There was maybe like 100+ of us.
Something you must know… it’s not like normal ice rinks. This place is 5x colder than all the other places I’ve been too. I am usually able to handle cold but this was freezing. Just wished I was more prepared :)

One star but it should have zero. The owner has no idea what customer service is. I wouldn’t go back if you paid me! The owner has no concern with treating his paying customers like dirt. I was a customer of Glacial Gardens in my youth and the White family ran it right. If you are looking for an old run down rink with some of the worst customer service you can find this is your spot. Beware!!!

KHS Ice Arena is an amazing place to go ice skating, especially if you haven’t been in a few years and aren’t pro at it. Until this past weekend, I hadn’t been ice skating in about 4 years and my boyfriend hadn’t been in about 20 years. Needless to say, we were a little rusty.
There are a few Public Skate sessions on the weekends and we chose to do the evening session from 6:10 — 7:50. Random time, I know! It doesn’t seem like a long time to go skating, but trust me, it’s enough time. I’m pretty active and consider myself to be in pretty good shape, but I could last only about an hour and 15 minutes of the time (and that was with a handful of breaks interspersed in that time). During the time we were there, there was no more then 10 – 15 people on the ice at any given time, which is awesome! I love this and it made me feel ok that I wasn’t going really fast, but just taking my time and focusing on not falling on my butt.
Admission is $ 10 per person and that includes skates. I must say, that’s pretty cheap for an ice skating rink (I know the one in Aliso Viejo charges $ 17 a person). Staff is friendly, there are lockers to store your personal belongings, and the bathrooms were pretty clean! All good things in my book!
Overall, I really enjoyed my visit to KHS Ice Arena. I’d come back the next time I’m craving some ice skating and don’t want to pay an arm and a leg to go.
Cheers!

KHS is a great place to play broomball. My friends will schedule 90 minutes or 2 hours on a friday night roughly every. It ends up being around $ 20 a person for 25 people or so. The arena supplies the brooms and sometimes the balls. You can park on either side of the arena as there are two different entrances to the two different ice rinks. They have an atm and snackbar onsite. They also have a skate shop with figure and ice hockey skates. The main rink has bleachers and nets all around it to protect the fans during hockey games. Its a nice place to play.

Its in a sketch area that’s for sure, but once you get inside its not as scary. We went on a Saturday night for the public skating session from 8 – 9:10PM. $ 13 altogether ($ 10 + $ 3 for skate rental).
All in all I’d say there were about 30 or so people and only about half knew what they were doing, but they let the rest of us feebly attempt to try and skate so I’d say the date night was a success. :)
By the time our hour and 10 minutes was up, I was able to make it ¼ of the way without having to sit down or stop against the wall because of my ankles hurting. And we only fell once! PROGRESS. :D
One thing though, the fact that the public sessions all cost $ 10 (and $ 3 for skate rental) but have different lengths of time (ex. 8 – 9:10 vs 1:50 — 3:40) seems a little unfair. If you have a whole hour less, shouldn’t it be cheaper? That’s why 4 stars. :T

Do not go here for open skate unless it’s their night weekend skate.
They do not regulate people practicing. They will race by you and try to run you off the rink. I understand it’s probably fun for them. I would do it if I was that fast.
I left after 15 minutes out in the death colosseum, after expecting to make a few hours of it.
I did tell the ticketing staff about my experience and they were more then nice to give me tickets to their night skate which they said would be more appropriate. I just wish I would have known before I spent forever getting those skates on.

This arena is old like most ice rinks are. The locker rooms smell and are small.
We recently played in a youth tournament here were they had kids play on a school day, what’s up with that?!

Went ice skating once again, thanks to livingsocial and its $ 6 ice skating passes. My mom jumped at the offer and made me buy 8 passes. She skated (leaning on the wall the entire time, refusing to let go or even stand up straight) from the entrance door to the penalty box and called it a day.
This ice rink is SO cold and so empty. It was deserted, seriously, nobody but my parents, myself, and my boyfriend were there… the whole time. And it was a lot harder to skate on this ice because it was so new and no one else was around to carve it up and make it easier for us beginners.
I still have another 4 passes to use up before January. Next time, I’ll be sure to wear mittens/​gloves and maybe the scarf I decided to leave at home last time.
