Amenity details from City of Ottawa open data (Feb 2019).
A boarded rink with lights plus a separate puddle pad means hockey and free skating can happen side by side, into the evening. The fieldhouse gives you somewhere to lace up and a washroom, and there's usually someone on site — though the ice is kept up by volunteers, so conditions follow whoever's been out flooding. Note that the site isn't wheelchair accessible.
