Winter Lodge has operated since 1956 and is celebrating 70 years of fun. It is a non-profit organization. USA TODAY reported that Winter Lodge is the #1 rated ice skating rink in the U.S. according to Yelp users, and Outside Magazine ranked it as one of the top 10 outdoor ice skating experiences in the U.S. Winter Lodge was voted “Best of the Bay Area” for a family-favorite destination by Bay Area Parent Magazine. One testimonial notes that the past stretches back a long way at both the oldest ice skating rink in the San Francisco Bay Area and the only permanent outdoor rink west of the Sierra. The smallest available skate size is toddler 6 and the largest sizes are Ladies 14 and Mens 15, and skates are intended to fit snug and be laced tightly to the top with toes touching the end of the skate.
