Powered by GoogleGreat arena! Well maintained and the olympic sheet is a beaut!
One of the best sobriety pow wows. It was even better before 9/11 when crossing the border wasn’t such an event.
What an amazing facility, its one of the best hockey / family centers in the state of Michigan. Super organized especially for an 8 year old hockey tournament.
Had a fantastic time at Big Bear! Great facilities and lots to do. Minus one star because the air-hockey table is missing the puck.
There is always something to do here. Held a Sobriety Powwow here. Had a great time. Also the community Domestic Violence Walk
