Group Rentals

Bring your friends and experience the great game of curling with a group rental at the Detroit Curling Club! We are the only facility in Metropolitan Detroit that offers full-length ice and regulation stones, and we love sharing our facility and our sport with the public. Group rentals include all equipment and instruction. Rental times are available on select weekday mornings and afternoons, and periodically on weekends. Ice is available to rent by the “sheet”, with each sheet accommodating up to ten curlers.

Rental Session: A rental lasts 2.5 hours – this time includes a 30 minute off-ice safety presentation and approximately 2 hours of ice time.

Rates:  Rental fees include instruction, equipment, and approximately 2 hours of ice time.

  • Price per sheet rental for up to eight curlers:
    • Weekdays (Non Prime/Holiday): $380
    • Weekends + Prime/Holiday: $480
  • Pricing may vary for peak dates and is reflected in the booking platform.

Deposit: At the time the reservation is made, a deposit of 20% per sheet will be required to hold your reservation. This will be deducted from your final bill.

Number of Sheets: Our reservation system automatically assigns the correct number of sheets based on the number of renters to ensure a safe and fun experience for all. Up to 10 renters = 1 sheet, 11-20 renters = 2 sheets, 21-30 renters = 3 sheets, 31-40 renters = 4 sheets.
