The Bulldogs play their home games at the Robert Ewigleben Ice Arena (pronounced AY-VAH-glave-in) on the campus of Ferris State University.

The arena is attached to the Sports complex and Wink Arena (home of Bulldog basketball) The building is the central nervous system of all Bulldog athletics. With a seating capacity of 2,457, the arena features a half size rink for recreation use, three dressing rooms with direct access to the ice surface, a multi-purpose wing, and the Bulldog Room lounge for both pre-game and post-game activities.

The centerpiece to the Arena is the expanded, more attractive common lobby area, which is connected to the newly constructed 2,400 seat Wink Arena.
