3 weeks agoWe had my son’s 7th birthday party here and he had a blast. Age range of kids was from 4-9 and the instructors were able to accommodate them all, and provide lots of opportunities for the kids to climb. I booked online and there was a glitch so when I called to confirm a few days before, it wasn’t showing in their schedule. They were still able to set up the party for us and everything went smoothly. Thank you all for a great experience. My son can’t wait to come back!

3 months agoSuper friendly staff. The routes are fun, and there seems to be at least one wall a week that gets changed. The only downside is they they use tape instead of colored rocks for bouldering, so as a beginner sometimes it can be hard to tell what the route is, but you catch on pretty quick.

2 months agoThe folks who work here are dedicated and helpful. I started going here with my Fiance to try something new together…. We’ve been members for a few months now and enjoy the space & Hobby. I’m not sure where a few of these negative comments are coming from… they’re pretty inaccurate. As you can tell, the Manager seemingly handles them with grace and professionalism. Thanks all for being around and welcoming my Fiance and I to the sport.

7 months agoCame in on Saturday morning to take part of their Womxn’s climb event. The person at the front desk said he wasn’t sure if I was able to, but I can do a day pass. Not sure why… It took me like 15 minutes to finally check in and get the day pass since the front desk staff was on the phone. I’m not a fan of the taped routes and some problems had tape peeling off which kind of made it hard to see where the route went. I’d recommend going to the Reach facility instead of this location.

4 months agoExpensive, but so is every other rock gym. The staff is friendly and the routes are very well made. There is a diversity of difficulty levels and wall angles. The atmosphere is great and people are always glad to help out or cheer. Sometimes the gym gets packed and it takes a while of waiting to actually get in the wall, so I recommend avoiding peak rush hours. The parking is free and there are plenty of spots.
