Visited for the first time and had an absolute blast! Despite being busy, they had so many places you could climb that we could generally find a spot. Both climbing and bouldering were great fun, and routes were clearly labeled for difficulty. First-time visitors' orientation took about 20 minutes, then we could get started climbing! We spent about 2 hours climbing off and on, with rest periods in between. We'll definitely come back another time!
I didn't hate my visit, but I didn't love it, either. The gym was very busy on Wednesday night. While this is a great sign of success for the owners, the crowd definitely made me feel more stressed. That said, it's great to have a gym this nice adding competition to the area. Ultimately, if I lived closer, I would certainly keep this gym in my rotation. Considering the distance and its current popularity, it may be a bit of time before I'm back. I do have a few constructive notes: Limited Beginner Routes: I struggled to find a good variety of beginner-level bouldering routes. Encouraging Self-Policing: There was a group of younger climbers hanging out near the tilt wall and not using the equipment. The gym staff were helpful in suggesting that we could proactively ask them to move if they weren't actively climbing, but the area would benefit from clearer enforcement of the "no occupying equipment" norm, especially when people are lying down with headphones on in prime areas. Time Delays: Because of how busy it was, I experienced a frustrating 30-45 minute delay just to get certified for top rope/auto belay. Having to wait that long before accessing core activities is definitely a downside.
Very friendly staff, willing to take the time necessary for certification tests. They're still working out their wall climb ratings based on community feedback, so there is not yet a universal color-coded climb difficulty. Three auto-belays mean that you can climb if you're not top rope certified, and they offer bouldering as well as tall rope walls (40' height).
We just hosted our daughter’s 10th birthday party here, and it was fantastic. Seven girls had a blast with a private climbing wall, party room, and two amazing guides who took care of everything. They got the kids geared up, kept the energy positive and relaxed, and made the whole experience so easy and fun. Can’t wait to come back!
Very nice facility with fun climbs! Free and plentiful parking and welcoming staff. Definitely recommend checking it out! We were there on the first day they were open and I was impressed with how well they were set up and how smoothly check in went.
