    Great location with awesome climbing walls. As someone who doesn’t have much experience, the process to rent gear, watch a short educational video, and to climb was all incredibly simple. It’s certainly for all skill levels, and they have unassisted climbing walls where you just hook in and start climbing by yourself with the auto belay systems. My brother had his own belay devices so we tackled some other walls but there is tons of options to choose from. Staff was helpful and the facility was clean and a great place to spend an afternoon. Highly recommend!

    I don't post too many 1 star reviews, but man this place was really disappointing. I think one of the most vital parts of climbing is the community. And this gym just lacked it. The staff at the front desk was the most rude people in general I had encountered. Like if I were a Karen it would have gone south real quick. But honestly, she was so rude to me and my group. Addressed me as if I were stupid, and even when I tried on shoes and knew there were too big (I'm a climber I know) she acted insulted for telling her I needed a smaller size different than what she gave me. That was only one of several bitter interactions she had with us. I would say the gym itself has a nice range of problems geared towards all levels, so that's nice. And they have top outs and other things some gyms don't have. Lastly, I am skeptical of the cleanliness because this is one of the worst smelling gyms. I know it's a gym, and I know how we climbers smell. But just about all the gyms I've been to including the super small ones in a garage basically have good ventilation and cleaning. This gym lacked both. Their rental equipment also looked sketchy. Would not recommend.

    This was so much fun! Staff was friendly and informative. It's a little pricey but I would go again. Really puts your strength to the test too!

    Visited here while on vacation visiting family. Super fun and great staff! Had a good variety of boulder options (slabs, overhangs and I even found a couple traverse problems) and we had a lot of fun on the auto-belay routes as well. Definitely recommend filling out the waiver before hand since there is a thoroughly informative video you have to watch first.

    I came in having never climbed before and learned a lot and had a great time. I can't speak from the perspective of an experienced climber, but if anybody is reading this because you've never tried climbing and you're thinking about starting, please do yourself a favor and give it a try. The staff are really friendly and welcoming (thanks again Jason!), and they'll tell you everything you need to know to get started and feel like you belong. The day pass and the membership are both great deals. The facility is clean and appears to be very well maintained. If you're on the fence, give it a try.

    This was my first time climbing and they were super welcoming for a newbie. We had so much fun and we'll definitely be back.

    Had lots of fun, day pass is nice if going to make use of it time wise. There were 4 tall auto belays & 6 upstairs shorter ones. They weren't as crowded as I thought they might be on a busy rainy holiday Sunday , especially considering how many people in the place. Most were bouldering! Beginners 5y through adult felt satisfied and accomplished. Annoying that even kids with experience not allowed to clip in & out (as we're used to at other climbing places), so constantly bugging us 2 adults to clip them in &out. Only real downside was the smell, really hits you as soon as you walk in & doesn't let up, pew ew!

    I started rock climbing in ohio a year ago and went here for the first time. It was awesome. Those 60 foot walls that allow you to hang completely upside down at the top to cross between walls is amazing. I just wish I didn't live so far away. The staff was cool and helpful. It was extremely busy and they all worked together to corral the chaos and get everyone on the wall as fast as possible. While being aware of the need for safety

    I have endless good things to say about this place. I joined 3 weeks ago and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. The social aspect is incredible, the staff is lovely and helpful, the resources of rentals and random little things you might need, the gym, the free classes, there’s so much to love. Also, the hours. Opening early and staying open late has been soooooo wonderful so that I can use my membership to the fullest

    Everybody here is so nice and helpful, the gym and climbing areas are clean and easy to navigate. From the moment we walked in Bryan and the rest of the staff were awesome and helped us get set up with everything we needed, this is definitely going to be one of our favorite spots to come after work or on the weekends

    Fine gym, lots of routes, but their rope routes are seem notably over graded. They have a ton (like...dozens) of "5.10a-5.11c" routes set, but the handful I climbed felt between 5.8-5.10. Route rating is an interesting enigma - they have grade response cards on some routes and I was surprised to see so many clients agreeing that routes were what the setter suggested. Didn't make much sense to me; the setters from my home gyms in Atlanta would rate most of these Inner Peaks route 2-3 grades lower. They have a 5.10a set that I would blindly rate a 5.7!

    Really nice space for climbing. Lots of boulders and rope climbs. 3 auto belays. A really big selection of workout equipment and climbing boards.

    Cool gym. Out-of-towner who travels a lot for work so I like to try out local climbing gyms. I mostly stick to bouldering, but I did try out the auto belays for a bit. The staff was prompt with the orientation. Lots of good routes to choose from. The holds could use a cleaning. Some routes were hard to distinguish colors because there was so much chalk. Will be back again when I'm in Charlotte.

    I have been to MANY climbing gyms as I use to work at one and have been a climber for 8+ years. This gym was smelly, the routes were okay at best, it’s absolutely overpriced. The yoga classes are sub par and the weight lifting area is a joke. I have been to gyms that cost less and have state of the art facilities plus a nice weight lifting area and a plethora of classes to choose from in private classroom areas included in the membership. This place is honestly not worth it unless they lower their prices.

    I took my son and his friends to inner peaks for my sons birthday. Overall the kids had a great time. We came in, they watched a video then had a short demo. They were a little disappointed that because they had not had their training course they were very limited as to what all they could do at his location. We have been to several other rock climbing gyms in Virginia where you have a dedicated staff member stay with your group and you got individual training during the entire duration of your visit and such are able to do a lot more. I was disappointed that this location did not have that service. I would have paid extra for it since that greatly adds to your experience. In all the kids had fun, but this is really not a place for beginners. The staff pretty much stays at the front desk.
