    Super friendly staff and a great place to climb. They play good music, everything is super clean and I would go there all the time if I lived close by 🥲

    Had a lot of fun trying to rock climb with a friend. We're both pretty athletic people, and this was still quite challenging for us. The wall is only 15 feet high, so no ropes are used. They have padded mats to soften your landing if you fall. There are six difficulty levels of routes up to the top of the wall. Each route is color coded, so you know which features to use for each route. There were about 6 or 7 routes for each difficulty. We were able to complete all of the level ones, and about half of the level twos. The level ones were all pretty easy, with good handholds and an obvious path to the top. The level twos involved a lot more challenging holds with just your fingers, and you needed to think a lot more about where to place each hand and foot. Some of the level twos required more strength, others needed more balance, and some seemed completely impossible. We also watched some other climbers attempt a level six. They looked like Spider-Man, I have no idea how they were staying on the wall. We climbed for about an hour and a half. That's when our forearms and hands were getting twitchy as our strength gave out. Overall, it was super fun. Seems like a great wall for beginners to get into climbing, with some real challenges for more advanced climbers.

    This place is down the road from us and my pre-schooler is hooked! They were so helpful and attentive to him, only his second time climbing. Easy to work with, welcoming, and a great, convenient spot that isn't trying to overdo it (as so many other climbing gyms are). Got some passes and will surely become members when those are done!

    Explored other climbing gyms around the area and this was my favorite! **Bouldering only at this location ** The staff is friendly and super helpful. There is a great number of bouldering problems so there is always something to work on. Definitely worth checking out if you are interested :)

    Great gym! Staff is excellent. They've only been open two months and have already re-set one of the walls so they're serious about keeping good routes up. They have cardio equipment and a free-weight area in addition to the climbing walls so you can still work out on your "off" climbing days as well.

    Really fun routes, with a good variety of styles and difficulty. Super clean space and the staff are great. Best spot for bouldering in the area!

    Very cool place, it tends to be a little expensive but it's a nice place to go rock climbing for a day to hang out with friends or go alone! It does not have a harness though as the rock wall doesn't ascend too high.

    Great bouldering gym with fun route-setting and a super convenient location! It's kinda expensive though. A month-to-month family membership here costs the same as a much larger rock gym nearby, and there is no discount for buying the membership annually. Paying more while losing the option for auto-belay, top-rope, and lead is tough.

    This gym rocks! Pun intended, the staff is amazing and friendly, great community and a huge variety of sets in a limited space. Great for beginner to advanced climbers

    A fun place to learn, to grow, and to meet people and help each other

    Boutique rock climbing gym, but with everything you need. I like it opens until 11pm so late night workout is great, and the climbing routes gets changed once a while so you have new challenges, I can only climb level 1-2 with occasional 3s, but still a good selection of routes. Convenient location too!

    This has become my main climbing gym from the instant I got the intro. There is only bouldering at this gym, but the community and the staff here cannot be beat at any other climbing gym. Everyone is so welcoming and excited to talk about their favorite activity. There is a reason why staff from all the other gyms in the area come here to get some chill climbing in.

    This place is great. The problems change frequently. The community is great, supportive and really helpful. It's the best bouldering gym, I've been to in a long time.

    Great location for me. This is a small bouldering gym and it’s not too crowded. Great for training!
