What's inside
“I've been bouldering for about 4 years now, and this is one of the better gyms I've been to.”
“They have some top ropes, but because I'm always there alone I've never got to use them even though they rent harnesses (I think most people there are like me.”
“Not only did he help me tie my climbing shoes (I only wear Velcro), I also saw him convincing a young ANW to join the kids team!”

“The setting is stellar, and the other climbers I spoke to were cool and kind enough to explain to me how the boulder problems and grading worked.”

“The staff were so helpful and the facility was awesome!”
From the reviews
I brought by 7 year old grandson here and he LOVED it!! The staff were so helpful and the facility was awesome! We will definitely be back!
We were there for my daughter's friends birthday party. They all had a great time.
This is a bouldering gym for the most part. I was an outdoor pitch climber 20 years ago. After paying for three day passes I joined for a month today. I'm so out of climbing shape I decided to use this bouldering (a term I never heard before) to get back in shape to get back on the pitch.
Just went today for the first time. I've been bouldering for about 4 years now, and this is one of the better gyms I've been to. Despite being small, they make excellent use of the space.

Climbing parties come with staff who handle the harnesses and belaying, so parents can mostly watch. One thing that's different here: every guest needs a signed waiver — send the gym's waiver link to the other parents when you send invites, or check-in day gets slow. Packages, party rooms, and pricing change often, so check the current options and book ahead — weekend slots go fast at popular gyms.
Adaptive climbing
ACTIVE CLIMBING - Indoor Rock Climbing Gym is mentioned for adaptive climbing or paraclimbing — sessions, equipment, or coaching that make the walls climbable for people with disabilities. Offerings like this vary a lot gym to gym and schedules change, so call ahead to ask what's available and when the next session runs.
