From the reviews
A very impressive climbing gym. Its a great facility. The staff was absolutely friendly and knowledgeable. They have a strong sense of where most climbers are at and had very creative route setting even at the the lower levels (5.8s.) It was easy and fast to move from rope to rope.
I love this gym! First off, the staff is absolutely amazing, knowledgeable, and welcoming. There is a strong sense of community that is lead by the staff and owners that carries through to the climbers. Everyone is super friendly! They have routes for every level and some really fun "natural" features to play with.
In just a few words, this gym is so friendly, helpful, affordable, and genuinely care about helping you have fun and improve as a climber. My wife and I have been climbing here since they first opened earlier this year.
We celebrated our son's birthday here with about 20 of his nearest and dearest friends, and Hunter and the team did an absolutely incredible job of hosting us, training the boys, and overseeing the fun that was had.
