From the reviews

Just started climbing here in the last month. Right away you walk in and you can feel the mellow vibe, a place you just want to hang out. I’m only in town for a few months before moving overseas so I asked about options that weren’t memberships.

★★★★★ — John, Oct 2023

I really enjoyed the fantastic and fun route setting at this gym. The staff were very friendly, as were the other climbers, creating a great atmosphere. Plenty of parking outside was also a big plus.

★★★★★ — Manyi, Apr 2025

The wall is a family friendly, enjoyable place to exercise and boulder. My son loves it and wold go every single day if he had time. The staff really cares about everyone and takes all the time needed to make sure that know how to climb and the best way to do it. I give them 10/ 10 not 5/ 5.

★★★★★ — Adam, Jan 2017

We found this gym on Groupon and had a great time re-introducing ourselves to climbing! We didn't realize it was bouldering only and no top roping but ended up being happy we didn't have to deal with the harnesses today. Midday Sunday was very quiet with plenty of space to roam.
