What families say

““Huge fan of this gym! Friendly staff and TONS of variety in the walls. Be prepared to park up to a few blocks away and walk. If you're a dude it's fine, but I can see it feeling sketch if you're a lady and walking around when it's dark.”” — Michael

““I love this gym! I’ve always liked this gym bc it’s very calm during the day and fun and social in the evenings. Setting is top notch and the staff are cool. They play fun music in different genres. They have a kilter board upstairs And an extensive weights/cardio gym upstairs.”” — Elena

““Great gym, great fellow climbers, great setting. Keeps me coming for over 10 years.”” — Andrew
