Very helpful staff! This was our first time. They gave a quick intro to the facility and a demonstration on the use of the auto belaying system. To use the ropes you must have additional classes/certification. They have numerous routes with their auto belaying systems. Two hours of climbing was more then enough for everyone. We will be coming back and well worth the money for two hours of climbing!

Gripstone is great! The bouldering section is an OK size. My son (8yo) and I generally use the auto belays. My little one likes the auto belay on the kids wall. When I can get a buddy to go, the top rope is pretty fun. The routes change frequently enough and have a good range for all skill levels. There is a small workout area. I am very happy with Gripstone. Before COVID, I went 5 times a month.
Our son took some classes here and really enjoyed the staff and class. It's nice they have self-belay options as well. Gym looks great and seems to have steady business. It feels like with that amount of space there could be some more routes. A tad pricey, and they could really fill that front space with some more retail - but otherwise a great gym for all intents and purposes.
I went for the beginners class and was able to learn a lot as well as explore a lot. I did not feel as though there were to many people there to have options for what I wanted to climb, I don't know if that would be the case without the reservation policy that is set up. The instructor was encouraging and knowledgeable. To my surprise after the 90 minute class I was turned loose for a half hour of further climbing. I had a great time!
Friendly customer service, and overall great experience. Theres a good amount of auto belays available to you. Plenty of boulder walls and, for those with the training, many top rope courses. They also do well enforcing the covid rules. Mask is only off briefly to take a breath, plenty of sanitization stations as well.
