Large store with a good selection…read more Sportsman's Warehouse, in my opinion, is a discount Cabela's. They cater to the north valley outdoor enthusiast: hunting, fishing, shooting, camping, barbecuing, you'll find your items here. This store is fairly new and is located within North Valley Plaza in the building once occupied by Mervyn's. The plaza has a lot of free parking and is easy to access from both the Cohasset Road and East Avenue freeway exits. I enjoy coming here to stock up on pellets for my Traeger grill. Easily the lowest price in town here. There is always a good selection and a wide assortment of options. They seem to have sales often as well which makes shopping here all the more enticing. The staff have always been friendly and helpful, too. You won't get a true Cabela's experience here, but definitely come if you are in need of outdoor gear at a good price.

Services were so BAD, I went there to look at some Rangefinding Binocular for hunting season and I…read morewent up to one of the worker and he kind of ignore me and said someone will help you when they can. But he wasn't doing anything. So I went back to the glass case and waited for someone to come over and show me the Rangefinding Binocular, I stood there for over 20 minutes. And I look back over at the other counter and there were 4 workers laughing and not one of them asked if I needed any help. I never experience anything like this as a customer, because when a customer is waiting at a glass case I'm sure the customer would like to look at something. If there was a Zero Star I would have given it Zero. Hopefully upper management will look at this review and have a talk with the workers around the Hunting and gaming section. I was going to potentially buy a $1000 Rangefinding Binocular for hunting. But will order it online from Bass Pro. Date: August 8 2026 Time: 4:40 pm to 5:00pm

Will absolutely be back and highly recommend.

THEY. ARE. FOR. SALE." So I look and realized they're 30% so I respond "oh what I think he means is they're 30% OFF ON SALE". Maybe it's because they're over 50 and working a minimum wage job at play it again but my god a simple "oh they're 30% off clubs" or "they're sale clubs 30% off". Not that hard to be decent in customer service. If you're that much of a sour puss maybe go work elsewhere.

The price and time frame didn't work for me so I took it to another shop for a second opinion. The new shop installed the parts I brought and said they WERE the correct parts. I don't know if this was just a mix-up by the technician at North Rim or some other kind of shenanigans to get me to buy expensive parts from them instead of using what I provided. Either way, my trust is gone. They also charged me $20 to take off and put back on the same broken crank set.

As if I was supposed to be psychic and just understand I wasn't welcome even though it wasn't closing time. It was weird.

I have been here about five times, as I would rather support local businesses than chains such as REI. My only problem with this place is that every time I go here, I walk in and the three people behind the counter have nothing better to do but stand there and STARE at me. When I notice this and look at them, they suddenly look away. Every time I have gone here this happens and it makes me feel really uncomfortable and want to get out of there ASAP. I would honestly spend much more money there if the employees had some louder music playing or some laptops to play with. read more

Mountain Sports is the place to go if you want quality merchandise. If you are a serious outdoors-man, then this is the place of sporting goods. They also have great shirts if you want to look good while you are hiking or even going casual to work. Be sure to say Hello to Bruce or his friendly staff. read more

Aiden was my Sales Rep - he did an excellent and friendly job! After wearing them for a few days, my heels were aching. I stopped wearing the Hokas - the pain was gone in a day. No one made me buy them or pushed me into them - I did that all on my own. I decided to go back to the store a few days later to ask if there was anything that could be done about my heel problem. Manager Ashley helped me greatly - she listened, she helped me select a different shoe (one with less "drop") and she exchanged the Hokas for a different brand that are working fantastic - no more heel pain. The Customer Service was excellent and friendly, and I'm very happy. Fleet Feet has made a customer for life out of me!

As far as people saying that this place is overpriced. I think that's not true at all. They have a ton of boards and gear that is a year old and heavily discounted. Everyone I worked with was super friendly and they found me stuff that is not only going to improve my snowboarding, but make my trips a lot easier, and more fun because I finally have the right gear that fits me correctly. 1000 out of 10 this was one of the best shops I've ever been to! Definitely come here for your snowboard/ski needs !! I bought a new snowboard, new bindings, and new boots, and I left them there while I went and spent Christmas with my family while they waxed both my boards and mounted my new bindings on my new board for free! Super quality service and very happy with the results !

They are also priced fairly, great deals on everything! Overall, highly recommend their ski/snow services, bootfitting, and appropriate recommendation for my snowboarding ability.

I enjoyed that this shop is also adjacent to the south campus neighborhood where all the Greek houses are. It was an easy two block walk from my fraternity house. The store, while small, is very clean and orderly. You'll find a multitude of Greek-related merchandise (cups, apparel, crafts, stickers, etc). The gentleman who runs the shop will also take custom orders for embroidering or ordering a particular product. A convenient little shop overall, and a true asset to the Chico State Greek community.
