Back to the selection, it has apparel, exercise equipment, sports equipment, shoes, knick-knacks, etc. They even offer stringing services for tennis players. They often have sales here, which is when I come in and buy items. Otherwise, prices are a little too high for me. Service here is not too bad, pretty easy to get someone's attention, and they'll guide you to the appropriate section of the store.

We were at the mall anyway so decided to go in to check it out in person. Tyler or Taylor, crap I'm bad w names, but it was either Tyler or Taylor, really went above and beyond to help us with answering our millions of questions and trying to help us when we asked to get it going to try out. He was unable to get that key thing to work, but man, did that kid give it a valiant effort. We really appreciated his assistance and patience. The store is clean and well stocked. Will absolutely be back and highly recommend.

Sportsman's Warehouse

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

It was also great that the employee didn't try to shove the most expensive item into a sale, but rather listened to what was needed.

Should we ever need anything else for our outdoor life style, we will look no further than this great little store.

They kept my bike for a few days before calling and telling me they needed to order the right ones and some of it was on backorder for a month. 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.
