Only thing is that at the top where there is the overhang they have a white plastic pipe on the edge. It's slippery and if they put a stepper rock on the bottom, it's very hard to get access and there is no grip. But I do see the pro with those white pipe. At least you won't get scraped. They have a few auto belay. Not bad. Had a great time here. First time here free rentals. Definitely coming back

Separate parking lot but street parking available if it gets full as well. As mentioned in other reviews (and I was really hoping they were wrong) the place has a deep smell of feet when you first enter, but luckily the nose senses get overwhelmed and you get used to it after a little bit. Other than that, my first time rock-climbing was amazing! After signing our waiver forms, Christian (our instructor) came out and greeted us. He was friendly, helpful and remembered all our names in a really short time! He took us climbing walls starting with easy to medium to hard. He was very informative in what muscles we should be using, giving us tips (like keeping your arms straight as much as possible decrease fatigue), encouraging us, giving us breaks, etc.. He was very flexible in what difficulty in walls we wanted to climb and gave us tips on which rocks to use if we got stuck. We went through 4.5 walls in our 2 hours and my arms were spent. Good workout for your body and mind, to figure out the best path and determination to get to the top. Overall, super great experience and he was an amazing instructor! I would definitely climb and hang out here again!

If you tentatively book your number of guests, make sure you confirm with your guests or you'll be charged for every one including no-shows without proper notice. They verbally said 48hrs. On the website it says 24hrs. Aside from contractual logistics, I give a solid 3 star rating.

There's a basketball court right outside too, where kids were playing a pickup game. Wish I lived here so I could actually climb here!

Update: went 2 years later and did the extreme course with my 12 and 14 year old kids after the…read moreclassic course. It was really fun, and it's quite the workout if you're not usually climbing. Friendly staff who are helpful and great and explaining things. We had booked, paid, and filled waivers ahead of time but checking in took 15 minutes, as they only had one window open. In the harnessing area, we were there on a weekday morning and we were the only ones in our own group so there was no wait. We started with the classic course. There was a staff who stayed with us for most of the first half, and he said we finished the first part fast and caught up to a slow family. So he suggested we do the next course and then come back, which we did. He left us after awhile so when we went to the extreme course, no one was there to show us what to do and it's a different lock system so I had to go find someone. The extreme course is pretty challenging in my opinion, and this was our 3rd time at WildPlay. I'm a middle-aged mom who doesn't work out and managed to do it! My arms were sore after but it was fun !! There was an overweight kid who had a hard time just climbing a ladder on the classic course - so you have to be someone fit to do it but I think for the majority of active people it's doable if you have an open mind, like challenges, zip lines and climbing. Do it! YOLO!

I accompanied my son on the kid's course. It was fun and different but I have some feedback,…read moreespecially regarding safety. - not enough staff. We waited a LONG time after getting the harness to walking toward the course for a short demo. During that time waiting, someone could have walked us to the course so the kids could practice with the hook because many kids struggled on the course. - Having smaller groups would avoid the back log of people when a kid wanted to get off the course and if people are slower. It could easily get bottle necked. About 30 of us had to back track since he was one of the first people in the group who was scared on the first run. Imagine if it was half way through. - Younger kids should have a parent with them on the course as mandatory. The kid in front of my son was having troubles with the hook and the guide was rarely to be seen. She didn't stay with the group long and we could never find another guide. The child's mother had no interest in helping from below! I ended up helping this young child a few times or we would be stuck behind him for a while. A second guide came much later, but when the kid behind us got caught on the 2nd zip line, my husband had to help the kid after him to get back to the top to loosen the rope. That was a dangerous situation. More staff needed, especially on the kid's course, if it is not expected that parents join their kids. For some parts, a parent wouldn't even be able to help if they can't reach higher from on the ground. They ask your feedback in a survey and I also emailed personally, but no response. I would go back, but try going on a weekday or early morning during less busy times.

This gym includes plenty of equipment for both cardio and strength training. It has a track which overlooks several basketball courts (which are also used for things such as volleyball and badminton). There is a rock wall which is used for bouldering and belaying. They also have a pool and hot tub. When I visit I usually attend one of the many classes that are taught here. All the instructors are great, and classes vary to accommodate all fitness levels. The best part is that unlimited classes cost only $45 per quarter! Classes are normally $5 each, so you save quite a bit if attending more than one each week. Personal training is also inexpensive, though I have never tried it. To attend this gym you have to be affiliated with WWU in some way, though you are able to attend as a guest if you are attending with a current member. Membership is free for students taking 6+ credits, and inexpensive for anyone else who qualifies for membership.
