My first impression of this store was, "What is with this place?" I walked past the ennui filled…read morefront of the store and went to buy some boots. I picked out a couple of pairs and sat down to wait my turn. The salesperson was helping one person, who was taking his time, speaking with his partner, and testing his shoes. I sat on the bench and watched while she stood around and watched TV glancing my way one-in-a-while. When she did see me (at least I thought she saw me, the ennui was pretty thick) I held up the shoes in the universal signal of 'I'd like to try these on'. Apparently I needed a different universal signal? Even a "I'll try to get someone to help you" would have been nice. Finally I flagged down another salesperson and asked if he could help. He immediately looked at the shoes I had chosen, asked my size and went off to find them. Meanwhile the original salesperson finally looked over and asked "Oh, do you need help?" I admit, I laughed. Mind you, we were only ten feet away and she had to have seen the other person. Now for the good and why I'm giving the store 4 stars. The person who helped me was outstanding and the four stars are really for him. He knew the brands, how they might fit my feet and how to size them. When I realized I needed a size down from one pair, he not only brought that shoe but the new size in the others, just-in-case. This was a huge help as I did need a size down in the others. He was engaging and conversational, AND, managed to help other customers while helping me. His service was outstanding and in the end I felt like I bought just the right boots.

Cabellas had a successful grand opening with all the advertising on radio, TV, Internet, and circulars they sent out. I have personally visited this store at least 5 times within the first couple weeks of opening. So, I really liked this sporting goods store. I am glad to say I will probable become a regular there. In fact, if I wasn't so tired, I would be there right now shopping. First of all, they have a bargain cave. Second, they have a gun gallery. A third main feature is that they have a cafe.

I'll still go to REI to try stuff on and see features firsthand because they have more of a selection of what I buy (I.e. gear rather than clothes), but I won't buy it there. If Gearhead can get it, I'll order it through them. I had the hardest time trying to find sandals that I actually liked. Chris was absolutely awesome and even called another store that had what I thought I wanted and had them hold them for me. Ended up hating those after wearing them around the house and went back to Chris and returned them and ended up getting what he had suggested in the first place. I haven't been wearing them long, but I can already say they're by favorite shoes I've ever had (bedrock cairns). The customer service here is what it used to be at REI. I'll go here from now on.

They have outdoor seating as well. This is "geared" towards bikers and they sell gear as well as have a nice place to take a break during or after a ride.

They have multiple board games to choose from for entertainment as well. That must not be what most people like to do on their breaks since we were the first ones to get into Sorry. Overall I look forward to coming here again to grab a beer with friends at times especially with the nice weather!

We took matters into our own hands and took a mini photo shoot in front of their gorgeous foyer tree and it worked perfectly for our Christmas cards. Highly recommend this store and its selection just not the Santa pics.
