Received a gift card for my birthday and was able to try Approach. I couldn't be more happier to try rock climbing. Atmosphere is great and employees are friendly. Ever since I can here I've recommend this place to friends, co-workers, and family.

Wonderful place to get some energy out! Staff is very helpful and makes the process simple. Definitely thinking about memberships. They even have a kids room for the littles in your family :)

Great service and great facility. The front desk lady was super helpful and eager to help us get started. There is a wide variety of difficulty in the walls. Will definitely go again!

I'm brand new to climbing and was super intimidated to start a new hobby. I love the atmosphere here. It's friendly, non-judgemental and the staff is genuinely helpful. I look forward to growing as a climber here!

Bouldered with our children over Thanksgiving break - awesome! Great staff and fun people to hang out with. Plenty of routes even when there are 20-25 people bouldering. I would recommend filling out the release forms online before you get there.

Great staff and solid facility. Top notch bouldering, flooring, training equipment and snacks. Killer campus board (i.e., currently the only public board for 100s of miles). The lead and top rope facilities is rather short otherwise a great gym.Note, as a Boulder, CO resident my standards are very high. This is an incredible gym for the Midwest.

Great bouldering area. Top rope area is too small to matter. Great staff and environment. It's kind of like a big, warm, welcoming family with the most well behaved pet's keeping everyone smiling.

Great place to spend time and have fun doing it! Friendly staff and atmosphere and challenging walls to climb. There is a kids room with easier walls to climb for the younger kids, and harness climbing as well as harness free climbing. This place rocks! Shout out to the dog!

Clean, New equipment, friendly staff. Autobelays in good working order.Expensive and small. Extremely short walls (~20ft). Be aware this gym has some unusual rules for a climbing gym. For example: You cant tie in and belay your kid on top rope - the climber has to be certified too. Locker and changing space is very limited.

Absolutely Wonderful. Our group of 6 had little climbing experience, but with the instruction of the staff were able to show us how to properly use the equipment. Caring staff and wonderful owner. Very sociable. Even nice enough to take our picture before we left. Definitely will be back again and recommend it to you all.
