Been coming here for nearly a year and absolutely love this place. Recently did a lock-in and climbed all night with good friends and it was an absolute blast. 10 out of 10 would recommend again and again. Definitely worth going to climb there, the staff is friendly and knowledgable and the other climbers are great.

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

This climbing gym can work for families seeking a rock climbing introduction with routes for various skill levels. However, serious allegations of inappropriate staff behavior and safety concerns about outdated equipment and inadequate padding make it essential to carefully evaluate conditions and staff interactions during your visit.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

πŸ’‘Plan for 1-2 hours maximum as longer sessions require significant endurance
⏰Facility is smaller than many expect so manage expectations accordingly
🎟️Check that adequate floor padding is in place, especially for bouldering areas
πŸš—Be aware of dim lighting that can make route colors difficult to distinguish

β€œThis was our second trip to Space City Rock Climbing. As with our first visit, everyone was very professional and wanting to ensure a good time was had by all. The staff went out of their way to make sure no one got hurt. The obstacles are of varying levels of difficulty. So, there is a climbing adventure waiting for everybody. We stayed for about an hour and a half. The kids had a blast. I highly recommend visiting and seeing for yourself what a great family friendly place this really is. To stay longer than an hour or so I believe would require some endurance training.”

β€œA fun climbing gym. The staff was friendly during our session. I stayed on what I perceived was the easier route (it wasn’t marked). The inside is not what I was expecting. It’s smaller than I imagined it to be. This was my first rock climbing experience so I have nothing to compare my visit to. Rock climbing was on my list of things to try and this gym served the purpose.”

β€œFound place on Groupon and went with my sisters as novice rock climbers. Place was empty. Met with Dwight and did not have a friendly introduction from him, which is fine, but he was extremely condescending during our entire interaction. As well as speaking harshly to us, he was also very touchy during our instruction. I understand if some touch is needed for rope demonstration & guiding but CONSENT is needed before touching customers. He wrapped his arms around me during rope demonstration, grabbed my hips while telling me β€œgood girl”, and was patting in very close proximity of my sister’s behind while telling her β€œbutt to the floor”. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. Again, all of this happened without CONSENT and was extremely inappropriate overall. Dwight also made us feel extremely uncomfortable if we did not understand his instructions by making unnecessary/harsh comments. We did experience harassment and will not be coming to this establishment again. Additionally, other than one other employee (new/in training), there was no other staff on the floor after Dwight left our interaction. I definitely wanted to speak to him regarding all of this afterwards but he was no where near by. Place seems old and outdated. Definitely has many areas for concern-safety wise. I wish I read all of the 1 star reviews before i came to this place. Will not be returning!!!”
