This place felt very dangerous to me- climbers scaling down & running into people on the ground. I've never encountered this at a climbing gym, ever. In most cases it was kids falling onto other kids but once, an adult swang right into a group of people and knocked one to the ground. I'm not sure who is at fault but it seems like many many accidents waiting to happen. Maybe the space is too small for the number of people. Maybe too many kids.
Went here with a friend, all day use for 18 is a decent deal. Really enjoyed the auto belay walls. Couldn't do more than an hour tho, so much upper body strength needed! Was nice being able to do some of the easy courses near the floor to figure out what I was doing since this was my first time.
Stoneworks is the best climbing gym in town. They set great routes, have all the necessities one needs to train for climbing, and the community is filled with some of the kindest and most wonderful people I've met in Portland.
I've been going here for almost a year and love it! The staff is great and everyone is super friendly.
Awesome place for adults and kids. Kids love coming here and spend good 2hours until exhausted. Groupon deal for 5 time punch card is the best.
Important notes, gri-gris only, no ATCs; color ratings, not numbers; no loose chalk. I wish I had known all that first.
I would give one of the newest staff, lexi, 5 stars, the other person working a 1, and the place/ policies get a slightly generous 3.
It was our first visit and will be our last, not the gym for us.
My wife and I have been climbing for 10 yrs, but we aren't a fan of grigris and haven't used them for years. Person doing our belay check pretty much heard that, said we weren't safe and could only boulder/ auto belay. Lexi stopped us on the way out, took the time to make sure we knew how to use the grigris, which are super easy for veteran climbers once you have 5 seconds to remember, and let us climb.
Facility doesn't have that many top rope walls without auto belay, and what they have is often too tight to use even half the ropes safely. Traverses are nice and super long, and the high ball bouldering was nice too. Definitely a bouldering emphasis.
I have had a great time climbing at Stoneworks Rock Climbing Gym. It is not far from my place, right off the highway and have very good prices! They are not the biggest gym but keep me coming back from the fairness in thier groupon monthly rate and deals! Nice staff! Good deals on chalk bags, shoes, harnesses, etc!

I've gone to other climbing gyms in the PDX metro area. This is the place I go to often. Low cost, lots of routes, and easy climbing environment.

I think the 4 stars they currently have are fair. The walls and routes are thoughtful and creative, but as a business, there are drawbacks in my mind. There is this incredibly bright lamp (blindingly so) situated above one entrance to the cave that destroys your vision for a moment if you're exiting or climbing a route leading to it. I also had a negative service encounter. Most of the staff are great. They seem to tend more towards cultivating and maintaining the rugged climber's culture as opposed to having straight business excellence as a facility for a focus - which definitely isn't a negative, it's their flavor and certainly draws 'dirtbag' culture.

Good prices, friendly staff. Smaller than the gym I'm used to climbing in (Vertical World in Redmond, WA).
The only issues I had were that 1) the route ratings were hard to decipher. No v# nor 5.#. Only similar color tape which was confusing. And 2) my main issue was that after I signed the waiver and paid for the day pass/rental equip they never asked if I had belayed a person or auto belayed. Just handed me the harness and said have fun. Fortunately I know who to belay, but they had no way of knowing that as they never even asked me. Seemed dangerous.
But good prices which makes it easier for someone to get into it.

The people play interesting music, the climbing team is #1, and everyone is happy
Best climbing gym ever!!!! Contains great people and great routes. I'd rate it 100 stars out of 5 but Google won't let me .
My husband, sister and I went here and one guy ruined it for all 3 of us.. We had fun except for our encounter with one rude staff member
I've had nothing but good experiences with these folks - the gym is small but fun and challenging with a pretty damned awesome traverse that spans the every wall and the entire floor layout. The staff and owner, Juan, are easy going, Juan us a plethora of information and seem to always be ready to offer sound advice when asked - generally the whole crew are fantastic folks. To the reviewer that made a comment about Juan not being emotionally intelligent - I'm not sure what happened that seems to be a gross misstatement in my experience with him.
After taking a movement clinic with Juan and climbing in their gym multiple times I would highly recommend them - great great folks.
Awesome place to climb and very friendly staff/coaches. Our son has been climbing here for years and has loved it since day 1 and has made life long friends and memories because of this gym.
