I love this place, but my past two experiences have been kinda strange. There are two guys that work here. One of them is super friendly and will take the time to answer questions/concerns. You can tell he genuinely wants to help people. Then there’s the other dude. He seems like he’s completely checked out and almost feels like any question you ask will annoy him. I’d compare him to Toby from The Office, but even Toby has some comedic relief from time to time. This guy is more like a DMV clerk. Great selection of gear though, and a 50/50 chance you’ll get great customer service.

Wanted the Red Rocks climb book. Got the red rocks climbing book. Superb store.

Travis was extremely knowledgeable of the local trad climbs and gave me good recommendations on which route I should check out for my level of climbing. He most likely saved our group from having to climb in the dark as he was able to recommend a piece of gear that allowed us to top belay two people at the same time with ease. These people know their stuff and I will gladly shop here for their expertise, knowledge and convenience.

Best gear shop in town!

Great shop. Employees are awesome and they got everything you need! Buy local!

Poor selection of womens hiking shoes, horrible return policy.

Great staff and tons of good used gear.

Rented two crash pads from here for red rock. Friendly staff and reasonable prices!

Great climbing store. Had the book we needed. Friendly staff.

Travis was very helpful when I chose a harness. Prices are the same if not better than what you’ll find online. They also have a spot for you to clip in and test your harness. Haven’t found a better place in town for climbing gear.

The guy that helped me was very knowledgeable of the products and the hiking/climbing in general. Not your typical sport store because finally there is an expert here that knows what he is talking about.He really didnt do any pressure in me buying anything and actually helped me in making the right choice explaining to me the differences between hiking/climbing in Nevada VS other places since I am new to the area

All the staffs are experienced and knowledgeable. They give you good and practical advice when you need information to decide which product to buy. They are careful and evaluate what you need for your best. They also have consignment service that you can leave your thing to sell and you can get credit to buy new things you need.

Friendly staff, very relaxed vibe and natural approach, not pushy. They helped me get set up with a good pair of climbing shoes. From a Vegas native viewpoint, go here! Support a local business! Looking forward to next time I need to come back.Edit: I was in and out fairly quickly and the only reason I havent given five stars just yet is that I havent gone here enough to give a more solid review!

Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Run by knowledgeable climbers and quality people.Highly recommend stopping by this store if you need some gear or to use their free WiFi, showers at their gym next door, and to get fed some quality beta

I just called today June 9th, 2020 at 13:10 hrs, some one picked up the phone and hung up. I called back again, a male picked up the phone and said Desert Rock Sport, I gave him my name and asked for his, he hung up the phone for a second time. I called back again, this male picked it up, he said the name of the store with a bad attitude, like he is been bothered by the call. I asked for his name and made an upset expression over the phone; finally he said this is travis, I asked for his manager - he said he will be here at the end of the month, I asked for the managers name and he said, travis again and hung up the phone. Who ever answered the phone is the most unprofessional careless of this business agent. I never had a chance to ask my question. I am looking for Solomon hiking shoes. GOOD LUCK DESERT ROCK SPORTS with your customer service.

Local advice and knowledge if youre a traveler in need. Good cheap consignment deals can be had too, if youre lucky.

The guy working there was friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable on the products he was selling. Well worth a visit. We purchased approach shoes. Apparently they have the monopoly on those in Vegas🤷‍♂️🤣

Great climbing store in Vegas. They also have a huge consignment section as well. Definitely worth checking out if in the Vegas area. They have pretty much any gear you might want to hit the crags in the nearby Red Rock Canyon. When we were there, there are a bunch of La Sportiva demo shoes and apparel at great discounts.

The staff were very helpful and friendly over the phone, verifying availability of specific shoe sizes and offering advice on alternative climbing destinations during a rainy period. The clothing selection was a little mixed, with many items available in only one or two sizes, but this might be due to our off-season visit in early January. Although I wasnt looking for gear the selection looked pretty complete and certainly better than the local REI that we also visited.

This shop is awesome! Great selection for women clothing and an amazing clearance room! Staff was super friendly. If you hike/climb/ whatever- go there!

Best place in town for all of your gear needs. Highly recommend!

The employee was helpful and got me set up with my first climbing harness. They have a rope from the ceiling that lets you test how the sit feels.However, they have a swamp cooler instead of AC, so I quickly began sweating. Granted I sweat more than most, but it was uncomfortable in there. If that changed then Id easily give them 5★.

Decent selection for how small the location is. However, the customer service was pretty terrible. My boyfriend and I were in the store for over an hour, trying on different rock climbing shoes and harnesses. Not once did the sales associate ask us if we had any questions or how we were doing (we were literally the only ones in the small store). As new climbers, we could have used some help. I didn’t ask for guidance because there was serious bad energy from the moment we walked through the door. If REI had a better climbing section we would have gone there in a heartbeat.

Friendly staff, great selection of gear. Purchased a mammut helmet and bouldering book here. I recommend to all interested in finding used and new gear.

Clean, people nice

Its the only teal out door store we have in las vegasn soend your money here.

Helpful staff and good selection if you need something for the next days mission. Also great deals on used gear.

For a smaller space, they have a lot packed in there. The staff has been friendly and knowledgeable. They also do consignment, which makes getting started a little easier. We rented crash pads there rather affordably.

Super knowledgeable, patient staff. They have lots of guidebooks, clothing, and shoes! So many shoes! And their consignment section is definitely worth checking out as well.

Dan was very helpful and answered all my questions! He got me the equipment I needed and gave me some tips for my hike!

Always a great rest day side trip while climbing at RR. Tons of gear to drool over and the spot to go for you multi-pitch topo guides! Staff is laid back but super helpful. Feel great about supporting a local shop too. Thanks guys...

Nice place, good selection of gear and consignment shop. Knowledgeable and friendly staff.

Great selection of climbing shoes & gear! Friendly and knowledgable staff, and occasionally you can find something nice on consignment for a nice price. This is the only climbing shop we have in Las Vegas, and its a pretty rad one.

Awesome place with friendly staff and the most knowledgeable help in town. If youve come to climb at Red Rock, these are the people you want to talk to.Also they have everything a climber could need, or think of needing.

I recently purchase a jacket from this store over ebay. It was shipped in a timely manner, and the size was great. The color of the jacket that i received was not as advertised though. The picture showed a tan color jacket, the jacket i received was more of a mustard color. I therefore returned the item. I was surprised that when I was processing the return, that I was asked for a 15% restocking fee. I paid $260.00 initially for the jacket and got only reimbursed $221.00 when I returned the item. Can you believe that? The restocking fee was part of the return policies, but I never saw that info when i purchased the item. A couple of emails back and forth with desertrocksports, and I still have not received a reimbursement for this ridiculous restocking fee. Ive never paid a restocking fee in my entire life. This is the first time. Very disappointed by the stores customer service.

Went once when the sign and Internet said they were open but definitely was closed. Went again later in the week and got to check it out decent selection

Great place to buy used gear! I got a one-person tent for cheap and would gladly buy boots, backpacks, clothes, and so much other gear here.

Good selection of gear. Just not the right harness. For my needs

I like to come here to support local businesses. REI is cool and all but this place has a better vibe and almost always has better prices especially with the locals discount (ask!) You can put your used clothes and gear on consignment and get store credit if people buy. I recently had $40 in store credit from selling a couple shirts I would never wear again.The blonde chick who works there is super nice.

You have to really stay on peoples butts to make sure they order your stuff but Im gonna give it 5 stars anyway cause its chill and the employees are nice.

Nice place to get climbing gear and rent crash pads, although the rate is a little high if youre renting for a long time.

Picked me up some climbing gear here. They also have some hiking and other outdoor gear/clothing.

Cool climbing store with lots of gear, new and used, and consignment sales.

Good place to pick up random gear at possibly a good price. Frequent sales and clearance items, a great place to pick up forgotten pieces for your next assent.

Good great, better people. Love seeing a small shop making it in this hard cold world. Rock on Desert Rock

Nice climbing shop. Has a room full of consignment gear too.

Must stop in! Nice staff, and everything you could need on the trip. They also have a second hand area!

Best rock climbing gear store on the west coast. I love this place!

Super rad guys. Greta gear. Consignment shop and the guide books you need for the area!

Great value! Knowledgeable staff.

Tried renting some outdoors equippment and just flat out terrible service. The first guy that helped me out (who was probably the manager) gave me wonderful service but the guy in the afternoon was just disrespectful and zero sense of costumer service

Travis knows all the great climbing areas in Red Rocks, has books, maps and gear. Stop here before heading out to Red Rocks.......

Im not a rock climber, but I do enjoy a vigorous hike. So I checked this place out for a camel pack and they were extremely helpful, but l was very impressed how theyve got rock climbing covered.

Good shop for last minute needs. Pricey.

After reading all the positive reviews this place has accrued, I was really disappointed when I visited. They sell mainly clothing. There is very little hardware (carabiners, quick links, bolting stuff, etc.) available. I went specifically because Desert Rocks website claims that they sell Imlay gear. I was hoping to pick up 200 of Canyonero or Canyon Fire. They had about 90 feet of Canyonero and even less Canyon Fire. The woman working there wasnt rude, but she wasnt very eager to help either. Youd be a lot better off ordering your gear online or just going to the nearby REI.

Employees are knowledgeable about gear and the local area. Very helpful!

Very helpful staff. Youll love the used section!

Awesomely stocked store with very knowledgeable staff.

This place is hands down the best place to shop climbing gear in Las Vegas.

Small store, but close to Red Rocks and good source of beta.

Small store but great service, very helpful and knowledgeable

Rented pads here for a few days and the process was super easy

Love this store brilliant prices loads to choose from

Gear shop worker was super unhelpful and flippant, and Ive had multiple bad experiences. Cant speak about the gym, but the gear shop is not great.

Pleasant staff and a good selection of gear for all your Red Rock climbing needs. They have quite a bit of stuff from local makers and artists as well!

Very nice and helpful staff! Great selection!

Fantastic help, knowledgeable people and happy to guide you.

More shops should have a consignment section like DRS. This place rules.

Helpful and well-supplied.

Travis was super helpful.

Great place to rent boulder pads.

Hours listed on google are different than store hours.

How could I not love this place. 😉😉

Super helpful, local shop with local knowledge

Always mellow and friendly.

Best climbing gear shop in Vegas! :)

Rude staff!!

Always treated like a king here

👍 great

Go. Just go.

Super helpful

Great selection

Lots off gear

Awesome

Good deal. Experienced people.
