    Being an REI member is always rewarding. Meredith supported me during my most recent visit to the store to make an exchange for an online order I placed. The process was quick and efficient and Meredith provided outstanding customer service. Thank you.

    I want to give a shout out to Ashley, who was helping us pick out a pair of shoes for our upcoming trip to Japan / Hawaii. I have honestly never met someone so knowledgeable and kind. Her recommendations were great, highly recommend stopping here and asking for her if you’re looking for a new pair of shoes!

    Wanted to take a moment to commend their associate, Jim, as both times we have worked with him, he has been extremely helpful. You can tell he's knowledgeable about the products and uses them. Jim also provides resources to use and is very kind and practical in his offering of assistance. Would highly recommend seeking him out for assistance while shopping at this location.
