    The very chill resident doggo

    Very friendly staff, adorable dog, and good quality gear. We rented snowshoes and they worked perfectly and we had a great time. Reasonable pricing too! Definitely stop by if you're in need of any clothing, gear, or rentals :)

    We unexpectedly needed snowshoe rental in Idyllwild (March 2023), and Nomad Ventures set us up with great gear! The staff was very helpful regarding trail advice. They even provided helpful information about driving on the snowy mountain roads.

    Snow/ice MICROspike footware tractions

    To hike in ice/snow around Idyllwild (CA), I found a perfect snow/ice MICROspikes footwear tractions. The store is small but very well equipped for all-season gears. The staff is extremely friendly, knowledgeable and efficient to help me to find the best product I needed. I highly recommend it.

    Great experience at this REI store. I've been researching very heavily into the idea of getting…read morerid of ALL weight for my luggage. No wheels ... nothing hardcase ...., it's exceptionally scary .., but it has to be done .., I'm overweight with luggage FAR too often ... tired of it ! Going this route now ... Black Hole .... Here We Come !!!!!

    YELP SHORT ANSWER: a great visit, yes if you're out shopping for anything drop in this REI location…read moreand enjoy. LOCATION: simple to find off the 111 in PD and tons of parking usually with a lot of cars. Choose your time. FACILITY: as a long time member, 4 decades, this exterior is nothing special compared to other locations in the PNW but you get to work with what you have when it comes to picking buildings. The interior however is great. Open and easy to find everything. STAFF: as with most of all REI location, the staff are all helpful and knowledgeable about their products. Fern in the cycling department was so incredibly helpful and got my wheels serviced while we shopped for a tent on their Labour Day Sale. Can't say enough good things about our first trip to this new location, other than this was one of the best shopping experiences we've had in this area in a long time. OVERALL VALUE: it is not cheap, never has been but if you're looking for a deal, learn about their sales and how to best use your co-op dollars. REI provides excellent quality items, professional level advice, and a fair price. TIP: ask questions, shop in the store, online, or online at their outlet store. Items can be delivered to the store or to your home.

    Came in to purchase a long gun and boy were they helpful and explained why prices are sometimes all…read moreover the place. Anyways, thank you for the great service and all the help. Prices on ammo, guns and fishing are exceptionally competitive and I mean really really competitive!

    Came in ready to buy an echelon and some ammo. It's my go to place, remember? They always have good…read moredeals for ammo. Naturally, the guys at the counter were busy so I looked through the glass display to see if they have the echelon in stock. Sure enough, they have it. I then check their ammo selection so I can tell him exactly what I want. So I pull a number then hop in the ammo line. Shortly after, a lady comes up to the counter and waited a couple minutes. When she realized she needed to be in another line for ammo, she then goes behind me in line. Then when the clerk was ready to take the next person, he just assumes that the lady that was behind me was next or waited the longest. He says to her "you're next, I can help you". So I walked out. I'm not in the mood to try to advocate myself when I'm visibly next in line, and actively watched the lady walk up to the counter. There's other places such as Turner's and Ammo Bros wouldn't just assume and ignore someone standing in front of them. I understand the process itself takes a little bit of time, but skipping a person that's next in line is not what I'm willing to wait for, let alone be ignored. I'd rather go out of my way (Turners and Ammo Bros) if it means I at least get acknowledged that I'm there. Not coming back anytime soon.
