My friend and I visited from out of town on an escape room trip. We visited Paranoia and completed two rooms, Wonderland and Witch Hunter. Both rooms were very immersive and the puzzles were awesome. Huge shoutout to TJ, who was one of the best game masters we’ve had. He was very patient with our team and made the whole experience great!

Buford Dam is a very cool place to visit! The dam itself is amazing. Lots of history during construction. You have a fabulous view of the Chattahoochee River and Lake Lanier at the same time as you are crossing the dam. It's a good place to take visitors and pictures with nice back drops. During Winter months you can see the big Christmas tree all lit up at Lake Lanier Islands Nights of Lights. If your into camping check this area out as well as there are some really nice campsites.
