My family booked the Mysterious Room, a jewel heist theme, for my (adult) son’s birthday. We are real game players and love treasure hunts etc. We have done some escape rooms before and thought it might be too easy. It was not, the clues are clever and although we did it, we used some of our “help clues” via the walkie talkie. The room was authentically decorated with some unexpected surprises. Also, it was a really hot day outside and I worried that it might be a bit stifling but the air conditioning was just right and the atmosphere very comfortable. Our host was really friendly and got into the spirit of things when giving us the introduction. We turned up 15 minutes early as requested and you really need to do that so that you get the introduction and you’re not feeling rushed at the beginning. We really enjoyed our visit and will definitely return to try one of the other rooms. Thanks guys for a great time and a fun way to spend the afternoon! PS. In my review I put that it was suitable for all ages but it’s not really suitable for toddlers or very young children.

Oh my goodness, we LOVED our experience at Dead Broke Farm!! My daughter (age 11) came for a week of summer camp, and she has enjoyed it so much! Everyone at the farm has been so kind and encouraging, and this was a big deal because my daughter had never been on a horse before. She was instantly at ease, and she has loved every minute of it. Today is the last day of camp, and my daughter is truly sad to see it come to an end. This will DEFINITELY become an annual tradition!
