Another great room here! So immersive and the sets were great! This room has a slow start and you have to be patient, but it escalates after that. Definitely a good time. Another one I would highly recommend.

Totally immersive. It's has multiple rooms and not a detail was spared. It's like walking into a movie. And be warned other escape room places will pale in comparison.

The Lakehouse at The Sanctuary Escape is a fantastic game. Hollywood level set design and cinematics, a different and completely cohesive story, and a great puzzle mix make this an absolute must do. Story beats were on point, non disruptive and concise. Fun reveals had us guessing and character solo moments were executed to the highest degree. Varied and well constructed puzzles. One puzzle I felt could be improved with player feedback, but otherwise this is a must play game for any enthusiast. We flew in from California just to play this game, and I would do it again in a heartbeat. The Sanctuary Escape has created something truly special here, and I cannot wait see what they cook up next.

Fantastic escape room - the puzzles are engaging and creative. Best in class theming. There were times when the story felt like it was dragging but for the most part excellent. 9/10.
