    My sisters and I had an amazing time at 601 Escape Rooms. We went to the prison break room and made the escape. Our game master was “Tim," and he was amazing. We will definitely be doing another room soon. Thanks, Tim, for working with us and being so nice.

    Fun, challenging, and great hints from our friendly ghost/game master Ella! My family does an escape room every year as a tradition, and our first time at this escape room was awesome. Will definitely be back to do all the other rooms :)

    We have been to may escape rooms in the south and we keep coming back to 601. We love the old school comfy vibe and we had a great time in the “escape from the 80s” room last night and Ella was our game master. This is not the first time she has guided us through a room and she is always friendly attentive and helpful. We only have “lost cabin” to accomplish here and we will be sad when we have done them all. Thanks for a great experience.

    My group and I had an awesome time in the 80s themed room! Although the three of us could not escape in time, the puzzles were engaging and led to great “a-ha” moments. Ella was an excellent game master and explained everything clearly to us. I do think that if just one of the puzzles was removed, it would have been the perfect amount of things to solve in an hour. But it’s honestly great losing just so we can take pictures with the funny signs.

    This was our first time at 601 Escape Rooms, but it did not disappoint! The gameplay was challenging, but not impossible, which provided for a thoroughly enjoyable experience! Ella was our game master, and she was so kind and helpful! We will be back to try more rooms!

    We had a group of 4. We tried to escape the 80s and failed. 🤗 But, we had so much fun trying to solve all the clues and puzzles. We almost escaped. We just needed 20 more mins 😉. We absolutely will be returning. Highly recommend people try it out.

    Ella was amazing!!! We tried the Christmas room and it was so much fun!!! Ella was perfect with the clues and she allowed us to figure it out ourselves. I highly recommend checking out 601 Escape Room. We had so much fun!!!

    Ella was amazing! She did such a great job with telling us how to approach things in the beginning. She was a delight, and I'm looking forward to coming back some time!

  • 5/5 Curtis C. 1 year ago on Google
    Me and my family had fun solving the lost cabin escape room. Ella was our game master and would give us hints at the right time and that was good because we probably wouldn't have asked for any. Thanks, Ella, we'll come back and do another next time we're in town.

  • 5/5 Kerri P. 1 year ago on Google
    Ella was so great. We can be a rough group to deal with sometimes but she was fantastic. She explained everything so well and helped us out when we needed it! Thanks to her we #escaped.

  • 5/5 Denise L. 11 months ago on Google
    Thank goodness for Ella’s help! She was so patient with the instructions and gave us some much needed hints. That was a hard room (Lost Cabin), but was also only our second time doing an Escape Room - we’ll get better 😉

  • 5/5 Joseph F. 1 year ago on Google
    WE HAD A BLAST! We did both the cabin and prison escape and they were both very fun. Prison was great as everything tied in together nicely and had a couple of things I have never seen before in an escape room before, and I’ve done many! We escaped with just over 15 minuets left on the clock. The cabin was a bit more challenging, but still extremely fun. The concept was original and exciting. Barely escaped with under 6 minuets on the clock. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

    My boyfriend and I were a 2 man team for the cabin escape room! It was a very enjoyable experience and we were so happy to have Ella assisting us when we needed clues! She gave us a great introduction before starting and gave us clues as needed to finish and escape the room! So glad she was our guide through this! Thanks so much, Ella! We cannot wait to come back and try another room!

    My first time! I loved it! It was so fun and amazing! I'll be back! Thank you Ella for being such a great host!

    Great time and fun original room! Def recommend and ask for Ella! She was an awesome game master, we couldn't have done it without her.

  • 5/5 Caroline K. 1 year ago on Google
    We loved Ella!! She made us feel so comfortable and always provided clues at the perfect times. Would come back!

  • 5/5 JENELLE M. 1 year ago on Google
    We really enjoyed Prison Break. Ella was a great game master. There was an item broke which made it hard to know what to do with it. Other than that, the flow was of the game was perfect!! Prices are a little steep compared to other escape room companies we’ve been to. Will come back next time in town.

  • 5/5 Lisa V. 1 year ago on Google
    We had a great time completing the ‘Trapped in the 80s’ escape room! Ella was an awesome host - she made our experience even better. Highly recommend! Dress in your favorite 80s gear to get into the spirit, and go give it a try.

    This was the first time visiting the escape room. I had no idea what it would be like. The Log Cabin is the room me and my coworkers were in. One of the workers there will give you a back story of the Log Cabin and tell you how to play the game. I thought we had to start in one room and go from room to room but we were in one room for an hour trying to find clues to unlock combination locks to get to another clue. It was difficult for me. You will have to be a thinker and great at solving clues. You don't have to be flexible or in shape. There is a lot of bending and squatting that we had to do. You're basically using your brain. Cameras are in the room and a monitor sitting on the wall for your safety and to help you with the game. You can ask for clues if you get stuck in the game and don't know what to look for next. I felt like I was on the game show THE BIG BROTHER HOUSE when they had to play games inside the house.The Escape Room is spooky though. LOL!! Even though the game was difficult for me but in overall it was enjoyable.

    We had a fantastic time at 601 Escape Rooms. It’s really a gem of Jackson and always worth a visit if you’re in town. Our game master today was Ella and she did a great job of explaining the rules and helping us out when we were really stuck. Overall an absolutely fantastic experience!

    We went with 5 people and did the lost cabin room. We had so much fun. The puzzles were great. We laughed almost all the way through. The guy that started the room for us was amazing. Definitely will be going back!!

  • 5/5 Geoffrey S. 1 year ago on Google
    Ella was great!!! You can tell she really understood the room and was able to give clues when needed yet still let us really think in order to solve the puzzles. She was very sweet, inviting and personable. She definitely made our experience and would love to come visit again because of her.

    The Lost Cabin room was an eclectic and interesting experience to add to our growing list of escape adventures. What independent locations lack in polish, they make up for in unique and fresh mechanics or perspectives. Ella was a bright, cheery, and helpful game master who enhanced our overall experience; while she suggested we were an easy group to work with (few hints), she was essential in clarifying the more challenging aspects of the room. With the caveat that we’re not from this area, we thought the room rate was a little high, especially compared to mainstream chain locations (which you’d think would be the most expensive); perhaps it’s a regional difference and not really detrimental to the experience. Specific to the room, it was a balanced and manageable flow, with only two specific mechanisms that I considered overly complex or confusing (that is, they didn’t make natural sense). The first I would probably call more a matter of creativity or ingenuity on behalf of the guest (you have to think outside the box). Whereas the second I would consider altogether impossible, and I imagine over 90% of groups require the solution to move forward. A final critique is to all independent escape rooms: lock/puzzle association; often, there are half a dozen four-digit number locks, and you spend time randomly punching codes everywhere with no payoff when a lock finally opens. With mild creativity, associate the code with the lock (or the solution to the puzzle). Whether you color code, provide a corresponding icon, or similar, make it more unified and less random so the guest can feel more driven and confident with their solutions. Otherwise, you feel like it’s just a bargain bin of puzzles and locks with no overall connection, story, etc. Bottom line: I enjoyed the room and really would have liked to experience more at their location (which is high enough praise, I hope!). Great job, Ella and 601 Escape Rooms!

    Awesome 👏 experience Operation Shoe String chose a wonderful adventurous place for our parenting camp 2022! This game room was even appropriate for our senior citizens. We got out of the cabin with only .01 second left! 😝

  • 5/5 David W. 2 years ago on Google
    Great stop for an escape room. Parking was limited but we just pulled up by the side door. We were greeted by one of the cutest and most engaging game hosts we have ever encountered. They made a recommendation for a room change based on our experience and travels. We were delighted with our game. The clues and puzzles were challenging enough to make us think and seemed to flow well with the room.
