    Hands down the best escape rooms out there! We were only in Pigeon Forge 3 days and did two of the rooms, they were flawless. First, before the room even begins, the staff is brilliant with their customer service, genuine enthusiasm and easy laughter. Then we get to the rooms! They are perfectly laid out for maximum comfort of small and large groups, the puzzles aren't easy but also aren't impossible and the themes are mastered. Hints, nudges, suggestions and directions, all freely given with the push of a button. The game master is in tune with you and your direction throughout the game, offering gentle hints or big hints if you need them. We found the gold in Gold Rush (escaped) and set time straight (escaped) in Timeliner. We would have loved to do a few others but had to hit the road. We'll be back for sure and will seek other Escape Game locations along the way!

    The Escape Game in Pigeon Forge ( The Island ) is an AMAZING Place.. Christina Welcomed us in and got us into the Prison Break Escape. We were able to complete the room ( with some help) I would highly recommend bringing your family or coworkers to this location.. parking is great and plenty of options for a meal after...

    We did not escape!!!  It was hard, but fun!

    Another weekend in Cherokee and our excursion for this trip was down to Pigeon Forge for an attempt at an escape room. Two of us had never been, one had. I find the concept very clever and knew I would have a good time no matter what the results ended up. We chose the Heist as our room. It was based on retrieving a stolen piece of art and was rated 8/10 in difficulty. We figured out a lot on our own, but being able to get the clues from the employee working there was super helpful. We definitely over thought a few things but in the end the escape room won and we did not get out in our hour time frame!! This is something I'd definitely be willing to take on again!!!

    We did "depths" I think this was by far my favorite escape game. The staff were so friendly. The gentleman that checked us in stayed busy and answered everyone's questions when they came in. We were there on 6/12/25 at 3:15. The young lady that walked us to the room stayed in character and Craig walked us out. All of the staff were very nice and super helpful. We did escape with 2 seconds left however we did receive 5 hints, my brain was hurting by the end. The 1 st room we did Great, 20 minutes with no hints. The 2nd room we struggled and used 4 hints, the last room we used 1 hint. It was just 3 of us but we all had a great time.

    This was located in The Island. We had to reserve a time for the next day to get in an escape game play. This location be prepared to wait . Very busy . Zac was our staff helper , He was awesome. Very available and helpful with all the clues we needed. We picked Prison Break . Very hard but my team got out. Clues very hard and you will definitely need someone who thinks outside the box . This one takes input from everybody. All help is needed .

    Courtney and Justin were awesome Game Masters! We did Classified because we've never seen it before at other locations. TEG is always great with a set design and story. I love all of their themes because they are very immersive. We got out with 20 minutes left and they let us take great photos with props. They mentioned a photo contest and we were very committed! Since we have done every room before, we took photos in multiple rooms and really committed to the atmosphere. We had the best time because of their hospitality and experience. They really are great experience hosts and love what they do. They even made us custom stickers for our escape room passports! They went above and beyond for us and that is what TEG is all about. Thank you guys for an amazing experience and I'm sure we will be back to say hello in the future!

    Absolutely amazing! Zoey was fantastic and the whole experience was top tier. We were celebrating my birthday and they decorated and made me a card. We are planning our next trip

    This was our first time trying this and our daughter picked the Prison Break game which was the hardest level. We were not confident going into this game but were paired with another family and we ESCAPED after working together! It was really fun and a great experience!! We all had a lot of fun!

    See all

    I've done a few escape rooms in the past and this one is top notch. We did the cellar room and had…read moreso much fun. It was a bit stressful getting started because half our party wasn't on time and we almost had to enter without them. Luckily, the owner was cool and really pushed the limit on our time. Luckily them made it in the nic of time. We went for a bachelor party with a group of eight guys who mostly didn't know each other and half of whom had never done an escape. To be honest, a couple of us may have been a little drunk when we arrived. Needless to say, we didn't escape on time... haha. Definitely arrive early. The entrance is across from Shamrocks on the side street. You walk down a set of stairs to get to the desk. First you fill out waivers etc... and then the game master gets things started. I love the scary aspects of the room and you can tell they put a lot of thought into the clues and building the room. I would definitely reccomend them based on what I've seen so far.

    They only clean the rooms after every other game. They didn't make anyone wear masks and would not…read morerefund us after the people we were locked in a room with for an hour would not wear a mask. They compared it to a broadways show and said they were non refundable.... anyways. Room sucked too. I've done four escape games in the past two months and this one was the worst. Room didn't flow. We got out. But it just didn't really seem to be well thought out.

    Wow. Pricey, but great experience. Should be some sweet memories for the kids - and us!!…read more Special shout-out to Chad (no idea about last name), who was taking tickets before we got on the lift. Super nice guy - professional and helpful (good tips) - friendly and welcoming. Sending us off with a God bless was a nice touch, although I could see that sounding funny to some folks, ha ha. (Dear God, please watch over us on this chair lift...) It was the kids' 1st time on a chair lift / ski lift, and it was a good one. Had to go open-air. No one freaked out. They even took selfies together on it. So sweet. Great views on the way down! Lift was rebuilt in... 2019 (?) after wildfires destroyed it, but they maintained a great old-school feel. Now! To the top. The SkyBridge. THE SKYBRIDGE. WOW. So so cool. Longest suspension bridge in North America, apparently. It was awesome, complete with grating and plexiglass at the middle. Amazing views. A little scary, sure, but so cool. Was stoked the kids wanted to walk across it multiple times. The trails up top are better than I expected. Not top tier Smokies trails, but better than expected. And more good views. Tulip Tower was cool, too. The overall SkyPark area was also beautifully landscaped. REALLY impressive - beautiful. Highly recommended.

    The Gatlinburg SkyPark is a good experience worth buying tickets for. The ride up was great with…read morenice views of the town (the seats fit up to 3 people) and the bridge had good views of the mountains, and for the thrill seekers had a part that was transparent glass. At the other end of the bridge there is a drink and burger place and seats with a view. Though you might wonder why isn't this review a 5 star review. It's because the workers print out photos of you on the ride up and wait for you at the top asking you to buy them. They also take a photo of you before the ride, knocking the background out, putting it on a picture of the bridge and expecting 36 bucks for it. If you say no it goes in the trash which is a big waste. Now my family's face is shredded like iceberg lettuce and tossed into a dumpster somewhere in Gatlinburg (probably owned by Blake Shelton) The prices of the food were good, though just a notice the "frozen lemonade" is STRAWBERRY lemonade and is pre packaged.

I was disappointed we weren't informed of this before purchasing. Our dinner at Clifftop restaurant was sub-par. I'm leaving this review at 4 stars since I know many people rave about the sky walk (we weren't able to see this so I'm unsure) and the kids play area was super fun. My kids could have played for hours. It's multiple levels and really large. I felt that staff could have been more present in the children's area though. They were just hanging out and talking and not helping to keep the slide area safe. While we were there a parent lost her child and no staff was present anywhere. That was discouraging. It's beautiful here. So many beautiful views. Entertainment, and lots of nice places to sit and relax. We even had a chance to see a black bear.

Another guest commented that they were continued to bring guests up on the gondola until there was a lightening strike some distance away. There was no clear communication to guests. They were taking people down in 3 small buses on a one-lane road. Beyond the lack of management and any sort of emergency plan to evacuate several hundred, if not more, people. The entire operation is a giant cash grab. In order to do most of the activities, an additional fee is required. As the storm moved in, they were still taking people's money. Definitely there are better options for families in the Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge areas that are more reasonable in costs and better value. Wanted to have a good time. Left disappointed. No plans to come back. Not how I expected to be treated as a paying customer. Young employees not trained to respond to the situation. Just disappointing the unsafe conditions they put every family that was that was at Anakeeesta in. Just unprepared and unacceptable. There are other situations that require emergency responses, and I highly doubt they are prepared to respond.
