So much fun! Jeff was our puzzle master and made the game super fun for us. The five of us just barely missed getting out of the room. For reference we had 3 adults and 2 teens. Highly recommend!! read more

Extremely fun escape house. We opted for the hardest one which is the abandoned mine. We didn't escape but had a great time. Very affordable and fun for the whole family. Our host gave free at clues. I highly recommend this place. read more

Fun game! It took a lot of quick thinking and 20 clues to get out! Lol. Typical for my sister and I to start with the most challenging room. The gamemaster was EXCELLENT. She recognized we were struggling from the first puzzle and helped us seamlessly through. read more

Definitely had a good time. This was a date night in which i got to do an activity with my GF and her two teenage daughters. We had a blast but I must admit the kids did most of the problem solving. I found out later we had picked the most difficult scenario. If this is your first time I'd recommend an easier scenario because this was a definite brain teaser. Staff was friendly and helpful. read more

My group escaped the room but just under the wire. I was worried that it would be too easy or too hard but it was just right. This is the best place to go for entertainment in this town. The staff was really friendly and put me completely at ease of any worries that I had before I started the puzzle. I AM doing this again. read more

I went yesterday and they paired myself and my two kids up with a random couple, if I had known there were going to do that, I would have cancelled, don't want to pay $80 for that experience. The woman's phone kept going off and I kid you not, she answered it and talked to her mom during a timed event! and then the guy was all over the place, tough to do teamwork like that! Probably a neat experience if it's just you, but make sure u don't have to be set up with random people because u don't know what you will get. read more

History

Established in 2015.

The Escape House was originally known as Epic Escape, and was renamed The Escape House. Unfortunately, it had to close down during the Covid-19 pandemic. The Escape House was bought and reopened by Moose Caper escape games, and has become a favorite Grand Junction activity.

Meet the Business Owner: Jeff and Shanna P.

We moved to Grand Junction in early 2020 to run a local pool league. We brought with us an intense love of escape rooms, which started in 2016. We did not know what to expect when we played our first room, but after escaping with only a few minutes to spare, we KNEW we had to do it again... And again... And again... The Escape House was a family owned and operated business that started in November of 2015 after the previous owners took it upon themselves to bring this fun activity to the Grand Valley. Their daughter and son-in-law managed the business. Family life and COVID had an impact, though, and they chose to close their doors in early 2021. We decided that the valley truly needed the Escape House, though, so we worked with the previous owners to take over starting February 3rd, 2021. We are so excited to be here and can't wait to see what the future holds! Escape House is still family owned and we want to continue the excellent name built by the previous owners over the

She is AMAZING! she is chill, cool, organized, creative, positive, and overall just a badass ninja that will make your life awesome. She came in to plan our wedding a few weeks before, we were so happy and relieved to have her onboard. She connected with all vendors, took care of payments, organized and coordinated the drop offs/pick ups, helped with decor, set up, ceremony rehearsal, coordinated our BBQ and the entire wedding, so we didn't have to be stressed, overall, she pretty much helped with everything including keeping us calm and sane. She is so calm and positive in such stressful situations. If we had a problem, she would find a way to figure it out/find a solution and that was super great!! She is the perfect wedding planner that YOU are looking for. I loved her from the moment we said hi to each other over the phone to the time we said goodbye. We felt so lucky that we found her for our very special day! Thank you for all your help, April! You are a rockstar!

My husband ended up on a horse that would not be directed properly and wanted to go back to the barn- so she started BUCKING him- very scary. The worst part was that the owner took ZERO responsibility for this incident and basically called me a liar. wow - so much for the customer is always right. My husband was so shaken up he did not go on the ride at all and the owner would not refund the ride or even entertain our side of the story saying that since we were 10 min late it was OUR fault! Mind you the place is in the middle of nowhere with no cell or GPS available and spotty signage once you make the turn into the driveway. DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE. **here's an update: they did refund the ride but that was not communicated to me on the hostile phone call I received from the barn - maybe the owner ? Don't know because she did not have the good manners to introduce herself......

I would not recommend this tour for younger kids (under 10) or inexperienced riders. The horses were not well behaved & were hard to control, even the helper got thrown off a hill by her horse, thankfully she didn't hit her head on a rock. I've ridden horses 10+ times & I never felt scared before. My horse Jem was very difficult, she kept trotting every time we went downhill & I almost fell off twice. She also kicked & injured 2 other horses who got too close. I wasn't able to ride with my kids since the horses decided where they wanted to be & the tour guides had a hard time corralling horses when taking a group photo. I would think twice about booking.

We had a blast at Epic Escape Game! All the puzzles and clues are unique and surprising, and you can tell the staff has put a lot of work into crafting an authentic experience. Our escape from "The Hunted" was more challenging than I was expecting...we escaped with only 7 seconds to spare. Escaping from the rooms and figuring out each clue requires a lot of team work and out of the box thinking, making Epic Escape Game a perfect place to take a team, group, or class for a fun team building experience (or a great ice breaker...if you weren't friends before, your sure to come out as such). Grand Junction is always in need of something new and fun, and this place fills that role perfectly. We look forward to our next escape! read more

Great time for my family as we were traveling through Colorado. This was the first time any of us tried something like this. My daughters, age 7 and 13 thought it was so fun! Zach was a great escape master that helped us a lot. About another 15 minutes and we probably would have escaped! Better luck next time. We will definitely come back next year when we make the cross country trip again! Thanks Epic Escape! read more

We took our workplace team to the Escape and we booked all 4 games. It was an amazing team building exercise. Out of 18 people, only 2 of us had done it before and staff are raving about it. Definitely a worthwhile experience if you are looking to get people out of their comfort zones, build problem solving skills and give them something that builds retention and job satisfaction. read more
