What is the Minimum Age to Throw Axes?Overall, there is a minimum age of 12 years old, of course this requires a parent/guardian to sign all necessary waiver requirements as well. The adult must stay with the party during the entire visit. Otherwise you must be 18 years or older to throw axes. NOTE: We reserve the right to deny anyone whom we feel cannot throw an axe safely at our discretion. Safety is #1!!!
-
Is Axe Throwing Safe?Absolutely, although please understand that these are axes. We require everyone to be responsible people! We teach and require only safe throwing methods within a controlled environment. Each of our lanes are completely enclosed, so even if the axe bounces off there is no ricochet into bystanders, etc. Our lane coaches will help guide you how to hold, aim, throw an axe from the beginning to end of your experience. They are ‘axeceptional’ !! We reserve the right to deny anyone whom we feel cannot safely throw an axe. Safety is #1 !!!!

Cancellation and Refund PoliciesDo you take cancellations or offer refunds Unfortunately no. Just like movies, concerts, haunted houses, sports and other ticketed events, we are unable to give a refund -- but we can reschedule your booking with adequate notice! Requests must be handled a minimum of 24 hours before your scheduled event. When you reserve a spot it is yours and we are unable to rent it out to someone else if you fail to make it. If you would like to reschedule, the 24 hour notice gives us time to try to fill your spot.
-
Can I Fill Out My Waiver Form Ahead of Time?YES! We strongly encourage everyone to fill out the mandatory form ahead of time online. THE FORM IS RIGHT HERE 😊
-
Is My Experience Private?Yes. All escape rooms and axe lanes are private. We will not put you with another group.
-
Is This Fun?Absolutely - Live Escape Rooms are exploding all over the globe. There is no denying the growth and excitement that is being generated by this exhilarating and mentally challenging activity. Consider doing a axe throwing and escape room combo. Please email us at info@westbendaxeandescape.com If you are looking for something to do with friends, family or co-workers this is for you! This is where teams build.
-
What ages can participate in the escape room?We like to say our escape rooms are for people ages 8 to 80, and older! But due to the complexity of the puzzles, we suggest being at least 8 or older. And for those on the younger side, we recommended that the escape game be played with family, where the adults can help the younger ones solve the riddles. Escape rooms work for a large age range because they encourage teamwork, communication, and critical thinking skills, skills everyone can use.
