They do a great job making great rooms and helping you have a great experience but where I have an issue is the design of the room puzzles themselves. The rooms are very linear. I don't want to give anything away but there is usually one puzzle to solve at a time.

The Lake Murray Dam Walkway is a walking pathway is directly across the top of the Dreher Shoals Dam along S.C. Highway 6. It’s a popular place for walking and jogging. The distance is 1.7 miles each way for a total walk of 3.4 miles. The walkway offers spectacular views of Lake Murray and even the downtown Columbia skyline 11 miles away. This pathway was completed after the construction of the new backup dam at Dreher Shoals Dam on Lake Murray (in 2005) and with the widening of S.C. Highway 6 across the top of the dam (in 2007). If you walk on a hot day, be sure to take a cap or hat, sunglasses and water.

Hampton Street Vineyard is one of my favorite places to eat lunch when I visit Columbia. I get the salmon every time I come here and it’s always perfectly cooked and well seasoned. I like having the option to sit outside and the service is always great!

What a cool place! It’s completely family friendly! And dog friendly too. There’s a small indoor bar area, a covered porch that can be used for private events, a larger covered area,and a huge grassy area with picnic tables and space for Cornhole. One of the coolest features is the former grain silo turned into a stairwell that leads up to a bridge to a rooftop bar that has the loveliest view of Williams Brice Stadium. The rooftop bar is limited to 21 and up.

Bierkeller is one of the best kept secrets of Columbia! Driving into the Canal-side is reminiscent of many narrow and tree-lined European streets. When you arrive, Bierkeller, it’s a gorgeous wide-open, riverfront courtyard with ample seating, inside and out. Get ready for the best part: A truly *authentic* experience: from the best Bier you can taste, order taking (get ready for “how” to order :), and incredible food, with great hospitality.
