www.AdamTheWoo.com - In the mountains of Kentucky sits a former pool, beach and nearly dried up river. I was joined by a special guest as I snooped around the property. Enjoy !
I know that place Adam, I use to swim in that pool, Jenny Wiley State Resort Park closed it, and that is an inlet from the lake is all, they let the water down in the winter from the spillway area and raise it back up to summer level in the summer time, then you are able to fish in that area, use to be a miniature golf course there too, but now they use that ramp for launching boats into the lake, loved the video though, was wondering what the swimming pool looked like now, so glad to have seen it after all these years. I do go over to that area in the summer when the water level is up, and fish sometimes. I enjoy all of your videos, very interesting places, travel on!!
very cool,i learned to float and swim (falf assed) as a kid. so sad to see it gone. that water was deep at that time,it was a little beach and so pretty back then.i live n paintsville.thanks for the vid adam.a ride down memory lane.
Another amazing find! Thanks for sharing with the world Mr Woo. Reminds me of an outdoor pool I used to go as a kid, it shut down, rotted away, was then turned into a nature area then guess what - yep they built houses on it!
Another job well done. And it always helps to have a cute friend at your side. You must have buddies all over the country, cuz you get alot of them involved.
Crazy how fallen apart stuff gets just over 8 years of being left alone. Weird how the river dried up. Then again it might have got diverted to another area by a local dam perhaps. Great video Adam thanks for sharing.
Just got a big time cold and this sorta made me feel better seeing how nice the weather was for you on your trip, all kinds of snow here and watching this I almost felt like I was there and not here. Rock on , best wishes from East Coast Canada.
KENTUCKY! WOOO! Hey, we got an abandoned old motel down here in Hopkinsville... problem is its right on the boulevard... might be tricky. Love this as usual, Adam! And love that youre in KY here!
I love your awesome videos and I have been here alot growing up.. But have not been here since 8 years ago.. and I had no idea it had ran out of funds for this place til you posted this video.. it is so sad cause, it used to be full of fun and a great fishing location... and there were like 200 ducks all the time there threw the summer.. Kentucky has really been hit hard for the last 10 years on loosing funds for recreational places... it is so sad to find this out.. It used to be pretty awesome and full of people all the time as I was growing up..
I cant even imagine how many people would come in during its heyday on a hot summer day. Must of closed because of the river drying up? Kinda reminds me of the Elderado springs pool up here in Boulder,CO which is 100 years old.
How'd you get so awesome? You got what some would call natural charisma..My names actually Mike..but "I wanna be like Adam....like Adam"...You've turned me into an Adam addict...great video..love the humor, love the cool places you show us..I don't really find much of anything to critisize in your videos... I'd like to know how you became as successful as you have here on youtube....thats why I watch and re-watch your videos, trying to figure out what elements I could impliment in future videos
awsome video! where in KY were you? That concrete thing not near water was most likely where a drain empties out,i live in KY and have seen those.Keep up the great work, love the videos! Ducks are camera shy,lol, bring bread next time,they will be your new best friends.
man these videos of yours are awesome! it has taken me a while but i think i've seen 80% of them so far. have you ever considered traveling to Centralia?
What area of Kentucky is that? It looks an awfully lot like the area where my wife and I went camping back in '87. I remember at the time thinking it was strange for a small community to have such a nice community pool. If memory serves the area we went camping in was somewhere just south of Cincinnati.
The Himlerville mansion is old and been abandoned for years.. It is at the beginning of the hollow of Elk Creek were my mother law lives at right now.. if you ever come here please send me a FB message to Celina Booth that you are gonna make the video so i can watch it... thanks and take care
Strange that this pool is in such a remote area - appears to be anyway. Looks like the marshy area on the ground was a reservoir of some kind. There are two reservoirs not too far from where I live, one of them is a tourist attraction and nature preserve. You can even go on boat rides (Manasquan Reservoir). I go there quite often to take nature pics. That's what leads me to believe that the barely wet area on the ground there used to be a reservoir. Shame that it was left to decay
Her Wooster! You're an O-riginal!...Keep up the FANTASTIC STUFF! ...You are in the few who LOVE what they do! !! He's always bringin' somethin ' new... THE LIVIN' LEGEND- ADAM THE WOO!!!!! I've subbed. .. God bless, Jim "Nat King " Currie
the stairs that lead no where kind of look like the other stairs. maybe that was a renovation or something that resulted in the stairs that lead to nothing. either way this place is pretty awesome
You're standing on the dock...you hear a loud noise coming from afar. You have your back turned so you're facing downstream, when you quickly realize said loud noise is coming from behind you...You turn to see a flash flood heading right towards yo! You tie yourself to one of the boat ties to keep from falling into the raging river. The flooding stops. You untie yourself from the boat tie and jump into the water. From that point on, all is right back in the hills of Kentucky. The end.
It was Vids like this that I discovered Adam The Woo in the first place = watching Dan Bells Abandoned Mall vids. Creepy Abandoned Places. Questions of How & Why and what was.....However, those Ducks laughing at the failure on mankind is too much to take ~ Someone needs to teach them some manners.
Lmao. Awesome job Amanda.. Great choice of clothing. Seems like it was a nice sunny day in Kentucky. Sorry Adam. I am kinda partial to redheads.. :) You did a good job as well. Lol. Ya'll have a good one.
These vids would be a lot more interesting if there was more information about the places either in the video or the description. Otherwise, Adam, great job.

amazing how fast nature starts to degrade unmaintained structures
Adam she was absolutely adorable I really think you should ask her to stay as your 'second'
Yeah the sunglasses do look better on her. :)
I live in Kentucky!
Did I miss it, What was this place called? Love your videos!!!
It's amazing how much can happen after only 8 yrs of disuse.

The parking lot is in good shape. Must have been recent that they closed it.
Adam expanding his redhead collection.
Came here for the urban exploration, staying for the paddling.
the stairs that lead no where kind of look like the other stairs. maybe that was a renovation or something that resulted in the stairs that lead to nothing. either way this place is pretty awesome

seems like adams recent video's are effected with an comment posting error, but older ones don't seem to be effected.
These vids would be a lot more interesting if there was more information about the places either in the video or the description. Otherwise, Adam, great job.
I'd skate the fuck outta that spot.
Where's ginger!?
Kentucky where the horses are beautiful and the women are fast
