      Exploring with Rick & Bekah Probably owned by an older couple who's children didn't want to continue with the business. Updating it alone would cost a fortune. Wonder if they hand a visitor register, How sad.

    One of the best videos I've EVER seen. All the rooms look like you could just check in. It does appear that someone is taking good care of everything, but wouldn't you think they would want to sell the furniture? I would love to be able to take a walk through there. Great job!

      Not squatters. It’s not abandoned. Somebody owns it and somebody is paying the electricity bill. It’s unused as a resort, sure, but not ABANDONED. It’s definitely not smart for these people to be wandering around someone’s property.

    I have stayed in resorts in upstate NY as of just a few years ago, 2013 to be exact, and believe it or not there are many places lodging wise that are still stuck in the 70s and 80s, and I have actually have spoken to a few folk from the areas and they say that is all by design they like to keep it retro, either that or there just cheap, but I did stay in a Clarion Resort in Lake George NY and it was defiantly not updated in 35 to 40 years just kept clean so it is very possible this place could have officially just closed 10to 15 years ago

    I am reading through these comments and so many of you are saying this is place is not abandoned. I guess so many don't know what the word abandoned means.
    To cross check this, I did google it to ensure that I was right before I made my comment .
    This place is certainly abandoned. Regardless of power accessing this building. Abandoned meaning …. left , unused, forsaken, deserted, cast aside..... so it definitely is abandoned.
    Every place has an owner, but it they choose not to use it.....means it has been left abandoned.
    Perhaps one day he will either rip it down or refurbish it.
    Perhaps it was left in a will and the new owner doesn't have money for maintenance or doesn't live in the state.
    As for people saying there are no cob webs or dust. If you notice its mainly the lower floors that are more preserved than the top floors.
    Notice that when they got higher the water damage and rot was far worse.
    This being anything closer to the roof would be damaged as the roof wears away.
    If a place is sealed and closed , there is no way that dust can come in.
    I feel the owners come to check on the place sporadically, ensuring minimal maintenance is done, clearing of grassed areas and lighting preventing vandalism etc.…. thus explaining the toilet cleaner on the table.... they may clean the toilet so they can use it while there.
    For those people who are being negative about this video..... saying they are trespassing etc.….. why on earth do you even bother watching it?
    Either this video or any other on abandoned buildings?
    Its about the thrill and entertainment for us who do watch them. Rick and Bekah did not go in there and trash or be disrespectful in anyway to this building. They gave us some great entertainment and I appreciated their time to do this.
    So all you fun police, get of this computer and stop being keyboard warriors and do something else that you find entertaining. Leave us who appreciate this kind of entertainment to continue watching these amazing videos without reading your drivel.

The Acer54E monitor seems to be from the mid to late 90s. There woulda been a date on it somewhere. It’s seems the place was never only had minor updates from the 70s. I noticed the calendar in your picture said 2003; wow that place woulda looked badly dated back then. Great pictures BTW, do more of those anytime.

  • @gdeangelkick
    @gdeangelkick Před 6 lety +60

    Few things to remark: (1) the power is on because someone at some point knew a guy who knew a guy who worked / used to work for the power company and would climb the pole and hook you up if you put the right amount of cash in his pocket.
    (2) Based on the bus, this is in NY area and you can tell people there were coming from NYC 646. Given the era and some other stuff, this was probably built with mob money, run as a front business, and when the top dog pinched or the losses got to big to run it, they started using it as a parking lot for cars and set someone up there who lived there with their family, they had a baby, and one thing's for sure, they weren't junkies or the place would be completely stripped. (3) That lazy boy wasn't there in the middle of the room to give a speech, it was there to watch somebody... who could easily be buried somewhere on the grounds nearby. (4) Places like this tended to hit the bricks in the 80s and 90s when RICO prosecutions peaked. Around those times it was common for these kinds of resorts to get sold to someone whose dream it was to run a resort, but who didn't really have the resources needed to update a place like this or keep people coming in the door. They would then resort to things like climbing phone poles to turn the cable / electric back on (5) Everything in this place screams Italian but the one tangible piece of evidence I see in the clip says Irish.
    You don't need to run a VIN check, you need to go to the recorders officer (online now anyway) and look up who the past 4-5 owners were. Don't post it here though, or someone will go there and strip the place.

    Funny how she keeps saying how horrible the carpets are. In the 70's those color schemes were the hottest trend in decorating.The Trailways bus tells me the location is probably in the Hudson Valley or New York Adirondacks. In the 70's a family would load into the Country Squire station wagon and travel up the NYS Thruway to such a place.
    Being as so many deer are just milling around I would say people are rarely there.

      Close...1977. Two clues: in 1978 Chevy switched from the old notchback rear window seen here to a wrap-around "bubble" window. Combine that with the Corvette flag emblem on the fender and that indicates this is a '77 (prior to '77, the fender badges read "Stingray" in script).
      My guess is that the owner actively visits this place and is using it as storage for classic cars and who knows what else, but the place is clearly no longer suitable as a resort business. If I had this kind of property I'd keep old cars on it, no question.

    • @Dreadnought59
      @Dreadnought59 Před 6 lety +5

      The MG is a Mk IV Midget 'rubber bumper', built from 1975-80 (they were all identical for those six years, just have to look at the VIN plate in the doorjamb to see the production date to determine what year it is), with a 1500cc four with a single Stromberg sidedraft carb. (I had a '75 identical to this one, same color, in the mid-90s), The Mk I, II. & III were chrome bumper cars (1963 to 1974), with 1275cc fours with twin SU sidedraft carbs. The Vette is a '77 with an aftermarket custom front cap with non-hideaway headlamps, and aftermarket hood and rear spoiler (factory rear spoilers weren't available until the '78 model year) and it has the optional factory alloy wheels (RPO YJ8). The Plymouth is a '67 Fury I, with either a 318 2bbl, or a 383 2bbl V-8, and no A/C. The truck is a '28-'31 (no distinguishing characteristics to differentiate one year from another, have to have the serial number to determine which year it is) Model A open cab pick-up with a custom built wooden body. The Ford Thunderbird is a 1965 Landau coupe, 390c.i. V-8 was standard, A/C was optional, could not tell from interior pics in part 2 of video if it had A/C. BTW, this resort is, I believe, in the Adirondack Mountains in upstate NY.

    Cool place, little memo though. This place is not that old, the smoke alarms in the rooms are chirping because they need new batteries. This means the batteries are @ best a year old, so this place was abandoned recently. Still a good find though.😊

    Based on the plywood you can see going up the stairs in one scene and the wooden planks near the car that don’t seem very old I think this place isn’t abandoned rather having some work done on it by the owners, would explain why they keep the toilets clean, as for dust or cobwebs, cobwebs can be taken off with a broom and dust doesn’t gather much if a place is sealed, based on the plastic cover on the tables and more modern chairs compared to the older cloth table cloths and deterioration on the chairs on a room you can clearly see they haven’t worked on, I think you guys found a nice building having work on it. By definition the place isn’t abandoned, so the title is a bit misleading, maybe even clickbait due to that, I think they got permission to enter a great old building and captured stuff we wouldn’t get to see, which is greatly appreciated and I enjoyed the video just because of that, getting to see a place still stuck in time, especially before it’s remodeled completely. That also would explain why they’re not wanting to give out the location as the owners might not want more people bothering them to go in. Even tho the drug run theory and sex trafficking makes it creepier, think it was just a building they had permission to go into, that might be having work being done on it, still great vid and great work.

    Ya all this isn’t something that’s stopped in time. Someone took the time to clean it out hence the large mess outside as well as the lack of dust and the beds being made. Then the cars also most likely belong to someone and they maybe possibly trying to repair it. So someone is living there

    My biggest concern for Urban explorers is that most don't ask permission to enter the property. In most states, there is still a law that allows property owners to shoot trespassers on sight. My fear is that one day I'm going to wake up to read about a Urban Explorer or more gets killed by a land owner for illegal trespass and breaking and entering. You see, these owners have no idea that you are just there to videotape and photograph the place. They may assume you're there to steal or vandlize... or both. As many people do that...many will watch these videos to get ideas on where they can steal or destroy a place that sits empty. Just because a dwelling or building is no longer in use doesn't make it abandoned. It does belong to somebody. It sounds like you are fearful of getting caught, I wonder, why don't you just ask around to find out who owns it and gain permission to go in? Seems like the safest way of doing it. Just my thoughts on the matter. I still enjoy the videos though. Stay safe..

      @Agul2001 Před 6 lety +21

      Your concern is slightly flawed, I believe you are thinking of the Castle Doctrine. But you CANNOT just shoot a trespasser on sight based on the Castle Doctrine. You see, a responsible gun owner must consider the following: 1) Is the property posted? 2) Is the property fenced? 3) Are they threatening the property owner? 4) Is the trespasser a minor? 5) Is the trespasser armed?
      If you answer NO to number 1, 2, 3, and 5, and the property owner just shoot the trespasser without solving the issue first peacefully or through law enforcement agencies, I promise you that property owner will be in a lot of legal problems.
      Google Castle Doctrine and duty to retreat. You could find them in Wiki.

    • @gdeangelkick
      @gdeangelkick Před 6 lety +25

      NOPE... nowhere in the US can you shoot a trespasser on sight. You have to be in fear of great bodily harm to yourself. So if you are in your own house, at night, and find someone stalking through your living room, you can legally shoot on sight... in most states not all. Some you have to try to run away, or retreat to the wall first. But nowhere can you shoot someone legally for being in your abandoned building.

I would love to know the history of these places but appreciate the fact that people are trying to protect these sites by not giving out the information. I love history and am a 60's baby and enjoy the flash backs these give. It's just so disappointing they can't still be in use as a resort or homes for the needy but I'm sure their are good reasons for the way things are. I respect the fact that you leave things in peace. My heart is very saddened by the loss of something so beautiful.

Maybe it's called the "Deer Inn" .It looked like at one time many people had a great time there, all the room had great views. Do you know why it is abandoned, do you have any history at all?

Why don't they clean up and sell all those neat old light fixtures, lamps, dishes, chairs, beds & tables, that neat old hutch, the barn(?) décor on the walls....even some of those neat windows!!??"
