Amusement Park Hidden in the Woods 

Admin Visser hear, hear

Admin Visser - Well said 👏

I agree

I agree! Great video... not overly narrated. There is beauty in “space”

Admin Visser No offense to some people.. but some people act as if it’s a privilege to hear them speak lol. They don’t come up for air and take way too long to get to the purpose of the video. They also tend to post way too many videos. I think it comes from overall compulsion... Anyhow, that’s not the case with this awesome channel.

There was quite a few videos on this place on RU-vid. I looked them up. My father use to work there as a teenager. I was there once myself, don't remember much. It was still open. But not a lot left to it by then. That would have been sometime in the 70's.

Wow it's just so hard to do a Google search I am fighting the footage online. Give me a f****** break probably took the guy less than 5 minutes. Go and do a Google search for this for this area and you will find all the same pictures and more.

@assblood this coming from someone who calls their Channel ass blood. I'm sorry if I made fun of your little Hobby that's remind you of your childhood when you used to hide something and then make a treasure map for your friends to find LOL.. you're telling me to get a life when you're interested and put somebody down who is simply giving their opinion. Yeah it's just so exciting to waste a bunch of gas money driving to certain coordinates. Get out of the car walk not more then at the most a mile. Most of them are not very even far off the road. Then go find these spots where you really see nothing more then a ledger or something and maybe some bottles of water and some snacks. You sign your name saying that you've been there and what time. Maybe leave some snacks of your own or a little something and then off to the next. This is just so f****** fun if you were a little kid. Cuz my son got interested in this until we went on a road trip to find these. After about finding three pretty close together in Washington State. In western Washington. My son was completely bored with it and we turn the road trip into something completely different. In the 90s my band used to tour all around the United States and other countries. One of my bandmates used to subscribe to this magazine. In this magazine it told us of many spots throughout the u.s. that had these Geo casting coordinates. Same thing happened. We stopped at two or three of them saw how f****** lame they were and discontinued going to any more. I tried to tell my son when he has asked to do this later. That it was completely stupid and basically a waste of time. That my seven-year-old son likes finding things. So of course being the cool father that I am and knowing this was completely a waste of time. We took off to go find these only for him who is 7 years old. To realize himself that this was completely boring and a waste of time. By this time we were near the ocean in Westport in Washington State. So we just chartered a fishing boat and went fishing instead and had so much more fun. What it cost to go on that fishing boat I would have paid twice as much going to all the spots that my son wanted to go to in Washington and Oregon to find these stupid Geo casting sites. So I'm sorry that I put down your stupid little Hobby. It probably is fun and interesting for the brain dead like you. It must be so exciting for you to go to these spots & your name to The Ledger. Oh but you're saying my life is shity. I do things like hang glide and skydive. We ride motorcycles and jet skis and snowmobiles in the winter time. I dive for the local sheriff's department and now have taught my son. like this summer me and my son went to the Caribbean and we Scuba dived looking at ships that sunk hundreds of years ago. so you have fun with your life driving to these stupid places barely off the road. only to find this Geo casting spot simply to basically sign your name saying you've been there. wow that sounds so much more funner and so much more of a life then hang gliding or skydiving or scuba diving to a sunken pirate ship that's hundreds of years old. so you continue with your awesome Adventures Geo casting. and I will stick with my shity boring life LOL

@assblood you know you read every word. Also I'm really sorry you have such a small mind that you don't realize that there's something like talk-to-text feature. And also maybe someone like you who is as slow as you are using one finger it might take you 30 minutes to type all that. But someone like me on a computer that would take no more than a few minutes maybe 5 minutes tops using my phone. But I hate to disappoint you. But just like when I wrote this comment and just like I wrote the last comment I was simply using a talk-to-text feature that most Samsung or Apple phones have. And again you know you read every damn word just like you're going to read every word of this. If you didn't bother to read everything you wouldn't have bothered to reply. That's because you know my comment got to you. And I'm sure this won't be the end of it I bet you'll come back with some other moronic statement

@assblood and also you said that I'm beneath you intellectually, socially, and economically.. then you don't even use punctuation correctly and you run on your sentences. But you're such an intellect aren't you. Then why you just saying that really everybody else who reads this how much a moron you really are.

It was a great place. The dance hall building was a beautiful old building that should still be standing and used today. It was a great place.

Nature will overtake anything man has built if not not maintained.

It’s been 40 years, but looks like it’s been untouched for 100. Nature is amazing

But what’s more amazing is he said parts of it had been cleared 20 years ago when the property was bought.

@@99ramairgt they actually cleared all the trees in this property back in 2013 this is only 6 years of growth.

@@jeremyrouth557 not 20 more like 6 years.

When I was a kid I lived in Berea and my Aunt and Uncle lived in Chippewa. I've had thoughts of buying a place there.

RayinPa U.S.A. Thank you for citing the documentary, I was unaware. Tremendously enjoyed watching it.

I'm taking a shovel, will let you know what is by the rollercoaster...just kidding

@Fuzzy Butkus this is Chippewa lake get a grip

@@NoirAngel921 he's there

@Fuzzy Butkus its been closed since the late 80's /early 90's

Wow. So, he is supposedly still buried out there ?

@@shaunclifton5281 no he got up and left a couple weeks ago. Needed a new scene.

@@bradenmyers151 Familes DO change grave locations if there are any descendants left.

@@shaunclifton5281 I know man, I was just messing around with you. If I upset you, I apologize.

@@bradenmyers151 Dude, you just made me laugh so hard. 😂👏👏👏

We used to go there too but why was it abandoned like that and blighted? When Geauga Lake closed they sold practically everything but did not leave the rest to rust away. I heard Chippewa Lake was sold to a developer & new homes were built there but obviously that was wrong information. Too bad they didn't make it a wildlife preserve or park.

Cbus here. What was this place called??

@@Julzy20032000 The park in the video was Chippewa Lake Park

@@halapino5473 was it close to the old Geaga Lake Waterpark?

Chippewa Lake was probably 40 or 50 miles southwest of Geauga Lake

The best thing in this comment is that you’ve only taken one selfie, bless you!!

It was fun to explore as a kid, it was really fun before the ballroom fire, did you explore the old Beach house?

Yes....and the earth will be healed!

SUE BENNETT Well, except for the near permanent pollution. But eventually that will go away too.

4/10/20 And after a few weeks of being told to stay at home... The air is clearer. The animals are alive and well. Humans ARE the problem on Mother Earth.

well guess what WE AINT FUCKING LEAVIN

@@supercoolyguy And you perhaps learn what personal responsibility is! 😂😂

It was great to be a kid wasn't it?

I went to conneaut lake Park in the late 60s.still in operation.

Thanks Susan, much appreciated

I'm so happy to tell ya!

Did you go and visit? I wish there was more abandoned stuff near my town, I'd be all over it lol

For me its something that was a big part of my childhood and all the smaller ones are going away .

Because you realize that this place REALLY MEANT SOMETHING NICE FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE for a very long time...and that it just...slowly vanished...like all of us will one day

I think they're beautiful

Memories of happiness.

Because your childhood is gone forevermore, and slowly, the places you had some of the best times of your life will disappear, too.

I was thinking the same thing. Absolutely horrible amount of poison ivy in there. "Hairy rope, don't be a dope".
