Too bad they don't repair them and rent them out as camping cabins

Is that your IQ or something, 517?
my area code :-)
i love when people think the poor get free handouts.if they did get them all the time then they wouldnt be poor now would they.
HELLO.
I'd like to tell you that you and others like you let me go on so many adventures that I want to be able to do. I'm unable to do these things because I can't walk. These places you go allows me to go with you.
Thank you 😊
Tammi Bransom that’s an awesome comment! God bless!
Thank you and well said, there are a lot os FRUSTRATED disabled, these videos help.
have you ever checked out Bald and Bankrupt? he does a ton of traveling videos all around the world and his channel is super neat
my heart goes out to you. bless you. I couldn't walk for three months due to a bad injury, so I have some idea what that's like. Now I'm 80, alone for years, and know how much these videos help to ease the isolation and frustration. God bless you
Aww 🥰. Bless your heart what a beautiful comment 💞💞💞
At last someone who exp[lains about the area rather than walk around pointing a camera. this man is talented. others should copy.
@emma benedek ikr everyone else just goes along with no information on where or what happened

That would have been a relatively comfortable place to live back in those days. Another fascinating thing about Ky and Tenn is all the old towns that were lost when the TVA built all the damns to make Lake Cumberland and Dale Hollow etc. I’ve been boating down there and it’s weird seeing roads go into the lake and disappear. When we swam down there I’d go under and dive until it started getting dark and cold, I could never be a diver.
So you hate my other channel? Explorations of Fear (which is not based on this Exploration unknown at all) I just found out about this channel today because of Jacob the Carpetbagger.
"Apparently youre not supposed to go in to these, they frown upon it"
Immediately goes inside 😂
😂
Going inside is half the fun, I remember me my wife and two children going inside of all of them I took pictures, we even went in the condemned ones, so sad most of them are gone now, we even went to the other side and found more cabins. So much fun, we really miss this them.
Who are "they"? The boogeyman?
@@montelott8570 lol, the "fed's" say so,so no go.
@@Plank-cn1we they use to be rental cabins, I'm not sure why they are not in use anymore. They are restoring the main ones and tearing down the dilapidated ones.
It always takes you back to a more simpler time, personally I can't stand this world we live in. Technology is nice and all but its destroying our kids. I believe that there will eventually be a mass separation from technology, there will be groups that will want to live without it. Unfortunately the powers that be the $$$$$$$ men will keep pushing for more.
same!
You don't get it, that figures.
Tire repair 30000
why do people always have to bring religion into arguments that religion has no place in. just because some of us prefer logic and science to fairy tales written down by desert herdsman years ago, just leave us alone
+3rd World Garage Please tell me how horrible I am for having a difference in religious view (or lack of). I haven't reacted any different than those whom believe in a deity so please remind me of how horrible I am?
If I was Homeless living on a limited income like SSI or a minimum wage job and came upon a place like this I would inhabited it and try to repair it starting with the roof. . I feel its more of a crime to abandon buildings and let these Buildings go to waste being destroyed by the weather and vandals. Buildings that with a little work could be livable once again. I hate how we waste We disregard people and places like its nothing . all because of money has become more important.

SUPERNOVA ..... if you live in College Station, Tx. like I do, you would have to..... unless you have like 4 other people with minimum wage jobs to help with the bills!! The average rent for a PLAIN and SIMPLE one bedroom apartment here is around $550.00 a month, plus the utilities which are unbelievably ridiculous!! And a 2 bedroom? Forget it......they are around $800.00 a month plus utilities for a plain and simple apartment. The places around here don't want to hire a full time employee making minimum wage......only part time. It's dog eat dog here. There are only rich and poor...no in-betweens to speak of.
Oh crap. I would be living in a ditch on what minimum wage is here in Texas!!
Thats why, unless your rich, only A&M students live there. Move to Bryan, its a lot cheaper. Thats where I live. Utilities out there will kill you.
Right on!! I'm in the process of looking for a place there right now. My mom lives in Benchley, and I wish I could find a place there!! Be Blessed, neighbor!! and THANK YOU!!
Lived in East Tn. Most all of my life. Born and raised. The Smokey Moutains have been my stomping grounds since childhood. Now we take our boys there camping or just a day trip. This is one place we have not been to. I have to make a note to go and check it out. Perhaps this fall we will go.
Tennessee Smokies is one of the most beautiful places i have ever seen. I live in the Arkansas mountains now and have lived half way around the world. The Smokies took my breath away. Thank you for showing us this. I wish so much these places could be restored and respected. Blessings.
I would love to move to America and live in tenneesse 😍
Arkansas has mountains? Where?
Hey John screw the idiots on here making comments about your weight. They are trolls with no life or friends. Keep exploring and congratulations on losing weight. I enjoyed your video.
I second that!
Yeah really people are so shitty
Keyboard warriors with no life always gotta try to cyber bully someone that actually takes action
100% agree thumbs up good work and please keep investigating/exploring these cool places
Absolutely! This culture has disintegrated into cowards with no manners!
@ 11:45 - The tiny log cabin you entered is called a larder. They were made to store all of you food in. The cement flow would draw up the cold from the ground, and keep the inside at a steady cool temperature year round, keeping all of your root vegetables fresh as the day of their picking. The windows are smaller than normal, and up high to help release any type of heat from building up. You might say that they were the first walk-in refrigerator.
My uncle has a Victorian house and they have a larder which they still use. Before electric re-fridgerators, as you say.
He said in one of his videos long ago that it was built for a young daughter. She died before her cabin was built. There are videos of people getting a child evp in it. So idk. Perhaps that was a rumor he heard and just said it in a video.
Thanks for sharing!!
Isn’t it crazy how many RUclipsrs you took here since this video! Same with that prison! You deserve much more recognition and respect for all you’ve always done to help others. 💯✊🏻❤️🙏
OMG!!! I’m blown away by this!!! I had a very strange dream about this exact place and I’ve never ever been to Tennessee or any state near it!!!! Eerie!!!!
Thats crazy lol. We had a spirit from here follow us home. Something not friendly. Somethings up with the place
I had a dream after being in the Smokey Mountains about glassed in viewing houses with big comfy chairs to sit in while watching nature TV happen
I am from the State of WA. In the hills where my grand parents settled (back when land was free for the pioneer settlers), there was a similar situation. The homesteads were spread around in the hills. As a child I hiked into the woods to "pick cone" to sell so I could buy school supplies (even though my foster parents received money for that purpose!). I would often run into an overgrown collapsing structure. One day I found my grand parents old homestead! I was in awe. I began to cry as I remember my mother telling me about tying the horses to the posts near the house or going into the barn not to far away. I saw it all, exactly what she was talking about even though the barn roof lay on the ground, the house walls covered by vines with trees protruding from moss covered cedar boards. The only thing standing was the horse posts. My mother was born in 1909. When she was 9 she need medical attention which was too far away. Her father hiked over the hill because a group of native people lived near the river. He got the medicine man to come to help. That would have been 1918.
I hope those old places in Elkmont can be saved! They have a lot of history. Lewis & Clark first explored WA in 1864.
Thanks for sharing your cool story!
Pick cone... sounds like a fun memory. Not. Sounds like the foster parents said you go pick cone
Thank you for sharing your story. That is interesting. ❤💜
Thank you for Sharing ❤🙏
My father was the last person to be buried in Elkmont in 2013. His name was Brownlee Reagan. The national park system was not allowed to go into any money making business, or so it was ruled. So now I think the cabins will be cleaned up and out. I don't know any change of status of the cabins today but you could get the true story at Sugarlands Visitor Center about 5 miles from there. Yes and that is a fireplace but probably doubled as an oven years ago. Oh and I've known this place all my life (as a Gatlinburg native) and I'm 50 so this is no discovery by a hiker.
Lee Reagan i would like to see it relived, renovated ... nicely
Miss u too much 😘 ❤️
Thank you for sharing your story on this place ♡
Lee Reagan my name is Reecia Reagan Cornett, Reagan maiden name. And my family was suppose to have come from Tennessee area near Gatlinburg. I was always told I was related to John H. Reagan. I wonder if we are related. ?
@@reecia3197 WoW... That Would Be So Awesome If By Chance You Met Ur Long Lost Family Just Because Some1 Wanted The World 2 See Such A Beautiful Place & You Guys Were Able 2 Connect!! Good Luck!! 😊🙂
My best friends family still had a lease on a cabin in Elkmont when I was in jr high and high school, ( I graduated in 1983). We would spend several weekends each year in the mountains. We used to swim in water cold enough to take your breath away! Thanks so much for taking me back!
I hate to see places like this rotting away, I would love to be there nobody to bother me.. lol.. I love nature.
I totally agree it would be so peaceful nobody stuck up you're arse all the time
Me too
your back would be poked by something..
aulianda bahri huh
The Kirby Vacuum people will still find you.
My parents use to rent one of those cabins back in the 1970's-80's. I remember staying in them when I was a child. We went back in 2000 and many were grafettied and caved in. Sad. Lots of memories there.
We found these cabins by mistake while just hiking about twenty years ago, we got to the top and met a couple that were up there on there anniversary they had spend there honeymoon there thirty years ago, and they came every year back there on there Anniversary their family are the ones that had the life time lease, I love going to visit them, that parking lot wasn't there when we found it, my sons go up there to fly fish, kind of sad they all had to leave I wish they would let the people come back it seems like a dream community, mailboxes still standing, do you know why they have never opened the road back up in Cade's cove that goes over to N.C. When we first found the houses they were still in good shape! Thank you for the video!
Niki Scoggins
Niki Scoggins I'll bet the road leading from Cade's Cove to NC isn't opened, because Cade's Cove now only has really one way in and out-I guess to keep everything protected. Have you been there lately? It's basically one big "loop" road...
Niki Scoggins
Niki Scoggins Do you even English? Couldn't even finish reading.
Yamitri2 "Do you even English?" seems to me like you should be asking yourself that question.
Nice video I’ve been going to the smokies for 32 years I remember seeing people living there sitting on there porches there was a dirt road. Back then no parking lot just a lot of mud
Love how the setting flows from Friday the 13th to Children of the Corn to The Cabin in the Woods.
Awesome video.
I can't get over how spacious the homes are, think how comfortable they would be if they were taken care of.
Just stumbled up on this video and was impressed. I remember when "folks with money" rented those cabins back in the 1960s-mid 1980s. Hearing somebody say they were going to be hunting Elkmont told you all you needed to know. It was common knowledge that Elkmont was there and that it had once been a "logging town" so I was amused when two or three years ago I found several videos that, if you didn't know the truth, would leave one to believe that they discovered this "abandoned town" all on their own. Keep up the great work.
FD Mackey Thank you.
THANK YOU for adding this!!! It's guiding me through some tough times. I have 'help' from 'outside sources' due to these videos, so thank you! I hope you're doing ok! Bobbi
My daughter and I visited last month had a wonderful time exploring, thinking about how the families would gather in the rooms and spend time together. Before electronics. I am sure many great times were had in those homes. We actually have a video from the last house you visited that startled us both, the open door in that living room slammed shut. No wind haha Thanks for sharing
Hi do you remember the name of the road around there
@@BlushesSimrealEstate
Elkmont Ghost Town To get there, take US-411 from Gatlinburg to the Sugarlands Visitor Center. Drive toward Cades Cove for about 7 miles until you see a sign for Elkmont Campground. You’ll turn here until you see the ranger station about 4 miles down
the road. Take a left at the sign for Elkmont Nature Trail, where you’ll find a parking lot. The lot is within walking distance of the historic structures in Elkmont.
Little River Road. And Jakes Creek Road
Enjoy
Investing in a more powerful flashlight would enhance our viewing enjoyment by 80%or better! You're not over weight,Sugah,that wood is under strong. ;D.
Kay Cooper I actually went back with a better light the link is in the description.
Kay Cooper Thank you so much for your kind words.
nice place. I am from Panama, but when I go to USA I really like visiting places like this. Once I visited one in Georgia.
Hey im visiting Panama this summer. Any ideas on things to do??
So charming. Love the stone walls everywhere. Someone loved it at one time.
This location is absolutely cool and beautiful. Hi Barbara how are you doing with your family I hope you’re safe from the virus?
I enjoy exploration videos like these where the person is educated on the location and shares it's history and doesn't use a click bait thumbnail to get views. It was cool to learn about this place, thanks for showing it to us 🤗
men are so brave. I will be so scared to go into abandoned houses in such ghost towns. Thank you sir - you have enlightened us all. nobody in america should sleep on the streets due to poverty.
You can see what a lovely little community this once was and could be again. I would love to live there. Those fireplaces!!!!
Hey, good for you, man! You said you have gotten into better shape while also doing something fulfilling for yourself and that also brings joy to others. I can't think of anything much cooler than that. Thanks for the tour of a place I never would have known existed if not for your video!
Awww amazing video. I seen ya in Marks stream and had to see your channel. Amazing town and history. Smashing the like button
It's sad there are locations like this all over the USA abandoned, when we have so many homeless people (many of whom veterans). All these buildings need is some remodeling and TLC, and they would be livable again. Another one that comes to mind is an abandoned subdivision in Dawsonville, Georgia (known as the Greenleaf subdivision) with brand new houses just sitting empty and falling apart, because it was apparently part of some kind of mortgage fraud scheme.
brittanie sidebottom, Maybe the government should sell this property. Another government run housing we don't need.
brittanie sidebottom wow! 😮really? That's so inhumane
brittanie sidebottom
I know of two Indian reservations that would love to include this town into their land
brittanie sidebottom so true, BUT the wars and enemies come first, well our great government. yeah, right.
Subdivisions are so sad. Removed from services, often requiring a car just to take care of simple daily needs.
It is a shame that they let this go down. It would be a awesome place to fix up.
Judith M Yea it would have made great rentals for the National Park.
Judith M agreed...sad
I love this place Elkmont. I've been there many years ago, I went through the houses and I saw the big building. But it was locked up . I love to read old stories about it & see pictures of it when it was in it's hay day.. it was a very special place when it was alive & booming... So many peoples memories... Great Smoky Mountains is an amazing place to go to. I grew up going to those beautiful Mountains. I have been on filed trips there with my son's class,I've been to family reunions in the Smokies, my grandmother & uncle are both buried in a family cemetery in the Wears Valley area of the Smokies. ... The Great Smokey Mountains are very special to me... I Thank you for your videos you make in them. Love em ALL!! ♥️💯🇺🇸👍
Thank you John! Great video about a nearly forgotten place. Cool cabins. 🏚
thank you for sharing, I love seeing historical places. its too bad the government ran off the original owners. they built those cabbins well.
I have a photo of my great grandparents at the 1st cabin from a few years after WW2, about 1950. I'm almost certain that's the cabin. They use to rent one in that area of Tennessee, but the place closed down. The 1st cabin in the video and the photo looks so much alike, but the photo shows the cabin in much better condition, even though it's black & white.
I live not far from where you’re at, and I’m so glad that you are showing off the beauty that is rural Tennessee.
I love hearing stories from the elderly & the history. I'm like tell me more I'm curious. It's like I can't get enough of it. I guess that's why I get along with the elderly so much bc I want to sit down & hear the stories good or bad. I love it, I just can't get enough of it!!! Thanks for showing us this video!! I appreciate it so much!!
You need to carry bigger brighter spot light so we could see more.
Maria Cas Thanks I actually went back there with a bigger light. The link is in the description. Hopefully it is a better experience for you
I think the Great Smokey Mountain National Forest is probably THE MOST RELAXING place I have ever visited in my entire life. It is beyond comprehension that anyone could ever set fire to this gorgeous majestic place. I'm so deeply saddened by the fire. I'm praying for everyone who has suffered loss. Things there will never be the same.
Yes, the Smokey Mountains were the 1st forest I had ever been in and I kept expecting Little Red or the big bad wolf to go running by
What a great video! Thanks for making this place available to everyone.
Jon, I really enjoy your wonderful videos! You are a great tour guide!! Your parents have every right to be proud of you!! Thanks for everything!!! 🙏🏻♥️
thankyou
This video is so amazing it melts up my heart each time I watched this video, hi Charlotte how are you doing with your family I hope you’re safe from the virus?
I suggest you try to find the town dump and look for glass bottles and jars which are highly collectible.
I love your videos has for me and my wife and kids also have a special place in our hearts for Gatlinburg pigeon forge area we have been going there last couple years for vacations. I enjoy watching your videos for the nice information and footage of such and amazing place as well as I can see ur passion and love for that place. it also broke my family's hearts with the wildfires prayers to all the families that lost. we actually just got back home from pigeon forge this past Monday stayed Easter weekend in echota cabin community. thanks again for the videos and I will continue to be a fan
Thank you for sharing! If you ever come to Arkansas, check out the abandon City of Rush in the Northern part of the state. Sad that the homes/structures could not have been preserved. I support Historical Society, because they work hard to preserve out historical properties. Thank you for respecting property, and sharing your knowledge!
Great stuff man thank you for sharing that I am definitely looking forward to your next video of this place it looks really cool.
I have been to Tennessee a few times and it is a beautiful state.
Warm and friendly people.
It is a shame that this area is like it is.
I live in Los Angeles and know that countless people would love an area like this in the woods.
Quiet. peaceful and nice.
It needs to be brought back.
It's real life.
Yes Tennessee is a beautiful state I live there and have lived there my whole life and it is a shame of people setting fires to the smoky Mountains that recently happened not to long ago and not keeping it up I am a beautiful place.
Don't forget evil is everywhere which is sad
George Vreeland Hill yes it's a beautiful state😘
We don’t want any more people from California, yall ruined that state, we don’t want you ruining ours. Middle Tennessee has changed so much in only the last 10 years because of everyone moving there. So if your a radical Californian, stay in California.
Isn’t it funny that now I live in LA/Palisades. I looked at TN as escaping it when I left years ago. I came to CA with a TV, Futon and clothing. Now I live in one of the best locations in the area. Look to the left driving just south of Sunset Blvd, north of Temescal. I’m the last house on that 2nd ridge south of Sunset and could never have imagined such a home in my youth.
I would love to explore abandoned towns.
WhatThe? Paranormal let's do it together
It's beautiful there I'm from newport tn
Any where in Tennessee you can go into the woods and find old houses form the early 1900 it's really cool but you have to be careful and not get caught I lived going hiking and finding abandoned houses and seeing how they lived back then you can find all kinds of cool stuff
WhatThe? Paranormal go to middle of the east coast of New Zealand on the northern island
Yea until a hiding skeleton or banshee grabs and pulls you into one of the houses
Picture all the families enjoying themselves staying in these cabins. They were more simpler and joyous times. It would be great to bring them back.
Hey, thanks for sharing this amazing location. Hope to see more :D
I appreciate all of your concern for my lighting. It was going dead and I have since returned with a better light. Here is the link and its more in depth thanks. ruclips.net/video/HLlBthYWjV0/видео.html
Did the fires affect Elkmont?
Sharon Meeks Hayman No Elkmont was spared.
I heard about the fires, it looked real bad
At least it missed this area
I seen a few videos of people escaping the fire
Fire was all around and they very nearly didn't make it.
Look around youtube you might find a few video of escapes. (O.o)
You will be amazed they made it
What is the cost of living up there it's looks like it's a nice 👍🏻 place to raise a family because I have family up the Carolinas I would love to move further up then the Carolinas thank you for sharing 😎👈🏻
Exploration Unknown its a shame that these guys boys left this stuff abandoned
Smokemont was a big logging town there also. Love it there. I lived in Bryson City NC for 21 years until just recently. Beautiful there,
Yes, Bryson City is a lovely town of lovely people.
The trees are so beautiful I can see my dream Mid Century Modern inspired home in that backdrop!
Just caught this video. Really cool town! Another video that makes me want to get out myself. Glad these videos are helping you with your health and its fun!
I love Tennessee!
Thank you so much for the tour.
I hope Ivan visit this place some day....
I like the way he stops to read the "no trespassing" before entering the building
👍
sjnagele 😂😂😂Savage#
Hope these trespassing, explorers realize they have nobody to sue, when they fall trough a rotting floor or have a ceiling beam drop on their heads. After all signs are posted everywhere telling them to keep out. Yet look at all the people going through these places as if it's a tourist site. .Let's hope their smart enough to leave a note their out trespassing so loved ones' know where to find their dead bodies.

People like to take risk! So don't be afraid to fly or drive ,
I get that Hawthorn owl. I am not afraid to fly or drive, cause I recognize everything has risks. To a certain degree! It's why we go to spooky movies. Knowing it's not true. Or ride a rollercoaster knowing it'll be over in 4 mins. However walking through a rotted structure without permission on private property is a different matter. Try to imagine you get a phone call from a lawyer telling you your great, grand aunt ( That you didn't know you had) had passed away leaving you an old Victorian that has set empty and untouched for 40 yrs. You rush to the site all excited, then come to realize it's in such bad shape a fart could knock it down. Thing is your the owner, and what happens to somebody on your property is something your liable for. Forget being sued I'd feel bad someone got hurt or died there.
Wow awesome video thanks I’m glad I found your channel! I’m moving to Tennessee this spring so I’m sure there is a lot to do and see in my travels!!!!
Great job on this video. I heard a out this page through Taylor's grand adventures page. I look forward to watching more of your videos.
I really want to check this place out sometime! Love the Smoky Mountains, one of my favorite places to visit!
539 Productions mine too. I'm going tomorrow for the 4th of July parade in Gatlinburg Tn, & Knoxville, Tn. 4th of July festival & fireworks.
Great job, Thank you. any snakes
Smokey’s are def gorgeous
Check out Greenbrier while there. It's off the usual tourist traps. Great place to really enjoy the mountains.
539 Productions yeah I would also!!! Beautiful 👍
I don't know where you're from if those places don't look too awful bad to me I'm sure there be enough people out there that would love to live in a place like that including
It's great that you explain the establishment and how it ends up abandoned in your video's.. love them btw👍
Such a neat place..I love love love forests like that that have hidden little treasures like that..the old fireplace and cabins..Those stairs going up to the second floor of the cabin would have been too tempting for me..but yeah I guess they would be old and unsafe..awesome video..you made it fun..like we were there with you!
What an awesome place. One fun fact is the cabins that you walk thru the front door and lined up straight thru the cabin is the back door, They are called shotgun houses I forget the reason why. Thanks for uploading this interesting place for us to visit with you!!!
Ve Vee because you can walk in the front door and shoot a shotgun and the bullet just goes right thru the back door.
Ve Vee ... because of the layout that you described ... they are as straight as a shotgun
Ve Vee they are called shotgun houses because you could shoot through the front door and and straight out of back.
That is just like the first house Elvis Presley lived in. Still there and open for the public to visit.
Nice job documenting.. I have always loved hiking.. thank you an God Bless
Absolutley beautiful there! I live in TN but about 3 hours away. Love it this time of year all the fall colors and clean cool mountain air! One of my favorite little get aways!
Omgosh... Amazing video.. I love looking that these old cabins...you seem like a very nice person... Every though i just subscribed and checking out your vidoes. I happy to say i haven't heard you use bad words...lol.... This is making me want to take another mini vacation back to tn...👍
Very cool, these are such nice cabins. The wood floors look amazing. I'd love to see this place.
Would make for a great scene on the Walking Dead 👍🏽
Brandy Young yes it would
Yes it would be a great scene for anything like that
Or a Dark Shade Creek movie with Cyrus.
Yes, it would because it has the same energy as a graveyard.
Just found this video, really enjoyed it keep up the good work, and hi from Worcestershire England 👍👍
That little Hewn Log Cabin is my favorite also, and that place should have been preserved from the time it was abandoned. People like stepping back in time like you did there. Thanks for sharing.
I love the smokies! Shoutout to my fellow Tennesseans!
Shout out back at ya! Gotta love the Great Smokey Mountains and just waking up to them every single day!
I just found your channel....I LIVE THIS TYPE OF SHIT BRO! I can't wait to really see what kind of videos you have!
That scenery looks perfect for another Friday the 13th remake!!
I do photography myself at C. S. Hightower Photography and have been going there for years. This is one of my favorite places to shoot also. I really enjoy watching your posts. Keep up the good work !!
This is so sad to see. I would totally live in one of these cabins. Put in a little work and it is totally livable.
since it is a camping site. How come they don't fix the cabins up and rent them out?
Richard Peralez They dont own the land. Camping site is up the hill and probly privately owned. I think the Govt. owns that land. They take tax $ and let it rot. Sad. It could be such a nice place for families kids who ever. But its to run down now.
@@pambeyers9081 , then why not simply offer a fair amount of money and buy up the fucking land? Surely someone can not do that, right?
The National park system does not likely have the money to fix them up and use them as rental cabins. Would probably be a money-losing opportunity anyhow.
Thank you for your amazingly cool videos. Informative, fun with your great Sense of humor.
That place has paranormal activity.. Patty the G team and other paranormal groups went there and they caught some strange activities.. Great to see that place in a broad day light Jon.. great vid of yours.. excellent!!
There's been a alarming amount of people that have and still continue to go missing there and never been found,not even a trace.
Bigfoot...I've heard about this place before
If anybody lives near there, it would make a good bug out location. Make a Cache and hide some supplies up there
Good video. Thanks for recording your exploration of this abandon town.
The first cabin you entered was called Spindle Tops. The rooms in the bottom are were once horse stalls. My grandfather helped build it and it has since been torn down.
Thanks for the tour. Why, with so many homeless people would the Gov not fix these cabins up for Homeless Children? The scenery is so beautiful and a children's sanctuary would be a good thing?
Thank you for this video,it was very enjoyable, I love the simple old buildings.
Awsome job . Iam always interested in historic towns and why some are abandoned . Interesting stuff to me. Thanks.
I was happy to finally make it there in October! Very intriguing! Thanks for sharing.
Should be given back to the #Cherokee Nation.
easleybadboy America doesnt owe them. White people do
easleybadboy yeah I second that, tired of ppl always saying that shit, we owe the Indians, we stoled their land. Hahaha ppl need to learn real history. Everyone things mighty white owes them.
People of every race have been "conquering new lands" "invading" & "taking over" others since the beginning of time & it still occurs today. The strong survive.
Jackie lisa yes true. I conquered my backyard this weekend, I'm the king of that shit lol
Carrie Geren Scoggins [Official] that sounds racist
I love this channel. you give so much information. thank you!
Love your Videos . Excellent job . Love Your style and those cabins great place.
