Matthew Falls actually, drains Ghost Lake. Comet Creek Resort ran in the 90’s, built and run by a man named Brian. He had big plans, wanted to generate electricity from Comet Creek Falls. He was out there building and working about 5 years, catered to both summer tourists and winter snowmobilers, cooked pizza in the pizza oven (the main cabin was the restaurant). You never even noticed why the fisherman’s hut was named so?? Brian almost died out there by himself when he had a medical emergency in the middle of the winter. He never managed to come back afterwards. The place has since changed hands now owned by a local outfitter. If you want to know the history of a place you should talk to the locals! Thank you for closing the doors....Oh and welcome to BC’s interior rainforest.
I have to catch up on your adventures but I love when you run into people that recognize you. Canada has become a huge interest to me now. I started watching because my son took a road trip from North Carolina, crossed the nation, crossed through Canada and moved into Alaska where he settled into Fairbanks. I miss him but I am very proud of his independence. Your adventures give me a peek inside unknown territories for me and add to my interest of a part of the world I am completely unaware. Thank you for sharing your awesome videography with all the information and your own thoughts and expertise. From the quirky humor to the constant positivity and loads of information I have started to rely on these adventures to release my own daily stress after spending long hours in the healthcare industry.
Hi Heather....I have lived in Alaska for 60 years and Frozen Fairbanks was too much Cold for me. Your son must have a grreat job there or Just doesn't know there are Warmer places in Beautiful Alaska. If you come visit you may move up here just for the Summers.🙂
You did a wonderful job showing the beautiful outdoors we have close to home. My grandpa Brain built those cabins, my uncles and my dad helped when I was a kid. They were so beautiful in there time. The hot tube was always running and my grandpa made pizza for everyone. He lived there full time for a few years. The stone salmon in the fisherman’s cabin you didn’t get a good shot of.. but thank you for keeping the door closed to hold in its Beaty a little while longer. We always go on a yearly trip and see how much has changed and what people have done to keep it there. My moms friend came across your video and shared it to us. The Blairs
morgan blair wow, thank you so much for sharing this story with me. I wish I could share those memories as well. Must have been such a special place when your grandfather was there.
morgan, was that the stone salmon in/on the lower wall at 5:26? Did your family carve it or build it with stone like that or was it a fossil impression? It was hard to tell. It would be so bittersweet for me, were I to have your memories of being there when it was actively being built and thriving with life. Things like that....the past...make me very sad. But I have depression & grief and everything makes me sad. Thank you for sharing some of the story. It is such a gorgeous spot. I wish it could be brought back to existence.
@@morganblair3011 cool! How lucky you were. Priceless memories to last a lifetime. Special quality life experiences like that leave an impression don't they, such that when we are 65 years old, we'll be able to pull up girlhood memories with as much vibrant detail of colors & sounds, as if happened the day before. PS. When I wrote before that the past made me sad I didn't communicate that properly. It is more of a bittersweet feeling recalling all of my past, for it was so beautiful; full of nature, family, trips, history & heart-wrenching memories because so many of the people have passed on. My family all shared a large Shore compound on water's edge where me, my fam, cousins, aunts...everyone, lived thru Summers over fairytale lands of massive trees, the sea, many bungalows for separate family living, one being the large kitchen/dining bungalow where we'd have huge crab feats & pancake breakfasts. The foundation of a brain-vault of visuals & happenings of an idyllic childhood as I'm sure you have as well. The place is still there but falling down. I also drive to it once a year or so. Thanks for answering my question.
People use to appreciate being outdoors, in cabins or just camping. Today, it's as but a dream. All ruins and still well made construction still stands. You can see those stone cabins were made to last. Those old places were be replaced one day and people again will live on the spot they once stood. The forests do have their own cycle to renovate themselves and come back to life!
If you ever make enough money, you should consider buying and restoring some of places. You could have a series of Destination Adventure destinations. Anyway, love the channel! Love your attitude and appreciation for everything! Keep up the awesome content.
Considering its age most of the buildings are in maintainable condition because of the quality of construction. Required repairs not that extensive clean up the Field Mouse droppings to lessen the risk of Hantavirus, drop in more rugged furniture and relax. Agreed its so nice to see the resort only touched by time and weather. Great vlog.
Your channel is so cool, every time I see one it’s like a mini vacation. Especially when your in Alaska or Canada 🇨🇦. So THANK YOU for helping de- stress for if it’s only a little bit.
An abandoned resort cabin that's nicer than the last motel I stayed in. Glad you got to tour it before it gets destroyed by time, and thanks for showing us around!
Really loved this video!! A miracle that it is untouched other than natural decay. Quite sad that nobody is trying to preserve those huts, they're cute. I bet it was glorious when open. Thank u for sharing this little gem.
you have evolved into a great cinema producer/photographer , it does take years, thank you for my entertainment as someone who appreciates your craft , :)
Hi everyone o my goodness the view of the rushing water and the water falls O SOOOOOOOOOO VERY BEAUTIFUL LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT and you on the top of the RV AWESOME I could stand there all day looking at the water SOOOOOOOOOO VERY BEAUTIFUL and relaxing and PEACEFUL to watch I wish I could have been there to very BEAUTIFUL and the people who invited you to lunch that was so nice I just truly appreciate and respect and enjoyed watching you and your AWESOMELY AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL JUST BEAUTIFUL video Thanks for sharing made my day's and night's that much more BRIGHTER THANKS AGAIN GOD BLESS YOU and your family's and friends and Pet's today always and forever and eternally in JESUS name AMEN N AMEN HALLELUJAH AMEN THANKS AGAIN GOD BLESS KEEP UP THE AWESOMENESS BECAUSE YOU TRULY ARE AWESOME THANKS AGAIN GOD BLESS
This is such a neat place it would be great if someone came along and gave it the love it deserves and once had and get it back to its former glory. This is a treasure that I would hate to see disappear
@@Destination_Adventure Vancouver island is great , many places to explore. I live on Quadra island, would love to connect and show you cool places here too.
Hey man, just wanted to say thanks for doing what you do and bringing a camera along. I've lived in BC all my life and Ive only ever started to really explore it after being inspired by the vids you make. Also, big respect for following the urbex creed of taking nothing but photos and leaving nothing but footprints. Btw, If you ever find yourself in the Kootenay region you should check out the valley of ghosts between New Denver and Kaslo. There is an obscene level of history and abandoned buildings through there.
Thank you Dustin. You are a dear for taking the effort of sharing your wonderful adventures. I know it is hard work, takes energy, time & effort; mostly heart which you have a lot of.
I always think it is interesting how dust free and how shiney clean these "abandoned" places are. Notice how white and clean the toliet is. The windows appear to have just been washed.
Wow that was cool. I think the design of the cabins like yurts maybe one of the reasons they are still in good shape. Also most people that will go so far off of the Beaten path are more respectful of the wild thanks for taking us with you
The opening scene alone made me glad I subscribed. I've been temporarily disabled for the last few years. And though I'm getting better all the time now, I'm so out of shape from 2 years of being bedridden, and a little more than a year of not being able to walk without a cane. I used to go on gnarly adventures all the time. But now I'm almost 45, and it's very difficult to get back in shape for commando missions over rivers, through woods, up and down mountains, etc. Mahalo Nui Loa for making this channel. I can still get a vicarious glimpse of adventure. Alohaz
just start out with little walks and slowly build back your stamina. I know. It's hard to once have been so adventurous and active...to then look back on it all as great memories. One has to be glad we had that opportunity and adjust to the new you. good luck!!
Man the cinematography in your videos is fricken epic dude, regardless of your channel size love seeing my backwoods Canadian brothers out in the wild !
I would love to live there so remote and beautiful. At least til now someone else will see this and either move in or less honest ones will go there to destroy.
Hello from Washington state! I thoroughly enjoy your adventures, and your will to do just go out and adventure on your own, I admire that. This place was definitely a cool find! Glad it's in great shape still too.
Great video. Really enjoy the untouched gems like this where nothing's out of place yet. Looking forward to more videos this year if you'll be RVing BC. Canada is my home and has so much hidden🇨🇦
Neat places and it makes you wonder why the resort wasn't kept up? Lack of interest? Someone obviously put a lot of effort into it. Thanks for taking us along.
such an interesting place....thank you for sharing. Maybe some day I will get the chance to get out there. I have lived in Quesnel for 25 years and haven't bene out to Ghost Lake, but thinking now I need to make it happen
Wow, those falls were amazing! I wonder if its running normal or overflow from run off? Gorgeous drone shot! Thanks for sticking it out, it was so worth it 👍🏼
We loved it. Keep them coming. Can I tell you something to help? Slow the camera down when you go to move it from side to side!! It blurs and makes you dizzy! Other than that, they are great!
Would be a great place to purchase and fix up, maybe not to open to tourists but as a private getaway retreat for friends and family to enjoy. I wonder why the new owners haven't done anything with it (comment by Sandy Phillips provides info about the history - thanks!).
Love that area. Local outfitter... moose creek Cafe? She owned last I heard. Looks like she has been doing some work on the place. The restaurant had a nice stove that was stolen. Love the cariboo. Thanks for sharing. ~GrizzLee
Thanks for this videos I live in the lower mainland and there is so much more I want to see in B.C, now this gives the inspiration to do what I love the most to explore !!
Video is incredible👍 great footage & editing. These "abandoned" business finds make me sad & wonder Why the owners quit.🤔 great presentation of comet creek resort. Wonder if someone might buy it now?
Nice love the place would like to go to a place like that fix up a bit to preserve and use but as you know some will ruin it for all keep up the great work see you on the trails

only word for this video is EXCELENT......
Must agree with some of the comments ....that drone shot was epic
That drone shot with you on your rv on that bridge was amazingly beautiful !!
Thank you so much. I waited two days for that shot.
@@Destination_Adventure it was worth it!
Such an epic shot, your editing and cinematography is getting so good!

Awesome story about some fans offering up some hospitality. Canadians are amazing! Biased ;)
Lost for words to say what I’m feeling.
Neds a good spruce up and make all liveable looks loved.
Ditto added to home page .. I was SO near there when I rescued Bella from someone who couldn't keep her, NO coincidences. Lol.
Wow this is really quite the place, nice to see it hasn't been destroyed! Perhaps someone will rebuild it soon
What a wonderful place to see! Absolutely beautiful! I so hate when people ransack and destroy stuff! I hope someone saves Brian’s dream.
It's almost a paradise, there splendide image,
Breathtaking
beautiful. thank you.
This is such a neat place it would be great if someone came along and gave it the love it deserves and once had and get it back to its former glory. This is a treasure that I would hate to see disappear
Pretty cool resort. That’s a lovely spot too. Hard to imagine why you would abandon it.
Love your videos Dustin can watch them for hours.
Thank you for allowing me to share with you every adventure. So fun.
Amanda Proctor thank you so much for enjoying:)
@@Destination_Adventure Vancouver island is great , many places to explore. I live on Quadra island, would love to connect and show you cool places here too.
This must have had a great vibe when it was operational. The little huts look so cozy, and that basic kitchen is great.
Wow I love this place I would love to have it as my home! I’m new & im loving you already can’t wait to watch more! Thank you for taking us along..
What a hidden treasure. So glad it was in such good shape. Very fun explore.

The tin roof is what saved the main place. Would love to see it all restored.
🥰 wow beautiful!
Beautiful country!
That is a beautiful place. Who wouldn't want to live there? Although you'd have to keep a fire going all the time to keep the mosquitos away.
Thank you Dustin.

Thanks for the "Amazing Tour"!! Just wish it was longer!
Beautiful area. Shame it's not cleaned up and used today.
Amazing!

man i would love to go there and clean one out and spend a few nights!
thanks Dustin...I wanted to go back there and check it out as it is such a neat looking place when you are doing the loop
Great explore bro.

Someone mentioned the owner Brian had a medical emergency and never returned after.

Wow, those falls were amazing! I wonder if its running normal or overflow from run off? Gorgeous drone shot! Thanks for sticking it out, it was so worth it 👍🏼
the falls are active and beatiful all year
Love the video, I think that is a hand crank bread slicer
*Beautiful* place! ⚘
Wow spectacular, thank you!
