    I explore the various abandoned and decrepit buildings and locations that pepper the world. These places are remnants of the past, and I enjoy documenting them for all to see before they succumb to man or Mother Nature. Join me as I enter the belly of the beast and show you what these abandoned buildings have to offer on the inside. Happy Hunting and I wish everyone safe explorations :)

    You need to call the city and cleave an anonymous tip that there are chemicals still left on the property. Over time they can destabilize and become poisonous gases that could kill someone. If your worried about the call being traced to you use a gas stations phone to leave an anonymous tip witheither the police department or city hall environmental works. Please do this! It's a danger to people and animals!

    I lived in Rockford for almost 40 years and worked for 11 years at the Clock Tower Resort. Coco Keys wasn't a thing until 8 or 9 years after I left Clock Tower but I took my kids there a few times. The resort itself was condemned by the city in 2017, two years after the water park had been shut down. The whole thing to me is pretty symbolic of Rockford itself. The resort basically served as a landmark that welcomed people into Rockford as they came off I-90 in its glory days, and subsequently did the opposite after it began tumbling into disrepair after 2014-15. It's as if it was telling people, "keep driving, nothing to see here", which unfortunately speaks volumes for the rest of Rockford. Supposedly there's a proposal to put a Hard Rock Hotel and Casino on the land that the facility occupied, but time will tell. Historically, the city has managed to shit all over anything that could attract progress and tourism, and has basically become a hellhole over the last 30 years.

    Worked here for many years. Know every inch of that place.... Was a lifeguard, did more repairs to that place than the maintenance staff. What does that tell you?.. This place was a cesspool the entire last 5 years it was open. I used to walk around that place stating over and over that it need to be demolished. One of Rockfords biggest failed businesses of what could have been incredible.

    • @adamHMMR
      @adamHMMR 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      When the park opened, it thrived for a few years. It was connected to a very large hotel/resort/convention center. In its final years they went through a number of owners. All of which just decided to bandaid broken thing instead of fix them, all throughout the property, not just the waterpark. The place had soooooo much potential but it was going to take ALOT of money to get it back on its feet entirely and I think that's what the final owners knew. In that case the owner just squeezed every penny out of it they could without putting any money into it. It became ghetto and dirty. No one wanted to come. In the final year someone got shot and killed in the hotel..

    NO WAY! I went to this place twice: Once when I was about 5 or 6 for a birthday party and another time when I was about 14, maybe the same year they closed. The first time I went, I got awfully sick, flu or food poisoning type symptoms, and didn’t know if it was because of the pizza or the water. The second time I went, I was definitely older than the target audience, I found it pretty boring. Didn’t get sick, but I remember the water was either cold or hot depending on which area, and the pool with basket balls was very murky and smelled like chemicals. They were closed once before for failing inspections for things like leaking pipes, dirt, etc, and reopened without actually fixing anything. The second time they closed was for good. What a mess...

    That place was called Coco Keys. I went there a couple times as a child. So many fun memories in the park and in the hotel when they held special events. It was popular back in the 80’s(my mom used to work in the hotel), a few famous people have stayed in the hotel.
    A couple months back, the entire building was destroyed.

    My dad was a maintenance guy for the resort here. The owners ended up selling the place to another company and they were the ones that ran it into the ground. The pizza place was originally a Pizza Hut, I imagine until they pulled out due to declining business. There was also an arcade that was between the Waterpark and the resort. I came here a few times as a kid. Crazy to see it as an urbex exploration now and I pass by the empty lot all the time

    This is CoCo Keys Water Park in Rockford, Il. I went there several times before they closed. The bacteria problem they had was due to poor management. The maintenance team was very bad at regulating chlorine levels, and at times there was far too much chlorine for safe swimming, other times there wasn't enough, leading to bacteria prospering. Additionally, the Best Western owned Clock Tower Resort that was connected had several incidences of gun violence, and was forced to shut down. My parents have fond memories, as their wedding reception was at the resort back when it was a respectable establishment. It is a very interesting experience to see the place I used to swim and play at in it's current state. Thank you

The hotel was very bad but the water park was ok. Not the best but not the worst either. It was very noisy with kids making lots of noises but if you rented a cabin you didnt heard as much as when you were in the water. I did tested the big water slide and sure got wet there.
