Every so often, I stumble across an absolutely unbelievable location. This is one of those! Though by definition, it is not technically "abandoned", Kah-Nee-Ta is well on it's way. This resort shut down in 2018 due to financial troubles, but there are some dark accusations behind that, in which I am not interested in discussing on the channel. There were plans put into action immediately after the closing, but the effect that this had on the surrounding communities and local economies, is one that may never be overcome. Prior to the loss of this operation, the local mill also shut down, and the nearby population of more than 3000 began do decline rapidly. Driving to this location now, it is abundantly clear the the surrounding area is struggling. Nearly every house and business is abandoned, vacant or in a state of absolute disrepair, but I need to comment that this land is absolutely beautiful.
Nearly everything is still left and intact at Kah-Nee-Ta, and the power is even still turned on, which makes it a very fascinating yet eerie place to explore. There is no vandalism, the windows are all still intact and the doors are locked and secured. It is nice to see a place like this being respected, and I truly hope that continues. As for the future of Kah-Nee-Ta, I am not so sure what will happen. There is so so much potential at this location, but the people will have to act very soon. Once Mother Nature begins to reclaim her land, it does not take her long to do so, and here she has already begun.
I want to give a really big thank you to my Patrons. You guys have been a great team, backing and supporting me and I am so excited to be able to continue traveling this winter to bring you content. It was pretty devastating having to abandon the channel last winter because of border closures, but were back and stronger than ever.

I worked there for 12+ yrs from the late 90's to the early 2010's. The memories came back flooding from you walking the property. I owe the path of my career to that resort. It's a travesty that Kah-Nee-Ta shut down, and it's sad to see it just rotting away. You can still see that it has the potential to be somewhat of what it used to be. Hopefully she gets the TLC she deserves and that was not given to her for so long 🤞🏽

Watching this video made me miss working there. I can’t believe it’s been 10 years from when I first start back in 2011 😳 fun fact the hot springs was only accessible to the tribal members, also another fun fact the golf shop you mention was actually the entrance to the pool and it had golf balls for the miniature golf course we had and the golf course was down the road from there like you were going up to the lodge but a bit further down, and there was also a tennis court the way as well 😊

This place is deeply important to me and my family. So many powerful memories and stories are tied to it for me and I was thoroughly devastated when it shuttered. My father who I had spent many weekend trips going here with to visit passed away a year or so before it closed. I remember the somber last visit I made, it was deep in fire season, smoke so thick it blotted the sun and made the whole sky red. Ever since all I could think about was what would become of this building. Something so important to a community, the people who would visit, and also just the amazing architecture. I'm glad to see at least when you filmed this it seems to be holding on as well as it can, and that people are respectful of it. My hope is that at least minor care is being taken to protect the buildings structure. The beauty of the lobby sticks with me, and I often feel it gets overlooked in terms of some of the most beautiful of its kind, a miniature timberline lodge I'd call it. Its also super unique as almost a cozy brutalism vibe. I had been meaning to make this trip myself but just hadn't found the time to do it, so I thank you for doing it for me. They're currently fixing the water park/hot spring and lower lodge. But my main hope is that they will eventually do the same for the upper lodge, or at least continue to maintain and preserve it.

Yes, I was at Kah-Nee-Ta with my parents in the early/mid-60s. Only in its infancy without all the high rise buildings around the swimming pool and a single office (much like us visiting Disneyland in 1959 and they barely had the submarine and Frontierland going and a few other features). Indian reservation (funded by the FEDS), initially a camping, camper, mobile home parking resort, ... later into this super hotel, swimming pool, and hanging out in the sun. Always wondered about it - googled it - and it was gone. Same old phrase - location, location, location. And as always, it was federally funded for all of these 60 years - until the funds were pulled - and it collapsed. It was also out in the eastern highland Oregon dry and brown desert scrub brush - that doesn't appeal to us coastal lowland Pacific Northwesterners blue water and green tree people.

This place is huge compared to the bare origins (and goodly population of attendees) ... that there would have been great success in those 1960s, 1970s, then the imploding 1980s economy, and 1990s dealing with external terrorism threats, that domestic situations were defunded - and forgotten.

Wow, so sad to see this video. My parents bought their first travel trailer around 1998 and we stayed there in the RV park close to the river that first time. After that, we went for a week just about every summer, which included my 30th and 40th birthdays. I always looked forward to my week there...being able to cook our own food in our RV spot in the trailer and also spending the day at the pool. The scenery driving into Kah-nee-ta was spectacular as well. We always tried to get spots 23 and 25 in the RV park, which were the best. I loved that village pool...the blue slide was there first, and then eventually they added the green slide, which was longer and faster. The village area dates back to the 60's, including the teepees. The February floods of 1996 totally wiped out that area, but they rebuilt the area bigger and better than it was before. There was/is a time capsule buried by the entrance of the spa building, with an eagle sculpture on top. The lodge area at the top of the hill was more expensive, but more of a hotel, and then they had the casino in there, and also a nice restaurant. At some point, the tribe decided that casino in the lodge was too isolated, so they closed that, and opened one closer to Madras, OR, with bigger plans to have one in the Gorge. But, over time, we began seeing the start of the decay due to very poor financial and operational management, around 2010 I'd say. The critical infrastructure wasn't being maintained as it should have been, and gradually became more of an ongoing maintenance issue each time we were there, particularly the RV hookups in the spots closest to the river. Eventually the hot tub area by the kid pool began to fail, and the cleanliness around it was bad. It was $10/day for the day-trippers to enter the village pool, but more and more, the workers at the desk (where the golf balls were shown) just looked the other way most of the time. Like they didn't care at all. When we first started going, the weekly rate was around $25, and eventually became close to $60/week! The value for that much higher price wasn't worth it at all, and fewer and fewer people (including us) decided to go elsewhere. I think 2015 was the last time my parents and I stayed there. The pandemic likely would have wiped them out, agreed, but the operation was too far gone several years prior to that. I'd love to see it restored to what it was, but as someone pointed out, the cost to do so at this point would be prohibitive, and unless it could be owned and operated completely outside of the tribe (which I doubt) I'm afraid Kah-nee-ta is a relic of Oregon's past.

I just discovered your channel the other day and this is the second video from you that I watched. I was intrigued by the headline (and love the conversation with your grandfather), but I was completely blown away when I realized the "abandoned resort in the desert" was Kah-Nee-Ta! I spent my childhood in the high desert of Central Oregon and have many fond memories of day trips with my family to Kah-Nee-Ta. It was always such an exciting treat when we got to go! I remember camping there once at the RV park as well. I did not realize it had closed down and I am saddened to see it in its current state. It's been roughly 30 years since my last visit there, but I still remember the tee pees, the golf course and the fun and excitement of being a kid, splashing around in the swimming pool on a sunny summer day!

I enjoyed the interview with your Grandpa, he seems like quite an interesting, sage and young-at-heart gentleman. I'm glad you still have him around and hope he's here for a long time to come. Thanks for the tour, it was most interesting as well.

I grew up going to Kah-Nee-Ta. Alot of my family and I worked there too. It used to be so much fun! I'd love to see it brought back to life.

Perhaps Grandpa and I live by the same motto- You don't stop playing because you grow old; You grow old because you stop playing. He's a gem!

Love your grandpa! So heartwarming! We can all take a page from his book! At 57, I feel like there's a lot of 17 left on me. Thanks for this!

Love the interview with your Grandpa, words to live by! Wish we could see more of him. Great video of the Resort. I hope they can get it running again, but unfortunately most people don’t want anything that remote!

Oh my goodness. I just found your channel. I don't usually comment on KZbin, but your grandpa's answer to the last question - sharing a hug - made me cry. Not sure why, just touched my heart. I didn't expect that answer and it was so sweet. You are so lucky and so blessed to have such an amazing grandfather.

This was quite the resort back in the day. Living close by I used to love going there for dinner and the cuisine was excellent as well as the view from the dining room. The lower area has all been refurbished with a major remodel and is due to open in a few months. The pools feature natural mineral-rich water piped from the near-by hot springs BTW. I especially enjoyed swimming on days when it was near freezing outside as the temperature of the water kept you warm. The resort was mostly staffed by tribal members who were always friendly and welcoming too. The tribes are still looking for a company to partner with them to remodel and refurbish the main resort and eventually re-open at some point in the future. I would certainly rate it as my all time favorite resort in Oregon and I have been to most of them.

Was there many times when I lived in Portland back in the 70's. I remember the first time I saw it the wildfires went almost to the front door and stopped, it looked so strange. I still think about all the fun we had there and the bar was super cool with indians in it talking in their language. The pool was beautiful and kept so clean back then.
