I couldn't skip a single moment of this video. I greatly enjoyed. I did not expect such detailed introduction could exist. Thank you so much for all your efforts and work you've done making it. Dirty Dancing and Groundhog Day are two of my most favourite movies ever. My favourite song from Dirty Dancing is ' I've had the time of my life'. I first watched it in 2009 thanks to my Mexican friend who introduced this song to me. So I actually discovered the film thanks to that song from the movie. After it I realised I should watch the movie.❤ Warmest regards, Irina from Ukraine.

I loooove this film, gives me goosebumps…and I’m only 41 so watched it years after it’s release. Makes me so sad that it was so long ago and Patrick has now gone. He was such a rebel and bad boy! Iconic film and great video from you! ❤

I’m only a couple of years older than you and, yes, I probably was too young to see it when I did. It was the 80s after all. I’ve got a few other filming location videos that I just need to edit and upload so stay tuned for those. I also have a playlist of other filming locations that you can view on my channel. Thanks!

While filming, many of the cast and production team stayed at the 1927 Lake Lure Inn and Spa. The majority of filming was done at a former boys camp. The camp gymnasium was the filming location of both the talent show and the final dance scene in the movie.

One of my all time favorite movie ❤ thanks for making the video. I really enjoyed it.

Great! I’m working on another “classic” 80s movie. It didn’t do nearly as well at the box office but is just as memorable for other reasons. Stay tuned for that!

Fav songs: she’s like the wind, these arms of mine & hungry eyes. I’d love to visit the Kellermans Mountain Lake Lodge some day. Your vid was really interesting, enjoyed the tour with you.

It’s a great place beyond the filming locations. I made an update video in April where I show off some more of Mountain Lake from different viewpoints. It shouldn’t be that hard to find on my main channel page.

That the water in the lake is gone at the lodge is such a real shame.

You and I are the same age. I heard the Soundtrack before I saw the movie. When the movie was released, I knew what it was about and that it was above my age demographic, but I was always interested in things that are for an older crowd, and so I had to see it. It opened in December, 1987 but my family and I first saw as a rental when it hit home video that following June, and my aunt made a bootleg of it for me literally the day the VHS became available. I loved Dirty Dancing, and I've owned it on several different formats thru the years

So, shortly after I made this video they opened a movie themed gift shop. Supposedly they now have some movie props, souvenirs, soundtracks, movie recordings, etc. gives me another reason to get back down there.

Its crazy that the lake has been empty for awhile. That seemed like a good sized lake. One of these days I would love do what you are doing. Great video.

For real! I remember they used to have canoe and kayak rentals on the lake. Now there’s a hiking trail going across. I have a couple more filming locations teed up - I just need to edit them. Stay tuned!
