Well, some people don't like what drug rehabs stand for. The problem is systemic, so just going somewhere to dry out is not going to solve anyone's problem. That's why no one respects the place. It was always a joke and now it's a pile of trash. Might as well tag it up. Or Hell, let homeless people live there, but the law won't allow that very sensible activity! :-)

Legal Fiction Natural Fact There are flaws with every system that is a system... mental health, alcoholism, drug addiction etc. We don’t go to these places to evoke anger or harsh feelings with the people who watch our videos. We go to them to experience their architecture, history and the beauty that lies within the decay. We don’t promote further destruction such as tagging. The majority of the places we go have been tagged with enough filth and obscenities. To cause further carnage on these places will solve nothing. To develop this place once again so that it could be used for other purposes, including sheltering of homeless people, would be awesome, but extremely costly for the type of renovation this decayed place would need. Maybe someday abandoned buildings will be put to better use, but for now we will continue to document them in their current state in hopes to bring a little life backroads them, even if just for a moment. Thanks for commenting! We always appreciate feedback! Take care and stay safe.

@'bout 26:45 I believe the 'radio equipment' is a very old reciever-where you plug all of ur equipment into. It looks like it caught on fire.

I worked here as a housekeeper in the mid 90's. That is but 1 of the buildings that still stand. The largest building, that housed the patients, cafeteria is gone. it used to be up around the bend on the road above you... this is so creepy and sad..

​@@kimwhitney3453I worked there also. Adolescents. Pops and Dave were still there.

It must have been so awesome to see when it was in operation! It was such a beautiful place in a beautiful area...even in it’s present state of decay!

What was the name of this place

Full Dark Productions thank you so much!!!! We are looking forward to many more adventures with you guys!!! This is only the beginning!!!! 😎❤️😎

Aw 2 thank you so much for telling us your story! We wish we could have seen this amazing place back when it was in operation! Do you happen to have any pics from back then? We would LOVE to see what it looked like! :)

@@JMExplorations unfortunately I do not have any pictures. I was a kid and no camera phones back then lol. I can check with my friend to see if she has any. But seeing how much this place has returned to nature makes me feel old! It closed in 2001/2002. I worked there 2 years and the feeling in the cafeteria was inspiring with the beautiful view. My job was to wash all the dishes and pots and pans. Fill the drink machines. Assemble and disassemble the salad bar. Stick the snacks. Make the coffee. Set up the meal line. Wash all the tables. And clean the entire kitchen and the food areas. And the best part was serving the food to the residents because I loved talking to them for a couple minutes as we served them. I had blue hair and my best friend who worked with me (we'd work together on dinner shifts and we would switch who went home first becasue after serving 2 were not needed) she had yellow hair. The adult residents gave us nicknames, blue bird and canary. 🤗 The adults were always kind. They were often funny too. Some were there against their will and others on free will. All were battling addiction to all substances and also eating disorders. They'd walk through the lunch style line and have multiple options for food to choose from. My friend and I would "yell" at them when they refused a vegetable telling them they need to eat their vegetables! (All in good fun, not really yell obviously. And we knew who we could joke with and who was not interested) There was one man there for a while that the cook mentioned was a pain. He always say alone and got weird special treatment? She had to cook seperate meals for him and very specific. Not becasue of a food allergy or health reason, just preferences. He was rich and well kown so 🤷‍♀️ The under 18 group would come in first. They were always there against their will and the cliche rich feisty hormonal impulsive teens. They were not always nice but never mean to us "lunch ladies". I dont think most of not all of them had ever had a job. Occasionally a kid would go nuts and get a type of tranquilizer shot. I only saw it happen 2x. One time a boy was trying to escape and was losing his mind and there were multiple people on him. Another there was this one girl who REALLY hated this other girl and they would be seperated by the entire line of kids. One in the front, one in the back. Opposite sides of the room to eat. I was not a fan of the mean girl. And I felt bad for the girl who was the focus of her anger. She'd always be screaming this and that at the girl. What I mostly caught was she hated her becasue she didnt have real problems becasue the girl was recovering from an eating disorder and not a drug addict. Which was so stupid of the mean Yelling girl. But of course the counselors/care takers would shut it down immediately and if she caused any more issues or was mean earlier in the day she'd have to eat somewhere else. Whitch I liked when she was not there for the poor quiet girls sake. The other girl never responded and kept her head down. But who knows what went down. 🤷‍♀️ One night she went all hulk and was trying to get to the quiet girl becasue she actually stood up for herself and said something. This made the other girl furious and she was charging over to her flipping tables and chairs before she was "subdued." We often were alone at the end of the shift for an hour even though we were only 15. There were plenty of people in the rest of the building. The only time I would feel nervous was at night when I would have to take the trash out. You'd put the trash in the elevator (not for people to ride) would go downstairs to the lower level to get it out of the elevator, there was a tiny hall with the large refrigerator and freezer. The hall was always dim and I couldnt look at the little windows on the doors. And then the long hallway with a few doors to the left and the door leading to the platform with the dumpsters. Every. Single. Time. I was nervous. But im a scary cat lol. The building you were in I believe is where the office was where I filled out my papaerwork and a nurse came to take some blood to test for disease, get a urine drug test and to give me a TB "shot". However I never knew there was a pool there! It looks like a good time in its hay day! The switchbacks were hard to get up. But my parents other drivers never had much of a problem. Some would park at the bottom and others would give them a ride up in the winter. It was pretty cool for a first job and also paid above minimum wage which was awesome. Unfortunately with what I think was an increase in oxycontin use, there were sadly 3 deaths in the last few years there and I think they faced lawsuits and were forced to close. It first was set up as a rehab in the late 40s and there are rehabilitation papers written from the doctors and programs there that are still used today. I cant believe such a beautiful place was left to go back to the earth, but I also don't mind. Anyways those were my long pointless stories lol. Was this the only building left up there?

THE OUTBURSTS thank you!!! This one was very enjoyable for us!!! :) :)

Omg…this video was done so long ago! Lol. We had so much fun on this one! Thank you so much for watching!!!

Thank you so much, Fiona!

Marcel getting icked out about sanitary products (jokingly or not) sent me into orbit

dear god that water tank has been leaking with the colony of black mold festering behind it

can’t blame jen for liking the wood paneling, there’s a reason woodgrain electronics are so sought after

One of the top 10 funniest moments ever in our videos! Thank you for getting us! Lol

Right?? Totally disgusting. We did this video so long ago and have since become more careful about close exposure to these hazards!!

Abandoned City Camo Crew Explorers thank you!!! This place was so cool to explore!!! Glad you could come along with us!!!! :) :)

@@JMExplorations Thank you

That really sucks to hear. I was hoping to check it out someday.

Place went bankrupt after Canada stopped sending folks there. There were 3 buildings....white house....juvenile form and upper hospital. The place was started with encouragement from Bill W the founder of AA. I worked here 2 years.

Rick Cooper thank you!!! Our friends at Full Dark Productions created the introductory video and music for us!!! Not a new channel...just a new intro!!! 😊😊

Yankee Driver Gaming WOW...thank you so much for that information!! We didn't know a lot about the place but it's cool to know a little more now!! :)

Offbeat Discoveries thank you so much!!! Jennifer and I have been friends for a long time and there is noone on this earth I would rather spend time with!!! So much so that I put together a perfect weekend explore at a old abandoned radar base! We camped atop one of the many towers on the property!!! We had a 360° beautiful view of the Vermont mountains with the most incredible sunrise and sunset!!! I waited for the perfect monent at sunset and proposed!!! It was perfect!! ❤️

OMG!! That is so sweet. CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU TWO!!! You guys just keep giving me goosebumps. STOOOOP! LOL. Troy and I keep having the most amazing things happen while filming....like miracle things. Things that just can't happen normally. Does that ever happen to you two?

It’s in Dublin nh, been there tons. Recently some crack heads have taken residence tho, might wanna be extra careful 😂

JD Knight7 thank you!!!! We enjoyed this place very much!!!! :) :)

Dave29302. Thank you! We always wonder and speculate on what things are when we see something interesting! Thank you for commenting!

I believe it. It was on a small mountain with a tough switchback road to get up.

Bear Bear interesting! We didn't notice that!!! Nice catch! :)

What?

Oneoldkey thank you and LMAO.... We don't usually run from anything but we didn't want to get eaten by an animal!!! lol

@@JMExplorations Don't worry guys! I won't tell anyone! 🤫 See you at the next one! 🍀

demarco washington yeah sure. Would you mind private chatting cause some people on KZfaq like to go and burn the places down/ wreck it even more and I don’t want someone to see the location 😂, my Instagram is laurenmae_33

Lauren, thank you for taking his request private. We do not give out locations publicly and we especially don't give them to people who simply ask for a location and could care less about the video that we worked hard to create. Thank you

We are so happy that you were able to go there! We are happy to hear that it is still in good condition to explore! And thank you so much for watching our video! We love to explore together and are happy to bring others along with us!

@@JMExplorations lol if you guys are back in the New Hampshire area I would love to join or set up some places that we can explore together.

Lauren Dumont Sounds good! We will let you know! Send us an email or hit us up on Facebook.👍👍.

mark c it was a cool place!!! Email us for details jmexplorations18@gmail.com

Dublin NH. My hometown, and I used to work there... that was the last of the buildings at that old hospital and has been since demolished along with the rest of the buildings.

@@kimwhitney3453 I am really sad to hear that.

Yeah that’s what we heard but not sure it’s true.

Corkboard TV thank you and LOL!!! Sorry for that little glitch!!! Glad you made it back!!!! :) :)

lisa martin it certainly would! :)

Desertify Urbex: Abandoned Places this place was incredible!!! Creepy with fog when we arrived and clear and sunny when we left!!! We want to go back and do some drone shots!!!

@@JMExplorations You should. I found the radio tower out back pretty odd with its fake tree branches, and there is supposed to be a small cemetery near that I have yet to find. An odd place.

Are you talking about the Santa outside the old car dealership on rout 101? The waving one that was like 20 ft tall.

B Rand we love this place and I am really surprised that they put up cameras. The place is pretty trashed.

I worked there as a kid at 15. Is it posted at the bottom? Are there multiple trails? I would love to see it again.

Hidden Valley Homestead we have yet to explore a mine but we almost did when we were in Tennessee!!!

Good Day for Decay Hey Mike...when you gotta go..you gotta go!!! Lol

@@JMExplorations Lmao

If you work in plumbing or maintenance you see a lot of womans rooms and the vending machine and toilet didn't phase me the absence of excessive toilet paper and paper towels on the floor Is shocking me it's too clean

Corkboard TV where is this

Umm we’re is it because I’m trying to find some to explore cause I’m board but I’m not sure if it’s in Hudson or the mountains

@@mooser9073 There are more places than Hidson or the mountains lol. It is kind of on a mountain, it's high on a hill on the side of a mountain. The view from there is beautiful. Im surprised no one bought the place. It is tough getting up the switchback in a car though.

Well that’s what happens when jerk vandals get a hold of a place! It was a beautiful place back in the day!

Ian Y Gath thank you!!! We always wonder the same thing!!! This place was so serene sitting atop a mountain with beautiful views!!! For the record...J was a good girl wearing a mask.....M is a dope and wasn't!!! LOL :) :)

Was a drug rehab. High end until mid 90's. Went bankrupt.

Irem and Ömer it was one of our favorite places to explore! :)

Hobie Katt we LOVED those old cigarette machines!!! You don't see those around much anymore!!!! :) :)

@@JMExplorations retro ✌✌

connie provolone yes it was!!!! LOL

murks 187 they put up cameras recently and the last two people we know who went there got arrested.

It was in Dublin NH, but has been torn down since this video was made. Just found that out myself from some of the newer comments on the video.

@@pixystixnfairycrack that's a shame it got torn down it would of been fun to adventure it

You're guess is as good as ours. We just film what we see!

@@JMExplorations hmm thinking maybe someone had spray painted it red on there because i remember the red heart in the beginning just thinking if it truly was blood it definitely wouldn't still be bright red by now love your video though great job!!

@@mermaidhippo7596 we appreciate that!!! Unfortunately this location has fell victim to the wrecking ball recently. So sad to see that happen to locations!

@@JMExplorations that is such a tragedy it always makes me upset when that happens because you know its not like that place was in an urgent spot to of needed to be torn down anyway love ur videos great quality as well!!

@@mermaidhippo7596I think it might be rust from the pipes depending on what metals they are made of

@@JMExplorations Fantastic! I'm a prospector so I love all the gold mine stuff. That one is particularly creepy cuz it's so deep and it was flooded at one time.. and all the ladders are rotten and sketchy... I wont spoil it but the one kids gets really scared at the end.... I wont tell you why...HEEHEE... enjoy!

Hidden Valley Homestead sounds cool!!!

Rebecca Dickinson that place is full of them!!! 😊😊

Holy crap!!! That’s awesome!!! 😎

it was a drug rehab center and there were deaths there.

@@JMExplorations ah, so thats why

??

Ok we won’t 🙄

@@JMExplorations what's with the face? this state in New Hampshire has the worst fentanyl and heroin problem in the whole country, a cow town state has a heroin and fentanyl problem 😂🤣😂🤣 that state is pathetic.

@@JP-cb8bz New Hampshire is one of the best states in the Northeast!

@@JMExplorations I'm sure it was that way at one point but not anymore.

@@JMExplorations LOL...

You are probably right! And thanks for calling us young! It's been awhile since we were called that! Lol. Have a great weekend!

Corkboard TV thank you for the spoiler alert!!! Now we don't have to watch it!!! HAHAHA :) :)

Thanks for the comment, maybe you should learn how to use a urinal? Thanks for the life changing comment

First of all... no. We did not mention the location of this video for a reason. Although there are those who truly just want to know where a location is, there are others with bad intentions. Criminals who have nothing but destruction and chaos on their minds. We peacefully document and are not interested in helping out vandals find a new location. Read our pinned comment and you will realize why we did not mention this location on purpose. Oh and, we absolutely will not give a location to people who boldly ask without even mentioning the video we worked so hard to create. With all of that being said, this location is well known and is protected by security. A little research and you can find it on your own.

@@JMExplorations Right on. Good video. I'm from up here in the hills of NH, and yes the blatant destruction and vandalism of these special places is extremely upsetting. When I was in high school a few of us small town local kids knew of a cabin way out in the woods with an open door. It had cute furniture, a well stocked bookshelf, bedrooms, curtains. It was ok to go up there. Someone let the secret slip and there was a big high school party thrown up there. Busted everything, ruined the deal. People are not allowed up there anymore because of that kind of thing, sad, but I dont blame them at all. There were a number of rural cabins like that back in the 80's. They had an honor system open door and even a guestbook. It ain't like that anymore.
