It's a Disney Ghost Town

I use to work there and you are pretty much correct. Disney put a moratorium on swimming or even wading in Bay Lake and Seven Seas Lagoon in the late 90"s because of an amoeba outbreak and didn't want the liability. I worked at the poly at the time and we had the beach closed and would allow anyone in the water.

"whatever was in the lake"... sounds like the start of a horror movie.

I was there this past weekend and saw the high green fence blocking the swimming area from view but was able to stick my hand through the fence and collect some video of the old swimming area. What's still odd though is the old ticket counter is still there and you can walk past it and into the old recreational portion of the park without a soul present.
I'm glad to see this video and the all-in-one info provided here, as various info seems to be strewn all over regarding this old park.

My uncle and aunt both used to be imagineers. I'll ask them about River Country and I'll report back if there's any noteworthy info that wasn't mentioned here.

@abehammy - Wow! Really? That's pretty cool to have such close ties to the insiders of Disney! I'm sure they have some interesting stories to tell ... not just about R.C. but about a lot of Disney Magic!!!
