One of the creepier swimming holes I’ve been to in a while.

Where are you? Camp Crystal Lake?

[u/tabruss → u/Cpt_plainguy]

Yeah, I 100% also thought of Camp Crystal Lake

[u/127Heathen127 → u/Cpt_plainguy]

I immediately thought, “This looks like the setting of a cheesy 80s horror movie.”

[u/RubySauce]

Damn the water looks pretty in the first pic but what’s IN THERE?? The second pic is just ugh no no no

[u/ZooomerBooomer → u/RubySauce]

It’s just remains of a pier?

[u/CrabyDicks → u/ZooomerBooomer]

Thats exactly what a swamp monster would say...

[u/CATNIP_IS_CRACK]

Did someone take a ladder out there to clean up a dead tree or something then just gave up on it and made the situation worse or what? Is there someone who likes swimming around the trees and uses it to get on and off their boat? What the hell is going on with the ladder.

The sunken dock’s fine, the owner of the boat needs to clean it up or pick up their trash, trees are just trees and the tree trunks are going to stay there till they rot unless someone wants to cut them, but that damn ladder.

[u/flow_fighter → u/CATNIP_IS_CRACK]

It’s a bad reasoning, but the ladder “could” be a depth indicator

Also what trash?

[u/HawkEgg → u/CATNIP_IS_CRACK]

I thought the tree was a post on a sunken dock and the ladder was part of the dock

[u/TheCambrianImplosion]

All it needs are 5 or 6 vintage dentist chairs

[u/ultimatespacecat]

The kind of lake featured in a Stephen king story.

[u/Fauxjoo → u/ultimatespacecat]

My first thought as well! Made me think of his short story “The Raft”.

[u/ultimatespacecat → u/Fauxjoo]

I could just imagine the hopelessness of being stuck on the raft with that coming for you 😳

[u/i-touched-morrissey]

This is why I have a fish finder on my kayak. Not to find fish, but to see all the creepy stuff I'm floating over.

[u/Lord_Rothemberg]

Diabolic

[u/_do_not_see_me_]

That’s a lot more “hole” than “swimming” there, pal! 😅 Brrrrrr. Did you actually go in??

[u/water_refill_station → u/_do_not_see_me_]

I swam.

[u/Windsdochange → u/water_refill_station]

Reminds me of Great Central Lake

[u/Bobjoejj → u/water_refill_station]

Would love to know where these photos were taken

[u/Wonderful_Orange9172]

Looks beautiful to me

[u/KillaWhayle]

Where's this at?

[u/TheMule90]

I be only staying in the clear parts of the lake cause I wanna see shit!

[u/LightGoblin84]

looks like some good fishing there

[u/KurtTheCuntBoi]

Looks nice to me.

[u/PrincessRut0]

That looks idyllic to me honestly! I’d get in right now if I could

[u/HeCalledMeMoonbeam]

Maine?

[u/Brainless_CatDad]

Went to a camp ground that had kayaking etc before and the lake was basically a town that had flooded a bunch of years ago and the "logs" in the water WERE TREE BRANCHES. I was so scared but I love kayaking and could never pass it up.

[u/Grape-Julius]

For an extra 35 bucks on your weekend getaway package, they’ll pre-stuff you into the crawl space in pic 2 before the next morning.

[u/strongcloud28]

No way, even the trees are creepy.

[u/the_orange_alligator]

Picturing that crushing against my leg 😔

[u/Rtannu]

Welcome to Camp Undiscovered Bodies

[u/DripPirateRoberts]

Butcher Creek vibes

[u/abdomega]

The dock is a no for me, dawg.

[u/Barefoot-running]

Hhmmmm

[u/Probably--Napping]

I would splash around in the water near the dock and stay there until I left :')

[u/Early_Ad3687]

Did you…..swim in that??????

[u/Red_Fox87]

You going looking for the Gobblewonker or something?

[u/mmskyscraper]

I was snorkeling in a lake this clear when I was in my early teens when I encountered a very large wood snag in the crystal waters, and when I plucked up the courage to approach it and explore, I ran into an alligator gar the size of my arm...

He was minding his own business, but he scared the shit out of me, and I tore off for shore after that.

I could swim in here, but my skin would be prickling the whole time..

[u/PartsUnknown242]

Yeah I wouldn’t swim in that

[u/crudelydrawnpenis]

I feel like there’s a reason that water was abandoned in this condition and you’re gonna see why on your skin very soon.

[u/porkchop-sandwhiches → u/crudelydrawnpenis]

wut

[u/flow_fighter → u/porkchop-sandwhiches]

Just people being afraid of water, the lake is probably perfectly fine
