Coco Key Water Resorts promised affordable indoor water park fun, but behind the tropical theme was a history of health violations, failed inspections, financial collapse, and shocking safety problems. In this video, Peter takes a deep dive into the rise and fall of the Coco Key chain, examining its history and how an ambitious business model unraveled. We'll look at why so many locations became infamous for all the wrong reasons.
Some call it a real-life Goob Lagoon.
Locations include states like Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, Missouri, Nebraska, New Jersey and Ohio too.
We'll crack down on this place using inspection reports, news coverage, industry publications, and firsthand accounts, we'll explore the chain's troubled history, including chemical burns, broken disinfection systems, condemned properties, abandoned water parks, and the few locations that still survive today.
