Ghost Towns, Seneca, Arizona

Seneca Lake Trading Post and Resort
Discovered this abandoned resort with cabins, a large restaurant and bar, gas station and trading post next to Seneca Lake on the Apache Reservation just north of globe.

History:
Back in the early 1970s, the San Carlos Apache Tribe built a resort and recreational facility called cinema park. The location cost $524,000 to build with plans to build an 80 unit motel and possibly a golf course and riding stables the following year. The plans came to a screeching halt when the tribe defaulted on payment to their lenders. It didn't take long for the lenders to go out and take back all of the stuff like restaurant equipment. This place was abandoned in the late 70s.
