Two boarded up houses on the side of Teston Rd. There is a long path in the back which leads to an old barn. The inside of the barn is easily accessible, but take caution as there are objects falling through the ceiling of the structure. A tree had fallen beside the barn and underneath is a beaten up pick-up truck.
UPDATE** (by electricfuneral) I visited the location again and the houses are still boarded up shut. It is obvious that someone had attempted to remove the boards but failed in doing so. I went back to the barn and it looks different now that there is no snow on the ground. The truck is easier to access and there is more to explore than previously known. In the back of the barn-like structure there were a few treasures that I found quite interesting. The person I had gone with claimed there was an animal making seemingly angry noises when they entered a certain area of the barn, so we left immediately. This occurrence happened near the chest in the very back of the structure.
March 2018 (kat666g) Visited this awesome location, intact TVs, computers, and tons of personal belongings. I did not see the truck, however. When I arrived, the boards appeared to be kicked in at the bottom and there was no issue getting in. Overall a great explore, I recommend you visit if you want to check out all the old stuff left behind.

There was once a third house (an old log cabin) at the back of this property near the barn, apparently called the "James Calhoun Cabin". It was demolished or collapsed around 2009-2011, a few years before the rest of the property was cleared.
