The Old River Country water park was empty for over 20 years. When a video historian (so they call themselves) snuck in and took massive videos and posted on the internet Disney freaked at the possible liability if some kid broke in and was seriously hurt/killed. That is the single biggest reason they decided to build Reflections, to eliminate the remains of River Country. I can only think the reason Discovery Island has been left to rot is that it is hard to get to. There are reports that Disney has one Cast member stationed on the Island with binoculars and a bull horn (when Parks are Open) to make sure no one attempts to land and explore.
