Discovery Island is right across from River Country sitting surrounded by the lake. You can see it from the Fort Wilderness boat dock, the Contemporary, and from parts of the Wilderness Lodge. Discovery Island right now looks like a huge overgrown piece of land and there are a couple interesting looking "shipwrecks" placed on the outside. I never heard any 'official' word but from what I thought it was that the lake water was too unstable to support River Country as a water park. It was probably a mix of things, I miss it though River Country was one of my favorite things in all of WDW.
