    Ture Georgia Tradition

    November 15, 2011

    Serenity and sanctitude of the place will keep me coming to Enota time and again. Enota is an experience with sprit of service and testament to preservation of that which is humanity. If you are looking to reconnect, rekindle, or just want to feel the presence and grace of nature this is the place for you. Facilities are particularly designed to enhance the experience of closeness to each other and nature. I stayed in the motel room by the waterfall. The rooms are cosy and give a cabin like feel. Perfect place for families or if you want to get away from that city life and reclaim all that is truly important in life. Enota: paradise in Georiga for tradition and hospitality. For me this is the space for inner journey to divinity that starts at the front desk of the loge. A special thanks to Swan, Jennifer and Pam.

    WOW Weekend

    August 09, 2011

    My husband and I found a little slice of hidden beauty when we discovered Enota Retreat just south of Hiawassee, GA. Nature at its best along with the best hospitality that can be offered. With a campground full of guests, Swan, the owner/director, offered a dinner and breakfast to all of the guest who wanted a very healthy, well-prepared meal at a reasonable rate. Fun for the children, young and old, in so many ways - holding and learning bunnies, goats, petting horses, actually milking a real cow, playing in the creeks, fishing for trout, jumping on the unique trampolines, hiking trails to see pristine woodlands and waterfalls, group bonfires with singing, and picking fresh vegetables are some of the opportunities that Enota Retreat offers. I know that I am blessed to have had a chance to experience nature and kindness at Enota Retreat. DeeDee R

    Orientation Leader Group Trip

    March 20, 2011

    Enota Campground is located in the middle of the national forest surrounded by streams and waterfalls, the scenery was beautiful, calming and relaxing. The staff was wonderful and they went out of their way several times to make sure that our trip was beyond amazing. The cabins were clean when we arrived and the food was served on time and very good. The farm tour was great, even as an adult, the staff were very informative and allowed to be involved with the animals. It is a great place to go if you are looking to get away for awhile.

    Relaxing Retreat

    February 25, 2011

    My family of 4 visited Enota during the slow season, but were treated like royalty. Everyone we met was super friendly and accommodating. We felt like Spirit the dog was our personal tour guide through the farm and waterfalls. The grounds are beautiful and the animals were so fun! I can't wait to go back during the summer and see the organic garden and activities. They are doing some renovating, but don't let that distract you from the hidden treasure of Enota!

    Great stay in a winter wonderland

    January 30, 2011

    Our stay in waterfall room (#13) was absolutely magical! We arrived in a Christmas snowstorm and were given free dinner by Victor (ham, potatoes, pumpkin pie)... our room was so cozy and clean, the property is heaven on earth! I would recommend this place to all nature lovers. We will return again and again!

    Unexpected Delight!

    January 10, 2011

    A last minute get away led us to Enota. This was a beautiful place and I'm choosing to create a review so that others can learn about this place. Enota Retreat Center is really a hidden treasure. The cabin was wonderful, clean, rustic but modernized. The grounds were impeccible, the staff sweet. There was more to do than we had time to enjoy which is why we will return very soon, and take others as well. They had RV facilities, tent sites and recreational facilities. I've never seen an "in ground" trampoline, which is really cool because you don't have to worry about falling off! Enota has 3 breath taking water falls and the whole place was just pristine. I'm going to plan some camps and retreats at Enota. Way nice!
