Speaking of hiking, there are miles of trails, including a 1.5 mile path connecting to the Appalachian Trail. For quiet time, there are many secluded spots on the property where you can just relax and listen to the sounds of nature.

TROUT FISHING

Enota's stocked trout pond is a great place for the kids to catch a fish or to catch dinner.  We can supply you with the poles and no license is required.  This is a catch and keep pond only with everything you catch at $6.00 per pound.  Stocked with about 500 trout averaging 1.25 pounds.
