Enchanted Hills property was a mill in the late 1800โs. We have a large natural spring creating stunning waterfalls and a 1 acre pond. The spring averages over 3 million gallons per day and is never dry! The home was built in 1936 by Springfield attorney Elijah Bates, and in 1950 my great grandparents, Pearl & Herman Hoffmeister bought the home & property. My dad, Steffan and his sister Lesda, would spend their Summers here visiting from California and their grandparents recognized the love Steffan had for this magical place. Upon their passing, Enchanted Hills was left to Steffan in 1994 and he moved our family here from CA. In 1996 my mom Laura had the wonderful idea to begin hosting weddings here to help pay for upkeep of the land, and although she has since moved out of state, I still remember helping her with weddings here when I was just a young child! I took the business over in 2009 and now my dad and I continue to sink our hearts into Enchanted Hills and reap the rewards of witnessing so many lovely unions! I hope we can be witness you to yours.
