Pine Glenn Cove is a private vacation retreat, also known by various other names, including Hatch's Camp, Forest Hills, the Nunnery and St. Anne's Retreat. The property is located in Logan Canyon, Utah. Pine Glenn Cove is the largest private retreat in Cache National Forest and Logan Canyon, and the only one with a swimming pool. It has a long, rich history. Started by a wealthy businessman in the early 1910s, it was later expanded by his descendants. It was most famously owned by the Catholic Church in the later half of the 20th century and used as a spiritual retreat for nuns.
Much folklore surrounds the camp, citing tales of pregnant nuns, infanticide, satanic worship, and hell-hounds. The camp made it on national headlines in October 1997 when 2 different groups of teenagers (one group of 8 and one group of 30 later in the night) were herded into the empty swimming pool, tied up, and harassed by three shotgun wielding watchmen. Hatch's Camp was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on December 27, 2006. The camp is privately owned and in a restoration process to be opened up to the public at a future date. St. Ann's Retreat is allegedly haunted and it was featured on an episode of Travel Channel's Ghost Adventures.
