Is the phrase "English-learning fanatics haunt" natural in English?

"Haunt" is defined as "a place often visited".

====================

Do you visit the English corner often? I observe the environment there is perfect.
Yes I do. It is English-learning fanatics haunt and my favorite hangout.
 
The phrase almost works. It needs an article and an apostrophe to be correct.
 
Do you mean the indefinite article?

Let's let GoodTaste work out whether it's the definite or the indefinite article that needs to be added, shall we? GoesStation has clearly stated that an article is required.
 
This is like being involved in a game, but I don't get to play.

Surely with "an" is better:

It is an English-learning fanatics haunt.

PS. Some fanatics whine for that they are so crazy in learning English as to forget how to properly use their mother language. Some Chinese people living in English-speaking countries increasingly feel difficulty to correctly write out Chinese characters.

See if you agree to my edits.
 
Do you mean this?

The apostrophe seems to be omittable.

The Chinese may not be the only fanatics, so the indefinite article works better for me.
