Charted Way Foundation provides individuals and families who have experienced life-threatening medical hardship the means to rest, recover and revive at the lake.

"Our family had an amazing time relaxing and experiencing the lake, lake house, and exploring the area. As it turns out, we probably should have been vacationing at the lake all along. I’m sure you understand how relaxing and free from the hustle and bustle of a tourist town this experience was. No pressure, just quality family time. The house was great! The boat rental and customer service were excellent. We are so appreciative of Charted Way for providing us with this opportunity. While we wish we had never had to go through this horrible cancer journey, we are thankful for the many relationships we have gained throughout the journey and the recovery."

"Again, we can't thank you enough for such a thoughtful way to support families like us who are navigating a new path, one that has a big hole missing. We had not taken the step to go away on a vacation, and this trip gave us an opportunity to do something fun again."

"Our respite at Angel's Cove-Lake Gaston was wonderfully and thoughtfully planned. The house was well stocked and the property was beautiful, peaceful, and relaxing - surrounded by nature, yet close to shops and restaurants. The pontoon boat was so much fun and the staff at Stonehouse Timber Lodge was informative and kind. We loved taking the boat out, especially in the early mornings and evenings when it was so tranquil and still. We could have not asked for a more relaxing, restful experience and we are incredibly grateful for the opportunity and the work of Charted Way."

"Thank you all so much - Nate had so much fun fishing, tubing, driving the boat and swimming. Our last day was the best day because we spent the whole morning at Wobble Island and had the entire place to ourselves for over an hour! Nate said several times how it was the best day ever - he got his life jacket and snorkel on and explored the entire time we were there. We got to spend multiple days with both sets of grandparents cooking, boating and playing games. It was an amazing week and we are so appreciative of you all and your foundation."

"We cannot thank you and Charted Way enough for the blessing that was our week at Lake Gaston. The home you selected for us could not have been more perfect and the area itself is just stunning. We very much enjoyed the peaceful views and the many opportunities for fun together as a family. Having the boat rental included was such a gift! We had a blast tubing, fishing, hanging out at Goat Island, and exploring so much of the lake. It was a much-needed time of rest and reconnection for all of us."

"Thank you guys for blessing my family with such a gift. We as well as our guests, couldn’t stop talking about how awesome this property was. Thank you for the boat rental as well! There is nothing quite like being on lake time! Our hearts are full and souls a little rejuvenated! Alesha was so active on this vacation and we are greatly blessed for that. She had a few rough mornings and evenings, but thoroughly enjoyed herself! Things couldn’t have been more perfect."

"We truly enjoyed our time to rest and relax and recharge as a family. We loved every bit of our stay. The VRBO fit our needs and we absolutely loved all of the outdoor landscape and boat house. Those features made our stay! The pontoon boat was so nice for us! We drove around sight seeing, swam in the water, and did some fishing. I woke up every morning and went to the boat house and enjoyed the peacefulness. We are truly grateful for our time we got to spend together."

"It was such a needed time for us to breathe and just be together. Reese loved swimming every single day! All three of the girls were total mermaids all week. We are so grateful for the time. The house and location were fantastic. We enjoyed being able to go to Washburn's and get ice cream while out on the boat. And the girls had a great time making smores in the back yard. Everything you all supplied us with from the goodie bag all the way to the stay and boat were so appreciated."
