Charleston Lake is important to me because that’s where I spent the summers with my grandparents. I love it up there. It’s a beautiful, and big lake, with islands on it. It is northeast of Kingston.
My grandparents bought the cottage in 1971. My teen years there were in the 80’s and now my kids enjoy it as well. We boat, my daughter and son are learning how to white board, and knee-board. I haven’t mastered white board yet. They are fifteen and twelve, so it is a perfect age for them, and they love it up there. They wouldn't be anywhere else in the summertime.
