Opening our doors to more families in need

For 20 years, we've welcomed over 750 families facing cancer. Now, we're growing our impact — with our first staff member, a new endowment, and an expanded mission to support all life-changing pediatric illnesses. With your support, Chapel Hill House will continue to be a sanctuary of peace, hope, and connection for decades to come

Free of cost, full of fun.

Chapel Hill House is a registered 501c3 not-for-profit organization, funded completely by donations, contributions, and grants. We invite children with life-changing illnesses and their families to book our cozy cabin for a weekend adventure into the healing powers of family time, laughter, and relaxation. Whether recently diagnosed or in remission, our cabin, our amenities, including the cabin, Blue Jackets treehouse, 19th-century schoolroom, and acres of trails create a safe getaway with plenty of indoor and outdoor activities.

On 35 private and peaceful acres, the cabin and property help families get “off the grid” and connect with each other and the environment instead of devices. 

Chapel Hill House is ready for your family and has ADA compliant accommodations for many unique situations, including wheelchair ramps. We believe in nature, we believe in family, and we believe in the beauty of the basics. We have created an environment designed to promote relaxation for your family. It helps you escape from the stresses of your situation, even if just for a while, and for no cost. 

We encourage families who are recently out of treatment to stay at our facilities. If you are currently in treatment, please sign up or reach out with your contact information so that we can stay in touch. We’re here when your family is ready. 

 
 
 
 
“My belief is that we were put into this world of wonders and beauty with a special ability to appreciate them, in some cases to have the fun of taking a hand in developing them, and also in being able to help other people instead of overreaching them and, through it all, to enjoy life – that is, to be happy.”
– Robert Baden-Powell
