Home away from home

This rental amazed myself and others as it felt like a private home. Very stocked with everything you need to cook with, serve with and so much more. I loved the beds and pillows. A very restful week waking with no pins at all. The adult kids loved using the boogie board available to us. If I get the chance to return I will see if this property is available first. Easy walk to the beach.

Perfect beach house!

To begin with, the owner of the home is a pleasure to deal with. Incredibly responsive and helpful. We have a large friend group and we always struggle to find a home that we all love and this one checked all the boxes. We all loved it, it fit us perfectly, super short walk to the beach, and a well equipped kitchen. We haven’t said this about any other home we have stayed in, but we will certainly be booking the home again.

Great house!

Stayed for a week and it was perfect. Lots of areas to hang out. Had 5 teens and the basement was a huge hit to retreat while the adults stayed upstairs. Only a 2 minute walk to beach and close distance to restaurants and grocery store. I would definitely stay here again

The Gathering Place was perfect for everyone in attendance. It was roomy, clean and everything was included in the package that we needed. The only complaint that we had was the beds were a little high and soft, but everyone managed just fine. Our stay was great! We would rent this property again in the future.

Excellent place to stay in Emerald Isle

The Gathering Place was an excellent place to stay for our group. The property has been renovated recently and is in a great location just a few minutes walk from the beach. All rooms were nicely appointed and there were clear instructions for check-in and check-out. The downstairs flex space was a great place to hang out and play several types of games. The kitchen was equipped with everything and there was a bag of dishwasher pods, laundry pods, and a few rolls of toilet paper as well. The grill was also a great feature of the property. We hope to come back again!

Beautiful property, very clean, great location. Wished we could have sat outside when it rained but nothing fully covered. Middle floor was uncomfortable due to air conditioning temperature limits. Basement was very cool. Upper levels not so much. Otherwise, it was a great vacation.
