We had a wonderful visit to EI. The house was just as pictured - clean, well appointed, and good access to the beach and local shopping. We already booked for next year!
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
Great location and beach access. Layout of the house is great, nice game room downstairs. Lots of porches, some covered. House was comfortable with good beds! We would return.
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.
We had a very nice time. The property worked really well for my family. There was plenty of room for everyone and the rec room was great. Thanks so much to the property owner for being very accessible and answering all of the questions we had.
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.
The cleanest VRBO we have ever stayed at. The property provided everything we would need at the beach. Kitchen was fully stocked to cool anything you wanted. Quick walk to the beach that my toddler could even do. Quiet and nice neighborhood. Short drive to all the attractions.
Gorgeous property with ocean views from top bedrooms and balcony. Modern well-equipped kitchen. Great game room with lots of fun games. House had lots of cozy sofas and chairs for relaxing . Many rooms and balconies allowed for conversation or private spots to relax. We all loved it here.
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.
My husband and I went down for the weekend with a group of friends. The house was close proximity to the beach, which made walking super simple. The house was clean and ready for us. The Gathering Place was great for our group.
The place was clean and beautiful! It was so close to the beach we walked all the time. My group of friends had a wonderful time. Robin was super communicative about our stay. I would definitely love to stay here again!
