The Gathering Place was the perfect house for our group of friends! There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out, including much-needed space away from the group for one of us to work during our stay. We had a great time cooking and the den was perfect for both sunny yoga and ending each night watching movies together. The house was also, as promised, close to both the beach and downtown, a big plus for us!
The only downsides were that the house wasn't quite ready at our check-in time (which the host did communicate as check-in approached) and some of the utensils needed to be washed before we could use them, but there were no major problems at all!
Overall, we had a really, really great time!
