About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Gathering Place, rent the entire home

The Gathering Place reflects back to mom and dad back in 1946.
When you walk in the back entryway, pictures will tell "the rest of the story."
Spacious kitchen, three (3) bedrooms, bathroom with a shower/ tub. Large, combined dining area/living room.
Two (2) enclosed porches. Washer/dryer can be used . Off-street parking along in front of the already occupied three (3) car garage.

If your a traveling nurse, mins away from Erie hospitals, St. Vincent's, Hamot & LECOM CAMPUS. Also close to the Millcreek Mall, Presque Isle State Park and Waldameer Park & Water World and much more.

The house sits on a 3/4 lot with privacy all around the house. Quite neighborhood. If you enjoy morning walks this is the place to stay since there is very little traffic on our block.

The kitchen is spacious and the house speaks for itself since you feel welcomed into the home like it's your own.
Guest access
You'll have access to the entire house. We want you to feel welcomed as if you were back home. The back and front porches are great to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee/tea to relax in the morning before you start your day.
Other things to note
There is a fire pit in the backyard that can be used should you want to sit and have a beer or a glass of wine to end the evening. You'll find it peaceful as you listen to the night crickets as your sitting by the fire.

Great location, cool house

The property was exactly as advertised, and the owners were great. They offered many things to do when our original plans fell through. I'd absolutely stay here again if I come back to town.

We came up to Erie for the surprise proposal of our granddaughter. This place was close to the beach and the dinner afterwards. We loved all the vintage finds around the house. It was nice and quiet.

Lovely trip down memory Lane

The home made me think back to the days when my parents and grandparents were alive. Our only complaint was the many decorations that made it hard to sit without worrying that we might break something.

Blast from the Past

My sister and I made an off season visit to Erie to help settle our father into the Pennsylvania Soldier’s and Sailor’s Home. We were looking for somewhere comfortable we could relax and unwind. When we arrived, it was as though we stepped back in time to childhood and into the home of our great grandparents. The appliances, especially the old GE fridge, were amazing! The console television used as a tv stand is a relic. What a comforting, welcoming place to be! Thank you so much, Craig and Annie.

So cozy and beautiful!

My friend and I stayed three nights to do sightseeing in Erie. This beautiful cozy home was convenient to everything! Roomy, great kitchen: it truly felt like staying at my grandma’s home. Immaculately clean and well appointed, room to enjoy our meals and relax. So pleased with the property and the helpful hosts. Highly recommend!

A great stay in Erie

This house is very clean! The location was perfect for a trip to Presque Isle or downtown. The property is landscaped beautifully and was very relaxing after a day at Presque Isle. The listing represents this property very well. The owners were quick to respond when we had questions and they offer suggestions on places to visit and dine. Overall, we had a great stay at this property!

Our review

Property was in a quiet neighborhood. Interior was very clean and well stocked with everything anyone would need, large bedrooms with very firm mattresses, extra blankets and pillows, and large spaces. Backyard was well kept with ferns, flowering bushes, firepit, with the sounds of many birds and rabbits munching on grass.

Hospitable, Small, Well Located

I had a great time staying here. It was a small house but was well located, clean, and provided everything my family and I needed for our stay. I would recommend an improvement, even a mattress topper, for the full bed. Otherwise, comfortable home for a trip spent mostly roaming about the area. Very appreciative of our hosts who were communicative and accommodating. Thank you Craig and Annie!

We were in town for a fishing tournament. The house has ample boat parking. And is located a short drive to the boat ramp. This house is located in a great neighborhood. The house was very clean. The beds were comfy and the kitchen was perfectly equipped. The owners initiated contact with us and were quick to respond and help us out during our stay. I would definitely return to this property again.
