About this property

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.

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.
The owners were extremely communicative and responsive to our individual requests and provided additional items to assist an older member of the group. The home was clean and had everything needed for our stay. Conveniently located to the airport and presque isle state park.
Would highly recommend to others considering a stay here
The house was bigger than expected, the house was clean and the host was very responsive to our question. We are already looking at dates for next year for our fishing trip!

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.

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.
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!
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.
The property was as advertised, it was like stepping back into my grandmothers home. The communication and check in process was easy and effortless. It did not have ac which was not listed but had many fans and stayed cool considering outside temperatures. The property was clean and maintained. Just for reference as I appreciate the information when I’m looking at properties the beds were very firm.
I'll start by saying we couldnt of asked for better hosts. They were extremely prompt on replying back on every message i sent leading up to our stay. We came up to fish for a couple days and there was tons of room in the driveway for a boat just like they said. They were very catering to our needs and i couldnt ask for better. As far as the place goes nice neighborhood and very nostalgic with an entire antique presence throughout the entire house. It was pretty cool to feel and see all of the history inside. It was just two of us so it was way more house than we needed, but that is a good thing. I was very happy with my experience
My best recommendation is that this property will be the first I seek out when I travel to Erie again. It was so homey and comfortable - our hosts thought of everything to make for a wonderful stay. It was too chilly for us Floridians to take advantage of the yard, but would have loved to. I took the king bed while my sister took the double. We both slept great. The king is quite firm but I like that. The antique-like fridge and microwave brought us both back in time. And the TV!! We didn't watch, but it felt so nostalgic to see one of those big box TVs with rabbit ears. I felt like I was back at Grandma's, and for me, being with Grandma was the best time of my life. The location is peaceful, but close to roads to get anywhere. Great stuff nearby - shopping, restaurants, fishing/sports for those who want it. A score of 100+%!

Absolutely spotless, owners were so kind and understanding, it was beautifully decorated and cozy and had everything i needed, would love to stay here again, thank you so much for the opportunity to stay here.
It was as if I had stepped back into my grandmother's house, very mentally nostalgic! If we are in the area again, will not hesitate to stay here again.
My family and I really enjoyed our stay at this house. It was very well kept and everything was neat as a pin, and it was exceptionally clean. The location was great. The host was wonderful to deal with and communication was excellent.We would definitely stay here again.
Everything was great. House was like traveling back to grandma and grandpas house but Ina great way. Comfortable , lot of space and just enough quirky original things that made it memorable.
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.
