The house itself is beautiful with a great, open layout for large groups to have enough space for everyone (group of 30+) while still feeling connected. The host was excellent with communication and was very helpful during the reservation process and throughout our entire stay. 10/10 would recommend.

Rented for a week to spend Christmas with family. Beautiful home with ample space. The owners were awesome and went above and beyond when we had an issue.

It was wonderful experience staying at this property. Perfect for family with kids. Our kids loved it !!! so did adults 😁😁. We wished we could stay another night. only thing we missed was the christmas tree 😪😪

Aimee was amazing and always quick to respond. Plenty of room for a family get together. Great location

It had everything to make us all have a great time. Location, size, sleeping spaces we found no faults!!

Everything about our stay was on point. Easy renting experience, property owner was very responsive with our questions, concerns and very timely with information. The home was great and had a lot of room for our group. It’s located in a nice secluded area with easy access to the freeway and the lake. The property was clean and ready when we arrived. The property does have some wear and tear with some of the furniture which could easily be fixed with a once through with a handyman but otherwise in great shape. The home was stocked with plenty of supplies for prepping food. We really enjoyed are stay and will absolutely consider renting during the summer time to enjoy the lake.

First things first: the lodge is perfect for large groups. We used it for a company retreat and it was a great space for that purpose. Some of our favorite aspects of this rental were: the large table, the multiple stories, the nets, the 75 inch TV's mounted on the wall, the comfortable living area furniture. Some things we were not fans of: when we arrived we noticed a steady water leak from the freezer half of the fridge in the kitchen. When it was opened the whole back of the freezer was leaking water and had frozen. We couldn't find the TV remotes in any normally accessible area so we looked between the cushions. Clearly this isn't a regular task performed by the cleaning crews because we found some nasty stuff there. Well, at least we found the TV remote! Left it on the sill, by the way. Most of the beds were reported to be stiff and creaky. Fortunately we didn't want our team to get too comfortable as we had business to attend to. Also, at multiple moments during the day and evening we noticed the Ring camera active. I can't confirm this (nor do I want to) but I strongly suspect the host was listening to our conversations. As this was a company retreat, we were discussing sensitive information on the patio when the ring IR sensors lit up out of nowhere. We didn't like that. Here's the thing. This is a fantastic lodge, but at over $3,000 for just two nights there was just too much to be desired. It has so much potential; with the right property development and tying up of loose ends this place is a NorCal palace. Finally, make sure you read the listing thoroughly.

Lots of beds, great kitchen, highly recommended for a large gathering. No negatives!!!

very nice. Thank you!

This place worked out really well for our huge group. Lots of space to hang out inside and a just short drive to the lake to spend our days. Kitchen with two dishwashers and tons of plates and utensils was so nice to have! We usually camp so this place felt luxurious and so convenient. My only recommendations would be that it needs window coverings in the bedrooms. The coffee machine was faulty and kept overflowing. The other appliances were great. And it needs to have better knives, large cutting boards and large bowls for prepping and serving meals. We struggled with that when cooking for ~30 people and wished we’d brought some of our large serving supplies. Overall a wonderful cabin for large groups and we will be back!

The house is beautiful and wonderful for hosting groups for students. It is located right next to the lake with places to rent boats and activities like going to the caverns. Host responds promptly to questions. Very satisfied with our stay and our group of kids raved about how cool and private the place was

Aimee's property was magnificent! The amenities were as described and the property was very accommodating to my group. It was very spacious and provided plenty of room for our group to interact. The pool table and foosball table provided endless hours of fun for the kids in the group. The single slab redwood table was definitely the "gathering" spot for us all this past weekend. Thank you for a wonderful stay Aimee!!

Our family reunion was held at this beautiful place. Place was big enough to accommodate our families. Aimee was very quick to respond to my questions.

The stay at the gathering place was stunningly amazing. My church group of 30 people stayed there for 4 days around mid-to-late March and this place was literally the perfect place for us to stay. - First of all, the place is so beautiful! When my friends came, they kept saying "wow"s. Decorations in the living room area, warm lights, large tables to hang out and dine, amazing kitchen were all perfect for us to enjoy our trip away from the city. - There were plenty of beds. If some beds are shared, 32 people can comfortably fit. AND the third floor has really cute beds for kids - this was perfect for 2 kids that went along with us. - Outside has an awesome fire pit area so we were able to have campfire time and make marshmallows. (there is an inn close by so we were quiet when we were outside from 10pm-ish) - it's super close to Lassen and moutain Shasta as well as Shasta lake and Shasta Cavern. And it's close to the redding downtown as well, so we were able to not only explore all the nature areas but also enjoy the convenience of the reddint downtown - Aimee was sooo accommodating to our group and she is so fast in communication. So it was so easy to work with. I will definitely recommend to stay at this property to anyone. In fact, I told all of my church friends and I would definitely come back here.

Aimee and Andrew were very kind and considerate hosts. They were very communicative and were always happy to help make our stay as comfortable as possible. This home was new, clean, and in great shape. I appreciate their customer service and would most definitely be interested in returning for another stay at The Gathering Place.
