The Gathering Place
Newly remodeled and beautifully done! Everything you could possibly need was provided for, including toiletries and dish/laundry supplies. The house is small, but our group of 4 adults and 2 children were quite comfy. There is a train that passes behind the house often, but we got used to it AND every bedroom is equipped with a sound machine. Definitely recommend this property.

Christmas adventure
Wanted to find a good place in between Noah’s Ark and Creation Musuem. This was a great location and very nice neighborhood even with the train nearby. Great family restaurant right down the road and a bakery.

Very welcoming and professional
We enjoyed our stay tremendously, and appreciated that the kitchen was well stocked, everything was very clean. The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of space. We did hear the train frequently on the first night, but appreciated that the rooms were each provided with fans to help as white noise. The sleeping space is all upstairs, so this is not the place for anyone who has trouble getting up the stairs to go to bed. Overall very warm and accommodating.

Lovely Stay!
We had a great time with our family staying at The Gathering Place on our recent trip to see the Ark Encounter and the Creation Museum. It was the perfect location - halfway between the two attractions. The home was comfortable, beautifully decorated and equipped with everything we needed! The only downside was the train traffic - but this was mentioned upfront and it's not something that can be helped. Everything about the house itself, the communication with the owner, the ease of renting and checking in, etc...was fantastic!

Great location, great house!
The house is very clean and is the best supplied kitchen I have ever seen. The kitchen tools and appliances were spotless and plentiful.. There are train tracks just beyond the backyard and trains do past through all day and night and blow the whistle. All bedrooms are upstairs, so it may not be ideal for those who cannot handle stairs.
