The Gathering Place | Family Spot | Best Location
Welcome to The Gathering Place
A spaciously designed ranch-style home designed for family, connection and convenience to all that SD has to offer!
Tucked away on a quiet residential street in San Diego’s historic Point Loma, The Gathering Place is more than a place to stay, it’s a thoughtfully curated space where friends and family can slow down, reconnect, and savor everything this iconic coastal city has to offer.
From spacious, light-filled interiors to a backyard made for memory-making, this home was designed with togetherness in mind.
Where Everyone Has Room to Relax:
The home comfortably accommodates up to nine guests with three full bedrooms plus a bonus playroom that doubles as a cozy fourth sleeping space.
Primary Suite: A true retreat. California king bed, private ensuite bathroom, sitting area, walk-in closet, and smart TV, ideal for late-night movies or a quiet morning coffee.
Bedroom Two: Twin-over-full bunk with plush bedding, dresser, and closet. Perfect for siblings or cousins to pile in.
Bedroom Three: Queen bed, a curated reading nook, and a sunlit sitting area. Simple, serene, and spacious enough for adults or teens.
Bonus Room / Playroom: Accessible from the backyard, this flexible space includes a pull-out double bed. Whether used as a quiet escape or extra guest room, it adds versatility to your stay.
A Kitchen That Brings People Together:
The heart of the home is an open-concept kitchen and living area that flows seamlessly from cooking to lounging.
- Large central island with seating for eight
- Fully stocked kitchen with cookware, utensils, and essentials
- Dining area with room for the whole crew
- Comfy sectional for group hangouts or movie nights
- Central air conditioning and high-speed WiFi throughout
Your Private Backyard Oasis:
Step outside to find a backyard that feels like an extension of the home—equal parts play and peace. Whether you`re dining al fresco or watching the kids run wild, the space is ready for everything from lazy afternoons to lively evenings.
- Outdoor dining table with seating for eight
- Kids’ playhouse, basketball hoop, and soccer goal
- Outdoor shed stocked with beach gear, games, strollers, boogie boards, and a beach wagon
- Fully fenced and private, ideal for families with young children
Parking and Check-In Made Easy:
