Unique&Amazing!Wonderful she shares all the memorabilia from way back to more recent decades!Enjoyment for all ages! Nice yard and porches and seating. Very clean.Great beds/mattresses. I loved the main bath—gorgeously done. Don’t know age of couch/chairs, but comfy to sit. Remember the gold upholstery/curtains. I always loved yellow/orange together—sunny&cheery!The gold&green kitchens!I would love to come back to the books-historical ones of all subjects. Metal/formica(??) kitchen table and padded chairs so cute,comfy,great shape—used it for preparing food. Have full dining table&chairs also & microwave. Most everything for cooking etc. I avoid plastic dishes etc.Could use some glass plates/bowls for eating/heating. There are glass Corningware(?) for cooking/ serving/ storing. Neighborhood was nice and met some friendly people. I walked my dog there. My trip was not a vacation so I’d love more time to kick back. I’m from local area nearby. Some minor suggestions: -Set of SS knives. -Would like some seat pads outside to take out/in for cleanliness (even covered in plastic). -Could use bit more counter space in kitchen. -Powder room needs a seat cover change.-Beds are high for some;maybe a step? -I desire comfort the most and would like to see some recliners for huge big screen tv in basement;even recliner couch. We have 1@50yr&38yr!Padded Rocker/footstool? -Update TVs for easier use&use TV Memorabilia insideTV. Thanks For the Welcoming&Everything! Teared Up Leaving!

Staying in this house is its own experience. My friend and I enjoyed everything about the good old days’s house and already planned on coming back for a long weekend. Melanie has put so much love and care into this house and to share it with everyone is such a special thing.

We had the most wonderful time at the Good Ol’Days house! It’s such an amazing home that transports you back in time with its incredible collection of decor and furniture from the years past. You could spend 2 days looking at the amazing display of everything in all of the rooms! It truly is an amazing home and so beautiful. The bed was so comfortable as was all of the other furniture inside and out. We enjoyed porch watching and the bunnies and birds everywhere enjoying spring weather. The welcome sign and treats and pasta dinner offered was such a special warm touch as well. This home has everything you need and more for a comfortable and fun stay and experience! We cannot wait to come back and stay again! Thank you for your warm hospitality and we just loved it here. Just what the heart and soul needed!

The kitchen was small but very functional. We were able to make our Gram's traditional pizza on her old Ovenex pans. it was a lot of fun looking around at the reminders of the Good Old Days while we got ready for my husband's 59th.

Melanie is an amazing host! I love this place! So much like going back in time. It is authentic rather than gimmicky. I can’t say enough good things. We stayed when it was decorated for Christmas but I’d love to see it as normal too. All the detail was so well executed. And it smelled like my grandmas house! This house made me feel happy, secure, loved, and hugged. Book without hesitation.

I was expecting a lot of vintage memorabilia, however what you dont see in the pictures is the large amount of religious items. I'm used to people having a few things of that nature but this was enough to make us a little uncomfortable, as we aren't catholic. Otherwise the place was clean and the kids had fun with the game room. Hosts were hospitable and communicated well.

...and then some. My family and I had such a memorable stay. Every inch of the home was packed with the sights, sounds and smells of our childhood. The house is cozy, comfortable and immaculate. One note: there is only one ac unit but plenty of fans were provided. Melanie is a very gracious host and accessible. The location was perfect for our weekend activities but honestly the best times were spent in the house, taking it all in and hours on chatting on the porch. We will definitely return!

Wonderful hostess, and a very interesting home.. You’ll have a blast down in the basement with the games and the seating in the fullscreen TV. There are reminiscence of a different time throughout the home. Who does

Family really enjoyed all of the different themes in each room. The game room was a hit! The hosts were wonderful and responsive. We were given a tour of the home on arrival, and they were quick to bring extra lighting during an unexpected power outage. We did not realize that there is also a tiny guest house on the back of the property that is available to book, and our host was able to give that guest a quick tour of the big house also. They share a parking area and a small part of the backyard space, but we rarely saw the other tenants. Booking both homes would be fun for a larger group! The big house is three stories, with game room and full bath in the basement, living area and half bath on the main floor, and three bedrooms, full bath, and laundry closet on the top floor. The kitchen space is small for cooking, but the adjacent dining room is large with plenty of seating. We also enjoyed the front porch and back patio areas. This home is a unique and fun experience!

This is by far the best VRBO experience ever! We celebrated my mom's 79th birthday as well as visiting my son who plays for the Cal football team. Walking around the house brought back so many memories! The communications from the owner were outstanding and in fact were typically responded in less than an hour. The house was extremely clean and the decorations left no detail behind. My son enjoyed the pinball machine and the arcade games and as a family we just enjoyed sitting in the living room talking. The beds were extremely comfortable. We will be staying here again for sure!

As soon as we walked in this home brought us back to our childhood! Melanie was not only a great host she went above and beyond. Such a nice family. When we return we know where we’ll be staying! At the “Time Machine” home.

We really enjoyed stepping back in time. We will be back for future visits.
