What a wonderful experience. It is like stepping back back in time. To be able to stay in a Lustron was so fun and it is set up very well - we played games, listened to records (there was a new tv but we didn't use it). I saw the exhibit at the Ohio History Center in Columbus (it is closed for rehabilitation) and fell in love with these homes. You can walk to the square in Mt. Vernon (the Alcove is a lovely dinner spot) and there are a number of bars and other restaurants. To think the house is over 75 years old. For the reviewers that complained it was old - that is the point. I am glad the furnishings are period appropriate and not new. Highly recommend for an unique experience.

Book it! We thoroughly enjoyed this house. It's very cool and kitschy, like being in a time capsule. Everything was clean and the bed sheets are so soft. There is definitely internet and a tv in the main room. It's an easy short walk to town. It's located right behind a church in a safe neighborhood with a basketball hoop right across the street. If you're looking for cozy, relaxing, affordable and cool - this is it!

We were so happy to have a place to stay near Mount Vernon in Gambier, Ohio. Walking into this house felt like walking into the 1950s so if you like that kind of nostalgia, this is the house for you. Did not have any Wi-Fi available. The host was very friendly and easy to communicate with.

Historic House

The house has an interesting history, made of metal and specifically for veterans. It was built in the early 50s and comes complete with some of the era’s decor.

The property does welcome pets. Be aware that they have to be crated if you leave them unattended. I must have missed that requirement on the website.

Wonderful Opportunity in Historic Home

We had a comfortable stay (the a/c was appreciated during some hot August days) and loved being in this unique property. Beautiful flowers planted outside and nice to have an off-street parking space. Easy walk to downtown Mt Vernon.

Awesome period home.

This was a fantastic property for anyone interested in Lustron homes. It is very well renovated and is decorated in period decor. It was a true highlight of our bike trip on the OTET trail. The home is well laid out and offers a washer and dryer.

This is a fun stay. The Lustron House is a blast from the past. It wasn't the cleanest but I think that is mainly just because it is 70 years old. Nicely located and appointed with all the vintage touches. Wifi isn't very good.

I would like to know exactly what you found not clean so that we can address the problem. The housekeeper is concerned.

Fun historical feel

We loved staying here and learning all about the history of these homes that were designed & built in the 1950's. It was perfect for tea and card games and family bonding. Note that there's no TV, which we actually appreciated! (There is Internet access, however!)

Step Back into the 1950’s!

The house was like stepping back into the 1950’s - rotary phone, box tv, etc We loved it as we grew up in the 50’s. The house was comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. We weren’t there that much as we were attending the reunion weekend at nearby Kenyon College but it was convenient and lovely.

The house was convenient to the venue where we had reservations for a dinner show. It was charming and clean, except for the unflushed toilet when we arrived. I had messaged the host on the vrbo site on 3/27 with a question about our stay, and never got a response. The front porch light didn't work, and we had difficulty getting the heating system to work. It got unseasonably cold the night we stayed, and we were uncomfortable while trying to get the house warmed up.

I’ve forwarded your issues with the porch light and the toilet to the housekeeper. I am somewhat bewildered how the toilet was left unflushed. Our apology though. Please come again.

Thank You!

I loved the house. It is larger inside than it appears. I liked that it was restored so people can see the past. I am so happy that I found a comfortable place that allowed me to have my pups with me. I plan on coming back at least 2 times a year. THANK YOU!

Lustron

This was a dog friendly rental—and over-priced for that reason ?? Part of the fee was listed as a donation which we appreciated. The house is easy walking to stores and restaurants/bars. The interior is too cluttered for us and the bed felt like it was from 1950 !!Needs to be replaced along with the bedding—cotton please

We are sorry that you were not totally satisfied but as a house that sleeps 5 plus a sofa no one has ever said it is overpriced. As for the bed, it was purchased new 2 years ago. I know that some people like soft, medium or hard mattresses and one mattress can not be all three. Personal when I travel I take along a foam square to customize my experience if necessary and frequently even in trendy hotels l have found it necessary to use it. Phyllis
