Great direction and property description. Easy check in and felt right at home. I’m pretty sure my grandmother had some of the same wallpaper. Lots of space, comfortable seating and nice areas to watch tv, sit in the closed in front porch and read or play games. Easy walk to town for shopping or to visit a pub.
Great vintage vibe, felt clean, and had comfy beds. Not a fan of the carpet in the upstairs bathroom, but it fits the theme. Perfect location- would stay again!
My brother and I brought our kids to Gaylord for a junior golf tournament at tree tops. The 4 of stayed at mellow yellow and really enjoyed it. It is on the right side of town for going to tree tops, but very close to downtown so we could walk to dinners. Perfect location and comfortable home at a great price.
Old school house. Exactly what the pictures and description showed. Great location for walking downtown Gaylord to many great restaurants and events. Also in great place for golf - Treetops and Boyne. Petoskey is a simple 40 minute drive. Would stay there again!
Cute home. Convenient location. Spacious. Stocked with linens and toiletries. Beds comfortable. Lawn needed mowed. Need better cookware. Would be more presteable if the very old carpet was removed and the curtains were hung properly
Six brothers and sisters, and some spouses, gathering again to the area that continues to call us from time to time. Our local family members joined us for some meals and as we sat around the big oval table that was stretched out to it’s max it truly felt like “home”. The space throughout was perfect, warm and welcoming. Thank You Nikki and Chad for creating and sharing such a wonderful walk back in time, God willing we hope to return again in the spring🙏

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
It was difficult to find the house and get inside due to all the exterior and interior and exterior lights being off. House was very cold when we arrived. Chad responded fairly quickly when he was notified of the thermostat issue. Very hot upstairs and rather chilly downstair made for uncomfortable sleep and chilly bathrooms for getting ready in the morning. House is spacious and has lots of space, so guests aren't on top of one another.
with 3 common areas to lounge in and a large kitchen this property is very enjoyable for small groups of friends or family. We were there in colder weather so did not have an opportunity to enjoy the outdoor amenities.
Mellow yellow is a great place to stay! It was so cute and convenient
Mellow yellow was decorated in a 1967 style but with all the modern conveniences, just 1967 look to them. We went skiing and we were three minutes from the ski lodge. The rooms were huge the furniture was comfortable. The towels were high quality, everything we needed was there. I would definitely stay there again.
Loved this house so much! Nothing but positive things to say! The space, decor, and "step back in time" (in a good way) feel! Clean, comfortable beds, spacious kitchen & living room.
Everything on our agenda was within 5-10 minutes away! Walked to a nearby park a few times. Owners respond very quickly. Highly recommend - would definitely stay here again!
