Yosemite is Calling, Low Seasonal rates, 2br/2ba

Updated home. Very sunny, on a large lot with all amenities that you may ask for :) Only 2.5 hour drive from San Francisco, 26miles to Yosemite entrance and plenty to do within 10min around. Best offer in the area! If you find a lower priced (but comparable!) home, send me what you've found! :)

* During the holidays and holiday weekend we have a 3day minimum stay * (unless it is a last moment reservation :)

We rent the house when we don't use it ourselve. We equipped it with things that we use ourselves and like. You will find comfortable beds with nice foam mattresses and good pillows. The kitchen is perfect for a regular use, but you may find it to be too small to cook for a huge party.
Living room has a wood burning stove and firewood is provided during allowed burn season. Home has central heat and a/c system. As of this moment the house has a TV screen with HDMI input. There is a Roku player that allows to stream online content like Netflix, Youtube etc. You are welcome to bring your laptop or other source of video/movies. There's no Cable TV service. As of Jan 18th, 2017 we finally got a dedicated internet line! ;) A big tree came down during the last storm and opened up a direct view to antenna tower! It is a stable 1.5Mbps (people form Bay Area don't read ;) good enough to read online, check e-mail, on-line chats, skipe/viber calls etc. It may be a bit slow for streaming HD videos, but Netflix, Youtube and alike work fine!

Summer time or when there are no rains there's a patio table with 6 chairs outside on the back deck. You are welcome to use propane grill as well.
Verizon and AT&T phones will usually work for calls/text, but 4G is not always there. New tower will be added nearby sometime soon.

You are in a community with a golf course, seasonal heated swimming pool (May-October), lake that gets really warm in summer, hiking trails near by, stables with horse rides and much more. Additional fee maybe required. I can advice on many possible day activities and places to go at different times of the year. Yosemite Park entrance is just 26miles away, but there are many other attractions in proximity. Historical Gold towns, multiple caves, Tuolumne river canyon, mountain lakes, white water rafting are just the first things that come to my mind. Upon request at an extra cost, I can arrange a power boat rental at Lake Don Pedro. ATV rentals is another potential option.

Most of the time I'm will be staying nearby, or have someone else who and can be reached by phone, text or email if you have questions, need help with anything or if the house is missing something that you believe should be there :)

The nearest store is 2miles way. Gas station about 6miles give or take. Cell phone reception is limited around the area and not all of the operators work. Verizon is best and it is still bad/ AT&T and Sprint are worse. T-Mobile is between much worse and non existent. Getting to the house is EASY, but if you have issues with navigating and are used to relying on your phone, it's time to get some off-line mapping software or a separate navigator that doesn't need cell service :). Also, as stated in description and to be 100% upfront there are a few small things that need didn't get finished at the house yet. You may see them, but most people will not. What you see in the pictures is what you get. Nothing major. Examples of "not finished" are: baseboard is not attached in a few places. Some surfaces may need a second coat of paint to be 100% visually perfect. That's about it. If you have questions, please ask.
- Pets are NOT ALLOWED unless discussed and agreed to it before arrival. $100 fine if you just deside to show with a pet + the cost of additional clean up if any. All pets if allowed to arrive have to stay off all the furniture/bedding/towels and can not be left at home alone.

- Check out time is 11AM sharp. Unless it was previously agreed upon for a later check out, there is a $20 fee for every half an hour of over staying past 11AM. We need time to get the home ready for the next arrival. Thank you for understanding.

All you have to do upon check out:
- Put all your trash in the bag/bags provided and leave those outside next to stairs.
- The dishes/kitchen utensils have to either be clean, or left in running dishwasher upon your departure. Keep in mind that dish washers are less than perfect for washing pans/pots, so I suggest washing those by hand.

There is a $50 fee that will be taken from your deposit if kitchen plates/pans/pots/cups/utensils or any other combination of those is left not washed.
The only reason I have this in writing is because lately I have too many people coming and leaving a mess in the kitchen. This is a vacation rental, not an all-inclusive resort with room service. I want you to enjoy it and offer at a very reasonable cost. All you have to do in return is be normal :) Being normal, besides regular benefits of being normal, also helps me a lot to keep the costs of operation under control which directly translates into you paying less for your vacations :)

I expect you to act as adults and keep the place reasonably clean = as if you are in your own house. If you spilled something, on the floors wipe it out. If you break or damage something, offer to pay for it. I will take out trash bags for you, but I really don't plan on picking up small and big things all over and around the house after some crazy party. Absolutely no smoking inside and within 20ft/6m of doors windows. Cleaning fee includes cleaning the house, kitchen and bathroom, sheets, towels etc. Doesn't not include washing dishes or any other kitchen stuff/utensil that you used.
