The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, glossy quartz countertops, ample cabinetry with fully stocked cookware, dinnerware and glassware. Four counter stools are seated at the extended countertop creating the perfect spot for mealtime or a game of cards.

The modern bathroom features a glass walk-in shower with niche, sleek vanity, front lit LED mirror and Moen hardware.

- Quiet hours are from 10pm to 8am everyday.

We had an amazing stay at Steve’s place! From the moment we booked, Steve was incredibly responsive and helpful in answering all our questions.He went above and beyond by offering complimentary early check-in and late check-out, which we really appreciated. We arrived late at night and had trouble finding the unit in the dark, but the onsite contact, Betty, was extremely kind and came out to help us navigate to the condo.The unit itself was cozy, clean, and very comfortable. My family was visiting the U.S. for the first time and said this was far more comfortable than a typical hotel stay. Free parking was a great bonus, and most trailheads and starting points in Yosemite were only about a 20-minute drive away.When we realized a few toiletries were missing, Steve and Betty handled it right away and left them at our door within an hour. We also had a small issue with a towel holder that ended up damaged, and Steve was very understanding about it.Overall, this was a perfect base for exploring Yosemite. We had a wonderful vacation, and I will absolutely make this my preferred place to stay for future trips. Highly recommend!
