100% accurate as advertised, immaculately clean, fully-stocked kitchen with high-end pots/pans & gadgets, check-in/check-out is effortless, short driving distance to the Yosemite entrance. John's property is located in a very secluded, nicely maintained and quiet neighborhood. We spent most of our time in the backyard, enjoyed the scenery and serenity of the 5 acre property. We walked around the cul-de-sac and past the one-car bridge. Very welcoming neighbors acknowledged us with a wave. John was nice enough to complement our stay with Mariposa coffee. He also provided us with luxurious linens and towels. We really have nothing negative to say but the best vacation rental by owner we have ever been. The only regret we have is we did not stay long enough.
If there is something small I can suggest for you to add (but you don't need to) to your home, is something small for pets since you allow pets (dogs for us), maybe hooks for the leash and/or bowl mats.
John is also very responsive when you contact him or have a question for him. He responds immediately.
We will recommend John and his Valley Oaks Vacation rental to our family and friends and will surely use again when we are back in town.
