The retreat worked out beautifully for our family to spend Christmas together. It was so thoughtful they had some decorations up. The sauna and sun room were a big hits and we were able to spread out and gather as we wished. We did all our own cooking and they had everything we needed. Any unexpected question was immediately addressed. We would definitely consider coming back!

We celebrated a birthday with friends and family at Stone River Retreat and enjoyed every minute. Del was super friendly and helpful with everything. The property is gorgeous and one can tell that he put lots of thought and love into shaping the space. It's definitely not a generic vacation home. We especially loved the archery area, the sauna and kayaking on the river.

We average two vacation rentals per year. Del is a top notch host and excellent communicator. Best ever!He wants his guest to enjoy the property and it shows everywhere. So many things done right, and we cant think of a single thing the host could have done better.Best stocked property we've every stayed at. Short on nothing. My family all agree he built the best pool possible for a family. The large sauna overlooking the river was a great unexpected treat. I loved the outdoor shower. The privacy of this home is fantastic. Sound system perfect. We are looking forward to coming back next year and staying even longer. Thank you Del!

All we could ask for, then MORE

Our family had a fabulous time at this wonderful home. The house was beautiful with many pieces of unique art pieces to enhance the decor of the house. The home was well stocked with anything you would need at a vacation home such as blankets, pillows, soaps, shampoo, kitchen spices, pots, pans etc. There was so much to do at the home besides swimming in the pool or using the jacuzzi. We are able to pick and enjoy fresh tomatoes and berries, enjoy time in the sauna, fish and/or boat in the river, shoot bows and arrows near the front side of the house, enjoy nature walks, rock painting and more. To top it off Del the host is a gem. He is so kind and friendly and truly made us feel as if we were his guests.

Beautiful and serene

This was the second property we rented from Del, and he is just such a warm, gracious and generous host. He met us upon (early) arrival to walk us through the property and when we couldn’t hook up to the Sonos system, he returned back to help us troubleshoot. The property, while still a work in progress for him, is pretty amazing where it is. The pool and hot tub is set slightly above the river so there’s a true sense of privacy. The house was lovely and super clean throughout with so many spaces for our group to hangout. We’re already planning our next stay, both for the property and for its host!

Del made our experience an unforgettable one. He certainly went the extra mile in making us feel very welcome in their property. Their property was amazing. Everything was great and the Sonos sound system was a treat. Part of me wants to give them a 0 star so I can selfishly keep this listing to ourselves. But I couldn’t do that to Del.

We enjoyed our stay so very much !! It was our first family reunion and your home was perfect ....

Our first family reunion and we couldn't imagine a more perfect place . There was a surprise around every corner !! We couldn't do all the activities so will have to give it another year !! The topping on the weekend was watching a male and female Black Phoebe bring food to their babies , the nest being in eaves above outside table. We even saw the babies w mouths open , calling for more food. One negative was a wasp nest near area between lawn and river. One grandson was stung and several wasps attacked our little diog . they had to be pulled out of her fur access to River. I think I left a pair of navy , knit capris on bench at foot of bed in master bedroom....please let me know if you find them so I can arrange to get them back. All in all , we loved our time there and hope to come back !!!

About the host

Hosted by Del Smith

Host profile image
Del Smith and Jennifer Redmond partnered up to acquire the Ranch. Del is a Building Contractor. He grew up in Lodi and, in 1983, founded, developed and operated Wine and Rose Hotel and Restaurant (in Lodi) for 20 years. Del later moved on to build in the SF bay area. Del has never lost his passion for hospitality and taking care of guests. Jennifer is an attorney, partner with Sheppard Mullen law firm. She has a passion for interior design and throughout the years she has completely restored and refurbished several amazing San Francisco homes. Together we make a great team.

Why they chose this property

As a youngster, Del grew up in Lodi and spent many days adventuring the River. This is one of the best river properties in Northern California! This area has an abundancy of wildlife and nature areas to observe and study. And its not far from our other super cool 7500 sq ft 8-bedroom/ 5-bathroom Colonial Spanish style VRBO property, RedSmith Ranch #1830043

What makes this property unique

Gee, where do I start? The property is very secluded and private. Ok to turn up your music and dance outside all night long. Bring your two clean dogs! This is a kids curiosity paradise; birds, river animals, bugs, a place to truly learn and see how the cycle of animal life and the foothill eco system works.

For the adults, many wineries nearby. Great kitchen, bar, dining rooms, patios, for entertaining. Secluded Pool and Hot Tub for the privacy of clothing option swimming.

House is nearly 5,000 sq ft with spacious bedrooms and common areas. Plenty of nooks and sitting spots to enjoy private time. And night comes with dark skis for great star gazing.

What am in missing?

This property has it all!
