This has to be one of the best homes we have ever rented! The house itself is so spacious, so many seating areas. Outside areas are fantastic, we enjoyed playing all the games and using the hot tub. Del was extremely welcoming and everything was explained well. We will be back!

The country villa was so beautiful. The landscape was amazing with a vegetable and rose garden. Del and Jennifer thought of everything imaginable for a delightful stay. It was festive in fall colors with assorted pumpkin decor throughout the entire property. The amenities were unique and thoughtful. They were very helpful with a listing of local food vendors and caters for a smooth, carefree family gathering. Until next time Del. Thank you!

We recently held an intimate wedding here and when we arrived at the property, our immediate thought was “this is EVEN BETTER than the photos online.” Del was so helpful during booking & planning, and when we arrived, Del’s partner Marne became our contact throughout our stay and was quick to respond and help us with anything that we needed. As our stay was at the end of October, we missed a lot of the flowers on the property, but that didn’t detract from the beauty of the grounds. Unfortunately, it was a little too cold to use the pool, but the hot tub was a highlight. Also, the house comes with so many fun outdoor games and activities! The house was a homey space that felt lived in and we felt so comfortable just being there and using it as a home is meant to be used. It was clear that comfort and fun were priorities in designing and decorating the house. The kitchen was very well appointed, and there was plenty of seating for our large family. The bedrooms were clean, comfortable, and roomy. And despite the number of people staying in the house, they were quiet – guests could sleep even if people were still enjoying themselves. We would 100% recommend Red Smith Ranch to anyone looking to host a family gathering, wedding, or event. We couldn’t be happier to have made some really important memories there. Thank you Del & Marne for making our wedding and stay so magical!

This was our first time staying in the Central Valley after staying at the coast for multiple years. We loved the warm weather and spent most of our time in the pool. We had a amazing time, and can't wait to spend time again there next year.

We thirteen go on a biennial family vacation and this was the best yet. We stayed a week, and didn't come close to exhausting its spaces and amenities. Great pool and spa, fresh produce from the garden, pickle ball, corn hole, croquet, archery--wow. Deluxe kitchen, fully appointed, and big tables for family meals. A few glitches that Del took care of right away. Shade trees, pool, and air conditioning mitigated oppressive heat. Several excursions possible, but apart from wine tasting, we were happy to stay at home.

Del is a gracious host who was very communicative and always there to help. We had a few hiccups with the internet and fridge and he was prompt to problem solve and get things in working order. The property is just gorgeous with lots of citrus trees and a fig tree and a vegetable garden we utilized during our stay. We made fresh salsa and it was so delicious! Outdoor cinema and pool were the best. House stayed nice and cool during a hot spell. Winery down the street you can walk to. Patio boat rental with waterslide at nearby Camanche Lake. We.ll be back next year for sure!!

We rent a home every summer and our 4 children, spouses, 6 grandchildren, & 1 dog, spend the time together. This house was perfect for our family of 16 people, as were the grounds which included a wonderful pool and many fun things to do around the property!

This is my 2nd stay at the Ranch. Del is such a gracious host and takes the extra time to personally dial the house in for a perfect stay; he was flexible and accommodating to all my requests. My friends and family gathered to celebrate a birthday and father’s day, they enjoyed every nook and activity available at the house. The beds are super comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed from a big pot to boil lobster to a built in griddle for pancakes. But the expansive yard was where we spent most of our time…the fully fenced in yard was great for our pups, the pool was perfect temp and the hot tub was clean and freshly filled. Thank you AGAIN, for a great experience. Can’t wait to stay in your other property in October!

My brother, sister, and myself (ages 72-80) brought our children and our grandchildren for an annual getaway of sun, fun, and food. There was something for everyone at this expansive house set in the vineyards of Lodi. We didn't leave the whole long weekend, but were never bored. Two nights at the poker table were full of laughs for the old folks. Rousing games of CornHole for all ages. Amazing kitchen supplies and space for the cooks. Two dishwashers were a huge help. Losers in the timed scavenger hunt (for finding the multiple ceramic and metal birds and animals) had to do the dishes that night. Fun for all. Highly recommend this house with the A+++ host.

Stayed the weekend with 12 women for a 40th birthday and had a fantastic time! Clean, easy, comfortable. Went out wine tasting, brought in a chef for a dinner, made fancy cocktails at the beautiful bar, and relaxed in the hot tub. We caught very cold weather and STILL the house feels like a resort and we didn't want to leave.

This house was perfect for our purposes—lots of large communal space in which to gather, but also many nooks in which to find privacy and quiet. Even better, Del was a responsive and generous host. It's always so much better to hand over the check to a really nice guy.

Beautiful property. Plenty of room for a large family gathering. Great kitchen for cooking and lots of rooms for hanging out.

Del was a wonderful host and the house is amazing! Our family thoroughly enjoyed our Christmas at Redsmith Ranch. I highly recommend!

Our family truly enjoyed our stay at this wonderful home. We never ran out of things to do. From exploring the fruit trees and jacuzzi time to games of archery, everyone had something to do. Del (host) was super communicative and gracious. We would to come back for another sweet adventure at this wonderful home.

We had a lovely long weekend here. There is plenty of room for everyone to spread out, the house is beautiful but also feels like it's meant to be lived in. The many amenities kept everyone content and the kitchen had all we needed to cook large meals. A+++

Property is very nice, surrounded by vineyards. There was a problem with air conditioning not being turned on soon enough before we got there. It was 116 that day, but Del took care of it. We were 9 ladies that play Mah Jongg and we played many games, fixed meals and ate together on the big dining room table. Lots of wineries nearby to go wine tasting.

Our close group of friends who are like family stayed here during some very hot days and had a wonderful time. Del is a gracious host and was very available for questions that arose. The ranch has a surprising number of hangout spots and like 3(?!) fountains. I almost don’t want to submit this review, so we can keep this gem more to ourselves….

Beautiful house, lush gardens, lots to do on site, enough to do nearby (especially if you like wine and beer), very gracious host, nice kitchen with multiple dishwashers, great outdoor dining, good sound system. We stayed a wonderful week and it went by too fast. Only small issue was that communication with host was good, but sometimes not as responsive as I would've liked when we were there.

This is our 2nd stay at Redsmith Ranch. I stayed in January for my 60th birthday and loved the property so much we decided to come back for a family trip during the summer to experience the pool life! We had 16 people and everyone LOVED it! There is ample space for everyone to hang out and be together or have some quiet time! Thanks so much to Del for being a great host!! I have no doubt we will be back again for another amazing trip!

Our annual family vacation was made even better because we chose this home surrounded by vineyards. The property was beautiful inside and out. It was immaculate and had every amenity we could think of and even some we hadn't had available in other rental homes. The check in process was made special with Del greeting us and showing us around the house and the grounds. He showed us the rose garden and the vegetable garden. He told us we were welcome to use whatever vegetables we wanted and we definitely did that. What a treat the home grown veggies made in our pasta dish one night. Communication with Del was so easy and he was extremely quick in his responses. He would text us several times over the course of our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. There was plenty of room for all of us, ranging in age from 70 to 2 months. There were also spots to get away to for a couple of minutes of quiet. The pool area was great with plenty of seating for those who weren't in the pool. Our kids love the swing. I could go on and on but bottom line is don't hesitate to rent this property.

Unfortunately, I broke my ankle and missed our family trip. My family tells me they had another wonderful stay.

We had an absolutely wonderful time at your magical oasis! So many fun things to do in an expansive, beautiful property! We can’t wait to return. Thank you for everything!

We were a party of 12 for a family reunion. Del has an amazing space and a fabulous host.The house was amazing all 5 couples had their own room and the 2 singles too. The outdoor space left us speechless. SO many nice areas to sit and enjoy the quiet surroundings. The pool was prefect - thoroughly used and enjoyed daily. There was lots of activities - ping pong, basketball, bocce, archery were enjoyed but didn't get to volleyball or darts :). We ate outside at a prefect table for 12 or more every evening. The house has an amazing bar that the 2 bartenders of the family enjoyed using. The indoor space was impressive, but to be honest we spent most of it outdoors on the property. Pet friendly - our 2 dogs had as much fun as we did. We left very blessed for our experience together as a family in such an incredible place. Last night we used the outdoor projector for the celebration of an 85th birthday. Our stay was perfection. Thank you Del and hope to be back.

This is an amazing house and property. Del and his team are great! We loved the pool, all the games they had, and the amazing camp fire for smores. We had our family trip at this house and all ages were very entertained! Thanks again Del!

Very relaxing stay. Plenty of things to do. Enjoyed the bacci ball court and hot tub. Swimming pool was a little cold. Plenty of room inside and out. Everything was great.

Fabulous house with plenty of room and unique spaces both inside and out for everyone to enjoy. Highly recommend!

Del was really communicative, flexible, and easy to interact with. The entire property was clean, well stocked and well appointed, but unfortunately this time of year we were not able to enjoy much from the garden, or the beautiful outdoor spaces much as if we were to have in the warmer months. It definitely was a comfortable space for our group of 16 moms looking for a quick trip away from home and work life, and afforded us the ability to reset ourselves. The bar area was fantastic and we're looking forward to return when there are warmer days. Thank you Del!

Came with friends for our annual reunion get-together. Del was very pleasant to rent from, and was very communicative, flexible, and on top of making sure our needs were met. The property was enormous, beautiful, and very well kept. We will probably be looking to come visit again in the summer!

Yea can’t say enough about this home! It far exceeded all 12 guests expectations and we can’t wait to go back!!! Del was the most responsive and accommodating host I could ever imagine having!! He has thought of every little detail to make the home an experience instead of just a rental!! We can’t wait to go back!!

The property and surrounding vineyards are absolutely stunning. You feel like you've been transported to a spanish villa as soon as you step out of your car. The house has everything you need and feels cozy and welcoming while still being grand and spacious. Del is super sweet and beyond helpful. He and his helper Susan made us all feel right at home. Everyone in my group of 16 fell in love with the ranch and can't wait to come back :)

I have rented many properties in different parts of California for family get-togethers and Del’s property is by far the best. It is luxurious but so comfortable, even for young children and dogs. We will be back!

We stayed at RedSmith Ranch for 5 nights in December for my daughters intimate destination wedding. This property is absolutely beautiful! Rehearsal dinner was held at the property as well as the wedding. Del is a great host who was very accommodating to our requests to help make the rehearsal and ceremony everything my daughter had envisioned! The grounds are immaculate! We would definitely stay here again!
