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!

This place was truly amazing! I know people say the photos don’t do it justice, but really it is true. Once we arrived, we were greeted with such a refreshing and upbeat Marne! She made us feel better than being at home, with a tour of the place and glass of wine. We had four generations of family and we all had something fun or relaxing to do. We just loved loved loved it. Thanks Del and Marne!

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.

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 !!!

We have stayed multiple times with 3 generations of our family and this place is ideal set up for this. It has places for adults to relax, kids to play and places for everyone to all come together. The host is the best in the business.

8 adults, 6 children, ages 10 and under, 2 small dogs converged on this magnificent property. Del and Marne have a beautiful spread. Because they were both at other events, we let ourselves in. All was pretty self explanatory, but Del was always available through text to answer any questions. Their maintenance crew, Jesus, was excellent and helped with a few items when he came to tend the property. Lots of trout in the river, fish from the shore or put your waders on or float down from the park. the river is cold, snow fed, but the few rafting down were having a wonderful time. our son caught many trout and released them. He saw an elusive salmon also. River otters, egrets, geese and ducks are all part of the scenery. There's pockets of paradise everywhere on the property to get away from it all. The kids loved the riverfront as well as the pool and spa. They even tucked in for a short sauna in the new 8 person sauna. it's beautiful. I love to do art with the grands, and there is an art barn with paints, rocks to paint, which proved to be a fave. ping pong tournaments, archery, room for family soft ball and soccer games. Really everything we could want. the house is well equipped with everything. a coffee appliance garage, 2 fridges and 2 dishwashers. lots of games, a wonderful bar area. a quiet corner the older grands gathered and played on their devices when allowed. the master bedroom is divine and their are tons of bathrooms with beautiful showers. we will be 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.

Pictures don’t do the property justice ;-). Everything about the property was amazing, from the location, to the amenities even the hospitable nature of the host, Del. My friends and family all had an amazing time, so much so, that we are planning to rent at least once a year. We can’t wait to come back. Thank you, Del for allowing us to rent your home and for being so accommodating and welcoming.

I don't usually write VRBO reviews but this place was the TOPS From the very beginning of the booking process Del was very helpful. Del met us upon arrival and first look of the property beautiful lots of green plants ,flowers, grass. He gave us a brief tour of the house and how things work and where things were located. The pool and the spa were amazing with the 2 umbrella holes in the Baja shelf you were able sit in shade on a chair all day. Awesome feature for kids. Fishing ,ping pong, slip n slide, archery Paddle board. So much to do if you wanted. Inside bar, kitchen had so many extras that most don't provide. Beds were comfortable TV room on the far end on the house nice large sofa. So many areas to visit and have your own time if needed to read a book and have a coffee or Mimosa. Also 5mins down the road we got fresh corn and 2 yummy pies. I can't say enough about this place so if you are looking for your next retreat this is the one for you.

We used the space for our executive team retreat, and it was perfect. One of the best available properties in the region. Beds and linens were great. Kitchen well stocked with necessary items for a large group. Then there's the river. . . Wow! So great to sit riverside and strategize with our team. 5 stars

We all had a wonderful time! The pool and hot tub were big hits with everyone, especially the kids. The house was beautiful and we had plenty of space for everyone in the family (including grandparents). Some of us used the kayaks in the river, fished, did archery, played ping pong, or just read by the pool. There is something here for everyone. Thank you Del for an amazing stay!

Loved the home and all of the amenities and activities on the property. Del was a great host and you could tell really wanted us to enjoy the property. The only thing to take note of is the outdoor cats on the property for those who are allergic or don’t like them.

I have to start with the Host. Del is so caring. His desire for his guests to have a good time is for real. It that makes all the difference when staying somewhere. Are we walking on glass when we use the place or just having a good time? With Del it's gonna be "have a great time". Great music system, great kitchen, great pool, great beds, great house layout, great everything. It felt like a real relaxing vacation and not imposing on someone or feeling like you're gonna get nickled and dimed for who knows what "infractions". With the tone set, the actual place is great! Lots of smaller areas to hang out but also multiple big communal spaces. Both indoors and outdoors. The kitchen is amazing, and for a Thanksgiving dinner for 15 people, it went off without a hitch or a cold dish. Bedrooms are right sized, spaced out in the house, and filled with comfy comforters and pillows. Literally every person on the trip thanked me for finding this place that also had a great host. Del made me a local hero! ps - Del swung by with a hot apple pie from a local baker when he was dropping off some extra blankets. Making me even more of a hero on our first night there :-)

Amazing home, We're all SO grateful you share! I just cant say enough good things. It was the perfect place for family and friends. Plenty of room and the games were so fun! (Although I didn't win) I will keep in mind to come back with husbands time!

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!

10.0 / 10.0

The house was so much more than we expected! Let’s start with the inside - From the comfort of the beds, the number of full bathrooms, the perfectly decorated seating areas, to the multiple fridges for maximum food and beverage storage, Del and his partner have really thought of everything. The outdoor – plenty of parking, so many places to sit and relax (some quiet coffee areas away from your group for a moment), the peaceful firepit by the river where we waved at paddle boarders and watched a mother fox play with her cubs! Beyond the beautiful pool and spa space this home has SO much to offer. The host is responsive and helpful. A group of 12 girls and not one complaint, this house is known as a unicorn. Jump on a wine trip to Lodi which has so many wineries to visit. Our group is already looking for a reason to revisit this house! Thank you so much, Del!!!

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. He’s earned a 10 star rating from us. Thank you Del!

The property is just beautiful, With the natural setting of the lake to the perfect garden and flowers. The crystal clear pool is absolutely wonderful and can be enjoyed well into the night with the warm weather. Our family also enjoyed the hot tub being inside the pool. The house is spacious and very nicely decorated. The bathrooms are like being in a hotel - love the showers. There are a lot of bathrooms so no waiting around. The kitchen is well equipped and the two dishwashers and refrigerators make it so easy! We were all very sad it was time to leave. Del and Marne are wonderful thoughtful hosts! We have stayed at both of their rentals and both are wonderful. Lots of laughs, good food and memories were made! We will be back ❤️

We could not have been happier. I'm afraid that by enumerating all the positives I will somehow spoil the magic. The kitchen was fully equipped and gracious - two dishwashers helped us establish a rhythm. Two refrigerators allowed us to spread out. Twelve of us sat down at the dining table each night. Our young grandsons slept hard each night because each day they spent in the pool - the thoughtfulness of its design made it hard to keep them out. We felt private and secluded throughout, able to enjoy each other by the pool, by the river and in numerous and ample sitting areas throughout the house. The house felt personal. dave and sue

Large home with plenty of room for the eight of us to spread out and still have quiet, private spots. Terrific pool - one of the best we've ever had at a rental. The pictures and description are accurate. The location by the river is what makes this property stand out. We would come back.

This was honestly the best vacation rental I have ever stayed at. Del was such a kind and generous host. He met us there to take a tour of the property and give us great information about our stay. The pool was amazing and the view of the river was so beautiful. The space is huge and we felt like we had plenty of room to spread out. Thanks for an amazing weekend making memories! We would love to come back again. Run, don't walk, to book this property!
