There’s archery, bocce, ping pong, volleyball, and tons of activities for everyone to play together, from kids to adults.

The home, grounds and pools are beautiful. So many activities to do: archery, basketball, ping-pong, bocce ball (a family favorite). We are a large family and nice, clean, large vacation homes with great amenities are hard to find! But what really brings it all together is the host, Del. He is so accommodating, he installed handrails in the master bedroom for my parents for this return trip. My dad will be turning 100 and my mom is 92\. They are is great shape in mind and body but they both use a cane or walker from time to time especially at night time. So the handrails were a blessing and gave the rest of the family peace of mind when mom and dad or grandpa & grandma went to bed at night. He stopped by to make sure all was good and left a coupon for a pie shop in town, which the kids later went and got three homemade pies!!

May 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A Gem! What a gem! RedSmith Ranch is a large estate in a quiet, farming town that has ample space to relax, both inside and out - plenty of gathering spaces on the main level, enough bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate our large group, and beautiful grounds surrounding the house. Activities outside included a basketball hoop, table tennis, an archery set, and bocce ball, so there was plenty to do for the adults and kids. We had the whole property to ourselves, so it felt like we owned our own family vineyard for the weekend! And the property was extremely well stocked with all of the supplies we needed for the rental. Host Del could not be any more kind and accommodating to our group - he was very responsive leading up to the rental period and stopped by in person on our first day to check if we had any questions about the house. Most restaurants and stores were at least 20 minutes away from the house, so this property is a better fit for "getting away" instead of being "close to the action" (which worked just fine for our group!). The only two downsides we experienced - there was a large amount of mosquitos throughout the property (primarily in the front yard and backyard) so we took home a lot of bug bites, and the standalone hot tub was not usable (it had some baby frogs taking a swim themselves!) - but despite that, we still had the time of our lives at RedSmith Ranch! Thank you so much, Del! ##### Manish D. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Aravinda S. Sep 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful property! The property was huge and gorgeous. The pool was ice cold even when it was sunny in late September, but we did hot tub and then cold plunge. We loved the veggies (tons of tomatoes and herbs) and fruit trees (when we were there only calamansi was ripe). I particularly enjoyed the archery setup--never done it before and it was very satisfying. Indoor area was thoughtful and well appointed. One of the guests went for a run and saw some goats and a pony--the sunsets were also gorgeous. Great hosting location! The host must have been busy when we arrived. He said he would invite us in and show us a tour, but came 3-4 hours after we'd arrived and focused on getting a delivery of paper towels instead of greeting us. The tour was a verbal rundown of things while we were in the driveway rather than any walkthrough of the house. There was also a lot of confusion and apparently anxiety on the host's side about a separate contract he'd sent, indicated we didn't need to sign, and then freaked out that we hadn't yet signed. I assume it was just an off day for him, as he was otherwise very responsive over text. ##### Aravinda S. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bruce L.

Stayed there for UOP graduation with a group of 14 family members. Plenty of room for everyone in common areas. Bedrooms were comfortable & entire house was nicely decorated. Plenty of kitchen area for gathering when cooking breakfast (lots of essentials provided for cooking) & plenty of eating area too. Grounds were beautiful & well maintained. Lots to do while outside. Swimming, hot tub, fire pit area to make s’mores & herb garden to use. Played bocci ball, a little archery & ping pong. There was so much outdoor space to just walk around & enjoy as a group or for alone time & soothing sounds of water fountains to make sitting outside relaxing. Farmland views were amazing! Had a catered meal on sight by a Chef recommended by Del & the meal was delicious. Lots of table room & gorgeous weather to enjoy our after graduation meal. Location is convenient to downtown Lockeford & Lodi & getting Stockton did not take long. So much to see & do while staying at Red Smith Ranch that we wish we could have stayed longer! Del was very accommodating with flexibility of checking in/checking out. Definitely recommend Red Smith Ranch for your next big family gathering. You’ll have a fantastic time resting & having fun! ##### Bruce L. Stayed 4 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sam S. Nov 8, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Magical Place for a Family Weekend (and a Wedding) 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! ##### Sam S. Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeff D.

The hospitality was second to none, with constant communication and assistance when issues arrived (broken dryer, meant daily laundry service until they could replace it). It’s a ranch so critters are too be expected but it was handled with professionalism and timeliness. So much space for our group to spread out, pool was wonderful, and hot tub too! We plan on coming back year after year as our tradition home! ##### Jeff D. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mona P.
