About this property

Did you know that there are over 50 islands in the heart of California'? Come visit our unique property located on Grand Island, the largest island in the California Delta. House has extensive library and fun artistic touches.

The house was designed by one of California’s most important architects, William Wurster-- whose influences remain deeply embedded in the state’s design psyche. From his exquisitely crafted and deceptively modest wood structures like the Helen Rich House to groundbreaking adaptive reuse projects like Ghirardelli Plaza, his impact is inescapable.

The spectacular living/dining room is a casual lifestyle of open floor plans. A wall of windows opens to a view deck overlooking the pool. This is a great place for a safe-stay-cation with lots of space.

Tennis court
Bose sound system
Fire TV sticks on three TV's

Great couples weekend

My wife and two other couples stayed here and loved our experience. Exactly what we needed. House is a little dated. I wouldn’t look for new amenities here but the property is gorgeous and the house felt very clean. Would highly recommend.

Secluded, charming and memorable.

As soon as we arrived on the property it felt like we were taken back to a simpler time. This property is positively charming. The house gives the impression of part museum and part home. Interesting architectural and design choices all around. Even the books on the shelves in certain areas are lined up in a gradient of color. Perfect for a romantic getaway. By the end of our trip we were happily exhausted from all the tennis, pickle ball and swimming. Yet also well rested mentally from the rejuvenating energy of these beautiful well maintained grounds. Butterflies, birds and bunnies all around to brighten your day. The house is very well stocked. There are also multiple TV’s but who needs them when there are book cases worth of fascinating reads. My only suggestion is to have a pool skimmer nearby for the various leaves and insects that occasionally land in the pool throughout the day and make sure to reapply your sun screen. It’s easy to forget when you are surrounded by such beauty. I can’t imagine anyone not enjoying their stay here! Julie was also very responsive and kind. Tennis and pickle ball items available onsite and even thoughtful s’mores making items left out as well as a sparkling berry beverage for guest use. A lovely welcoming touch. Tennis house 10/10.
