Back To News/PR Index | | | The property was originally
built by the late vintner, designer, pilot, and renaissance woman, Mary
Tilden Morton (of the Morton Salt Family). It was thoughtfully and skillfully
restored by the Sellers who preserved many of Rancho Caymus’ original details
– including stained-glass windows, masterful mosaics, heavy 19th century
barn-wood beams, and other details throughout. The Inn’s name and aesthetic
both pay homage to the historic 1836 Rancho Caymus land grant.
The acquisition of the Inn marks a return to the valley for Jeff Broaden, founder & CEO of Stonehouse Capital. In partnership with Auberge, as a partner at his prior firm, he helped lead the successful acquisition and ownership of Calistoga Ranch. It was also in Napa Valley that he married his wife, almost a decade ago. With a deep appreciation for the fundamentals of the valley, Jeff had been seeking another worthy investment that meets the requirements of being both emotionally stirring and financially compelling. “We are thrilled to add this incredibly unique boutique hotel to our portfolio,” said Jeff Broaden, Founder and CEO of Stonehouse Capital. “Napa Valley is a wonderful community filled with passionate creators and artists; one of the more inspiring destinations anywhere. We are excited to become the new stewards of this property and thrilled to be surrounded by such wonderful neighbors in Rutherford and the broader wine country.” He added, “We are happy to announce our partnership with Life House for management – we chose them for their innovative platform, creative edge, shared enthusiasm for Napa and this asset, and commitment to elevating the experience of our guests in this special destination.” “We are ecstatic to be part
of the treasured Rancho Caymus Inn in the heart of Napa Valley,” added
Rami Zeidan, Life House's
founder & CEO. “We are grateful to work with Stonehouse Capital and
very much appreciate their forward-thinking approach that will bring a
wonderfully enhanced and authentic guest experience and optimal profitability
through our management platform.”
About Rancho Caymus Inn Nestled in the idyllic hamlet of Rutherford in Napa Valley, Rancho Caymus Inn is an historic 26-room boutique hotel unlike any other in wine country. The Inn’s classic California style was handcrafted using materials that were carefully dismantled from a 19th century Yorkshire Ohio barn. The all-suite property features expansive bi-level rooms, with the living area on the lower level, and bedroom and bathroom upstairs. The rooms surround a lovely courtyard, which plays host to a nightly wine hour that is complimentary for guests. About Stonehouse Capital
