A Memo from Susan Dell’Osso
We would like to address rumors that Safeway will be coming to River Islands: while it is true that Safeway is a grocery chain that we have been in negotiations with, at this point, there are no contracts in place. We’re very excited to be considering grocery stores for our community – and while it is no easy task, rest assured it will be worthwhile. Any announcements regarding our community will come directly from River Islands Development and soon, we will have a new residents-only portal to be the place of all official messages and friendly discourse, so stay tuned!

Note from Susan Dell’Osso re: Redwood Café posts
Every good rumor has its basis in reality. The real story about The Redwood Café is that we are in negotiation to bring this amazing restaurant, its atmosphere and visionary staff to River Islands. We have a handshake agreement and are working on contracts now. We will make a formal detailed announcement in the next few weeks on a new portal site for all River Islands residents, so stay tuned!

Priest Ranch, which shares a parent company with River Islands, has created a wine club just for Islanders, with plans for deliveries to be made to our community three times per year, accompanied by fun pick-up parties! Along with a special discount on all wines, members will receive three customizable shipments per year, be invited to the tasting room in Yountville for a complementary wine tasting once a year, first-access to winery-exclusive wines and MORE!
Community Map
When you meet someone who tells you they live in Drake’s Bend, do you know where that is? Did you know that Lakeside is not 360 Lakeside? Wouldn’t you love to have a map that shows all of the River Islands neighborhoods, by name?
This is not a street map, but a neighborhood map, to help you navigate around the community as you put down roots.

Welcome Center Opens Doors For New Rental Program
We're excited to announce that the River Islands Welcome Center is now available for residents to rent for small gatherings and meeting space!
If you belong to a club within the community that needs a place to hold meetings or want to host a small-scale celebratory event for family and friends, then we can provide it by offering the Welcome Center lobby area and deck outside of business hours. Inside capacity is at a 49-person maximum.
All requests will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis for approval. Please note that the Welcome Center is open daily - we cannot accomodate requests for use during operating hours, 10am - 5pm.
