This was our second day this summer at Christina’s cabin. Both visits were exceptional experiences for all in our groups. Everything – inside and out – was exceptionally clean. We had some finicky cooks in both groups, and they were quickly appeased by the top end equipment in the kitchen and the extensive supply of cooking tools and utensils. The cabin has numerous sitting and gathering areas throughout the house, which makes conversations and connecting very easy. Christina and Ted, the hosts, are truly incredible. They seemed to think of everything and were very responsive and worked to make our stay perfect.

We have done family vacations for 14 years and have stayed in VRBO properties all across the Midwest and Southeast. This is the absolute best home we have ever stayed in. Our hosts Christina and Ted were amazing. There were so many great touches. Gifts for all of our grandchildren, a very cool scavenger hunt, and wide variety of fruit, coffee, and other staples. The house was beautiful and clean. The pool and hot tub were fantastic. I really cannot say enough good things about the house and about our hosts Christina and Ted! Our family definitely wants to come back next year! Thank you so much for a memorable week!

Our stay at Grey Cloud Island was absolutely magical. The property is stunning and provided a serene location for our three-generation family reunion. The Mississippi River was the backdrop for our family to spend beautiful time together. Christina is the hostess par excellence. Besides for being extremely communicative and responding to all of our questions and requests, she went above and beyond in so many ways. She even left a fun-filled scavenger hunt for our children, that kept them so entertained. They LOVED It. And the house is so well equipped for children of all ages, with games, toys, books, outdoor equipment – you name it, it was there. The kitchen also, is fully equipped and stocked with whatever you might need.The house was absolutely clean and so beautifully decorated. The bathrooms are all new and fresh and clean. There is much space and there are so many places to just sit and relax, inside and outside of the house – to gaze out at the river and enjoy the scenic peaceful views. One of the favorite pastimes for our children was waiting and watching for the barges to come down the river which happened at least 2 to 3 times a day. If there was a possibility of giving more than 5 stars, I would totally rate this property as such. And if VRBO gave out a Most Gracious Hostess Award, I would nominate Christina. She was the reason our stay was so enjoyable. This is a fantastic property. I recommend it highly.

Absolutely beautiful! Property and house are gorgeous. The amenities, pool, and grounds were perfect. A true chefs kitchen was wonderful for our group. The beds, furniture, linens, pillows and towels were all incredibly comfortable and luxurious. The host was extremely responsive and thoughtful!
