Unbeatable Views & Coastal Charm

Harkers Island, with its humble origins and rich history, has blossomed into a delightful vacation destination. Known for its excellent fishing, small-town charm, and coastal beauty, this unique spot is perfect for those looking to relax, explore, and soak in the laid-back island lifestyle.

This three-story waterfront home sits directly on Back Sound, offering panoramic water views and a front-row seat to the iconic Cape Lookout Lighthouse, visible on the horizon.

Interior Features:
Classic coastal charm: Wood-paneled walls, nautical decor, and large windows fill the home with natural light and a feeling of nostalgia.
Open-concept living area: Spacious yet cozy, seamlessly connecting the kitchen, dining, and lounge spaces for gathering together with ease.
Generous kitchen & countertop space: Plenty of room to cook, entertain, and enjoy each other's company.

Sleeping arrangements:
Second floor: Two cozy sleeping spaces, including the stunning primary bedroom with a water view and the bunk room with full bed bunks and a water view, too!
Third floor: Large great room with a queen bed and a twin bed, offering breathtaking sunset and night sky views over the sound.

Outdoor Highlights:
Spacious porch & picnic table: Enjoy the unbeatable fresh coastal air and stunning sunsets.
Direct access to Cape Lookout National Seashore: Launch a kayak, or simply relax by the water from the dock at your doorstep, shared with the friendly neighbor next door. Catch the ferry at the end of the road or bring your own boat for a scenic cruise.

PLEASE NOTE:
The dock has limited water depth at low tide and the boat lift is not available for guests. For launching your boat, Cape Point Marina is just half a mile down the road and offers convenient access to the water.

Again, the BOAT LIFT IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR GUEST USE. Guests who use the boat lift will incur a $1000 FEE and a lifetime ban from the property.

The pet fee is $20/night/dog. Reach out for pet approval and to add the fees to your reservation.
The driveway is also shared with the neighbors, please park on the righthand side.

House Rules
Furry friends are welcome! But please keep pets off the furniture so we can maintain a fresh, clean space for all guests. Kindly clean up after your pet so the outdoor space stays enjoyable for everyone.

Keep it cozy, not crazy! We ask that there be no parties or large gatherings to ensure a peaceful stay for everyone.
There are video cameras at the front and back of the property for security purposes only. NO audio.

Thank you and see you soon!

Beautiful view of the cape.

Beautiful view of the cape! Water shores are a must but great amenities for families who enjoy fishing and kayaking. Kitchen had everything you could ask for! Cons: Wi-Fi didn’t work all week despite troubleshooting with property manager, neighbor that doesn’t share a driveway immediately asked us when we were leaving, fire ants were all along interior aspect of back door and in one of the chairs upon arrival and no vacuum on site. Additionally, master bedroom matress was very springy and sagged in the middle. Advice for young families: take 2 baby gates with you. Parking is VERY limited.
