The Hoi Toider @ Harkers Island

The "Hoi Toider" gets it's name from the traditional King's English still spoken by local residents. Harkers Island has the honor of hosting both the Cape Lookout National Seashore Visitor Center and the Core Sound Waterfowl and History Museum along its shores, making it a very special stop during any Crystal Coast trip. The "Hoi Toider" is located one block away from the closest marina to Cape Lookout (Cape Point, $15 launch fee). Free Public Access ramps 2 miles away at the Harkers Island Bridge.

This clean home comfortably sleeps 7.
Includes a full kitchen, laundry, and 2 full baths. Enjoy lounging on the huge screened porches on the front and back of the home (perfect for kids camp-outs). Large, well-lit covered wash down area in back, big enough for two boats. Huge yard with plenty of parking.

Harkers Island is supported by 3 restaurants and multiple grocery and convenience stores. For the vacationer, this is a great place to bring your bikes or enjoy quiet walks.

For the boater, this is paradise with quick access to Cape Lookout, Beaufort, and Morehead City. Monthly rate available upon request.

Very nice house

The house in a great location on the island. Very clean and well kept. Plenty of room and it's very nice that they add little amentities like the covered boat parking. Plenty of cooking utensils and are even nice enough to leave little things like spices and condiments. Would definitely stay again.

Our favorite place

We’ve been visiting since 2020. I think this is our 4th stay. It’s close to what we need, cozy, clean, and the owners are the best! Our second time bringing our boat. We look forward to next time and couldn’t imagine staying anywhere else.

Great Stay on Harkers Island

Great, clean, comfortable home perfect for small to medium size families. This is a quiet out of the way place to stay away from some of the busy beach towns, but with quick access to Cape Lookout and within half an hour of some other great towns along the coast. Not sure why a hot tub is listed as we did not see one anywhere on the property.
