About this property

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.

This was our second stay at the Hoi Tider and we can’t wait for our third! It’s a great location for a lowkey getaway with easy access to several boat ramps. The house was spotless and welcoming upon our arrival. The host is absolutely wonderful to work with and so kind. Our kids love playing on the porches (the mosquitos can be bad depending on the time of year) and seeing the swamp rabbits and the neighbor’s chickens run through the yard. The shelter and fish cleaning station in the backyard is top notch. Thank you for a great trip!

We are so glad your family had a good time. It means so much to us that other families are making memories there, the same way we do with our kids. We can’t wait to have you back again to continue to make special memories for the little ones.

Cozy star in Harkers Island!! The provided coffee and laundry machines made our few days stay especially cozy. and if the weather had been warmer, the screen-in porches were an especially lovely perk. Would happily stay here again!

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.

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.

We are so glad you had a good trip. We know how frustrating it is to go on vacation and have to go buy little things throughout the trip. So we try to make sure all or most of those things are available. We hope you can come again.
