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.

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!
Excellent stocking of essentials! Very cute Decor. Host (Chris) was very timely and responsive. Close proximity to the Core Sound Museum and lighthouse ferry. Looking forward to visiting in the future!There is a rooster down the road, which woke up my friend...I only heard it one morning...but lol...its definitely down east island life and I love it! Just be prepared if you're city folk!
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.

Aw man, we love reading reviews like this. It renews in us why we work so hard to pour everything that comes out of the rentals back into the property. Thank you again for coming back. Our family depends on families like yours. Can’t wait to have you back again.
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.
We love this place! It was a perfect comfortable weekend getaway! We were close to out boat landing and had great space. The porches were great for relaxing and spending quality family time. THANK YOU!!

Thank you so much for choosing our home for your beach vacation. The porches are our favorite spot too for breakfast, card games late at night, or just listening to a storm. We sincerely appreciate you.
We have stayed here for 4 or 5 years now and are getting ready to book next years stay. The house is so comfortable and the owners are terrific.
For a family vacation, I highly recommend!

It is always great to have your family down. Glad you did well in the tournament this year. Can’t wait to have you back again. Thank you for taking such good care of our home away from home.
This rental is just right. Very homey, well stocked, room to spread out, and great porches. This was our second stay and we enjoyed it just as much as the first. Great location on the island.
