Location Highlights:

Just 3 miles from the Cape Lookout ferry

18 miles from historic Beaufort, NC

Nestled on Harkers Island — known for its quiet charm, maritime heritage, and exceptional fishing

Near the Core Sound Waterfowl Museum and local nature trails

Easy access to Cape Lookout National Seashore by ferry

Charter fishing, local boat tours, and shelling excursions available nearby

Several casual restaurants and gift shops on the island, including spots for local seafood and handmade coastal art

A stay at Lookout Cottage offers a front-row seat to the beauty and culture of North Carolina’s “Down East” coast — where life moves a little slower, and the water is always calling.

Looking for a serene vacation spot? Whether you're into fishing, shelling, or simply slowing down, Lookout Cottage is your peaceful retreat. This bright, modern home offers water views from almost every window, and the outdoor decks are perfect for enjoying the coastal breeze.

Ideal for couples traveling together or families who appreciate privacy, each bedroom has its own bathroom. After a beach day, unwind in the spacious great room or cook up a coastal feast in the well-stocked kitchen.

Deeded water access is just across the street. While the beach here is tidal (and sand may come and go), you’ll find plenty of shells and treasures to collect. Water shoes are recommended for swimming.
