Fishing trip

Accommodations great. Access to HI Fishing Center and was able to rent boat slip so I did not have to put boat back on trailer until I was checking out.

Clean and comfortable.Few windows, so a little cave like, but the outdoor swing let me enjoybthe nice days. Kitchen is small, as pictured. I found a one burner hotplate in the cabinet, so i was able to do a little cooking. Still ate at the Fish Hook next door a few nughtsBed is very comfortable, and there are lots of drawers to unpack and stay organized. Didnt try the TV, but reading in the TV room was comfortable. Easy in and out.

Really liked the size and level of upkeep. Great location. Did not like the adjacent boat building warehouse which was damaged by tornado in 2024 but left unrepaired. Loose metal roof sheets threatening to blow loose dampened time outside. The adjacent restaurant is a major reason to stay here with great food and atmosphere. Love Harkers for a non-beach coastal environment with Cape Lookout and local museums of decoys and down east communities.

Very satisfied!

This is a great place for someone who wants to enjoy the outdoors . Close to the water and the visitors center. Check in text message concerning codes and entry door was confusing and should be reworked . Besides that I enjoyed everything! Thank you.

Harkers island 2 person stay.

Property was nice and organized. It is not very large but we adapted. All items you need are there. Parking was great and it is close to everything you would want The TV with only Roku was not very friendly. Eliminate Roku and get plain cable. That would be much much better

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! We are happy to hear Mi Faro ended up being a great vacation spot for you. Regarding the Roku TV, we've transitioned to streaming services across the board. Smart TVs and Roku are the overwhelming preference of guests because of the wide range of viewing options. However, we can understand that the Roku could be tricky for unfamiliar users and for that we are so sorry! Please know, for next time, we are available to trouble shoot on any issue that might arise.

COCKROACHES!!! My entire family thought this would be a quaint and quiet place to stay. We were dead wrong. After being there 3 nights, we realized we were sleeping with the roaches. We even called the property manager Spectrum Property who then went on to ask us about the number of legs and size of the species of the cockroach. I was then informed that it was certain subspecies of cockroach known as a waterbug and it was harmless. Harmless?? My ass! It was huge and there were several that were crawling on the back of my 2 year old's neck near bedtime. Nope, not staying here or can ever recommend this property or Spectrum Properties to anyone ever. Avoid this place!

This place is absolutely wonderful and just what I was looking for. The bed was comfy, the unit was clean, the porch was amazing. The views from the swing were so pretty. I spent most of my time just swinging and watching the water. I didn’t realize that the view would be as great as it was. I go to Harker’s Island every year and I hope to make this my place to rent each year. I can’t brag enough about the property. My only complaint is that I knew there wasn’t a stove in the unit as mentioned, so I made sure to bring lots of cold items like sandwich meats, pre packaged salads, lunchables, things like that. According to the pictures, the fridge in the kitchen was a good size fridge so bright food accordingly so I’d be prepared for five days with no stove. I was very disappointed to see the fridge that’s actually in the unit is not the one pictured in the rental description. It was only a very small mini fridge that’s on the ground so I had to get on my knees to be able to get anything in and out of it. Since I brought a bunch of fresh food expecting to be able to refrigerate it, I had fi buy another cooler and bags of ice daily to keep my food and drinks in since there was no room in the fridge for anything other than a couple bottles of water and the sandwich meats. Thats my only complaint which was inconvenient at the time but the views, the comfort of the whole area made it all just a perfect getaway. If they would get a bigger fridge, it would be 10/10!! I love the swing!
