Inexpensive Little Bungalow On Harkers Island
About this house rental
Located in Harkers Island, this attractive house for £122 per night is a fantastic choice for your next trip. Built 1945 and has stood strong through every hurricane since. It is an older home so don't expect like a new. Our guests love it. It is a good value and great location. Two bedroom one bath with kitchen, dining room, living room, front and back decks, charcoal, room for cars and boat trailers. Sorry no water access but there are first class free public ramps just down the road and a nice view of the water from the back deck. Yes we do have great wifi and roku, netflix and Amazon Prime and A/C. Harkers Island is home to Cape Lookout National Seashore Headquarters, and Ferry Ride to the greatest beaches anywhere, and or Shakelford banks where 100 wild horses live (look it up on the web) great views, restaurants, (Core Sound Museum also) The Bungalow is: Clean, air-conditioned, cozy, inexpensive, Island in the calm protected "Sound" waters, a ferry ride to the beach or Shakelford which is beautiful and cool too! There is a very small beach with calm water at the foot of the Harkers Island Bridge, but this is not an ocean beach, but part of the sound. The best beaches anywhere, are just a short ferry ride from the Island to Cape Lookout or Shakelford, a very nice ride on the water, just 20 min or so and inexpensive but a great part of the day. Kayaking, fishing, going over to the Cape or Shakelford, to the Park Headquarters trails on the Island, The Core Sound Museum, one of the three restaurants on the island or maybe getting a glimpse of some of the boat building from scratch with boats as big as 50 feet long built one stick of wood at a time. See many Harkers Island built boats, fishing boats etc. at the Harkers Island boat Harbor where active fishermen will sell you a fresh catch off the boat, shrimp or fish if you catch them as they dock the boat. Wifi & TV, Roku, Netflix, Amazon Prime Movies and TV Series and High Speed Internet all available at no extra cost. Property facts: This property is not "on the water" but a water view. Water access is available to the public many locations around the island. Lots of public places to launch boats, the best is the free launch at the other side of the bridge from the small beach.

Can we just say we were so pleased with this gem! Extremely clean, well stocked for supplies, beds very comfortable, more room than you would expect for a family of four, and we loved sitting on the back porch watching the boats go by! You can’t pass this one up if you are looking for somewhere great to land after a fun evening in Beaufort on the waterfront or a beach day at Cape Lookout. Highly recommend this Harker’s Island cottage/bungalow. We will be staying here again!

My husband has stayed here multiple times with the guys fishing trip they take. It was our first time staying for our family vacation. The house had the best outdoor shower area in my opinion. The house is older and that is told in the description to be expected. We we usually only in the house long enough to shower and sleep so it was perfect for us, as we were on the go a good bit during our time there. We enjoyed it very much and would return again! Thank you for opening up this home at a reasonable cost.

Just very small and old. Couldn't turn around in the bathroom. Owners were nice and sent a message to make myself at home. Eat what you want and such. We arrived and I opened fridge and cabinets, there was not on spec of food or drink anywhere. I am not saying I expected anything, but don't offer if its not there.

Could use some updating to house
House was in good location but could use some work done to it outside and inside. Picture on internet looked better than the real thing. Owners very nice and helpful. Was okay for me because I only used it as a place to sleep.

Perfect Get-A-Way
I was not quite sure what to expect when I came across the listing of this Bungalow. My family hasn't ever rented anything so private before. We typically are hotel/ motel type travelers. (Never again will we be hotel/motel people). With the rates being such great range and knowing we would have privacy to our very own, I could not pass it up.
Checking in was super great smooth.
The Host / Owners of the property were extremely nice and communicated way better than I anticipated. Their responses to my messages were almost instant as if they were standing there right with me. If you are looking for a quiet little get away or a spot to take your family for the weekend, this would be the perfect place. The pictures on the site are not as up to date as you would think, but don't let that scare you because there has been many updates and improvements that just make staying there - "Oh so much sweeter!" For example. The back deck has been enlarged , there is an outside heated shower- "Fabulous" , new flooring in the kitchen and new decor through out. Other than the outside shower, what I loved the most is the double electric recliners. GREAT GREAT GREAT!!!
The beds were comfortable and very clean. Believe me we checked!
The house was fully stocked with everything you need to function as if it were your own home , so cooking for my family was easy.
The WIFI is strong and supported every device we had and to add to the perfect stay- They provide the streaming services. Netflix / prime Ect. We loved the Roku Entertainment, as that is what we use at home. So non of that dreaded Beach Cable like is in most cheap motel rooms.
We made sure we went above and beyond in cleaning up after ourselves and washing everything , so the housekeeper did not have to.
This place is well worth the money and priced affordable.
WE STRONGLY RECCOMMEND STAYING HERE- you wont regret it!
We are already planning our next 2 stays.
THANK YOU FOR A GREAT WEEKEND!!!

This house was okay. It’s an older building that looked like it had some quick modifications. The bathroom job looked terrible. Everything was slanted. There was a washer and dryer.
There was no extra bed under the bunk bed and the beds are uncomfortable. There were a lot of towels. The whole house was moist…it just felt damp.
The bathroom was so small! It was horrible.
It was okay because we only stayed a night. If we stayed more than that I would have been unhappy with this place.
It was okay.

Great location for exploring southern OBX
Exactly as advertised. Super clean. This place is great for a base for exploring Beaufort, which has a lot to offer. Ferries to Cape Lookout, Shackleford Banks, and Ocracoke are easy to reach. We’ll go back.

An easy weekend
We went to Harkers Island to fish. This house was so centrally located for the places we like to fish. A convenience store is half a block away an grocery store is maybe one half of a mile away. The house has all of the amenities that you’d want and the owners were very helpful with a couple of questions I had.

Nice Stay
The house on Harkers Island is in a great location and very clean. The beds are comfortable, and although we did not cook during our stay, the kitchen seemed well-stocked. The property manager is easy to communicate with , and responds very quickly to messages. We will stay again when we visit Harkers Island in the future.

Great Location! Clean and perfect for a weekend Guys fishing trip!

Great value for what we were looking for ... a one day reasonably priced getaway with easy access to the coast. Only suggestion is taking down the picture in your listing that shows the trundle-like mattress under the bunk beds. Having a two year old who recently switched from a crib to a bed, we were looking forward to having a "landing pad" for her and had to rethink her sleeping situation. Not a huge issue, just a suggestion.

Quick one night stay
My daughter and I had a very quick one night stay at the house before taking the ferry to Cape Lookout. The house was perfect for what we needed - a comfortable bed and place to relax for a few hours. The owners were very responsive to my concerns about coming up immediately after a big storm (Elsa). I'm very glad we made the trip!

Great little bungalow!
We only stayed for one night before our ferry to Cape Lookout but the property was very clean and organized. Will stay again if we are ever in the area!

Perfect getaway
The bungalow was perfectly located to jump on a ferry over to Cape Lookout, was well stocked, and just as described on the website. Our family of four had plenty of room in the house and enjoyed the grassy yard for games, and there was plenty of space for parking.

Wonderful
Nice quaint little bungalo on Harkers Island that is located very close to the Ferry service to Shackleford Banks etc..
No beach access from the property however it is located less than 25 minutes from Atlantic Beach and has other more untouched beach access located behind the ferry service main building which is accessible by trail, (I recommend this area if you are looking for a more natural beach area teeming with wildlife).
Overall wonderful stay, the home was clean, and had nice amenities such as a washer/dryer, full kitchen as well as bathroom.
Will stay again here in the future.
