A Coastal Retreat on Harkers Island

Some places invite you to slow down.-- Point of View is one of them.

Nestled on the peaceful shores of Harkers Island, Point of View is more than just a vacation home—it's a place to reconnect with family, explore the beauty of North Carolina's Crystal Coast, and experience the authentic charm of Down East living. Wake each morning to breathtaking views of Core Sound as the sun rises over the water. Spend your days boating, fishing, kayaking, shelling, or exploring nearby Cape Lookout National Seashore. Then return home to relax on the porch with a cool drink, watch the sunset paint the sky, and end the evening beneath a canopy of stars untouched by city lights. Whether you're planning a family vacation, a couples' getaway, or a week of world-class fishing, Point of View offers the perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and coastal charm.

The Space
Designed with families and friends in mind, our spacious 4-bedroom, 3-bath home comfortably accommodates up to 8 guests with inviting spaces to gather, relax, and make lasting memories.

The open-concept living area provides plenty of room to spend time together after a day on the water, while the fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare anything from a quick breakfast to a fresh seafood dinner.

One of our favorite places is the front porch overlooking Core Sound. It's the perfect spot for morning coffee, afternoon conversations, or simply watching boats drift across the water. Upstairs, the private deck off the primary suite offers another peaceful place to unwind while taking in panoramic views of the island.

Perfect for Boaters
Point of View was designed with boaters in mind.

Our oversized double driveway offers generous parking for multiple vehicles and boat trailers, and the free NC Wildlife public boat ramp is just minutes away, making launching your boat quick and convenient.

After a day on the water, you'll appreciate having plenty of space to park, unpack, and prepare for another adventure.

Whether you're heading offshore, exploring Core Sound, or making the trip to Cape Lookout, this is an ideal home base.

Private Community Beach Access
One of Point of View's hidden treasures is access to the quiet Cape Point Village community boardwalk.

A short stroll leads to a peaceful residents-only beach where you can:
-Launch a kayak or paddleboard
-Search for seashells
-Watch dolphins and coastal birds
-Enjoy spectacular sunsets
-Relax away from crowded beaches
-Take peaceful morning or evening walks along the shoreline

It's one of our favorite places—and we think it will become one of yours too.
