Sound Views + Sunsets + Cape Lookout Days

Welcome to Harkers Island—where life slows down in the best way, the air feels salty-clean, and the days bring a little dose of old-school coastal nostalgia. From this bright, comfortable home, you’ll soak up sound views (with the Cape Lookout Lighthouse in the distance!) and end your evenings with waterfront sunsets that glow.

Inside, Lookout Cottage is all sunshine and space—walls of windows, roomy gathering areas, and cozy corners made for reading, napping, or catching up after a day outside. Whether you’re cooking for the whole crew or a quiet dinner for two, the fully equipped kitchen makes it easy with thoughtful details, stainless appliances, and a separate dining space.

Spend your days kayaking, biking, and beach-hopping—there’s water access right across the way—and your evenings unwinding on `island time.`
