The Hoi Toider @ Harkers Island

The "Hoi Toider" gets it's name from the traditional King's English still spoken by local residents. Harkers Island has the honor of hosting both the Cape Lookout National Seashore Visitor Center and the Core Sound Waterfowl and History Museum along its shores, making it a very special stop during any Crystal Coast trip. The "Hoi Toider" is located one block away from the closest marina to Cape Lookout (Cape Point, $15 launch fee). Free Public Access ramps 2 miles away at the Harkers Island Bridge.

This clean home comfortably sleeps 7.
Includes a full kitchen, laundry, and 2 full baths. Enjoy lounging on the huge screened porches on the front and back of the home (perfect for kids camp-outs). Large, well-lit covered wash down area in back, big enough for two boats. Huge yard with plenty of parking.

Harkers Island is supported by 3 restaurants and multiple grocery and convenience stores. For the vacationer, this is a great place to bring your bikes or enjoy quiet walks.

For the boater, this is paradise with quick access to Cape Lookout, Beaufort, and Morehead City. Monthly rate available upon request.

***If you are a returning guest, please send us a direct message to inquire about discounted rates.***

Our second visit to this property
Half of our group of 8 fishermen stayed at this property for the second time. It is, clean, roomy and has all the amenities one would expect except a dishwasher. The property is large with lots of room for parking and is in a quiet neighborhood which is located near where we needed to meet our fishing guides each morning. The owners kept in contact during our stay and are easy to work with.

3rd stay...planning a 4th
This is our 3rd time renting this property and cannot wait to get another trip planned. We brought our boat this time and it was an excellent decision. It was a rainy week thanks to hurricane season, but we still managed a few boat rides in and had an amazing time. The house is cozy, SPOTLESS, and in a very quiet neighborhood. Owners are the nicest and always quick to respond.

Had a wonderful week and you have a very nice rental. I’m very hesitant to let everyone know how nice the Hoi Toider is because everyone will rent it and take away the weeks I need for myself.

Great Stay on Harkers Island
Great, clean, comfortable home perfect for small to medium size families. This is a quiet out of the way place to stay away from some of the busy beach towns, but with quick access to Cape Lookout and within half an hour of some other great towns along the coast. Not sure why a hot tub is listed as we did not see one anywhere on the property.

Always enjoy family time together and make the best of it when the fish aren't biting. Try again next week hoping the weather is better. Windy so not many days on the water fishing.

Property was clean and well stocked with the items described, sheets, towels every thing needed. Super place to store and wash down boat. Weather only permitted getting on the water with boat once but it was great to have a place to flush motor and wash down boat. Owner was great in showing me a nice place to go with the boat for beach time. Very quiet location to sit on back porch and drink coffee early in the morning. Sunsets at the Core Sound museum were out of this world. Will be back.

Home away from home!
It was another amazing trip at the Hoi Toider! This is one of our family’s absolute favorite places to stay and we’ve stayed multiple times. We already have a winter trip booked there and getting ready to book our next summer trip there making it our 8th stay. We feel so at home there and the property is well maintained. We find new updates each time we visit! Counting down the days until we get to go back!

Quiet relaxing getaway
Chris was more than helpful with info on surrounding area. plenty of written info on hand. As soon as we walked in the door we were greeted with a clean fresh smelling home. Everything was so neat and tidy without clutter. We enjoyed the screened in front and back porch especially during the rain. everything you needed was there. This is a very nice place to stay and the neighborhood was so quiet. Next door neighbors were very nice and offered any assistance if we needed it. All in all would recommend stay here. Thanks for letting us stay here.

A wonderful vacation!
My wife and I have just concluded a wonderful five week vacation at the Hoi Toider. The home is clean, comfortable, commodious and well-equipped. The owners have thought of everything and are quick to respond to any questions one might have. The housekeeping service is excellent and was coordinated with our schedule. A big plus for us was the covered wash bay out back where we could hose down our boat and trailer after a day on the water. And so, without hesitation, we give an enthusiastic double thumbs-up to the Hoi Toider and a great big thank you to the Hefners and to Jenny.

This is the second year we’ve spent a week at the Hoi Toider. Very convenient to the Cape Point Marina and wildlife access. There is plenty of parking and room for boats. The house is very comfortable and has two great screened in Porches. We plan to be back next year!
