About this property

The High Tider Retreat + RV Hookup

Put all your worries behind you as you cross the Island bridge and enter the small community of Harkers Island. The High Tider Retreat, provides the quaint coziness you need to relax and enjoy the island life.

You'll be just around the corner from all the local hotspots. Billy's the local grocery store is just a walk or quick golf cart ride away. Be sure to get some of their fresh cut meats and hot breakfast sausage (our FAVORITE). Also, nearby is the Fish Hook Grill, Seaside Restaurant, and the Shark Island Eats food truck at the end of the island (Some places are only open seasonal). During your stay, be sure to schedule a day and take the ferry to Cape Lookout Lighthouse, see the Shackelford Banks Wild Horses, check out Sand Dollar Island, tour the Island and Small Waterfront of Beaufort, listen to the waves crash on Atlantic Beach, and take a tour of the famous Core Sound Waterfowl Museum. Lastly Don't forget to check out Down East Kayak Rentals to take a quick kayak around island and catch the magnificent sunsets. You can always relax at the Harkers Island Beach Access that is located right when get off the bridge onto the Island.

The modern southern style decorating greets you at the driveway and is continued throughout the home. The open concept Living and kitchen area are great for entertaining during your stay. The Primary Bedroom suite offers a comfy King bed and smart-tv with attached bathroom and walk in shower. The second bedroom on the opposite side of the home offers a Queen bed, next is the shared bathroom and then the third bedroom with a Trundle Twin bed. For additional sleeping, snuggle up on the couch in the Living Room.

The backyard boasts a grilling area for all the fresh fish you will catch during your stay. As well as a worry free fenced in yard to watch your fur babies run while napping in the hammock or having a drink at the outdoor table. The front yard offers plenty of parking for your boat and toys during your stay. You'll be conveniently located to the nearest boat ramp at the Harkers Island Fishing Center, beside Billys store.

The kitchen is stocked with all the cookware and dinnerware you'll need to enjoy your stay. The linens are all sanitized with bleach to ensure top quality cleanliness. The washer and dryer are available for your stay in the laundry room.

Beach Options
Harkers Island Beach Access - approx 2 miles from the house, its right when you get off bridge to the island. It is on the sound. There is free limited parking.

Atlantic Beach, NC - This is the coast of NC, where you will pay to park and be on the actual beach. This option is 23 miles away. Plenty of parking.

Ferry to the Cape Lookout Lighthouse - THE BEST and MOST FUN option. This is what we do most weekends. You'll drive down to the end of the island (approx 1 mile), hop on the large passenger ferry boat (my uncle is one of their captains) and go to the Cape Lookout Lighthouse. Which offers a sandy beach sound side to hang out, or walk over to the other side and lay by the actual beach. Also, can climb the lighthouse. For the Ferry Option you would need to book in advance and pay the fee (they offer numerous trips to and from during the day)

BUT WAIT, want to invite more family that has a camper or motorhome? We have a 50AMP full service hookup, for an additional fee of $50 per night. Just send us a message to set this up!

Pets are allowed with an additional $200 non-refundable fee. They must be house trained.

Down east never disappoints
We enjoyed our stay, the listing was as described. The house was fully furnished with everything needed. Owners even provided us with a Bluetooth speaker as we forgot ours at home. Everyone enjoyed their stay even the dog! And when it rained, we enjoyed ice cream from the local gift shop/restaurant. We have already recommended this place to friends that have expressed an interest in visiting Down East!

Why they chose this property

Hi! We have owned the land for years, as my wife was born and raised on the island. We put this brand new Mobile Home in 2020, and then had the opportunity to purchase my grandfathers home just down the road. So here we are, setting this place up so you can enjoy, what we call, paradise.
