Perfect place for a quiet weekend
The place was even better than described! It was perfect for our little family of 4. The location was exactly what we needed. Five or so minutes to the ferry, 25 minutes to Beaufort for dinner and less than 40 min away from Fort Macon. We hope to be able to stay again.

Lovely Getaway
We had a wonderful stay at the island traditions house. The hosts had thoughtfully left a basket of goodies that we all enjoyed. We loved sitting on the porch swing, grilling on the deck and spending family time together in a beautiful place! We also enjoyed the Harkers Island beach and collecfing sea shells. We would love to stay again!

Second to none!
Rae is a wonderful host. The house was full of little "extras" that even made it more special. I would recommend her place to any group that is looking for a place to stay. And I will definitely stay there again when the occasion arises

Hunting trip
Property is awesome. Plenty of space for four duck hunters to come in and relax and warm up after hunting. Rae always kept in touch about any problems that may be happening on the island. 10 out of 10.
