This location was exactly as described and just perfect for a short family stay. We loved being on the island and the proximity to the ferry, local beaches, and more. The house was cozy, beds were comfy, and we had a wonderful time. If you're looking for a luxury experience, you may not adore this home, but if you're looking for comfort and ease, this is the perfect place!

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.

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!

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

First time being in this area, and what a great location the house turned out to be. No matter where we went exploring, it was easy to get back to and convenient to everything we wanted to explore. Beds were comfortable and the AC was a welcome comfort from the heat of the day. Porch swing was nice for sitting in the cool air of the night. Would definitely stay here again.

This place was everything we hoped for and more! Cute little vintage home and once inside all the little extras you could need! A welcome basket with treats and even face masks for me to enjoy my time with my daughters- it has been so long since we were together! We enjoyed stained glass classes right down the road-a must do! Loved going on the ferry to see the wild horses and the lighthouse. Great evenings watching movies and snacking. It was so relaxing and fun! Hope to come back!
