Harbor Island is in the heart of Wrightsville Beach and one of the most sought-after locations in Southeastern North Carolina. This area is known for its peaceful nature, convenient access to all the local attractions, and is extremely family friendly.

When you arrive at the bungalow, there are three convenient entrances to the home, via the front door, garage, or back door. The rocking chair front porch leads directly into a roomy living area, including a TV equipped with a Roku and sizable sectional couch, ideal for calming to watch a movie, or looking directly out a huge widow over Banks Channel. Also in the main living area is a dining room with cozy sitting for up to 6 people to appreciate dinner, and a gorgeous kitchen ideal for preparing dinner or sandwiches for a day at the beach. Off the living room is a sundeck overlooking striking Banks Channel, ideal for appreciating morning coffee, dinner, or an evening glass of wine.

Down the hallway are three bedrooms. The master bedroom is outfitted with a king size bed, and the second and third bedrooms each have their own queen bed. Full size bathroom includes a combo shower and tub, and the downstairs half bath serves as a second bathroom option, with adjacent enclosed outdoor shower.

Upon waking in the morning, savor your morning coffee on the rocking chair front porch or side deck overlooking Banks Channel. Once you are ready for the beach, load up the beach wagon we provide with body boards and beach chairs, which are also included. Then, take a short walk across the bridge and enjoy a day in the sun and sand, or launch your kayak steps away from the bungalow at public water access. Upon your return home, enjoy showering off the sand in the enclosed outdoor shower. The home is located just off the Wrightsville Beach Loop, which is a well known 2.5 mile walking/running trail with handsome vistas of the water.
