3BR Harkers Island Dream! King bed! WaterViews

JuliaRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago

We had some trouble booking and Kim was so helpful and responsive. The views were even better than the pictures. Check in and check out was a breeze! The house was free of clutter and smelled fresh. Everything was very clean especially the linens and bathrooms. Our only complaint was the floors. It seemed they may have been skipped and we had lots of grey/dirty feet at night. Otherwise, things were spotless. The bed upstairs had a loose headboard but we just wedged a pillow between to keep it from rattling. We had a toddler with us so the open stair case to the basement was a bit scary. Overall, it was great and we would stay there again, especially knowing we would have Kim’s kindness and hospitality! We enjoyed our last minute booking and think it was worth every penny! We enjoyed the kind neighbors and walking around the subdivision. It was more than enough room for 6 adults to be comfortable. We absolutely loved each couple having their own room and bathroom! Thanks, Kim!
