Had a very pleasant stay here for two nights in the Bogue Suite. Facilities are really nice, grounds are nice, views are great. Perfect location on a peninsula on a quiet bay. Fish right off the dock, kayak in the sound. Close to Swansboro and the activities there. Breakfast was good as well. Everyone made you feel welcome and at... More

The staff is super friendly. The location is great. You get served a delicious two course breakfast in your room each morning. This is by... More

This place is a pearl surrounded by unparalled views of the intracoastal waterway. Each suite has a magnificent view. The furnishings are more elegant than any "beach rental" I have ever visited. The only sounds were the water lapping the shore and birds calling. Fishing from the private dock is so easy and peaceful. The breakfast, served on your private... More

My husband and I prefer to stay at B&Bs when we travel and while I can't say we are experts we have stayed at about 10 over the past few years. This location is beautiful, views all around. We stayed in the Emerald Suite and it was just amazing! In this room you can have breakfast brought up to your... More

This was our second trip because the first was so good! Leah, Darryl and Kathy go out of their way to make you comfortable. Place is spotless, Food is awesome. Take a boat trip with Darryl for a different view of the coast. Sunsets, sunrises, egrets, hammocks, and palmtrees. Perfect! The pictures don't lie.

We stayed at Harborlight shortly after Hurricane Irene. We were concerned about going to the Outer Banks so soon after the storm, but everything could not have been more perfect. The owners were so awesome to us...everything from restaurant recommendations to helping us set up a fishing charter with their neighbor, Captain Rob. They even cooked the fish we caught... More

The Harborlight was just what we needed after a hectic wedding week and no immediate honeymoon. My husband returned to work, and I coped with post-wedding craziness, so we needed a break. We're locals, but we checked in at the Harborlight for a night. It was rejuvenating! The view was beautiful, and it was great to have a clean, lovely... More

We spent the week of our 25th here and it was perfect. Breathtaking views, comfortable rooms, and delicious breakfasts.....1 Kathy was so welcoming, she quickly became family and friend there. It is secluded and ever so private. We can't wait to return!!!

Lucked out and went on the most gorgeous October weekend. Loved relaxing in the hammock and waking up early drinking coffee on the small dock and watching the birds. It was a short drive to the Emerald Isle beach and the owners provided us with a great beach bag (chairs, towels and umbrella) for the day. Definitely would reccomend this... More
