High Tider Matchmaker
Get ready to relax in this quaint one-bedroom private home on Harkers Island. Where once lived, Ms. Hilda Guthrie, the island matchmaker – funny enough, she never got married herself. The cozy home, originally built in the 60s with a couple updates since, is nestled in the heart of the Island. Whether you're unwinding after a day of exploring or enjoying a cool breeze on the porch. This home has a lot of its original character, imperfect floors and doors. But it’s clean and ready for memories!

Wild Rose Cottage, Gardens, & Stained Glass Studio
Our 1914 cottage has weathered many storms and stands tall with charm. She is well loved and lived in. We have chickens pecking, ducks waddling through the gardens, sun shining through our stained glass, spiders spinning webs, paint drips, palmetto bugs, an old swing in the front yard, cats napping, Spanish moss in the trees, and a screened-in porch to take in the beauty of a long day's sunset. Our island homestead is for those looking for a down-to-earth stay with nature & art close at hand. ♥
