Slip away to the Harborlight Guest House, on the Central North Carolina coast, and relax amidst shady palm trees and a tranquil waterfront. The inn is a secret hideaway; there are no signs on the highway, therefore resulting in a very private and secluded waterfront inn for the guest who needs an escape from their hectic daily lives! The inn sits on a peninsula surrounded on three sides by water, thus all suites have stunning views of Bogue Sound and the Intracoastal Waterway. All suites feature jacuzzis, and/or fireplaces and the waterfront sunsets are a spectacular conclusion to a day of shelling, shopping, and exploring the Crystal Coast.

The inn offers 530' of shoreline on Bogue Sound and the rocking chairs on the decks are perfect spots to read a good book or just enjoy the wildlife along the waterfront. If guests prefer the sand and surf, the innkeepers will share the hidden treasure of Hammocks Beach State Park, located 5 miles from the inn. Only accessible by boat, this island was rated by a national travel magazine as one of the top ten beaches of the United States! Other favorite island excursions include trips to Cape Lookout Lighthouse to gather Whelk Shells and discover pristine and very private beaches. Visitors to the Crystal Coast during Spring, Summer, and Fall will have a variety of activities to choose from including water sports, museums, the NC Aquarium, an outdoor drama, and fishing tournaments and annual festivals. October - December offers great days for beachcombers and area Christmas events are happening also. The Core Sound Decoy Festival brings master decoy carvers from around the country; the Christmas Flotilla of decorated boats parading on the waterfront; the Swansboro Waterfront Candlelight Tour of the shops are "get in the Christmas mood" fun things to do! January-February visits to the Harborlight Guest House are quiet times to rejuvenate and recover from the Holidays!
