Our stay was wonderful! The one complaint that I have is that someone tried to break into our room when we were in it, it was a very scary ordeal. Other than that happening our first night everything was wonderful and our room was so clean and we loved the little seating area in the room too!

This was an impromptu trip for just the 2 of us and our dog. It’s a basic beach motel room and was exactly what we wanted. The location was across from the public beach access and behind the Dunes restaurant. Super convenient and clean. Will definitely be back.

Room #2-Overall Cleanliness, Fair
We have stayed at the historic Tar Heel in the past & like the location first & foremost. This time, we were disappointed in the service, as far as cleanliness of the room. Arrived Friday afternoon, room was not checked ALL day on Saturday, no fresh towels, coffee, etc. Mention this to the front desk staff, he said there was no staff to take care of room at 2:30PM???
