"Wonderful time as always. My favorite place to stay."

"What a delightful surprise! I booked over the phone and was sent an access code to enter room. The room looked liked it had been remodeled. Nothing fancy, but very comfortable and clean. Fridge, microwave, toaster oven and coffee pot! Would stay again."

"Wonderful time as always. My favorite place to stay."

"Love this motel"

"We loved our stay at the Tar Heel Motel! Very easy check in, and steps from the beach! Very close to great restaurants too. The best part was our dog was able to come for a low fee! We really hope to have an opportunity to come back! "

"The hotel and the staff were great! Can’t wait to come back. "

"I stayed at the Tar Heel Motel on September 1-4th for my nieces wedding. Check in was super easy! The morning of my arrival I received an email with my room number and code to the door as well as other information about the motel and surrounding area. When I arrived, I was able to literally park right outside my door which was wonderful for unloading my car. Each room is a different name and theme. My room was the Striped Bass. I called the desk for towels each day and they delivered quickly. They had a pool that was open, a grill that can be used, and a corn hole set. The corn hole set was used the whole time by my kids. The entrance to the beach was a very short walk across the road. This motel is located on a main road so there was everything accessible from restaurants to entertainment. I can not wait to stay here again, and try another room. This was the perfect get away."

"I LOVE this motel - probably built in 50’s & very recently renovated. The room I’ve stayed in on two diff trips was so clean & comfortable. It felt like a little Air B&B. They send you a room code so you can by pass the office, park right in front of your room like an old ‘motor court’. Very family friendly."

"It"

"We planned an overnight stay in OBX and my wife happened upon this little place. It was perfect for our needs, close to the beach, and the cutest little room ever!! Easy check-in, no keys or cards to mess with as the lock is a digital keypad on the door. There were outdoor grills available for use and a small picnic area. We hope to return one day and utilize all the potential available."

"Great location. Cute beach hippy style rooms. And awesome prices. Love visiting here"

"Great place! Can't beat the tar heel,clean,updated,nice pool and picnic area"

"Excellent location, staff, and very clean. New renovations are fabulous! 3 grills in a grilling section around back with supplied propane 👍. I seen staff at all times walking the property and cleaning. 10/10 would recommend. Rooms : 5/5 | Service : 5/5 | Location : 5/5 … More"

"Fresh renovations made this a comfortable clean place to stay. Double queen room had a mini fridge, microwave, large toaster oven, and Keurig machine. Outside had plenty of picnic tables, 3 large gas grills, fish cleaning station, and a nice looking pool. Quick walk a block over and you're on beach."

"Had a great stay here. As others have said very unassuming from the outside but the inside is nice and cozy. We checked in late evening on Easter and although there wasn't an attendant on site at the time we were helped with check-in remotely. The room we were given hadn't had linens changed but that was likely our fault as we changed our reservation check in to a day earlier on the morning of. Nevertheless we were accommodated very quickly and effortlessly to another well prepared room. We loved the ability to have our dog present with us, I think that is a major plus for your motel as we noticed many other guests had theirs as well. The location is excellent as there are 2 public beach access entrances within walking distance (one almost literally across the street). There are plenty of shops (outlet across the street) and restaurants nearby. The Dunes restaurant is even right on the edge of the property and an easy walk for breakfast/dinner. I was only slightly disappointed with a few things, the pool not being open yet, I couldn't get the gas grills to work but that was likely my fault, and I didn't see the corn hole boards out that I saw in your pictures. The kids and I did have fun playing horseshoes however. All of our needs were met, someone is on site every day cleaning the rooms and taking out trash. Any extra towels or amenity requests we made were promptly addressed. We will be staying here again, thank you"

"Beautifully renovated nice nice receptionists they were very accommodating we definitely will be back"
