HeelsHouse is named for its location in the Tar Heel State and the owners' love of all things Tar Heel. The interior of HeelsHouse with its Teak looking wood walls, 14 windows,  and oak built-ins, feels more like a yacht than a house. Most days, about high tide, one can sit on the covered porch and watch a ship "cross the bar" and head up the Cape Fear River to Wilmington. One can actually see the ocean from 11 of the windows and most days, one could actually turn off the air conditioning open the windows and enjoy the ocean breeze. Main Salon:   Watch the waves & the beach through the triple window over the dunes to the beautiful Atlantic. Sectional sofa and swivel chair are perfect for watching the beach or a DVD. Captain’s Bedroom:  Look out at the beach and ocean or Cable TV or all three without even getting out of the queen-sized bed. Mate’s Bedroom:   The mate also gets a queen-sized bed just not quite as good a view of the ocean. Crew’s Bedroom:   What crew would not love to sleep in this room with a single over full bunk and their own DVD/Cable TV Galley:    A new fully equipped kitchen features lots of oak cabinets, and a galley table with swivel chairs. Have your morning coffee while you watch the waves, or feast on fresh local boiled shrimp that you prepared.  Covered Porch: Everybodys favorite place at HeelsHouse. Enjoy the breeze in our Teak Rockers out of the sun. See "HeelsHouse Inside Photos" Page to see pictures
