The Bayside Boathouse has a new dock with step down platform, new interior paint, new flooring, new mattresses, new furnishings, new linens, new fixtures, new artwork, & new decor just for you. The only thing old about our home is its charm! Tucked away in Kitty Hawk, we are close to the beach, have a private boat ramp 1 mile away & are just a couple of miles from Kitty Hawk Woods Reserve. Everything you could need right around the corner!

Bayside Boathouse is a beautifully constructed 2 bedroom, 2 bath waterfront sanctuary from your daily stresses. From the front entry, you can enter the right side of the house where you will find the Captain's Quarters with a queen bed, a full bath with handheld showerhead & a sunroom with views that will encourage you to waste the day away with a great book! This section of the house has a pocket door for added privacy if you have two groups in your party. To the left when you enter is a spacious living area with sliders that lead to the enormous deck on the water side. Through the living area is a large kitchen, with the Mermaid's Quarters to the right. This king bedroom is expansive, with plenty of closet space & a full bath with shower & handheld showerhead.

We are tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac & surrounded by bike & walking paths. Bring your boat, Ivy Street boat launch is a mile from our home. The boat launch doubles as the perfect sunset spot, too! The deep water in the canal fronting our property leads straight to Kitty Hawk Bay. Dock your boat at the house and take it out every day. Our waterfront location in the heart of Kitty Hawk is an excellent choice for your vacation with its proximity to shopping, restaurants, arts, sightseeing, laser tag, boating, fishing, bird watching, jet skiing, surfing, kite boarding, golfing & eco tours.

Host was very good about communicating and we were even able to add a day onto the end of our trip! Great place to fish, swim in the canal, kayak, you name it. House was spacious and great if you are traveling with multiple families or just want the noisy kids on one end and the sleeping adults on the other end. Overall I would stay here again if I were going to stay on the sound I think it would be hard to beat this location. Two things to note that aren't necessarily problems but just for incoming guests to be aware of: 1) some basic kitchen tools like bakeware and other cookware were sparse or non existent. We did purchase a few things like a tea pot and baking dishes and gifted them to the property for future guests. 2) If you've stayed in this area before you may already know this, but there are plentiful "water bugs" which come mostly into the garage area despite the owner spraying. We had a handful make it into the house which was a bit unnerving but if you want to stay on the water it seems there is little you can do about it. Not really an issue with the property just something to be aware of as we were surprised at first but got used to it after a few days. Regardless you won't be disappointed if you stay here and like being on the sound/canal front!

BEST KEPT SECRET IN KITTY HAWK!

The property was such a pleasant surprise in every way. Tucked on the backside of Kitty Hawk near the sound, the property had water access and amazing views. The inside of the property still has that NC Beach Home charm with some modern upgrades in areas that matter most. Pet friendly, fenced yard, great communication from owner, and easy check-in/out process. Great VALUE and worth the rate! Highly Highly Highly recommend this to anyone looking to spend some quality time at the beach that also comes with great privacy. 5 out of 5 for us. Will definitely book again!

Lovely getaway in OBX!

This house was absolutely perfect for two couples! It’s located in an extremely quiet neighborhood. It is clean and bright, has good beds, everything was great! We enjoyed sitting on the dock. Plenty of shops and good restaurants in the area. And there are nice bike/walking paths nearby, as well as an historic cemetery. We are looking forward to returning.

Everything about this stay was amazing. Picture perfect views, host communication/hospitality second to none, accessible to places we wanted to visit but still had the peace & quiet we were looking for.

Little family and fishing time

Excellent location and perfect place to dock your boat for a quick boat ride to great fishing! The house was stocked with everything we needed and very pet friendly and fenced yard. Great communication and quick responses to any questions or recommendations we needed will definitely return for more adventures

Love

We loved this house. Everything was accurate on the listing. The only issue that we had was we couldn't get the fan in the master bedroom to work. Not a game changer. Loved the fenced in back yard for the fur babies. My only issue with the yard was it was not fenced at the water and my fur babies liked to test my n nerves and walk the wall and dock at the water.!! Again not a game changer! We had a wonderful stay!

Great neighborhood waterfront property!

We stayed here as base of operations for a weekend fishing trip. The place is nice and large and we loved the backyard area. The deck is large with lots of seating. Access to the water was great. We didn't use it for a boat. We wanted a place to fish while not out on our charter. It was perfect for that! In the couple of hours we did a little fishing we caught pinfish, drum and some small crabs (all that wr returned to their home). Respomses were always friendly , accurate and quick when we reached out to the owner for small questions and advice. The place is clean and well stocked.

Amazing KittyHawk home base

My wife and I and her parents stayed at The Boathouse over the July 4th weekend and couldn't be happier - the rental is really high class and well taken-care of compared to "the average" beach rental - the kitchen has new, nice utensils and pans, there are ample towels and provided dish soap, etc. The wifi was good, the air conditioning a god-send, and the home owner very responsive and easy to communicate with. Would definitely recommend!

Perfect bay side house

This two bedroom, two bathroom home is perfect for two couples or a couple traveling with an older child. Bedrooms and bathrooms are separated by a large livingroom and outdoor deck. The location is perfect for those who enjoy exploring the bayside by kayak, paddle board or boat (just be sure to bring your own). There is a big garage for your car and gear. The house was very clean and everything is new this season and it is well equipped. The yard is very nice and is fenced to the water, but if you have one of those water dogs (or small child) that will just jump in, beware there is no ramp for them to get back on land. Though a small dock is planned for the future. The manger was very accessible and attentive (but we didn't need much because we were too busy biking and kayaking). A great house that allows dogs! Let's keep it that way by picking up and cleaning up after our furry friends.
