The perfect place!

I stayed at Baywood for a month and it was exactly what I needed - warm and inviting, amazing view of the sound, clean and stocked and perfect for work and relaxing. Ron, the host, could not have been more accommodating and communicative, and even checked on me after we had a random snowstorm. It’s obvious he takes amazing care of his property. I am already plotting my return to Baywood…such a great stay!

Baywood is a great place to stay !

We had a great time staying at Baywood ! Everything was clean and real nice ! The host answered all questions that we had promptly. The view was great also ! We talked to the neighbors on both sides and really had a good time.It gets a little warm on the top deck around 4 pm but the space downstairs and porch swing had good shade and a nice breeze. After about 5 the trees shade the upper deck until sunset. We highly recommend !

Baywood House - I'll be sure to rent next time

Dog safety is most important. The host is fantastic, and caring about my stay. Baywood house is more than what's advertised. Super clean, well organized, and the kitchen is loaded with goodies. You'll be quite pleased if you book this sound front home.

Home with a view!

This is a beautiful property on the bay. Home is right on the water and the sunsets were spectacular. We had plenty of room for the four of us and had everything we needed. Home is located in a quiet area and great for walking with a wide sidewalk. Home is central to all OBX has to offer with plenty of stores, restaurants, and beaches. Back deck and patio are great places to catch the afternoon sun!

Spring Getaway

Baywood exceeded our expectations. The home was incredibly comfortable, it was stocked with all that we needed to enjoy our vacation, it was clean and so tastefully decorated, Ron was most hospitable and easy to reach, the location of the property was so convenient to a multi-use path that was great to walk and the view from the property was beautiful with the sunsets at night being unbelievable. We likewise really enjoyed watching a mated pair of osprey at a nest visible from the house. Baywood made our trip so positively memorable and my family and I look forward to staying at this wonderful property again as we make our way back to the Outer Banks.

Post Hurricane Paradise

What an incredible stay with Ron's property, "Baywood"! We had an absolute blast staying here. The home was so clean and inviting. The kitchen was stocked with appliances and the home had so many cool touches. We happened to be visiting with some cool lunar activity and the telescopes were such a cool touch! We loved the access to the sound, the kayak and canoe. Conversely we also took advantage of the convenience of the bike path and bikes provided! We spent hours on the deck in the sun and loved soaking up the last days of summer before returning to reality. We also love homes where we get to include our dog and Ron's home embraces our four legged family members. We would love to stay again!

Great Place - 5 Stars

This is truly a remarkable house. It is on the Sound and not far from the beach. It has every amenity you could possibly want. The kitchen has everything. Our daughters used the bicycles that were provided. Our dog loved the fenced in backyard.

Beautiful weekend on the sound!

We loved our stay in this adorable soundfront home! The house was very clean and had everything we needed to enjoy a quick weekend in Kill Devil Hills. Areca was super responsive and even allowed us to check-in to the house a couple of hours early. We loved sitting in the backyard and watching the sunset -- and the location in the neighborhood was perfect with the great walking and biking path! We will definitely be back!

Leave you car keys...bring your bikes

Everything was fabulous. A wonderful surprise was the ability to bike everywhere. I strongly suggest bringing a backpack..bike to the beach, Target, Foodlion, movies, etc. Quiet sidestreets and sidewalks on both sides of the main drag Property has two bikes. I brought another. It just feels beachier biking home after a day on the beach with a towel around your neck!

We had a great stay at the KDH house. The house was very clean and was well equipped with kitchen supplies, books, board games, and linen. The backyard was beautiful, located right on the sound with a kayak and canoe available for use. The location of the house is great. Close to the beach, stores and restaurants.

Why they chose this property

I love the OBX and especially Baywoods location on Bay Drive. The central location to the amenities of town yet the serene property right on the water (Sound side) is perfect. Bike riding. Kayaking, fishing, and just relaxing sold me on the house.

What makes this property unique

Waterfront sound acess right from the property. New bikes, kayak, and canoe included, original artwork and paintings from OBX native artists are throughout the house.
