About John VanderMyde

My wife and I have been in real estate, design, rentals, and construction on the Outer Banks for 20 years. I recently started thinking about designing and building "spec" homes again, and bought this property to rent to students and then tear down and re-develop. Then I fell in love. Within a week of starting work on it, the plan changed from "student rentals for summer then tear down", to "restore and add modern touches to make a great weekly rental", bridging the way is used to be with the way people like things now. I spent six months doing everything I could think of to improve the place while keeping the old charm. We took the bathroom down to the studs to make it the nicest room in the house. Added a huge TV, fast internet, surround sound system, best stove I could find, new flooring, new doors, stripped and painted the old drywall, all new bedding, and more. My main goal with the house is happy travelers. I'm generally quick to give a refund if I make a mistake or can't fix an issue - however, if you consider yourself "picky", may I respectfully suggest booking another home as we are unlikely to be a good match. If you're read this far... thank you! Creating clear expectations and meeting them is the key to a happy vacation rental home stay for both of us.

Why John VanderMyde chose Kill Devil Hills

A unique combination of new and old make for an inviting, homey, comfortable stay that you just can't get in a house with no history. I can't tell you how many people have told me about the great times they've had in this house, back to the glory days when it was built in the sixties by someone named "Steponovich" which is how it came to be called the "SeaWitch". It's located right in the middle of everything and only steps to the beach.
