WATERFRONT Property on KDH Bike Path with water access, bikes, kayak, and canoe
Over 200 5 star reviews! Please view the new VIDEO of Baywood added this year... Come relax in my pet friendly home with a fenced sound front yard (ideal for dogs). I've made tons of improvements and updates in 2026, this year! "Baywood" is a two bedroom extremely well appointed property where you can watch beautiful sunsets over the water from anywhere in the backyard or deck, it's always ready for you! I have the best cleaners in the OBX...the home is always in tip top shape! My guests positive experience is my primary goal, after all... You have worked hard and have chosen my property Baywood to spend your time and hard-earned dollars, I want my guests to not only enjoy themselves but have a fantastic time and fall in love with Baywood.
Baywood has been recently renovated with new flooring, interior painted this year, the backyard is fenced for you & your fur babies, as well as new furniture additions this year! This home is an elevated beautifully constructed 2 bedroom, 2 bath sound front piece of heaven. Included with your rental are 2 beach cruisers, tandem kayak, and a canoe you can launch from the property's dock. An outside shower is available as well as a gas grill, firepit, & a dock and crab pots for fishing right in your own backyard. My very romantic and sound front home is an excellent choice to vacation with its proximity to shopping, restaurants, arts, sightseeing, laser tag, boating, fishing, bird and bear watching, jet skiing, surfing, kite boarding & eco tours.
Baywood is located in the heart of Kill Devil Hills, surrounded by bike & walking paths and the house is located less than a mile from the nearest ocean beach. The new Bay Drive bike path which runs for miles and to the Wrights Memorial is right at the edge of the driveway. Bring your boat, Dock Street boat launch is 1/10 of a mile from this home. While the house is sound front, the tidal range (water depth) only permits canoeing and kayaking directly from the property.
There is a fully equipped eat in kitchen which includes dishes, cookware, cutlery, barware, & glassware for your every culinary need. Appliances include a blender, both a Keurig coffee maker and drip style types, microwave, dishwasher, gas range & oven, toaster oven, & refrigerator/freezer with ice & water in the door. there's even a big pot available for a crab or seafood boil! I have made every effort to stock Baywood like it's my own home, and want you to have a chef's like kitchen. Well, it kinda is "my home" :)
~ 2 Queen Bedrooms with Ensuite Full Baths ~ High End Mattresses & Pillows ~ Luxury Linens & Towels ~ Beach Towels included ~ Beach chairs, cooler, & beach umbrella provided ~ High speed wireless internet ~ Roku available on all TVs (with Netflix Capability) ~ 65 inch (new) Smart TV w/hi-fi soundbar (Living Room) (Roku) ~ DVD Player (Living Room) ~ 55 inch smart TV with cable in Master (Roku) ~ 42 inch smart TV with cable in 2nd bedroom (Roku) ~ Parking for multiple cars and boat in the driveway ~ Bike trails accessible along the sound to the Wright Brothers Monument run right thru the properties driveway ~ Firepit, benches, & large gas grill ~ Propane provided ~ Outdoor shower with dressing area ~ Fenced in backyard, dog-friendly & (there is no fence on soundfront bulkhead)
Enjoy drinks from the deck while taking in once in a lifetime sunset views. Included in your rental are 2 adult bikes, bike locks, & helmets. Feel free to explore the bike path that extends north along Bay Drive. Bike or Walk to local restaurants, ice cream & coffee shops. Provided for water lovers are a canoe & a tandem kayak (with lifejackets and paddles). Your water adventure and pirating options are endless with the many surrounding islands in the sound.
I want you to have the best possible relaxing getaway in my Outer Banks home! Check-out time is 10 am and departure instructions are included in your welcome letter and are also in the guestbook binder located in my home. Check-in time is set for 4 pm to allow my fantastic cleaners the time they need to prepare the home for your arrival.

Absolutely loved our stay at Baywood. Beautiful views of the sound and a big fenced in yard for our pups. The house was spotless, very tastefully furnished/decorated and stocked with everything we could possibly need. The neighborhood was quiet and close to the beach and other activities.

About the host
Hosted by Ronald Meyer
I'm a rural Virginia native, primarily live in Norfolk VA now. I hope to retire in the Outer Banks someday. I am an art and artist enthusiast and really enjoy being in the outdoors, getting out on the water (jet skiing, kayaking, fishing, crabbing, shell collecting, snorkeling and or diving, swimming, boogie boarding/body surfing), and just going to the beach or hiking with my dog/friend an Australian Shepard named "Teddie". I also love working with my hands on home improvement projects. I've found that working with renters and seeing/hearing from people enjoying themselves while vacationing at Baywood is so incredibly enjoyable and fulfilling!
Why they chose this property
I love the OBX and especially my home "Baywood" location on Bay Drive. I've lived off and on in the Banks roughly 10 years now. My house (Baywood) is centrally located near the amenities of the town of Kill Devil Hills, yet the property remains private and serene right on the water (Sound side) feeling perfect for relaxing. The new bike path on Bay Drive runs right through my driveway for easy and safe bike riding. Plus, Kayaking, firepit nights, fishing, crabbing, sunsets over the water from the backyard, and just plain "relaxing" are my favorite things about the house. My neighbors on both sides are great people and very friendly, both homes are second homes to them so I often have no neighbors around.
What makes this property unique
Waterfront sound access right from the property and backyard dock. Newer bikes are there for usage, a two man kayak and a two person canoe are included in the rental (life jackets and paddles too). A large grill is on the patio where you can grill and watch the sunset over the water. There is beautiful and original artwork and paintings from OBX native artists placed throughout the house. The kitchen is equipped with chef style cooking in mind. Many of my renters have complimented the kitchen's abundance of anything they've ever needed and the appliances are updated frequently. I truly take pride in the immaculate condition of my home so you can enjoy yourselves while visiting. The Kill Devil Hills bike path runs directly in front of the driveway making it easy to walk, bike, skate, scooter, etc. safely and easy from the house. The bike trail goes all the way to the Wright Brothers Memorial Park...Bring your own bikes or use the two adult bikes already waiting for you. Be safe!
