Mike was an amazing host and the property is absolutely gorgeous! We felt safe and were treated like family. This place is an absolute gem and we'd recommend it to anyone!
We got in late but the owner was quite understanding and made us feel at home. Everything was clean and functioning. Next morning, the breakfast was very good and our host sat down and chatted for awhile. Very interesting local stories about the revolutionary and civil wars
wars. Before we left, we got a few recommendations for restaurants in our next stop. Very nice overall.

The owner was great. Breakfast was good. Property is in need of upkeep. Steps down to beach not very safe.
This stay was wonderful. The host was informative and friendly and the location on the Chesapeake Bay was beautiful with an amazing private beach. This is a place for a quiet stay as Cape Charles is about 15 minutes north. The room was comfy and breakfast was great.
Mike was an excellent host. The morning coffee was a wonderful blend ready to enjoy (on the balcony overlooking the bay) at 6:30 am. I missed breakfast because I had to leave early but he gave me a nice warm muffin to take with me. The room was comfortable and everything was extremely clean and fresh. I highly recommend the Baywood for you stay on the Eastern Shore.
The hospitality at this traditional bed and breakfast was top notch. The rooms were comfortable with a fantastic view of the water. The beach was accessible from the house. The host, Mike, was very friendly and prepared a wonderful breakfast each morning, so much that I couldn’t quite finish it. Delicious. Quiet and peaceful place to stay while you explore Cape Charles and the Eastern Shore.
We had a great time. Our host was very knowledgeable about the area, with good advice for places to explore and restaurants for dinner. Good history info for the area as well.
I can't say enough good things about The Baywood Bed & Breakfast. This was my second visit, and it was just as lovely as the first. The cleanliness of the room is beyond any five-star establishment that I have stayed in. And the breakfast that is cooked by the Host Mike puts any breakfast I've had in any dining establishment to shame! I HIGHLY recommend the Baywood to anyone looking to enjoy a quiet, peaceful and relaxing experience.
The property was lovely and I really liked the access to the bay (the steps were a little challenging for my age). The room was comfortable and well stocked. The cooling was controlled for the floor and was a little too cool until 10pm. Breakfast was terrific! My only poor experience was with the host who served and then sat at breakfast with the five guests. After a small amount of checking in with everyone, he (and the other male guest) dominated the conversation. I felt I had to leave early because of the discomfort I felt.
The property had easy access to beach. The view from our room was stunning. Mike was an excellent host and we enjoyed talking with him. His knowledge of the history of the area was an added bonus to our stay. Breakfast was a real treat with an Italian egg dish, homemade muffins. sausage,fruit,juice and coffee. We cant wait to go back.
