Talk to a Specialist →Bayside is built around a Nicklaus Design 18-hole golf course — a genuine, high-quality course, not a filler amenity. Golf membership is typically not automatically included in the HOA fee; verify the current structure directly before budgeting, since this has varied over time and across sections. For buyers who golf 30+ rounds a year, Bayside’s course quality is a legitimate differentiator versus every other Sussex County 55+ community except The Peninsula and Heritage Shores.
Bayside spans roughly $350K to $850K+ across floor plans and lot positions, with active new-construction phases from K. Hovnanian. The community’s Selbyville address puts it closer to Maryland’s Eastern Shore beach corridor than to the Lewes-Rehoboth market — Fenwick Island is about 6 miles away and Ocean City, Maryland is roughly 14 miles, versus Rehoboth Beach at approximately 20 miles.
Assawoman Canal access gives some sections water proximity distinct from the ocean-beach access that Rehoboth-oriented communities offer. Buyers whose vacation history points toward Ocean City and Maryland’s Eastern Shore will find Bayside’s geography more intuitive than Millsboro or Lewes-area communities.

Bayside is smaller and more curated than Four Seasons at The Estuary’s 1,200+ homes — the community trades scale for a resort-atmosphere feel. Amenities extend beyond golf to a full resort-style package; verify current clubhouse, pool, and fitness details directly with the sales office as the community continues active construction.
Bayside is the right choice for buyers who play golf regularly and want course quality to matter, who prefer a resort atmosphere over a larger big-community social scene, and whose beach orientation points toward Ocean City and Fenwick Island rather than Rehoboth. It fits buyers with family or social ties to Maryland’s Eastern Shore.
It is a weaker fit for buyers who golf infrequently — the HOA premium over non-golf communities is real money for something you won’t use often — or for buyers whose primary beach orientation is Rehoboth and the Lewes corridor.
