EVERY GREEN DESERVES A Touch Of Blue
Bay Creek is the first community in the country to feature Signature golf courses from two of the greatest to ever play the game, Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus. Both courses are Signature designs from the legends themselves, created with a mission to enhance and complement the inspiring natural beauty of the land. Incorporating acres of dunes and mature woodlands along the shores of the Chesapeake Bay, Palmer and Nicklaus successfully created a golf experience that delights and rewards golfers of all skill levels.
TIME CAN BE Measured in Tides
Discover the majestic beauty of a landscape shaped by the rhythm of water—from the vast expanses of the Chesapeake Bay to the peaceful ponds and meandering creeks nestled inside Bay Creek’s Nature Preserve. Live here long enough and you’ll find yourself moved not by the hands of a clock, but by the gentle pull of the Eastern Shore tides.
You’ll find yourself quite at home on two miles of private beach on the Chesapeake Bay. Fiery waterfront sunsets will ignite your sense of wonder and set you dreaming about life’s possibilities. Get to know the unspoiled natural paradise that will become your own. Remember the last time you built a sandcastle or brought home the perfect seashell?

The ecosystem of the Eastern Shore is one of the richest and most diverse in the U.S., and life at Bay Creek means your family has a front-row seat to daily experiences you never thought possible.
A SMALL TOWN Can Have Big Charm
In 1607, when Captain Christopher Newport and the first colonists who settled at Jamestown entered the Chesapeake Bay, they sighted the tip of the Eastern Shore peninsula, which they named Cape Charles. The land that is now Bay Creek was first surveyed a year later by Captain John Smith, who took note of its fertile soils and abundant marine life. Over the centuries this land has hosted dignitaries ranging from railroad titans to U.S. Presidents.
Today, Cape Charles is a thriving village with a surprisingly worldly blend of shops, restaurants, parks and art galleries. Whether you’re window-shopping on Mason Avenue or enjoying a live concert or play at the restored Palace Theater, Cape Charles will quickly capture your heart. For boating enthusiasts, Cape Charles boasts an inviting waterfront and harbor with two marinas welcoming all manner of seacraft.
