Great Spot in OC

The unit was clean and had everything we needed for our 3 night stay. Great proximity to the beach, restaurants and bars. We would definitely rent here again.

We loved staying here!

My boyfriend and I stayed here while visiting for a family trip and it was amazing! She let us check in an hour early and when we entered it was incredibly clean and smelled wonderful! I love how close it is to the beach! But if you are coming for July 4th, be aware it can get noisy from teens and such.

The location to the beach alone is worth it! Walkinh distance to a decent breakfast spot, and dinner if you're not looking to drive. Easy check in and out. No worries at all. Maybe this will be our annual vacation spot?!?!

Peaceful place with a minute walking distance to the beach. We loved not having to worry about umbrellas and chairs (they were provided). I was the happiest with the washer and dryer when we needed to wash our towels and swim trunks. Our host was wonderful when we encountered a small issue initially. Promptly responded and we were able to resolve everything. We all loved our stay.

Great Getaway!

We enjoyed our stay and would certainly consider a stay again. It’s at a great quiet location, steps to the sand and also has many amenities. The parking is under the units and a little tight for a large SUV, but maneuverable with finesse lol!

About the host

Hosted by Cathy Hanson

Host profile image
While growing up and attending college in upstate NY, I took road trips with friends to Ocean City, MD and have countless fun memories of the beach life. Through the years we have traveled to OC from Western MD for weekend getaways with family and always dreamed of owning a place near the ocean. Eric and I have been married nearly 25 years and have two teenagers, one in college and one ready to go. We're beyond blessed to own this beautiful, clean, and spacious unit just steps to the relaxation and peace the waves always bring to us. My dream has always been to own a small condo near the ocean where we can escape and share this dream with others. We seek to provide you an affordable getaway that's convenient to restaurants, shopping, miniature-golf and memories of a lifetime. We take great pride in our immaculate condo and its numerous amenities and wish you the best of times on Assawoman Dr.!

Why they chose this property

I've enjoyed long weekend beach trips with my sister and daughter over the past several summers and we offer what we always looked for when we were searching: cleanliness, space for 6, and location on a beach block. Dragging a heavy beach cart across Coastal Highway, waiting for the light in the hot sun, and running off the beach when a storm was coming were NOT the highlights of our getaways! This property offers a private walkway to the beach from the covered parking area and is perfect for travelers like us that love a short walk, especially at nighttime, to hear the ocean and view the stars.
