About this property

Dawn at the Beach/Garrish Retreat - Waterfront Getaway

This quiet townhouse is nestled on the bayside of Mid-Town Ocean City. With a private boat slip and pier you can fish or crab right in your backyard. A large deck, for you to enjoy having dinner and drinks or just relaxing with a book. Watch the sunset from your private deck off the master bedroom that looks right onto the bay. This fully equipped getaway is great for couples or a family. Both bedrooms have their own private baths.

The beach is a short walk away and shopping and nightlife are abundant. Not to mention the fabulous seafood restaurants everywhere. There are 17 golf courses to choose from. Many Deep Sea Charters available for the fisherman. This location will make your vacation complete!

The property is pet friendly. Many places to walk the dog. Plus, they will LOVE the back deck. Always

Please be advised that from June-Aug I rent from Sunday-Sunday. Short weekends are possible but not promised.
