About this property

Marsh Magic: Serene Getaway Near Sunset Marina and Inlet

*This well-appointed home, located in west Ocean City, has 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms and offers a sense of style and luxury. Enjoy the home's peace and serenity from the inlet and the cool ocean breezes.

The house features an inverted floor plan, with the main living area on the top floor. An elevator helps move your groceries and guests from floor to floor. The floor plan is especially accommodating for multi-generational families.

The house has two kitchens, one on the first floor and one on the top floor. Each contains a full-sized refrigerator, stove, microwave oven, and dishwasher, as well as a toaster, blender, and coffee maker, and pots and pans, dishes and silverware.

*On the first floor: A one-bedroom, "mother-in-law" apartment with its own separate, handicapped-accessible entrance. When the whole house is rented, the apartment door is unlocked, providing easy access to the rest of the house and the elevator. The full-sized kitchen with eat-in bar is stocked with essential cooking utensils. The sleep sofa in the living room contains a queen-sized mattress. The bedroom has a queen-sized bed. Bathroom with shower/tub combination. Hardwood floors in the kitchen, living area, and bedroom; quartz kitchen countertops; ceiling fans; television; compact washer/dryer.

Large, private deck with sofa and table and chairs overlooking the marsh -- great for early morning coffee and bird watching.

*On the second floor: A luxurious master bedroom suite with king-sized bed and bath with oversized tub and separate shower. Enjoy views of the marsh, marina, and inlet in the large adjoining sitting room. Hardwood floors in the master bedroom and sitting room. Private deck off the sitting room.

Two additional bedrooms on this floor (one bedroom has two twin beds and one bedroom has a queen-sized bed). Decorated in nautical themes. Hard wood floors. The bedrooms share a bathroom (tub/shower combination) and a deck with views of Sunset Marina.

Full-sized washer/dryer located on this floor.

*On the top floor: The open floor plan features a spacious, great room with beautiful hardwood floors; large sectional sofa (that includes a chaise, "lazy boy" chair, and queen sleeper); gas fireplace. Game table, separate chaise, and sink/counter space with compact refrigerator.

Sliding glass doors take you to the deck overlooking the wetlands. The deck includes a full-sized table and seating (chairs and benches) and charcoal grill.

The kitchen features hardwood flooring, granite counter tops, island with seating, eating nook, and deck overlooking Sunset Marina. The front deck includes a full-sized table and seating (chairs), serving cart, and gas grill.

***Walk to Sunset Marina and OC Fisherman's Marina. From the kitchen, you can see boats leaving and entering Sunset Marina, which is about a 5-10 minute walk from Marsh Magic. Also in the area of Sunset Marina are great local restaurants including: Sunset Grille; The Shark; Crab Alley; Harborside; and Sello's (Italian).

****Down the street from Sunset Grille you can purchase fresh seafood from Martin's Fish Company to cook at home.

*****From the back decks, you can see the boats at OC Fisherman's Marina, which is a 10-minute walk from Marsh Magic. OC Fisherman Marina features a gift store and restaurant, Mickey Finns, overlooking the inlet.

In short, Marsh Magic, which is located on a street that ends in the inlet, is a perfect location if you want to be close to the ocean without the crowds. It is a short walk/drive to the beach and provides easy access to deep sea fishing excursions and opportunities to sample local fare.

***Long-Term Off-Season Availability: The first floor apartment may be rented separately during the off-season (October through April). The apartment, which has a separate entrance from the rest of the house, is ideal for a single adult or a couple.

*The two top floors -- which include the great room, kitchen, dining room, three bedrooms (including the master suite) and two and a half baths -- may be rented separately during the off-season.

Amazing!
The pictures don’t give it justice. The living area on the third floor is much bigger than I imagined it would be. All the bedrooms are on the second floor, excluding the apartment on the first floor. The master bedroom (2nd floor) is humongous, my nephew and his wife and all three kids slept in it. The sitting area in that bedroom is big enough for a blowup double mattress for the little ones. There are no curtains in that area, so it gets bright early in the morning, but it didn’t seem to really bother anyone. The other bedrooms were nice as well. The apartment on the first floor is a very nice feature as there is a full sized kitchen in it so we didn’t have to run up to the third floor when we wanted to eat. We were able to hang out with the family/kids when we wanted to, and escape when we needed to. Also, there is an elevator which is great if you have elderly people who can’t do stairs. It was a quiet location, with porches everywhere. Lots of restaurants nearby that you could walk or ride bike to. Assateague is where we went to the beach. Much less hectic than OC. It was about 20 minutes away. I would absolutely recommend this property. Sharon was very accommodating and full of helpful information about the area. The house was very clean. Enjoy!

Best home we have found in 10 years
This home offers comfort and style, was the cleanest rental we ever experienced and had amazing view, was quiet at night and a beautiful location where you can see boats come and go, walk to a little beach and easily access so many attractions. We were very happy in this home. The owner is very easy to communicate with.

About the host

Hosted by Sharon Taylor

Host profile image
I grew up near Ocean City and went to the beach there with my family for many years. I have many fond memories of my time there. I have since moved away to work in Washington, D.C. but return as often as possible to enjoy the ocean breeze, smell the salt air, and listen to the cry of the seagulls.

Traveling and exploring different countries and cultures is one of my favorite things to do. To date, I have traveled to over 70 countries and every continent, including Antarctica. Some of the artwork and decorations in Marsh Magic were acquired on my travels -- including from Australia, New Zealand, Croatia, Bali, France, Germany, Costa Rica, and Alaska.

Why they chose this property

Being near the water and within view of the boats in the nearby marinas makes Marsh Magic the perfect place for me to escape and relax when the stresses of life start to take their toll. I enjoy staying there when I need to get recharged.

In the mornings I like to stroll to the end of the street to "Homer Guldesky Park" ("Stinky Beach" to the locals) -- a beach located on the inlet. The beach attracts day fishermen and a few sunbathers and, while the current is too swift for swimming there, the beach is great if you just want to feel the sand between your toes and "commune with nature."

Located in the opposite direction from the beach are a number of restaurants -- just a short walk away. That means I never have to venture far to get a great meal.

What makes this property unique

Marsh Magic is within walking distance of several marinas -- most notably in west Ocean City: (i) Sunset Marina; (ii) Fisherman's Marina; (iii) OC Fishing Center; and in Ocean City proper -- (iv) the Talbot Street Pier. Even though I do not fish, it is relaxing to watch the boats navigate the surrounding waterways. From the front deck of Marsh Magic I enjoy checking out the 'mood' of the ocean; though not close enough to hear the waves crashing, I can see if the ocean is stirred up with whitecaps or if it is having a calm day. From the back deck I like to be 'entertained' by the marsh. Sometimes the marsh is a sea of green marsh grass; othertimes, when the tide is high, it literally is a sea (and during storms, there can even be waves!). The marsh attracts a variety of birds that come to feed there. I am not much of a bird watcher, but it still fun to spot their white, gray, or brown plumage in contrast to the green marsh grass. It makes me feel that all is right with the world.
