About this property

Great North End location, Beach block, Pet Friendly, now renting 2025

This home has been family owned for 3 generations enjoying all the nostalgia and excitement of the Jersey shore. This first floor unit has been completely renovated to provide all the modern amenities, while designed to maintain a historic appeal. You will notice refinished original hardwood floors, solid wood 5-panel doors, accents of seashore tiles, and a stained glass transom. All mattress sets are 'Heavenly Beds' by Simmons for luxurious comfort, and all bedrooms along with living and dining room have ceiling fans.

The kitchen, with all stainless steel appliances, provides open access to the living area and front porch, great for family gatherings and entertainment. Solid surface counter tops include a double sink and additional bar sink. The front enclosed porch also includes a breakfast area with a built-in window seat. Outside fencing provides a private area for sitting, watching the passer-bys and grilling! A gas Weber grill will be provided.

This unit is 1 block from the beach and the start of the boardwalk. This north end of the boardwalk hosts the 1st street lifeguard station with bathrooms and first aid. Close on the boards is Brown's restaurant, famous for their fresh morning donuts, and Anthony's Water Ice for those hot beach days. At the opposite end of our block from the beach, there is a deli, restaurant, pizza shop, and ice cream parlor within 1-3 short blocks. Additionally, we offer 6 beach tags, some sun/salt air weathered beach gear, umbrella and old time beach cruiser bikes to get started on your fun.

Staying at Tristan's home made for an unbelievably great time! Her home is stocked with linens and towels which made our travel so much easier. The walk to the beach did not give usvtime to dry off if we just stepped out of the water. Definitely would like to stay there again.

This is a lovely house in a great location. Tristin was great to work with - friendly and accessible but never intrusive. Having the bikes was great, and the location made it a quick ride to the boardwalk or the center of town. The house itself is spacious, well laid out, and was clearly recently upgraded. It was comfortable and clean, and the kitchen was well equipped. We had a great stay and will definitely be back!

Perfect spot for family vacation

This beach house was perfect for our family's getaway. The house was clean, fully stocked with necessities and close to the beach. My children had a blast and loved that the boardwalk started down the street. Bathrooms right outside of the beach entrance were great. The street is quiet and the beach block was less crowded and also had a lifeguard which was more than we could ask for. Would definitely rent again!

This was the best rental property we’ve stayed at through VRBO. The house was adorable- old charm but fully updated. The location was fantastic - super close to the beach and right at the start of the boardwalk, but quiet and away from the hustle and bustle. And you can’t beat the north end of OC. Tristin was wonderful with communication - very clear, complete instructions and details. Couldn’t have asked for a better rental experience, and would 100% come back here! You will not be disappointed with a vacation at this location!!

Beautiful home and wonderful experience

We stayed here in September 2024 with our dogs and newborn baby. The house was clean and cozy. Tristin was very communicative and ensured we had a good experience. We loved the proximity to the beach and the short drive to the dog beach (5 min), the outside shower & having a washer and dryer. We would absolutely stay here again!

My pup and I had a wonderful stay at Tristin’s home. It was cozy and clean, and a short walk to both the Boardwalk and downtown OC. Tristin was proactive in communicating about our reservation, and made sure we had everything we needed for a restful vacation. I would be comfortable recommending this property to other renters!

Wonderful Dog Friendly Rental!

We had a wonderful time staying at this property! Beautiful first floor condo which evokes nostalgia with a “vintage shore house” feeling, but it’s also been nicely updated - so it’s really a comfortable and lovely place to stay. So happy we could have our dog with us, too! Easy one block walk to the start of the boardwalk and the beach, and within walking distance of some wonderful restaurants and stores. Tristin the owner was wonderful to deal with - so welcoming and accommodating and available if we had questions. Property was really clean upon arrival, too! Overall, an excellent place to stay!!

Best vacation ever!

My mom and I so enjoyed our stay! The home was immaculate and the beds were so very comfortable. My mom really enjoyed the massage chair. It was so nice that the paper products were included and the kitchen had everything that we needed. The location is perfect with just a short walk to a fully stocked deli, the Island Grill restaurant, Browns doughnuts on the boardwalk (you must try), and the beach. Having our fur babies with us instead of having to board them was a wonderful bonus and helped us to relax even more. Adding to all of that is the fact that the owners are so very nice and attentive to your needs. You will not be disappointed!

Great beach house

House was clean and perfect for our family’s stay for a few days. Tristin was delightful to work with and very responsive. My only issue would be the parking situation since I didn’t realize until right before our trip that it was street parking only. I had to drive around for almost an hour looking for parking the day we arrived and ended up parking over a half mile away. As a result we took Lyft or Uber everywhere we went, which got a little expensive

Lovely stay

My husband and family stayed at this beach house for 7 days (6 nights). Location was perfect, 11/2 blocks from the beach/boardwalk so it was pretty easy walk to and from the beach and boardwalk which we did everyday we were here. House was very clean and comfortable. Kitchen had all necessities for a comfortable stay. Beds were comfortable which made for good sleeping/resting. It got cool/cold at night and blankets were handy. And having washer and dryer was great, so one doesn't need to over-pack for the trip. Tristin was easy to communicate with and very responsive to all your needs. The only issue was street parking, which Tristin can't really control. All in all a beautiful stay.

Clean, Comfortable & Close to Beach and Boardwalk

Myself, my husband, son, daughter-in-law and 6 year old grandson were very comfortable here, and there was plenty of space for my son to have work meetings and my daughter-in-law to do floor exercises. And for all of us to play marathon Monopoly games! The kitchen was very well stocked with cookware, plates, and cutlery. The only thing lacking was a tea kettle, which I mentioned to Tristin. The other thing that would be a very welcome addition is an umbrella to shade the outside seating area for the ground floor unit, which is the one we rented. But that space was equipped with plenty of comfortable chairs for all of us. We had a minor flushing problem with one toilet which Tristin very promptly had repaired. She responds quickly to texts. It was not the best beach weather, but we would gladly return to this rental in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Tristin Thompson

Host profile image

Hello, I am Tristin Thompson, 3rd generation home owner to this property. I spent my summers in this house on the 3rd floor while tenants rented the 1st and 2nd floor. I was responsible for cleaning the rentals on Saturdays before I could go ride my bike or play on the beach and boardwalk. My father still uses the 2nd and 3rd floor during his summers. I reside in Kentucky and only get to visit Ocean City for short durations to get the property ready for the summer or to close it down. I love staying there and I love how the entire renovation provided new updated conveniences but still gives me the comfy feel of summer at the beach!

Why they chose this property

This place is a family keepsake, passed down through the generations and with the memories of Ocean City summers. It is totally renovated with all modern conveniences. Location is ideal for all the activities in Ocean City

What makes this property unique

Great Location, Active street for people watching, Close to the beach. The Heavenly Beds make for a dreamy comfortable sleep. Remember I am a chiropractor, so comfort and support is necessary for good sleep!
