About this property
The Best Fishing In Ocean City Can Be Found On This Home's Private Pier!
If fishing is your passion, then then stop your search now! Formerly the fishing retreat of the Trimper family (Trimper's Rides), this home features a private pier for some of the best dockside fishing. As you go out to the end of the pier, it drops off to a depth of 45 Ft. and that's where the magic happens. Fisherman "in the know" are commonly seen fishing around this area as it is a notorious hot spot. But for you, just drop your fishing line and enjoy. If fishing isn't your thing, then we still have you covered. This property boasts some of the most amazing views on the water. Sit and enjoy the day as boats come by bringing in their catch to the local marinas. In the evening, sit back and wait for a front row seat to one of the best sunsets on the east coast! Located near 6th street, your family will enjoy the easy access to the boardwalk and all the fun activities it offers. There are also many great restaurants/bars to choose from, so leave your car parked!
The unit itself has had many updates including flooring, carpeting, painting and TV's but has been able to maintain its Ocean City charm. There is a full kitchen available for those days you want to eat in along with a washer and dryer. The sliding doors and windows invite the relaxing breezes of the bay into the unit and keep it comfy, but AC is available if you need it. My personal favorite part of this house is the dining room table. It was originally designed so that a previous owner could fish directly from the comfort of his home on cold days. The top used to lift up, and he would be able to drop a line down to the water below. Now sealed, it still features a see-through top that allows you to see down into the bay! What will you see during your trip?
Come stay in this charming unit and come create your own Ocean City memories today!

Kitchen was pretty well equipped and it was nice to have a working icemaker. Location was perfect and it was great to wake up to the water every morning. Clean and would totally stay again.

I cannot say enough about how much we loved this property. Such great, relaxing charm. From staying on the water to the dining table. Great stay. Looking forward to coming back.
This is our second time staying at this house and hope to come back again and again.. It’s the perfect location. We only drove our car one time the whole trip. Beach, boardwalk, restaurants are all in walking distance. The house is beautifully furnished, I love the dining room table looking into the bay, amenities were provided. We spent hours just enjoying the gorgeous view on the deck and private dock. Highly recommend and can’t wait to come again.

We usually stay at a full-service hotel on the beach. This was so much better for downtime, family time, and an overall great, more memorable experience. We will book again!

Reviewer Comments:
The Islander is a wonderful place to stay when you’re ready to chill out after the hustle and bustle of the boardwalk. Its serene location on the bay never fails to meet my needs to just relax and watch the birds and dolphins. It’s clean, well stocked and within walking distance to the beach, pubs and restaurants.
Great view from the deck. Love the sunset!!
Awesome location for Fishermen explore the area. Close to restaurants, shops and boardwalk.

Beautiful place well kept. Location you can’t beet. The sunsets on the dock are gorgeous.
This was the second time my son and I stayed at Islander 1. It's our favorite trip of the year. The private pier, the unique table, the cleanliness and convenient location make for a really enjoyable beach trip. My only complaint is that parking is tight but that's normal in OC.

Thank you for the 5-star review and welcome back! We are thrilled that this is your favorite trip and a return guest. We understand that the parking is a little tight and yes that is normal for Ocean City. The only other option would be lot parking which would cost an additional fee. We do hope you enjoyed your time and would love to see you back again.

Loved the property!!! Beautiful views of the bay with postcard sunsets. Enjoyed fishing from the pier and watching dolphins swimming in the bay. Also loved the boardwalk and beach which was only a short walk away. My family and I enjoyed our stay very much and would recommend to everyone!

My family and I had a great time staying at this property! It was clean and had everything we needed. A huge bonus that a fishing pier was right outside - we spent a lot of time out there! We will definitely come back next year. It would be great if availability extended into November - we love to fish during this time of year.

I would highly recommend this property. We’ve been coming to OC for the better part of forty years and this by far was our favorite. The place was clean and view was perfect. The personal dock/deck was the crowning jewel of the unit.

My family and I spent a long weekend (Aug 25-Aug 28) at this waterfront condo. It was conveniently in walking distance to most of the restaurants we went to and to the boardwalk. The view from the deck of the bay was absolutely gorgeous. We were so sad to leave but we will definitely be back again and recommending to others.

Great property with deck right on the bay.
We stayed for Country Calling Festival and the location was perfect. About a 15 minute walk to the entrance of the festival. Great little market just down the street for all of your needs.
Would definitely stay again.
FYI- fishing boats come right up to the pier in the morning so be careful to close the curtains!!

Our family has stayed many places in OCMD, but we all liked this one the best. We did a lot of fishing and just hanging out on the pier. You can't beat the view and the boat traffic is fun to watch. Everything you need is in walking distance.
As others have noted in their reviews, the mattresses are not good, but that would be our only criticism. We're looking forward to staying here again soon.

Perfect location at Ocean City!
Our family really enjoyed staying in this house for our little get away! It was roomy and peaceful, with a well-stocked kitchen for our food prep needs. It was great to sit out on the deck with coffee in the morning, watch the boats go by and view the gorgeous sun set each evening. The bay side is the place to stay to get away from the busy boardwalk, which is truly just a very short walk away but worth every step to be in a different environment, surrounded by cute little homes and peaceful, quiet streets. I would stay here again!
