Tiny Living at the beach

Good location to be able to walk to the beach, boardwalk, playground, bay, etc.. House is very small, but we wanted the tiny living experience!! We were able to park our car for most of the week and just walk everywhere. We definitely enjoyed our stay and hope to be back next year!

Real nice and perfect for a family of 4 for a week.

Place was awesome. Real clean and perfect for the 4 of us and for the grandparents for 2 night. Sal was awesome. Bay right behind us beach and boardwalk 7 minute walk. No riff raft in the neighborhood. He had crab traps if you wanted to crab. Plenty of parking. Beds were comfy and clean. Foldout couch was a hot too. Already looking forward to next year!

Great trip!

My family and I stayed here and we had a great trip! We were happy to be able to bring our small dogs because I do not like to board them. Check in was easy, the host Sal was very helpful. The place was cute and clean. The ceilings are low, but no one in our family is super tall so we were okay. I think if you were over 6 ft it may be hard though! The kitchen was well stocked and I enjoyed being able to bbq on the grill. I wish it was a little closer to the beach, however we walked to the beach and boardwalk every day and got our steps in!! Overall a wonderful experience. Thanks!

Great stay in Ocean City

My wife, toddler, and dog stayed for 4 days/3 nights for a post-Labor Day getaway. The space is small and as the listing says the ceilings are very low. But, it was a good space with a deck, grill, and is a relatively short walk to the beach and boardwalk. We enjoyed our weekend.

Nice location

It’s a bit of a walk to the boards and beach but we managed with a 2 year old. It’s about 6 or so blocks from beach and boardwalk. It’s a tiny place but met our needs. I did read reviews about the ceilings before and quickly found out how slanted they were. I probably hit my head at least 10 times. But all in all we had a great time. The owner is great and responsive. If I had to stay again I would.

Avoid

Avoid. Avoid this Unit. Avoid this Owner. The ceiling description is deceptive since the ceilings slope considerably. Your grade school children will bang their head constantly along with adults. If you rent here load up on Advil or wear a helmet. We enjoyed the side deck with only the stars above - not real stars – the stars that we saw from banging our heads repeatedly. The 5 minute walk description is also untrue and deceptive. It is more like 20 minutes. The toilet is on an asymmetrical platform. You need balancing skills like a Cirque du Soleil performer to do your act. The furniture is stained, the front door lock does not work properly, and so on. Once we arrived home, the deceptive Owner tried to upcharge us through a beach tag scheme. We’ve rented through VRBO for years with great experiences and no issues. This is the one and only bad rental experience. Despite the preceding, Ocean City is great. The beach, boardwalk, shops, museum, library, etc. really fun. The people in the town very hospitable and friendly. We’ll be back to Ocean City once our bumps and bruises heal.
Response from VrboOwner on 21 Jun, 2020
Thank you for providing your feedback. As you stated, our ceiling are sloped as seen in the pictures. We believe this gives our property character and charm. We have priced the unit accordingly as the unit has lower ceilings than normal. We included the 5 minute walk description based on Google Maps. For reference the beach/boardwalk is 0.4 miles away. Due to your feedback, we have since addressed your concerns for any stains on the sofa with our cleaning service. We had a service person to look at the lock to ensure that it works properly. We previously supplied beach tags but we realize that it is difficult for the guest to remember to leave them behind. We adjusted our policy where a deposit is no longer needed for beach tags. As of 2020, we no longer supply beach tags. We try to ensure every guest has a five star stay! Thank you
