This was truly one of the best vacation homes I have ever stayed in. From the moment we arrived, everything was spotless, beautifully organized, and incredibly comfortable. Every detail made us feel welcomed, including the thoughtful gesture of providing treats for my little dog, which meant so much to us.I was attending an intensive online training all week, and the host was incredibly accommodating with my schedule. They responded to every question promptly and were always kind, helpful, and professional.The sunroom became my favorite place in the house. It was peaceful, bright, and the perfect space for me to work comfortably throughout the week.Our entire stay exceeded every expectation. The home is beautiful, well cared for, and truly feels like a home away from home. I would absolutely stay here again—not just once, but many times. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for an exceptional experience. 1000/10

Perfect home away from home

We enjoyed our stay here for 4 nights. The home was immaculately clean with all of the comforts of home. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with plenty of dishes, pots, etc. for cooking. There is a grocery store nearby as well as gas stations, restaurants, and other stores. You will not be disappointed if you choose to stay here!

What a beautiful and comfortable home! Perfect getaway for our family of 4. Close to stores and shops and only a 10-15 minute ride to the beach. This home had everything we needed and the beach chairs and umbrella came in handy. The host checked in during our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend!! Hopefully we will be back!

Perfect Family Vacation

This was our first experience renting through VRBO and it exceeded our expectations! The house was perfect for our family of 5 and the fact we could bring our dog was icing on the cake. Very clean and beautifully decorated. Had all the conveniences we would need for a week at the beach plus access to 5 different pools which was great for the kids! Homeowner was incredibly responsive and accommodating. Would definitely stay here again! Thanks!!

Great stay!

The property was lovely and exactly as advertised! It was clean and spacious. The kitchen had lots of dishes and cooking utensils. There was a nice supply of coffee, teas, and some snacks from the host. The sun room off the kitchen was great for visitors to spread out. The huge tv in the family room was also appreciated. We enjoyed being able to bring our two small dogs. Having a pet friendly property was appreciated. The grocery store was convenient and the property was close to other family members. A lovely house and we enjoyed our three night stay. Thank you Laura for our memorable and fun stay!

A Peaceful Paradise for Families

This charming home provided the perfect escape from the bustling OCMD scene. Nestled in a serene community, it offered a wealth of amenities, including pickleball courts, swimming pools, basketball courts, and numerous parks. The house itself was a delightful retreat, with comfortable sofas and impeccable cleanliness. While there was a minor incident with the queen bedroom fan, Laura's prompt response quickly resolved the issue. The only minor inconvenience was the responsibility of handling the linens upon departure (wash, dry & fold). It made it difficult to depart quickly. Overall, this was a fantastic experience for our family, and we highly recommend it.

The House was perfect for what we needed. But found the kitchen counters sticky and had dry tomato sauce on varies spots of the counter. The refrigerator had dry liquid on the bottom shelf that had been cleaned in some time. The dishwasher was filled when we came but was never cleaned. We just left it the way we found it. The refrigerator was also difficult to open the door to put items in it, due to the molding . The kitchen garbage can was not cleaned out- it was full of coffee grinds and it had terrible odor. But as far as the rest of the home it was cleaned.

Response from VrboOwner on 29 August 2025
Your review is both inaccurate and misleading. I have shared it with my cleaning crew, as it is unlike any feedback they have ever received, and it does not reflect the quality of service we consistently provide to our guests. For the record, your stay caused significant issues and expenses due to repeated violations of house rules. A brand-new vacuum was destroyed after being filled with dog feces and vomit, towels and sheets were left heavily soiled with pet hair, and new linens and bathroom molding was damaged by nailing a towel to the window frame. These actions required costly replacements and extensive cleaning well beyond normal turnover. I have documented these matters with VRBO to ensure the situation is accurately represented. While I regret that you chose to retaliate with an untruthful review, I trust that future guests will see it for what it is.

Close to the beach but not the crowds

Ocean Pines is just minutes from Ocean City but it feels like you’re nestled in the woods. It’s a great location and this home is wonderful. The floor plan is open and the vaulted ceilings make it feel even bigger. Just a few steps to get in, then everything is on one level. The master bathroom is well thought out and perfect for someone with mobility concerns. Our host, Laura even had food and water bowls and tie-outs at the ready for our little dog. There’s plenty of comfortable seating, an enormous TV, and a well equipped kitchen. There’s also a sunroom that we didn’t take advantage of. I’m not sure this lovely home would be the best choice for families with active younger children simply because the yard isn’t ideal for them to run around and play. But for my family and our pup, it couldn’t have been better! We definitely hope to return for another stay.

Spacious for family of four w/ a dog!

A quick get away for our family after school ended. The home is is larger than the pictures showed and super clean! We had a great stay enjoyed iced lattes from Casita Linda in the morning, Popce’s ice cream in the evening. We had no trouble getting over the bridge into OV to get to the boardwalk. Did the oceanfront beach club one day. It was nice to have food and drink served to us there but the one thing I would change is the blasting rap music the second the club opened. It’s mainly families with young kids at hard core rap blasting over the speakers from the beach club was really weird. We made the best of it hung out for a while, swam, grabbed food, (which was really good!) and played corn hole which is available. You do also have to pay to use the pools each day and it’s not cheap - $30 for our fam of four every day we used the pool, make sure you add that into your cost of vacation. Also the ocean pines pool that serves food and drink that is not on the beach does not allow kids. You can go to the family pool Nextdoor. But no food options and very limited shade. There is one little beach next to one of the oven lines pools that dogs can visit so we went there one night and it was lovely. The drive to assateague island is about 30 mins so we also spent a few hours in the evening to see the wild horses and set up on a quiet beach. Carnival rides and arcade on the boardwalk were a total hit! Overall the home itself was perfect for us it was spacious, Laura is lovely!

We enjoyed our brief stay. Laura, the host, was communicative and answered questions before and during our stay, and was generous to allow an early check in to accommodate our travels into town. The place was clean (though pup did quickly find a dog treat and Cheeto hiding in each sofa). The bathrooms are nice, clean, and updated. The bed in the master was extremely firm, so we had to adjust plans on bedrooms based on that, but it does have an adjustable frame which is helpful. The benefits of the Ocean Pines beach club parking pass are always appreciated to help with easy access to the beach just a few miles away, and the beach gear was a plus. We didn't visit the pools this time. The TV instructions weren't helpful to my husband, but we figured it out by signing into our own apps temporarily. Thankful to have a dog-friendly rental in OC that was available with our short notice. The house is on the main road going through Ocean Pines, but it was quiet inside the house. Thanks!

Don’t think twice about renting this lovely home. Owner has done a wonderful job making this home a five star rental. Have stayed in many rentals in the Pines better never slept as well. Mattress in the master bedroom was amazing. Plenty of room for my entire family to spread out. Beach parking was a great perk. Will be renting again soon for sure.

About the host

Hosted by Laura

Host profile image
It was always a dream to purchase a beach house but took a while to find the right one...this was finally the right one! This home was custom built and has great character! During the Pandemic, my husband and I spent time renovating it to bring the beach feel inside. It was no small task and we still have more to do! We have many projects to complete but we are tackling each project room by room during the off season. We hope to enjoy our retirement years in Ocean Pines but for now, we'll settle for a few weeks in the summer and renovation projects in the winter.

Why they chose this property

No other house looks like the Sea Salt Serenity! Strong brick bones and vaulted ceilings unlike any other rancher you know! This is not a builder grade home and built to last for years to come. We hope that your vacations with your families will be most memorable here and that your kids will always remember their time spent here in Ocean Pines, MD.

What makes this property unique

Close to everything yet far away to relax and enjoy the peaceful scenery that Ocean Pines has to offer. We are just minutes from beaches, pool, boardwalk, watersports, nightlife and family oriented activities. The home sits on the main parkway through Ocean Pines making it easy to access both Route 50 and Route 90 putting you right in the middle of it all. Whether you leave the community to enjoy Ocean City or stay in your home way from home, Ocean Pines has everything you can imagine so that you never have to leave. Kick back and relax or watch the sunrise or sunset over the bay!
