Ocean City Vacation Rentals

Wedged between the Atlantic Ocean and the Chesapeake Bay, vibrant Ocean City offers a ten-mile stretch of coastline anchored by a world-famous three-mile Boardwalk. This All American City has earned a reputation as "The East Coast's Number One Family Resort," and it's not hard to see why. From its humble origins as a quiet fishing village, Ocean City has become a mecca for generations of families who make it an annual tradition to play, relax, and revel in making new memories to last a lifetime.

For many, owning an Ocean City vacation rental property is a perfect way to continue that tradition. And you can rest assured that that tradition will be here in the years to come, thanks to the progressive planning of Ocean City officials. Since 2002, the city has been committed to an ongoing, multi-million dollar beach restoration program - that makes getting an Ocean City vacation rental home a wise investment in the future. And if owning an Ocean City vacation property is not in your budget, consider the vast array of Ocean City vacation rentals. Spend the weekend, a week, or even the whole summer at an Ocean City beach rental. There are plenty of options to choose from!

Without a doubt, the renowned Boardwalk is a major reason why Ocean City vacation rentals remain packed throughout the summer months. With everything from shops and restaurants to arcades and amusement parks, the Boardwalk is unrivaled as Ocean City's main entertainment district. It's even been ranked the third best boardwalk in the nation.

And it's not just the Ocean City vacation rentals that are packed. So is the city's annual calendar of events, which offers everything from family-friendly fare to late-night entertainment. Highlights include:

Springfest: Residents and visitors alike enjoy free admission to four fun-filled days of entertainment, arts & crafts, and food.
The OC Air Show
4th of July Jamboree in the Park
Sunfest: This popular event was ranked the fifth best contemporary arts & crafts show in the country.
Sundaes in the Park: Ice cream sundaes and live music make this weekly gathering fun for the whole family.
Free Weekly Beach Concerts
Evening Beach Bonfires
Octoberfest

With all this and more, it's easy to see why Ocean City vacation rentals are so popular!

Many beach towns shut down in the cooler months. Not Ocean City! With a year-round population of more than 8,000, the city remains active throughout the fall and winter, making an Ocean City vacation property an ideal get-away.

There's always something to do, including:

Shopping: From antiques to outlets, Ocean City is a shopper's paradise.
Eating: Forget that diet - you're on vacation! Stop for a bite to eat at some of Ocean City's most famous landmarks, like Fisher's famous Caramel Popcorn, Thrashers French Fries, and Dollies Salt Water Taffy & Candy Kitchen.
Exploring: Catch sight of dolphins and whales on an eco-friendly cruise or take a walking tour of the city's historic district. For the more adventurous, Assateague Island is just 9 miles away and offers camping, boating, fishing, and - of course - the world-famous wild ponies.
Golfing: Ocean City has more than 17 championship golf courses, including Eagle's Landing, one of the nation's top ten municipal golf courses. It also hosts the annual Ocean City Celebrity Golf Classic.
Fishing: Known as the "White Marlin Capital of the World," bay and deep sea fishing is one of Ocean City 's most popular activities.
Relaxing: Despite its many attractions, Ocean City's main appeal is its ten luxurious miles of white sand beaches. What better way to spend the day than with your feet up, listening to the relaxing sound of the ocean from the balcony or patio of your Ocean City beach rental?

One of the best things about renting or owning an Ocean City vacation property is how accessible it is. Thanks to the completion of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel in 1964, Ocean City's sandy beaches now are just a short drive from many major East Coast cities. And nearby Wicomico Regional Airport makes getting to your Ocean City vacation rental by air just as easy.

When you get home, hold a shell to your ear . . . the sound of the beach is already calling you back. So make your next vacation rental or purchase an Ocean City vacation home - our rental coordinators are here to assist you. Long & Foster is Your Link to the Beach®.
