Whimsy Waterfront

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

If you're itching for a special vacation, look no further than Ocean Pines! Launch your kayaks and paddleboards from the dock, or take an easy stroll to the Ocean Pines Golf Club or Yacht Club. You'll have plenty of community amenities right at your fingertips, including pools (for a fee), basketball courts, bike trails, a boat ramp, a library, a community center, a playground, and a spacious picnic area - to name just a few!

You'll be within driving distance of some incredible attractions, from the beaches of Ocean City to the go-karts at Baja Amusements. Paradise Watersports awaits you less than ten miles out, where you can rent a jet ski and sail at high speeds against a beautiful city backdrop.

Back at home, you'll be in awe of the family area equipped with a fireplace for warming up on chilly coastal evenings. Step into the kitchen and whip up something delectable with your friends, then gather around the large dining room table and feast to your heart's content. From the wall decor to the knickknacks hanging atop the doors, the quaint nature of the property will have you feeling right at home.

Head out to the backyard through the sliding doors, past the comfy couch (perfect for reading a good book with a good view), and settle in on the patio with some drinks in hand. As the night comes to a close, come back inside and gather around the living area and stream your favorite flick. There's something for everyone at this serene vacation spot!

Perfect Little Getaway

The home was amazing. We loved the cute decor and the outdoor patio facing the water was lovely. The place was very clean and inviting and best of all the master bed was comfy which I find to be a very rare thing with rentals. We definitely recommend anyone who wants a nice quiet getaway close to ocean city but not in the city center, to come and check this place out!

Convenient location…

On a canal so you can enjoy kayaking or boating. Within walking distance to the Golf & Country club and very close to the Yacht Club both with good restaurants and bar.

House was a home away from home.

Definitely a relaxing home to just enjoy. Beautiful view. Pretty much had everything needed. Would love the property more if they accommodated times better like other booking services. Other than that beautiful home and neighborhood.

Relaxing

It was very nice. My only disappointment was that the fireplace did not work. It was cool and it was fall and I felt it should have worked. The mattress on the king bed was very comfortable. I enjoyed the screened in porch.

Enjoyed our week!

Had a great time at Whimsey Waterfront. House is clean, in great shape, well appointed. It was the perfect size for my wife, myself and our dog. Quiet neighborhood. Enclosed and open porches out back for sipping coffee in the morning or watching the sun set over the lagoon. A lot of personal decorating choices and artwork that said "I'm at the beach" and made for a fun vacation. Thanks!

Great temporary home

I booked this place with my boys to help as a second kitchen for a family gathering. The house was great, the kitchen was surprisingly well stocked. The property is great, and I've been coming to Ocean Pines for over 30 years, so I definitely loved the community

Awesome location..only one downside

Beautiful property, great location and amenities. Only thing that was disappointing was that the umbrella for the patio table is not supplied, so be sure to bring your own if you want to enjoy the awesome backyard but don't want to sit directly in the sun.

Great week in Ocean Pines

We had a great week with my Daughter and son in law and our Sweet golden retriever “Gracie” at this very nice house The house was well equipped with everything you needed and such a relaxing location in Ocean Pines It is so easy getting in and out of Ocean City and plenty of great food places near by. I love spending time in OceanDowns Casino trying to get lucky with a big win Thank you for a Great week I just wish it didn’t go by so fast

Deceived

The place was not what vacasa property management claims it was, things inside the home were broken, the fireplace did not work, the pictures are not accurate, there is no picnic table, the dock floats, its not very safe for children or seniors! But my biggest issymue, is that when vacasa askedd me for a review, they refused to post it, they cherry pick the reviews, so people think properties are better than they are. And when i reached out to them, they had something different answer my email, saying they cant see my last email and kept asking for the same info, that went on for days, i kept all the emails, i would never use this company.

Family of 4 adults

The house was just like the listing and on the whole it was very clean. I did not like the 4:00 check in as we were all coming from different states it seemed too late and we were waiting in cars. The master carpet is absolutely filthy it was so dirty that I would not allow my bare feet to touch it. The little couch in the master also very very dirty. I also think it should be mentioned how high up the bed was. My husband has a bad back and he could not get up in the bed. This bed was about 4 feet up in the air. This should be mentioned in the listing. The master bedroom door would not close so everyone could look in and in the morning woken up by whomever woke first. Overall good location, well stocked kitchen , and generally clean except for the above mentioned.
