Amazing stay!
We had an incredible family reunion over Labor Day. Beautiful house and location. Took the kayaks out and caught some crabs on the dock! The game room and theater rooms were a hit with our teens. Would definitely stay again!

Beautiful house in an excellent location!
We had a fantastic weekend celebrating with friends! 6 adults all fit comfortably in the house and had everything we needed. Being on the water was peaceful, no loud boats or jet skies. We would definitely stay here again!

Book it A Shore Thing is a sure thing
Fantastic views, super clean, well decorated with obvious thought put into the process. The management team was great. We made day trips into D.C., Baltimore for a baseball game, Annapolis, and Timonium for a horse auction. The afternoons and early evenings were perfect for relaxing on the balcony and enjoying the sunset. Convenient grocery stores if you need them, very good local restaurants. I highly recommend this property. It is among the best I have ever rented on VRBO. We had 6 adults in our party. Very spacious and all agreed the property was better than advertised. Travel times to the various places we visited were 30-45 minutes one way but that can stretch depending upon time of day and construction and security issued if you are going to D.C. I highly recommend this property and do plan to make a return trip.

The perfect home
The home and it's location were fantastic. Very clean and well-appointed. We enjoyed the layout and the space, and the view of the water was amazing in the Fall (kaledscope of colors)! Communication with the host was easy and prompt. Highly recommend and we will be back!

Great Experience
Driving through the relatively modest neighborhood before arriving at A Shore Thing was a bit misleading since once we arrived at the property it was everything that we were expecting. The outside of the house is handsome and the landscaping is beautiful. Inside the open first floor plan is spacious, bright, well-appointed with the large windows providing views from all over of the spectacular setting including beautiful sunsets. The basement offers another open area including a bedroom and a fabulous tv/movie viewing area with a huge hi-def tv. The second floor offers more open entertainment areas including a pool table, and the luxurious master suite with lovely water views and another bedroom. Aside from the master, the other bedrooms are modest, roomy enough but come with adjoining bathrooms which is a great feature. My biggest concern was the lack of a large neighborhood for a long walk without having to walk along the busy road for a block or so to get to where this was an extended neighborhood. However this is truly a wonderful place for a family gathering and we are planning on rebooking in the future.

Great place to enjoy friends!
Everything was as advertised and better!! Five college friends and sorors celebrated 50 years of devoted friendship during a four-day stay. We had a blast! There is enough space, amenities, and wonderful views to make any stay memorable. While there is not a lot of entertainment in the area, there were plenty restaurants with great food. An outlet mall is 15 minutes away and Ocean City beaches are are an 1.5 hour day trip away. Perfect location and lodging for a quiet, low-key getaway. I highly recommend!!!
