***New Living Room Couch 2025***
***New Nectar Mattresses for summer 2021***

Superb location at 870 Third Street, 1st Floor unit. We are located on a quiet beach block on the north end. Custom built to blend the old and the new. Gorgeous white cabinets and hardwood floors. Bright and airy. You'll never want to leave! It is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath unit with off-street parking.

Start your day with a walk along the boardwalk, stop for some coffee and fresh baked cake donuts at Browns. Enjoy an easy walk to the beach, come back to the house and rinse off in the outdoor shower and enjoy the evening on the large front porch. It's perfect for talking, eating and just relaxing. Everything is in walking distance to our house - boardwalk, playgrounds, tennis courts, and shops. You really can't find a better location or place to take your vacation this summer!

5 minute walk to the beach
15 minute walk to the boardwalk activities

the house is nice. the living room furniture and master bedroom bed should be taken to the dump. be careful the ice machine jambs and may not shut off. bring your own sharp knives and floor mat for when you exit the tub and shower

Great Vacation!
This house was the perfect size for us, 6 adults and one 6 year old. We appreciated the double vanities in each bathroom. The kitchen was well stocked. I did bring my own paper towels, toilet paper, dish cloth and dish towel. We did run out of garbage bags so I had to buy some. We aren’t fans of the foam mattresses, but that’s obviously a personal preference. I would suggest room darkening curtains in all the bedrooms (the primary has them). Or bring some temporary ones if you are a light sleeper. The porch was awesome. The neighborhood was super quiet. We would definitely rent here again! Thank you for having us.

Outstanding week in Ocean City
The house was perfect for our group of 4 adults and a toddler. Very clean and well equipped. It was great to have beach chairs for us and beach toys for our granddaughter. Just a short walk to the beach! We ate nearly all our meals on the front porch. Garage parking was a real plus. We highly recommend this house!

Great Beach Week
Loved our stay at this property. House was super clean, decor was lovely and liked the overall layout (nice that the rooms were up a couple steps and in the back so never heard people stirring). Loved the location - super close to the beach so easy to hop back for lunch. Great for the kids (and adults 😃) to walk/bike to the boards, get ice cream, go to town, tennis courts, coffee shop/restaurants, ect… Overall the house was well equipped (games, puzzles, and most kitchen stuff, plus with kcup and drip coffee maker. And a really nice touch they have beach tags! A couple of things to note; there’s no grill (we brought a portable, but neighbors are so nice we used theirs), glassware is sparse (there’s plastic cups, but only 4 wine glasses and no other real glassware - we’re cocktail people so like a nice rocks glass, tumbler, ect. We used the jelly jar in the glass cabinet 😂. A non-stick pan and a large pot (large enough for awesome Jersey corn and steaming clams) would be good additions for the kitchen. Also, mattress are nice new memory foam, very comfortable, but it’s memory foam pillows too. We always bring our own pillows so no big deal for us). Only point these things out to help packing. I’d definitely rent here and hope to come back next year!

Spectacular
Perfectly located, clean, bright and still has that new house smell! Melissa is super responsive to any need, no matter how small. This is our 2nd time renting and they continue to make small upgrades which helps keep the property as a top tier rental. We will definitely rent again!

Perfect little beach house
This was a great house for our family! Location made it easy to walk to the beach and to the boardwalk shops, but the area was quiet and away from the commercial traffic and noise. The big front porch was a lovely place to read books and eat our meals. House was clean and comfortable and we really appreciated the garage shower after coming home from the beach. Thanks for an enjoyable stay in OC!

Wonderful week at the beach
This is the second time we've stayed in this property, and we were again very pleased with it. It was very, very clean! The kitchen was better stocked with utensils, tupperware, etc, then other rentals we've stayed in. The owners were also very responsive to all questions we had. Would highly recommend!

Excellent shore house
Went for a long weekend in May with my family. We’ve rented in OCNJ every summer for my entire life, and this house has some of the highest end finishes we’ve seen. Nice layout, modern, and comfortable. No cleanliness issues whatsoever. Host was communicative and proactively let us know about some maintenance people stopping by. Great selection of games and activities for a rainy day.

Charming beach getaway, steps from the boardwalk
We are a family of five, with three small kids. This was the perfect, and perfectly convenient spot for a quiet Spring Break getaway. Pros: Steps from the boardwalk / beach, open floor plan with spacious living and kitchen/dining areas, beautiful front porch for gathering and relaxing, and lots of garage space to stash surfboards and beach gear. Coffee and ice cream are right around the corner. Things to note (esp. if traveling with kids): Minimal / sheer coverage on the upstairs bedroom and bathroom windows, high barstool seating around the kitchen table, and this listing is bring-your-own towels / linens. We look forward to booking a future stay!

Fantastic week
Couldn’t have been happier with our stay. The property was very nice, clean, spacious and in a great location with easy access to the beach and boardwalk but also on a quieter street. There was always something to do for both the adults and kids. We really enjoyed spending time on the front porch as well. Owners were very nice to work with. Highly recommend.

Wonderful house and location
This is our second year in a row renting this house. We couldn’t be more pleased. Location is great for us, a few steps to the beach and Boardwalk yet far enough from all the noise. House is very clean upon arrival w/ all the amenities we needed. Our family is looking forward to future trips rent this house.

Perfect location
We have been vacationing in OC for over 20 years and this was one of our favorite rentals, perfect for our group of 6. This location is a short walk to the beach and boardwalk, very convenient. I love that you have two parking spaces in the garage/driveway which is a huge benefit in this busy area with limited street parking. The front porch, kitchen, and living room were ver comfortable and suited our needs perfectly. One minor downfall was the 2nd queen bedroom box spring was broken, causing a slight middle dip in the mattress which should be replaced. The queen bed in the master bedroom was super comfortable. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone looking to vacation at OC, NJ.

About the host

Hosted by Melissa Murray Bailey

Host profile image
We bought the lovely old house that used to sit on this property in 2009 with my parents John and Diane. We've always wanted a house in Ocean City. My grandparents and aunt and uncle live on the island year round. Growing up right off the island, we spent a lot of time on the beach.

Unfortunately, the house succumbed to the tides in Super Storm Sandy and we had to tear down the house. We were devastated. We loved the charm of the old house. So, we worked very closely with the architect to make sure we were able to design a new house that was still full of the character of the old house.

The 2nd floor is not rented out, our family uses it. We look forward to welcoming you and getting to know you!

Best,
Melissa
