We really enjoyed our stay. We have never been to ocean pines. At the house, we enjoyed hanging out on the deck and enjoying the view, canoeing down the canal, close proximity to several pool options (with fee). There are bikes at the house and we biked to a Saturday market ( Amish friendship lemon bread is yummy). The swim and racquet club has tennis courts and basketball hoops. The yacht club has good food at a reasonable price. We used the parking pass for the beach at 49th street which was convenient. We ended up going to assateague for the beach. Kayaking at assateague was really beautiful. Highly recommend. It was a 20 to 30 min drive to the beaches but we didn’t mind.. There is also a fire pit which we didn’t get around to using. Ocean pines is a quiet area with trees and canals. It was nice to be in this environment after a day at the beach. Make sure you bring everything you need (toilet paper, trash bags, plastic wrap, shampoo, soap, etc.) at the house. We ended up making several trips to Walgreens or the market as we needed things. Definitely look forward to returning.
