Summary: We rented Once Upon a Tide for the month of February to escape the winter doldrums of Maryland. Our daughter, son in law, and adolescent grandchildren joined us for a week and they loved collecting shells, using the pool table, and reading on the expansive deck. They were even able to witness a rocket launch, which was an added bonus! This home exceeded our expectations in every way. We have never stayed in a property so close to the beach and we so enjoyed drinking our coffee, relaxing, and socializing right at the water’s edge. The home is very well appointed and it is apparent that the owners take pride in anticipating every possible detail to make the renters’ stay very comfortable. Communication was seamless with the hosts and they provided recommendations inside the home for sightseeing, restaurants, and family activities. We certainly hope to return next year to Once Upon a Tide. If you decide to rent this property, you will not be disappointed!

Summary: When I was looking to book a place for a short stay, something special to accommodate myself, husband, and 2 daughters with their families, I saw Once Upon a Tide online and never looked back! The huge deck caught my eye immediately, and it is even larger 'in person'! There is abundant seating on the deck for large groups, and the colorful Adirondack chairs were my personal faves. The wall of windows facing the beach provides captivating ocean vistas, so even if you're inside, you don't loose out on that wild beauty. We had 6 adults and 6 kids ranging from ages14 to 2. The downstairs bedroom was perfect for the teenager, and the younger kids loved the bunkhouse. Bonus...all their toys stayed downstairs, out of sight from the main area. You walk up a flight of stairs to get to the main living area, which consists of a beautifully equipped kitchen, large dining table, comfortable living room and then the pool table with ping pong option it's own separate space. This area was a favorite of the guys in the group! The kids also liked the little TV room off the kitchen and enjoyed all the games and movies this room had to offer. The home is bountifully supplied with paper goods, beach towels, as well as other household linens and all the appliances you could need. The kitchen is well equipped, and you'll even find some basic seasonings and spices in the kitchen pantry. The master bedroom/bath is spectacular and the rest of the rooms are airy and spacious, with the cutest little 'baby bunk' area for the 2 year old. So many rooms, we had to remember which door was ours! Just beware, there are quite a few stairs to navigate in case anyone has knee issues. I did not realize that when booking and my hubby is a bit knee challenged. Once you are in the main level however, there is a bathroom and the little side room, so you wouldn't have to go up and down the two levels of stairs. We all really enjoyed our stay, and all the nooks and crannies we could hang out in. Thanks again for your hospitality!

Summary: We stayed at this house for my wife’s 40th birthday celebration. We had 8 adults and 6 children, which that was plenty of room and activities to keep everyone busy. The deck is massive and provides a great place to relax, entertain, and most importantly watch the kids from just a few steps down to the beach. Ron was available and responsive, while ensuring we had everything we needed to make our trip the very best. Definitely recommend and 5/5 stars!!!

Summary: This beautiful house and location were just as described in listing. But many extras as we discovered our new home for the week. We had a fantastic time with plenty of room for all. Other family came over multiple times to visit because it was so perfect. So sorry to leave, but can’t wait to go back. Thank you
