Ocean Pines and Surrounding Maryland Resort Areas

Ocean Pines is a unique, carefully planned waterfront community nestled among pine tress on 3,500 acres of former farm and wooded land located just 8 miles from the beaches of Ocean City, MD. Since opening on July 12th, 1968, the development that began as a summer retreat for retirees now offers a diversity of lifestyle options for all ages. These range from starter homes, condominiums, town homes and age-restricted communities, all the way up to million dollar estates. Golf, tennis, swimming pools, paddleball, nature trails, dining and marinas are among the many amenities offered to residents. The community hosts holiday, family and special events throughout the year. Ocean Pines maintains its own professional police, fire and public works departments. The area continues to attract and support reputable businesses that positively contribute to the economic health and well being of this fine community.

Ocean City, Marylands most famous resort, is 8 miles away- close enough to enjoy when you want some beach time, but far enough away to avoid the crowds when you prefer a peaceful environment. The historic towns of Berlin, Crisfield, Pocomoke, Salisbury and Snow Hill are nearby, offering entertaining tours of their quaint towns while learning a bit of our nations history. Crabbing, fishing, state parks, canoeing, hunting, shopping and cultural events await the visitor. Overall, enhance your life style by living in Ocean Pines and add to your enjoyment by exploring the surrounding areas.
