Looking for your best vacation rental opportunity? Look right here.

TripAdvisor, a travel information company that regularly publishes "best" or "top ten" lists of travel-related features and services, has just named Ocean City first on its list of 12 "Top Trending Spots for a Summer 2017 Vacation Rental Stay.”

TripAdvisor had previously named the resort 10th in its list of the top 25 beaches in the United States.

Citing "its family-friendly activities and an old-timey boardwalk packed with shops and restaurants," TripAdvisor tapped Liquid Assets, Jolly Roger and the Boardwalk as attractions not to be missed.

Other locations in the list include Panama City, Kissimmee and Orlando, Florida; Myrtle Beach, South Carolina; Virginia Beach, Virginia; and Hilton Head, South Carolina.

"We analyzed the overall vacation rental interest for a stay taking place between June-August of this year, and found that the cities featured here are getting the most attention from travelers in 2017," said TripAdvisor spokesperson Ashlee Centrella in a press release.

The Boardwalk in Ocean City bustles at night with people moving about and performers entertaining passersby.
