They have everything you need- from food, to toiletries, to clothes, to beach essentials!

PRO TIP:
If you’re staying at the Wharf during a concert weekend, beware of the busyness in the restaurants at dinner!
They do not offer ‘take-out’ orders for dinner when a concert is being performed that night.
The restaurants fill up fast, so either eat early, make reservations far in advance, or plan to cook in.
(it’s almost impossible to leave and get back inside the parking garage when a concert is happening)

If you walk to Yoho Tacos you will see the Oasis Bulletin; on it is the phone number to call for the trolley to pick you up. Be sure to ask the driver what time the trolley stops running in the evening so you don’t have to walk back! (Trolley availability varies by season)

Weekend stay
The marina view was amazing. The convenience to the shops, bars and restaurants was very nice
The property was in a great location. Especially if you enjoy listening to live music while having a couple of cocktails. The condo was nice and the view was amazing over looking the canal.
The condo was spacious, clean, & quiet with east access to everything! We enjoyed watching the boats from the deck, and the east walking to restaurants & entertainment, as well as the short 15 min drive to the beach! We will definitely be staying again!
We loved staying at the wharf for a quick weekend getaway for a concert. The condo was great, we could walk to the amphitheater, and plenty of shopping and dining below us. Our only complaints would be the master bed mattress is very uncomfortable and sometimes the music coming from bars or restaurants below was loud and you could hear it inside. Otherwise we had a great stay!
Greta place to stay if you’re in town for a concert at the wharf. It was close to lots of restaurants and shopping. Not a far drive to the state park entrance to the beach. The unit was very clean and comfortable to stay in. Huge deck on the back which was great for enjoying our morning coffee.
The condo was very clean and in a great location! So much to do and you never have to leave the property. Lots of great restaurants and places to have a fantastic time. Would stay there again for sure!
This condo is just perfect! There is plenty of room and has everything you need for your stay. If you are going to the Wharf Amphitheater, there's no more convenient place to stay...about a five minute walk. We were kept up to date with all the necessary information for our stay. And the view is incredible! I was mesmerized by the ships and boats going by! Don't pass up the opportunity to stay here! It's exceptional!
Stayed at the Wharf before and it's very convenient for going to the ballpark for baseball games. Come back, grab food and entertainment along with the Oasis swimming all in one spot. Room was nice, needs some minor things fixed and one small issue with the coaxial for the TV the property manager came.by and replaced it all in all the room was nice and comfortable, the AC was cold and the fans didn't squeak, lol. We would stay at again
We had a wonderful stay. You cannot beat the location of the condo. We are a family of 4 with two young boys and the convenience of just walking downstairs to grab dinner or ice cream was great. Communication was amazing. Every detail was spelled out before we got there. Absolutely loved the keyless entry. The condo was perfect for our family and hope to stay again. We went off season so this location was quiet at this time.
We had a wonderful time staying at this unit. We did have a few hiccups, but the property manager was quick to fix them! The only thing we saw that could be improved is that the outside wicker furniture is on its last leg and could use replacement. We were scared to used it because we thought it would break, but we know that happens with outside furniture over time. Over all a wonderful stay!!!
I frequently stay at the Wharf throughout the year and have always appreciated its vibrant atmosphere and well-appointed condos. However, my recent experience in this unit fell short due to the uncomfortable bed in the master bedroom. The springs were audible with every movement, and my spouse and I experienced back and shoulder pain each morning, which is unusual for us. Despite the convenience and ambiance, the discomfort from the bed significantly impacted our stay.
You are paying for the location. We were at the Wharf for a work trip so we did not spend a lot of time in the unit. Bed was hard, sheets were cheap and nasty carpet is disgusting. We extended our stay and the door code was changed on us. We ended up leaving and not using the extension we paid for. And were denied a refund for the night we did not use. I am sure the owner will fire back and threaten me like he did in the messages we had via VRBO. Just remember you are paying for the LOCATION and nothing more. View was nice...

Location is great!
The condo itself needs a makeover. The frying pans are old and really worn. The Bar-B Q on the balcony was dirty and the grille racks were all rusted and dirty, we didn’t even use it because of the shape it was in. The patio furniture was really worn down, not comfortable and the wicker is unraveling and falling apart. The main shower has some sort of seal issue and the water from the shower ran out on the door and would soak the floor. The towel we laid down as sopping wet after each shower. Cob webs on the walls in various areas of the unit. The twin beds were not comfortable and the bed frames squeaked with the slightest movements from our daughters. Overall the complex itself was fantastic. We traveled with a group of 6 families. If I were rating our unit vs the others, we were 6th. Seems that there are better options within the wharf based on our experience.
