Beautiful “white-glove” clean property with A1 proximity to the beach & all things Folly. Didn’t need to drive for any reason. Designated parking for 2 cars gets this spot an A rating. Very responsive & accommodating host. We booked an additional night with no problem. Absolutely wonderful stay! Please NOTE: You must be able to climb stairs without difficulty. Bring your own beach towels.

Great beach cabin

We really enjoyed our stay here and had our 5-month old daughter with us as well. The cabin is super clean and was plenty of space for us. We appreciated that the kitchen was well stocked as we were cooking a lot. Communication and check-in was easy, and the walk to the beach is right down the path outside ~5 minutes. We'd definitely stay here again. Don't forget to go to Burts!

Wonderful house! Couldn’t have been more clean!

Our stay was awesome! The house is will apportioned and was so clean! The mattresses were pretty comfortable and there were plenty of comfortable pillows. The neighbors were a bit loud, some yelling in the street every night but it was spring break around there. The owners couldn’t have helped that. Lovely house and great beach!

Great decor, clean, roomy & bright

Appreciated the light switches being labeled, loved the artwork, and enjoyed walking everywhere with good restaurants only steps away. Had difficulty finding the address, lockbox and code, and was criticized by an older woman in one of the units. Thank goodness the housekeeper was there - she helped me get in, showed how the thermostat works (tricky), how to raise the blinds and turn the TV on and locate channels. Very helpful!

This house is in an amazing location. Just a few houses away from Center Street and a couple of streets to the beach. There was parking for 2 cars and the house is beautifully decorated and immaculate. This was our third trip to Folly Beach and we would definitely look to rent this house again.

Spring Break

We enjoyed our stay at Folly Beach! The location was great for walking to the beach, pier, and restaurants. Also, the location was convenient to visiting downtown Charleston, which we did! Just remember to time your return trip from Charleston to not coincide with travelers getting to their beach destinations.

Fun times in Folly!

I traveled with my two daughters to Folly and we had an amazing time! The unit was extremely clean, well-stocked, and perfect for our get-away. We were close to enjoy all of downtown Charleston but enjoyed coming back to the laid back beach vibe of Folly. We would highly recommend!!

Great little property, just one catch

Nice property, very clean. Location is just about as good as you could ask for. We gave 4 stars because the property manager is a tad overbearing. She sent us several very long, overly detailed messages before, and even daily during our stay, making sure we did certain things. Not exactly conducive to a vacation. Other than that, we enjoyed staying here.
