This property was great for our girls trip! The location is amazing with just a quick walk to the beach or any of the restaurants and coffee shops. Definitely reccomend.
The cottage was adorable with a lovely yard and convenient outdoor shower. Comfortable beds and nice bathrooms exceeded expectations. The location can’t be beat- right in the middle of everything but private as well. Looking forward to staying again.
I enjoyed my stay here. It was the right size and in a good location. The master bathroom was a nice surprise!!

The location is great. Close to the beach and restaurants. The house was very clean. It was a bit tight for the eight of us in the living room area, but overall a very nice stay.
Had a wonderful stay! The house was cute. Loved the fenced yard providing privacy. Good location and convenient to many things in Folly (pier, beach, stores and restaurants). The property manager was very responsive to all communications. Will definitely stay again!
Our vacation in Folly Beach was perfect for our family of 5. The house was beautiful, clean, and had everything we needed. We were able to walk to town and the beach. Lisa was incredibly responsive. We can't wait to visit again!

We would love for you to visit again, Jessica! Thank you for staying with us :) Come back soon!
So, we come to Folly yearly and this is one of our top picks for location. We were close to all the local dives and most importantly close to the pickleball courts. Beds were super comfortable and the the patio is area so fun for family hang out. Would rent again!
The house is the perfect location to where you can walk everywhere and it is near everything. The house is tucked away so you have your own privacy. The house is very clean and the rooms are big and spacious. Lisa was very helpful and accommodating.

Thank you for your review, Gabby! The two things you mentioned are our favorite things about the home, too - privacy and large bedrooms. We hope you'll come visit us again soon :)
If you’re searching for a place on Folly Beach, stop here! Super cute and cozy house. Comfy beds, awesome shower. Private fenced in yard. Walking distance to EVERYTHING! Just a block or 2 to the center of town and the beach.
From the start of arriving we loved the house and location. Couple house down from Center Street, around the corner from Berts and 2 blocks from the easy access beach. Parking is great and the yard set up was awesome since have children. Interior of the home was great for our family and we loved the layout and design. We would love the opportunity to stay here again.

Thank you so much for your review, Craig! We have kids, too, and love just letting them run free in the yard :) we would love to host you and your family again. Thanks for staying with us!
The property was just as described, close to the beach and within a short walking distance to what we needed. The only drawback was that we couldn't stay longer. Thank you Lisa for a fantastic trip!

Thank you, Donise, for your kind words! I'm so glad you enjoyed the home and location. We would love to host y'all again soon!
Great experience and vrbo for a girls weekend. Everything was very clean and nice for us. Convenient to walk everywhere. I will say the beds could have been a little more comfy and the lighting throughout the house was a bit dark due to not much natural light. but overall great place and weekend!
Lisa is a wonderful host who communicates pro-actively, thoughtfully, and kindly. The house is an oasis. Quiet and private but a short walk from everything. The outdoor space is lush and pretty with string lights, a grill, and dining and lounge seating. Care is taken to make you feel welcome and at-home. Thank you for an awesome stay :)
We had a wonderful time at this bungalow, so close to everything! The host was very flexible in letting us park at the house both before check-in and after checkout for some extra beach time. The kitchen seemed well equipped, but honestly we didn’t cook much since there are so many great restaurants within a 2 minute walk. The outside shower is great for getting the sand off after a long beach day. Never even turned on the TVs, even with two 4-year olds in tow - they preferred running around the enclosed courtyard/yard. Top notch experience!
Our stay at the Folly Boho Bungalow was absolutely perfect! The location is unbeatable—just a short 3-minute walk to the beach and steps from restaurants, shopping, and live music. We loved being able to park the car and walk everywhere. The fenced yard was great for our kids to play safely, and the porches were ideal for morning coffee and evening drinks.The home itself is thoughtfully set up with everything you need for a relaxing stay. The remote work desk was a great touch, and having Roku and cable in every room was perfect for winding down. The master closets were huge, and we easily fit our pack n’ play inside. You can tell the owners have really thought about comfort and convenience.This was the perfect beach getaway, and we can’t wait to come back.
This was perfect for our Folly Beach vacation. The house was very quaint and had a lot of charm. All the amenities were as advertised, and Lisa was a terrific, and responsive host.
