Serene and peaceful 10 days on Folly
Tucked away on a quiet street, a three minute walk to the beach with views of an expansive marsh and waterways to the west, this is a wonderful place to enjoy the natural beauty of Folly Island. My friend and I enjoyed cooking in the well-equipped kitchen and shared meals on the screened porch to while listening to bird song, and watching for egrets, herons and the occasional pelican. Most evenings we would walk a short block to view the spectacular sunsets and then return to the property to watch the setting sun transform the marsh. The house is lovely and comfortable without being fussy. We didn't realize that Folly would be transformed by crowds over the Easter holidays, so we were especially glad to be in a quiet neighborhood a few miles from the traffic and crowds. The one challenge was arriving at night - like many houses on the island, the living space is on the second and third floor. The spiral steps in front made carrying up our suitcases and bags a little daunting. If we have the opportunity to return, I would plan to arrive during the day and carry bags up the back steps which are much easier to maneuver.
