I would suggest an update for the WiFi password, a checklist list so we don’t have to interrupt the homeowners and the bathroom and bedroom doors needs a spray of WD-40.It was all enjoyable.Thank you

This is a great little cottage for a trip to folly! Sooooo close to everything! I live in Charleston but we wanted to be close to the action for 4th of July and it was so worth it! We only had 3 people and it was a great size. It would have been a tight squeeze with 6 and the bedrooms are tiny so not much space for storage but for a weekend for 3 it’s perfect!

Location was excellent & property was what I would expect from an older surf shack style beach home. Furniture & beds were clean & comfortable. House could use some maintenance but nothing I wouldn’t expect from an older home & everything was in working order. Washer could use a deep clean as it did have significant mold in dispenser & around drum seals on the door. Common problem with front loaders washers being left closed before drying out. I cleaned the dispenser, wiped down the seal & ran a machine cleaner through a cycle & it was usable. Outdoor shower was nice for rinsing off after the beach, a couple more pavers under it would be nice to give a larger area to stand & help alleviate it creating a muddy area. Enjoyed the screen porch very much & proximity to beach & main drag of town couldn’t be beat. Hosts were great & easy to work with & keyless entry was great.,

Excellent location. Really appreciated the extra beach chairs and sand toys. There’s very little cabinet space, but with Bert’s Nextdoor, we didn’t need to stock up on much.
