We came here as a group of 6 for a bachelorette/girls weekend, and this home couldn't have been a better choice. It's right on the beach, which is super convenient for spending the day there, but also the walkway/boardwalk and screened in porch made morning coffee and evening cocktails so awesome. The location is only a 20 min walk into town, but we rented a golf cart for convenience and I'd highly recommend it (or bikes). The host was easily reachable, and they were very accommodating about checking in early as well. Their office is right on the main road in downtown Folly, and the staff there were also accommodating when we needed a place to drop our bags for a little while while we were waiting for a late flight. We'd love to come back and would highly recommend this spot!

The best place for a fun and relaxing week or weekend away with family/friends. Stunning views and loved having access to the beach right from the house. Downtown Folly Beach was only a few minutes away with great options and fun places to checkout. Can’t wait to come back!

This beachfront home was perfect for a long weekend! It was just my husband and I and our son, who was there to tour the College of Charleston. He loves to fish - so he had the pier nearby. The home was just perfect - very clean and well appointed. The kitchen had wonderful dishes and plenty of cookware. With great restaurants nearby and a cute little grocery called Bert's we didn't use the kitchen much but if we needed to, we would have been set. The house was very cozy and the view could not be beat. Perfect!

Fantastic! The house was perfect. Walking distance to Center Street. No complaints about anything! The bedrooms.. kitchen..living room..screened porch.. walkway to the beach.. outside showers.. the ocean, oh, yes. Did I mention the ocean? Perfect.. We had a problem on the first day (the power went out in part of the house) but we called and it was taken care of right away! Can't ask for faster service than that!We have family in Charleston so had a grand harbor tour and dockside dinner...a day at the Market and shopping downtown. Ready to do it again!

Amazing place

This place was amazing. The beautiful oceanfront location, close to an amazing beach town, the home felt so comfy. Plenty of dishes and cooking utensils. Two fridges which was awesome for a big family. Plenty of parking. Property management was on top of things. The grill - only one burner was working they had a new grill to us within an hour. Everything was clean. Lots of beds and room. If you are thinking about this place - just do it!! The back patio is great and where we spent most of our time. Water in the shower was always hot even with lots of people taking showers. We will be back and I fell on love with this area and this house.
