    The rain certainly had its fun with us during our stay; the birdwatching was incredible, and the location of the home was great.

    We have stayed in a few places on folly over the past 10 years and this one is our favorite! We spent the mornings watching the dolphins, the afternoons on the beach and evenings were spent fishing. We would definitely book this house again!

    We had a great time, we enjoyed fishing from the Dock. We put our kayaks in. The boys loved the ocean. We ate to much.Overall we had a great time. Just a couple of changes that could be made.. the house was very hot at night. We all had a hard time sleeping, you didn’t need any of the covers. We were sweating. Only bedroom that was cool was the loft. The bathrooms also needs doors for more privacy. The hall bath needs a door added back to the hall, so that couple has more privacy. A tv also needs to be added to the guest bedroom. Beautiful home and we will come back. We love Folly Beach.

    Overall I thought this was a lovely property. The views of Folly River and the Morris Island light house make this property exceptional, but other features such as a great kitchen, beautiful master suite and super fun game room make this a perfect house for a family or small group of friends. The house is very private and a short walk to the beach. Would rent again!

    Absolutely stunning property with water views and private dock. House is generously proportioned with comfortable common areas and lovely bedrooms. Fully fenced yard was excellent for dogs. Beach is a short walk and dining/shopping a quick drive down the road. We loved our first time visiting folly beach. Property owner was responsive and helpful. Wonderful rental. Highly recommend.

    What a great property! Beautiful views, convenient location to the 13th street beach access. Quiet location and loved the fenced in yard for our dog! We utilized the dock to view gorgeous sunsets and to paddle board. Game room was a plus and we used it often. The beds were comfortable and kitchen fully stocked. A well appointed house with a quirky/beachy/coastal feel. We would rent here again for sure!

    We loved our week here. We are avid birders and the best birding on the island was right from the dock. The house is lovely and has everything for a comfortable stay.

    Our group enjoyed all the areas of the house, playing pool and games together. It was a great dock with fishing fun every evening and abundant new fish tales! My grandsons caught their first fish! The dolphins were there every day. It was a short shady walk to the beach! If you are looking for great fun, rent this house, and make your own memories!
