    A quick getaway for my wife and I along with our dog. The house suited our needs and the views were great. Having a personal beach access was nice too.

    We loved everything about our stay. The house is exactly as it was described online, but even better. Huge porch overlooking the most beautiful beach. The house was beautifully appointed and had everything we needed. Very spacious and convenient to town too. We had an issue with dishwasher and property manager was at house within 5 minutes to fix. Highly recommend this house and Folly Beach!

    My family came to explore Charleston. We didn't. We couldn't break away from this wonderful beach front home.

    Folly is one of my favorite places and this house set up and location made it so convenient, relaxing, and comfortable and the view from the deck is perfect! Very short walk to the shops and restaurants as well!

    The house, the location and the booking/checkin process are perfect. The house works great for a small group. Direct beach access is a treat that includes amazing views and the sounds of the ocean on the deck. This is a great house and yard for the dogs. It’s clean and has everything we needed. Downtown is a few blocks away and very walkable. I had a few questions prior to checkin and all were answered quickly and thoroughly. My only hesitation booking again is due to the city of Folly. We’ve had many Christmases on Folly but this year the police presence was disturbing. Do not go one mile over the speed limit. The speed traps are unreal. They sit at the city limit and pick off drivers who don’t stomp on the brakes where the speed limit drops to 25. Then, they sit downtown and pick you up for anything. We got 2 warnings within a week. One speed and one for not having headlights on for about 20 seconds after pulling out of a parking space. Two police cars were needed for that! We watched them pull over car after car while we were eating dinner one night. But, they must overlook the drug dealers who are working in the souvenirs shops. Two in our group were offered weed from the cashiers. Sadly, Folly is changing.

    Location is incredible!!! House was wonderful for our small family including a 3 year old and 2 year old. Had plenty of space and then some! Porch railing a little sketchy for our 2 year old but we just monitored him constantly when out there. The outdoor space and huge windows were so lovely- what a view!!! Enjoyed our stay so much and can’t wait to book again soon!
