7 Min Walk to the Best Access Point on the Beach! Enjoy Incredible Views from the Solarium.

Love the beach but want to get away from it all, too? You will love Mermaid's Folly, which is a short walk from the beach and provides a quiet & peaceful retreat within the sun-drenched, bird-filled woods. Located on a low traffic street in a tree-filled residential neighborhood, this house provides its guests close proximity to the beach and Folly Beach's restaurant row on Center Street without all the congestion and noise that you'll find on the busier streets of the island. Guests of Mermaid's Folly can take a leisurely walk to the best public access point (fully equipped with its own bath house & rest room!) on Folly Beach and have their toes in the sand within 7 minutes of leaving the front door. At the end of the day, you can return home to enjoy sundowner cocktails on one of the home's three elevated porches that overlook the marsh or drive to downtown Charleston to enjoy the fabulous foodie & cultural delights of what readers of Southern Living magazine voted as the "Best City in the South" of 2017.

Seven women cousins from five states/seven cities spent four nights/five days here in Oct. while a tropical weather system stalled in the Atlantic and brought rain every day. Thankfully, we all get along and the house was amazing. Very clean! Kitchen was well-equipped for cooking. Beds comfortable. Games and books were available for us to use. Folly Beach is a wonderful beach and and a quaint town-We just did not get to experience much of it during this stay. If we could have gotten to the beach during typical Oct. weather in SC, the wagon, beach chairs, beach towels, and other extras provided would have been great. Highly recommend!

This is a very nice property with a "nature center" feel backyard. All of the decor is nicely themed and the whole place is very comfortable.We appreciated the "starter" laundry/dish detergent, shampoo, etc. .There are plenty of dishes, cups, cooking utensils, and the like for the party size this house can accommodate, which we don't always find to be true.A big shout-out to the property owners for excellent communication leading up to the rental, and during the stay.

A cozy and great place with a nice beach vipe. Has everything you would need to feel at home and sleep, wash up and eat Do bring a wagon though to get your stuff to the beach. It's a short walk, but water, snacks, toys, seats and towels add up.

Fabulous Folly

We loved our stay at Mermaid folly. Walking to beach on paths was so easy. We brought our own chairs and beach towels because we only live 30 miles away but didn’t need to. There were plenty of chairs, towels and booger boards to use. The home is perfect and comfortable with everyone getting their own rooms. We had NO issues and the hosts are super! We look forward to renting in the future. Kitchen had everything we needed. Highly recommend.

We have been to other parts of South Carolina before but have found Folly Beach as our new favorite beach! Mermaid's Folly was so clean and furnished beautifully, the neighborhood was quiet and in great proximity to the beach and downtown. It was also so close to Charleston. We are already talking about visiting again!

Clean, Comfortable Charleston Charm

We lived in Charleston for many years before work moved us to the upstate. It was so wonderful to stay at Mermaid’s Folly and feel like we were right back home! The home is beautiful and well appointed with anything to make your stay comfortable! We loved that it’s tucked back off the main roadway but still close enough ito take a short walk to the beach or the stores and restaurants. Everything is well maintained and clean. I can be a bit OCD with cleanliness but I didn’t have to worry here at all! We so appreciated the environment they’ve created here! Comfortable, clean, inviting, laid-back and beyond charming! Thank yall for a fantastic rental!

Perfect place for family!!!

We brought out 4 teenagers to see charleston and spend time at the beach. House was perfect for our trip! Great location! We did sight seeing in the morning and then beach time when we got back. House was well equipped - good kitchen set up, beach towels were provided and lots of games & books at night. Walkable to loggerheads restaurant for easy dinner. Parking on folly beach is difficult so it’s a real perk that this house is walkable to the Main Street and the beach. Would definitely go back again! Thanks for a wonderful vacation!
