This is a charming (a bit "funky") property. Exactly the kind of place I love for a beach stay. Loads of character and thoughtful touches like free sunscreen, beach towels to borrow, etc. Check in was easy and staff personable and attentive. Very short walk to the beach and even shorter to Center Street restaurants and shops. Will definately stay here again when at Folly.

Everything about our stay was quite cozy. Miss Joyce was a delight and incredibly welcoming. We stayed in one of five rooms in the cottage and there was a common area for breakfast where you can mingle with others or take your breakfast back to your room. Just about everything is within walking distance. We will be visiting again!

This place is truly a hidden gem. It’s our second year visiting, and we love it just as much as the first time. The staff is wonderful, and the whole atmosphere feels like home. I do miss the bikes they used to have, though.

Such an adorable place to stay! Wish we had more time but we could only stay one night but already know we will be back in the near future. The location could not be more perfect. The breakfast area and food served was nice, felt like being in someone's home. And the bed was soo comfy! And the double shower! We loved it.

This property was the absolute cutest! The staff was amazing and the have a kitchen with access and had cookies out and popcorn and access to ice and water. Towels and chairs for the beach. Not on the beach but very easy walkable access to Folly’s. Lots to do very close by. Parking was easy enough on the street. Highly recommend because the staff was so awesome as were the amenities of the kitchen
