Quick spring break

The location was perfect. Beautiful view of the river and short walk to the beach. All the amenities you could want to occupy 7 teenage girls. Close to the pier and all of the shops and restaurants on Folly. The girls have already asked to make this an annual trip.

Wonderful House!

The house and the property were lovely and just as described. Our family enjoyed the fire pit and the views from the back deck. The house was very clean and well equipped (kitchen, bathrooms, tvs, and games/puzzles). Our family had a great week on Folly in this house!

Family Reunion

We did not wish for anything. We had 9 adults and teens. Plenty of room for being together or being apart for some quiet time. Even with warm July temperatures we enjoyed sitting on deck with the umbrella raised for shade and watching the tide go in and out. We loved the bocce ball court and were very pleased with using the grill. Mostly we enjoyed walking to the beach. The downstairs hose and shower were handy for rinsing after the beach. The entire house is so cheerful and freshly painted. Love the natural light in the living area.

Great Experience!!

Our stay exceeded our expectations. Everything we neededwas there especially for the kitchen. The layout for the home was perfect for large groups. The backyard was great with the firepit. Nice size deck for outside dining. The pics used to advertise the property were on point. We were not disappointed. I recommend this place for large families/groups. I do not recommend it for persons who have difficulty navigating stairs.

Perfect for extended family visit

We live here in town & just wanted a place for all our friends & family to stay when they came for our daughter’s hs graduation. We rented for a week & had about 10 people in the house on most of the nights with extra beds. The multiple levels make it easy for those that want to go to bed early to do so w/o forcing the rest to have to quiet down too much. The kitchen was well appointed w/quality pots & pans & dishes. All the beds were comfy (twin mattresses could be a little softer, but fine for kids). The fire pit & grill were perfect. We will definitely book again if we need another beach house

Made Lots of Memories

We had a great trip! This house was perfect for our family group. The owners communicated with us and were very helpful during our entire stay. This is a large charming older cottage perfectly situated between the inner coastal waterway and the ocean with beautiful views of the sunset. The interior makes you feel as though you have stepped inside a coastal magazine. Thank you for allowing us to stay and make great memories!

Beautiful location

I booked this on a whim and was very pleased with the accommodations. Our group of five adults and two kids under 7 had plenty of space to spread out. The house is a short walk to the beach and a 20 min walk to downtown. We did not have luck catching crab at the crabbing dock, but did catch a few elsewhere. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend the house to anyone interested.

Liked main level living area & tv, other areas lacking

Our favorite spot was the main living area. Main floor TV good. Kitchen well equipped. Plenty clean towels & sheets. Liked having bikes, grill, games, etc. House could use a deep clean. Time for fixing wobbly lamps, changing light bulbs, repairing broken blinds, replacing loose register in Kitchen floor, dripping faucets, & dusting those fans. Never did get internet to work in 3rd floor bedroom.

Wish we could’ve stayed longer!

This is a great house for a large group. It has an above-average kitchen for a beach rental, lots of games, comfy beds, nice TVs and is a quick walk to the beach. Bring bug spray because the mosquitoes are intense, especially under the house where the outdoor shower is. Overall, we had a great week at About Time and were sad to leave.

Perfect location and quiet

Great overall experience! Place was overall generally clean for a beach house. Beds were comfy and ample seating in the main living space! Great walk to the beach, the pathway was so beautiful to the beach we took pictures!! Went for my bachelorette weekend and it was a great low key place, that we could relax. The only thing is that the “queen” bed downstairs didn’t not seem like a queen but more of a full bed but it was still really comfortable!!

Excellent location, fun gathering space!

We had the best time! The location is perfect! A short walk to a quiet, beautiful beach, a short drive into a quaint town and a private, cute, home with a deck to watch the sunset. We were up every morning to catch the beach sunrise. We were able to gather at the large table for games and food. It was a perfect home for our large family to do various and different activities. The king beds were so comfortable but there were some twin beds that weren’t as nice. We had younger kids on them so it still worked. I highly recommend this space!

Great place to unwind!

Well stocked kitchen. Nice decor. Clean linen. Beach chairs and umbrellas were available for use. Great location with super easy access to the beach. Plenty of books and board games for entertainment. Checkin was easy. We got access two hours ahead of checkin time. This was helpful because we were working that day. The rental company staff were considerate and friendly. We enjoyed our stay here and hope to come back. The master bedroom upstairs needs a blackout curtain, especially during the summer months when the sun rises early and light streams in as early as 5.30am!! Better shower with a firm door in the master bathroom will be a plus.
