Place was adorable and super clean. Very conveniently close to the beach and Folly restaurants. Only suggestion is someone needs to trim the bushes to the entry way. Otherwise wonderful. Would come back.

What a beautiful property within a short walk to the beach! The home was clean and comfortable, everything we needed. Communication with the owner was excellent! The front porch was a highlight, listening to the ocean and birds while sipping coffee! Highly recommended! And looking forward to returning!

We loved our stay at Folly Beach. The cottage was just as described and included everything you could need. The host, Francisca, communicated regularly and was extremely helpful. The cottage was perfect for our trip, providing a quiet and welcoming place to stay and just a block from the beach. We hope to return again!!

Such a perfectly clean, quaint, full-of-character cottage! We loved all the renovations, great kitchen, nice living room, bedrooms, bathrooms, lots of windows, terrific outdoor space including campfire, furniture, shower, and front porch! Only complaint would be squeaky springs when just rolling over in bed. And extra pillows and blankets would’ve gotten used. Really LOVED our 5 days there. Would recommend to others and hopefully we can return someday, too!

This is a classy property that has been remodeled and maintained with care. It is a great beach bungalow at a great location. We could walk about a mile downtown along the beach, get breakfast or a bite to eat, and return. Location is a definite plus. Beds were comfortable and clean. The porch is great. We had a great experience.
