We visit Folly multiple times a year and this rental was our favorite so far. House was so cozy, the closeness to the beach was incredible, and location on the island was perfect.

Quick Stay

Our group came in for a long weekend for a wedding and this house was just what we were looking for: location and the perfect amount of space for our group. The house was conveniently located in walking distance from the beach and many things to do in Folly. Thanks!

Howdyshell Getaway

Thank you so much for a wonderful stay. We just moved back to VA from Texas, after 12 years. We missed Folly Beach so much! The house was perfect for our family. Rustic, older, and kept nice. Literally 99 easy steps to the beach. Thanks again for such a wonderful stay.

Great quirky house close to beach

The house is from the 30s and has a great personality! Beach access is very easy. Property was clean. We had a couple of small issues the 1st evening and by 10:30am the next morning they had already came over and resolved! Property is close to “downtown” Folly Beach but far enough away to be quiet. Only suggestion is it would be nice if all the rooms had a full length mirror instead of just the back bedroom. Overall, we loved it!

Review

The pictures need to be updated, the house needs some maintenance. The pictures look nice, but the entire house is leaning, the back yard looks much different in the pictures. The porch and lattice needs work. The lattice under the house is falling down, the grill that's available doesn't had propane to use. You need to purchase that! The house is ok but nothing extra for the price. Plenty of parking, clean house, but there not much else to say.

Location, location, location. If you can’t afford a beachfront property, this is the next best place. We counted the steps… it’s true, 99. We set up our spot in the morning and it was easy to walk back to the house for refreshments and bathroom breaks. I have rented many houses on Folly and Isle of Palms and I really think this is the perfect location. Mostly crowd free during the week.The house… it was perfect for us - 3 adults, 1 child, 1 dog. It was very clean. The kitchen has all the cooking necessities, nice pans and cutlery. We didn’t really cook a lot, but if we did it would have been no problem. Note, the house is old…. Built in 1948! There are features that are so interesting. I would have loved for the house to have pictures of it through the years. Oh the memories that house must have! However, as a result, the floors are a bit worrisome. I feel like it needs a bit more attention, structurally.All said, I would 100% rent it again. The rental company that manages it was very responsive to some air conditioning concerns we had. Turns out that a 78 year old house needs time to recover after the initial move in. Within 24 hours the air was comfortable and the refrigerator recovered from us loading it up with tasty snacks and beverages.I highly recommend this house for a fun stay on Folly!
