Welcome to Marsh Madness! This spectacular, 2nd row home boosts stunning ocean, river and marsh views. This classic beach cottage is located directly across the street from the beach where you will enjoy easy beach access just steps away from The Washout, South Carolina's famous surfing hot spot. This home truly has it all, unbelievable views of the South Carolina Lowcountry while providing all the modern comforts of home.

The eat-in kitchen has plenty of room for the entire family to hang out while dinner is prepared. Imagine gathering for dinner with the South Carolina sunset in the background or breakfast as the sunlight graces the marsh starting your day on Folly Beach. Plenty of seating at the table and access to the rear deck will make the kitchen a popular place to spend time with friends and family. The owners have provided all the needed essentials even the most discerning chef would need.

We loved Marsh Madness! Beautiful marsh views, very spacious and open floorplan that worked so well for our family.

Group of friends for 50 years enjoyed a long weekend at Marsh Madness. House was well laid out with everything we needed for our stay. Beautiful views of sunset across the marsh. We didn’t cook so can’t speak to pots and pans but we did hire a private chef one night and there was plenty of room. Loved the location and the house.

We loved the view of the marsh from the kitchen table. We spent most of our time there.
The home is beautifully decorated and comfortable with an abundance of space.
We were disappointed in the cleanliness of the kitchen dishes, silverware, pots and pans. Since there wasn't anything available to clean them, SOS pads etc., so I am not surprised but disappointed. There were food solids on multiple pans and pots. And both electric and manual can openers were black with solids I went out the second day and bought two pans so I could at least cook some of what I brought with us.
We made an assumption that 4 BR/4Bath would give each of us a full bathroom. We were mistaken and had to share a bathroom. Not prefered.
General suggestions:
-List of what can be recycled
-Info on how to use the TV with multiple remotes
Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Marsh Madness was a great vacation spot for our family of 7 adults. Beautiful marsh views, easy walk to the beach, very clean, great kitchen and plenty of space for everyone

Marsh Madness - the photos don’t do it justice! Our party was 8 adults and we had plenty of room to eat together, play games together and simply hang out. Easy beach access is .1 mile away. We loved watching the marsh wildlife and how it changed with the tides. We will definitely come back!

The sunsets were amazing and the space was great. We all agreed that it would be a place we would return with our own extended families because the house has enough space to all hang out together.

Wonderful family vacation at Marsh Madness!
Wonderful 10 day stay at Marsh Madness. House was exactly as described…well stocked kitchen…all the appliances and cooking utensils needed for preparing most of our meals. The house was situated well away from the center of Folly Beach so it was very quiet at night. We rented a golf cart to drive to the Washout and go to the center of town when needed. The other beach access is very close…less than a 10 minute walk. Because of the house’s location the beach was very quiet during the day with lots of space. About the only thing I would fuss about was the lack of bath mats….definitely needed. I would recommend renting Marsh Madness!

We loved our stay at Marsh Madness! The home is very spacious with plenty of room for all eight of us (including four kids from ages 10-18 and in-laws). The marsh view from the kitchen and back deck is simply beautiful! You can see the ocean from the living area level deck, but it’s even better from the loft deck. The description says it has three bathrooms, but there are actually four bathrooms, which was a great surprise benefit. The loft area has a full-size futon and 3/4 bath and deck. The master has a king bed and a 3/4 bath with access to the back deck, and the queen sized bedroom has a private full bath. There is another full bath in the hall between the other two king-size bedrooms. It was an easy walk to the beach access at 1640, and a quick drive to the handicapped parking lot at 1670. The walk to the lighthouse beach is lovely, but hot! Bring water!! Parking in the town center is paid parking (and more expensive on the weekend), but has plenty of shops and restaurants. It’s an easy drive into Charleston (about 20-25 minutes), so we took full advantage as we were there to tour College of Charleston. Few hiccups firing our stay. The house didn’t have enough towels and was missing two shower mats. The dryer wasn’t functioning properly (wouldn’t dry clothes), but the management company came right out to check out the issue. (A technician was needed, so hopefully it was repaired after we left.) The couches and beds were comfortable. We had plenty of room to spread out and relax. The hammock on the ground level was a favorite hangout for the kids. The outside shower came in handy after our beach visits. We’d definitely stay at Marsh Madness again. Great family getaway!

The house was perfect for our large family. It’s more spacious in person which was nice for our large group. I would recommend a golf cart if you have young children going to and from
The beach as the access is a little bit of a walk but fine for adults. Kitchen was fully equipped and the marsh views and sunsets are amazing!

Came from Illinois and had local family join us for a staycation. It was the perfect place to spend Thanksgiving week together. House was better than the pictures. Not super close to downtown Folly but with small kids during a pandemic this was perfect, and it was the perfect distance away for a leisurely golf cart ride to pick up dinner or run to the store for odds and ends. Would absolutely book here again!

The house was larger and more open then the pictures so it justice. Beautiful view from the back of the marsh and of the ocean from the top deck. Only down side was that it was very difficult to get an Uber to travel into Charleston, local cab service was our saving grace. Not sure if it was because we stayed during off season? Great place for a girls trip.

Beautiful views
Marsh Maddness was the perfect house for our family’s stay in Folly. The view of the marsh is so beautiful and serene, and there is a great view of the beach just across the street as well. It was a 5 minute drive and 10 minute walk to view the Morris Island Lighthouse and about a 25-30 minute drive to historic downtown Charleston. The house was clean, and it has very nice decor. Communication with Caroline One was easy, and they were very accommodating. We hope to have the opportunity to stay at Marsh Maddness again in the future!

Great Beach house
We loved the views of the marsh from the kitchen, dining room and deck. We ate breakfast on the deck every morning. The sunsets are beautiful. The house feels very roomy, all the bedrooms are a nice size and it is in very good condition. The extra bathroom upstairs came in handy too. This is my favorite location at Folly.
