We have stayed in a few places on folly over the past 10 years and this one is our favorite! We spent the mornings watching the dolphins, the afternoons on the beach and evenings were spent fishing. We would definitely book this house again!
5.0 / 5.0
We had a great time, we enjoyed fishing from the Dock. We put our kayaks in. The boys loved the ocean. We ate to much.Overall we had a great time. Just a couple of changes that could be made.. the house was very hot at night. We all had a hard time sleeping, you didn’t need any of the covers. We were sweating. Only bedroom that was cool was the loft. The bathrooms also needs doors for more privacy. The hall bath needs a door added back to the hall, so that couple has more privacy. A tv also needs to be added to the guest bedroom. Beautiful home and we will come back. We love Folly Beach.

Overall I thought this was a lovely property. The views of Folly River and the Morris Island light house make this property exceptional, but other features such as a great kitchen, beautiful master suite and super fun game room make this a perfect house for a family or small group of friends. The house is very private and a short walk to the beach. Would rent again!

Absolutely stunning property with water views and private dock. House is generously proportioned with comfortable common areas and lovely bedrooms. Fully fenced yard was excellent for dogs. Beach is a short walk and dining/shopping a quick drive down the road. We loved our first time visiting folly beach. Property owner was responsive and helpful. Wonderful rental. Highly recommend.

What a great property! Beautiful views, convenient location to the 13th street beach access. Quiet location and loved the fenced in yard for our dog! We utilized the dock to view gorgeous sunsets and to paddle board. Game room was a plus and we used it often. The beds were comfortable and kitchen fully stocked. A well appointed house with a quirky/beachy/coastal feel. We would rent here again for sure!

We loved our week here. We are avid birders and the best birding on the island was right from the dock. The house is lovely and has everything for a comfortable stay.

Great location, great spaces
Our group enjoyed all the areas of the house, playing pool and games together. It was a great dock with fishing fun every evening and abundant new fish tales! My grandsons caught their first fish! The dolphins were there every day. It was a short shady walk to the beach! If you are looking for great fun, rent this house, and make your own memories!

First Folly visit
Wonderful feeling of seclusion on very busy island. Loved the dock and dolphin visits at low tide. We rented kayaks and paddle boards and were thrilled with dolphins. The kids had fun catching crabs off the dock and renting surf boards and trying them out in the ocean. Pool table also was a hit. Thanks for the magical vacation!

Great Stay on Folly Beach
This is a fabulous property! Located on the Marsh side of Folly, the house is beautiful and immaculately clean. The kitchen is very nice and well equipped. The Dock is great, rent a Kayak or bring your own boat. Dolphins play right off the dock, great for an evening cocktail.
Only one negative, there is a beautiful Live Oak overhanging the house, but it drops acorns on the master bedroom. Bring some earplugs for whoever is in that room.

Great location
This home was exceptional. We’ve stayed at lots of different places on Folly and this one was everyone’s favorite so far. Deep creek access paired with easy walk to the beach is unmatched. Plenty of space for our party of 8. We also enjoyed the eclectic art and old style furniture. The mattresses were quality and the kitchen fully stocked. I don’t think you could ask for more from a vacation home. We hope to return again next year.

Surfs Up ! The life of an artist.
This place is an excellent choice if you like an artistic atmosphere near the beach. This place is so peaceful and the views of the inland water ways is off the chart. I may need to go back with a fishing pole !! It was a beautiful setting to relax and enjoy Folly Beach and Charleston.. Would highly recommend to any family !!

Great place to have a vacation with your family
We were very happy with this house, it was a great vacation home. It had everything we needed, the kitchen is stocked and very clean and organized. And we all loved the game room, everyone really had a great time. The layout was perfect . And what a view ❤️❤️ It was great having the dock. The only thing I would of liked the yard to have been cleaner my puppy didn’t have a good place to play. But I definitely recommend this house for your next vacation

Fabulous home with outstanding views!
Our family spent Thanksgiving here and had the best time!! The home is perfectly equipped with everything you need (including a well stocked kitchen!). Comfy beds, incredible views, and plenty of seating for our large family. Great access for fishing & fantastic dock that we enjoyed, even with the King Tide! Thank you for the wonderful stay, we will be back!

Again a very relaxing stay at this wonderful property!
The dock on the river is great! It is a long walk to the dock and no rails on the walkway to the dock, but is fabulous when arrive. Not safe for little kids tho, so keep this in mind. Good seating at dock and the fridge is nice out there. Captain Mike can pick you up there fr boating experience to Morris island.
The house is comfortable, but if you have small children/ toddler/baby and have someone sleeping in loft, make sure they are early risers.
There are 3 bedrooms and the loft. The master bedroom and bath are huge, which is nice, but the other bedrooms are very small. The other full bath is also very small, and the half bath should be called a quarter bath, is also tiny.
We have been to this house twice, and greatly enjoy our stay, but others who haven’t used this home may want to be aware of the bedroom and house arrangement. We have thought the huge master should rearrange to make another large bathroom,,, or floor further over the loft area and have a bath upstairs. The kitchen is great, the ping pong rec room was used a lot. Front porch area is nice. Mike and Diane very helpful if needed. We stayed at a realtor managed home last year, oceanfront, and there were issues every day, and response time was terrible.
We rented 2 golf carts for the week, which worked out well for our group of 7 adults and 1 toddler.
This is a well managed and maintained Folly property!

Property was beautifull with great views amd the private dock was wonderful.
The property was at a great location and had a great view. It was well equipped with all the necessities and the open floor plan made it a perfect home for multiple people. The private dock was a wonderful peaceful extra place to sit and read and to launch kayaks. I would recommend without reservation.

Perfect Spot
River retreat was the perfect place for our group of 6 adults! It was the best of both of both worlds. River on one side and the beach on the other. spent mornings at the beach and afternoons on the dock, where seeing the dolphins never failed to delight! the dock quickly became one of our favorite places to hang out for afternoon cocktails and reading. The breeze made it easy. The dock is long and a handrail might be important if you have little children, The kitchen was well equipped and we made a number of meals. Thanks for a great vacation. We would definitely go back!
