Didn’t need to leave the property

We are a family of 5, with 3 small children ages 6-8. We didn’t need to leave the property and our kids were either busy watching surfers, in the pool or in the ocean. The sea turtle nests were an added attraction.

The pool was a hit

It was just the right size for my husband and I to spend a weekend away. Right on the beach, with a pool my husband described as the perfect size and temperature. Had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable, and the screened in porch had very relaxing furniture to enjoy more time outside. The alarm in our room did go off at 4 am, but that's on whoever left it turned on before us. Easy enough to fix. Comfortable beds, a bathroom with just what you needed and tv for nights in. We will definitely be back.

We're so glad you had a good time! The stovetop at this home is actually an induction stovetop and will not turn on unless there is a compatible pan on the stove for safety reasons. The dryer has been repaired as were the screens! We'd love to have y'all back to stay with us again!

Not pleased.

We have used this location now twice. Very unsatisfied with the condition of the property. The house is a wonderful location. The house itself less satisfied. The stove top worked to cook eggs one morning. When trying to cook other items only one burner worked and when we tried to use the same burner again would no longer work. Had this same issue 3 years ago still was not fixed. The dresser in the primary bedroom fell apart couldn’t even use 3 drawers out of the 5 for our clothes. No hangers provided if you did want to hang anything which was disappointing. The bathroom sink would not drain as the stopper was stuck and it was broke and rusted into two pieces below no way of fixing ourself. The primary room window air unit could see light below it. Was not properly sealed. They stated to bring hand towels for kitchen to use. Did not state we must also bring pot holders or a pizza cutter. Was not the dream vacation we were expecting. Heated pool was great if the sun was out and shinning bright. Otherwise pool was cold and not enjoyable. Very disappointed to see how run down the inside of this property has become. Either poor management or owners just making a buck.

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear this stay didn’t meet expectations and appreciate your continued loyalty. After your stay, we reached out to discuss the stove and closet issues. The stove is an induction cooktop that requires compatible cookware, and we're adding clear signage to guide guests. We have also replaced the dresser with a more durable piece and added additional closet inserts for better storage. The bathroom sink and window unit have been addressed, and our local team is available 24/7 to handle any maintenance needs. We provide a starter pack with essentials like towels, dish soap, and detergent, and are always ready to replenish items if needed. We regret we didn’t hear from you during the stay, but your input is invaluable in helping us improve.

Couples Quick Retreat

This property was a renovated two-level beach house w heated pool, 25'x12', very literally steps from the beach. Location, location, location. Very clean. We rented the bottom portion. Fairly small inside but it just worked for us two 50-something married couples. The screened porch was well furnished with wicker furniture. We would like to return to Folly Beach and to this place specifically.

Small Place. Gorgeous patio and beachfront location.

The price for the listing was definitely worthwhile. The outdoor screened in patio and heated pool was beautiful and spacious with a view of the beach yet private from the beach. That alone was absolutely worth it. The house was small.. the two bedrooms were hard to move around in, beds squeezed in and little space for anything else like luggage. Carpet in main room was very rough like an outdoor one.. needed socks for sure. Felt a little cold most of the time- the thermostat went back to their settings automatically so it was hard to keep it comfortable. Amenities were minimum, no coffee, dish soap, barely enough toilet paper- but truly was fine. We had a wonderful stay even in January. The keypad for unlocking the door was finicky- we had to try 3-5 times most times and sometimes couldn’t get it to work. It was in a great quiet location on Folly beach that was just a 3min drive to the restaurants on Center Street. Everything we tried in town was amazing. Great seafood and the quickest service I’ve had! So nice with baby.
