This turned out to be a perfect home base for a vacation with our 3 grown (early 20's) children. It can be hard at this stage of life to plan a trip with activities that ALL of us will enjoy, and to fit it into everyone's schedules. Some of us love the beach, some don't. Some like history and museums, some don't. Some are athletic, some aren't. Some can get a whole week off from work, some can't. This condo was within a reasonable walking distance from downtown Folly Beach (restaurants, bars, shops, kayak/bike rentals, and the beach itself), and also an easy 20-minute drive from Charleston (the city proper, and the airport). This allowed us to have kids come and go at different times (one son drove from Clemson, the other drove with us from NY, and our daughter flew into Charleston a couple days later) without feeling like precious vacation time was "wasted" with the comings and goings. It was super easy for us to split up if we wanted, do different things during the day and then come back together in the evening for dinner, cocktails, games, or just chatting about the day's adventures.
The condo itself was clean, comfortable and inviting, with a nice view from the screened in balcony. There was plenty of room to hang out together without feeling like we were on top of each other. Kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed to make breakfast every morning and a couple of simple dinners (though we did enjoy dining out a few nights.) The pool was nice, well-maintained and the water was at a good temperature - we used it daily. Parking was convenient - 2 reserved covered spaces for the unit, and a lot that was never too crowded during the day. Harris Teeter supermarket was only 2 miles down the road and had everything we needed in terms of groceries and supplies.
All in all, this rental was exactly right for our purposes. Would definitely stay here again if we're back in the area.
