Wonderful house, clean, spacious, each bedroom with its own dedicated full bathroom. It was the perfect spot right on the sand for us to have our wedding. Would do it all again 100%.
5/5 – Fantastic Beach House!Perfect beach house stay! Steps from the ocean, bright coastal decor, and comfortable beds. Loved the spacious deck with ocean views, and well-equipped kitchen. Responsive host. We’d definitely return!Highly recommend for a true coastal getaway.
We had the most perfect wedding at this stunning beach house! We had our eyeson the house for over a year prior to booking it, and I am so glad we did. It was the perfect place to have all of our family members stay, and each part of the house and the yard were so beautiful. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to have our dream wedding, and Ross was so easy to communicate with and was helpful throughout the whole process. I highly recommend this property!

We love good people making great memories. Thanks for having a great time!
Absolutely beautiful home on a quiet stretch of beach. Very well accommodated and everything works perfectly. Family from Minnesota and Oregon shared a week here. The kitchen was very well organized and stocked with great pans where we cooked several meals. The screen porch was nice when it rained a bit and it helped when it was a bit too windy. Great spot!
Great communication with host. Easy check-in and check/out. Excellent property for families thanks to fenced, grassy backyard. Secure property. Well appointed kitchen space. Beach views from every room. Spacious garage. Master bathroom shower was especially appreciated!
Wonderful stay on Folly Beach! Excellent location and views. The house is extremely spacious and well appointed. Check in was a breeze and the host is great with communication.

Thanks so much, Jamie. We were happy to have you and your family. Have a great time at our beach house. Come back soon.
This property was truly everything we could have hoped for to stay for our wedding on Folly Beach. Our highlights were the "bunk" room, huge kitchen and dining room table, and the screened in porch. The proximity to the beach doesn't hurt either. It is spacious and perfect for a large group. They seem to have thought of most things you could want!
This was our 10th summer in Folly and this was now our second time staying at A Beach Thing. We will absolutely stay here every time we visit. Beautiful house, so clean, excellent accommodations, and even better communication from the host. Thank you again for keeping our family tradition going in the best way!

Thanks so much Jennifer! please come back at any time.. happy to have you and gald you enjoyed your stay!
It was the perfect place to host a family multi-generational vacation. The beach is very peaceful and plenty to do on Folly Beach and an east drive to Charleston.
The house was amazing and the pool table was a big hit. It accommodated our whole family perfectly. The yard was great for games and it was a perfect walk to the beach.
