Our stay was amazing! Julia and Omar were extremely responsive. During our stay, there was a mechanical issue with an appliance and they were extremely accommodating and got someone over to repair the issue the same day. The location of this house is amazing: the proximity to Bert’s, beach access, and restaurants made our trip so easy. We have never stayed at the same rental property twice, but are already talking about when we can return to their place!

Perfect

Easy access to "Downtown Folly", one block beach access, next to greatest island store (Berts) and island tacos (Chico). We travel to Folly every year for the Surfers Healing event and this place is our favorite place to date.

Folly Beach New year

The house at 206 E Ashley is small but perfect for the two of us. Two blocks from the ocean, short walk of two blocks to Center Street, and near Bert's grocery. Excellent location and accommodations.

Close to the beach and all the Folly Beach fun

The property is located very close to the beach, next door to a 24 hour market, and within walking distance from all that Folly has to offer. The hosts were incredibly helpful and very responsive when answering questions. We loved the decor, and we really appreciated the washer and dryer. Our family of 4 looks forward to staying here again!

Responsive Hosts!

The location of the property is fantastic. It's a quick walk to the beach and to many delightful restaurants. Bert's Market is next door and has everything you need for your stay and friendly service. The hosts are responsive and we can say they will do whatever they can to ensure you have a nice stay in Folly. We had a great time exploring the area and would return.

Fun getaway weekend!

Cutest cottage for our first time at Folly Beach! Julia and Omar were very responsive and even met us in person on our first day welcoming us. Location was exactly as described and within walking distance to everything from the beach to all the cute restaurants/bars! Also loved having Berts Market right next door to grab a yummy breakfast sandwich or a quick item that we needed for our stay! Will come back for sure :)

We’d give it 10 stars, but there’s only 5 stars available

Really convenient, super cute, and clean! Great and nicely stocked kitchen. The porch was wonderful for our dogs too. It’s great for small families with older kids. Our daughter loves being able to run next door to Berts if she wanted a snack.

Hospitality and LOCATION!

The owners were more than accommodating. We had all the amenities and space we needed. The weather was colder than normal for this time of year and of course the last day it warmed up. We asked if we could stay an extra day and they graciously allowed us and the transaction was a breeze. Folly is a great place to stay, visit, and live. Cheers!

Parents Weekend Getaway

Overall a lovely stay. Property is quaint and exactly what we were looking for. A short drive into Charleston and location to the beach and local life excellent. We would stay here again for sure. Only recommendations would be to address the bathroom ceiling and the screened porch door. Esthetically not pleasing to have the water stains/mold on the ceiling and would have been nice to enjoy the screened porch more. Only minor issues but clean and comfortable for our needs!

Folly Fabulous

This property was perfectly located and accurately described. The property was tastefully appointed. Highly recommended.. I want to send a special shout out to the hosts. They were absolutely fantastic. Communication was perfect. We were stranded in South Carolina due to the gas shortages. Julia and Omar went out of their way to find us another location to spend a few more days until we could get home. I cannot tell you how much that was appreciated.

Authentic Folly Beach Experience

If you are looking for an authentic Folly Beach stay, then you have found the right place! This 1940s cottage has all the modern amenities you need while still capturing the charm of a beach cottage during that era! Beds were super comfortable as well as linens. Plenty of towels! The screened in porch is ideal for people watching, and you will get a lot of it which we adored! Being right next to the downtown area, and Berts you will not need your vehicle. Everything is within short walking distance and super convenient. Walk to the beach is minutes and the surf was amazing! Please stay here, you will be so happy just like we are. Thanks Omar!
