Very clean and the view was spectacular! Two masters made it extra special. The rockers on both the deck and porch were perfect for my 88 year old parents! Well appointed kitchen but grill is small and dirty. No biggie bc everything else was perfect!

Awesome place!!!

Great View of Ocean the moment you walk in front door. My favorite place to chill was the daybed on porch. Kitchen is well equipped & water pressure in bathrooms was very good. We loved that it was so close to the County Park. We were completely satisfied with this Beach House and would rent it again.

Almost perfect…

House, Location, accommodations and beach were all STUNNING . The only reason is not a perfect scored Is because of complete excessive amount of miscellaneous decorations everywhere in the house.

Great place! Seven of us stayed in the Mermaid Memories house. There was plenty of sleeping space, and we managed to work with the 2 bathrooms. The view is spectacular! Right on the beach, beautiful deck, hammock, and sunroom. The house was clean and very comfortable. It was a wonderful stay!

Folly Fun Time

Just as pictured, great location, perfect place to relax and enjoy the beach! While some reviews focus on being dated, we give the owners credit for doing it their way, and actually living in the space, not trying to be trendy or picture perfect. The home is cozy, and no doubt the place of nostalgia and memories over the years. Thanks for sharing this welcoming coastal home!

The view alone!!!

One of the best houses we’ve ever rented. The view of the ocean from the sunroom and deck is amazing. The house was very clean and comfortable. It had two oceanfront king suites. The kitchen was well stocked. Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate so we’re ready to go back.

Beachiful

The house was perfect! Big enough to fit the family and feel like we all had our own spaces/bathrooms. Far enough away from the pier to basically have the beach to yourself on multiple occasions, but close enough to walk along the beach to dinner every night. Was awesome to rent some beach gear, went paddle boarding, saw dolphins sitting on the deck. Would recommend!

Perfect Family vacation!

Staying at Mermaid memories was such a joy. The back porch and view of the ocean was breathtaking. We enjoyed every moment of our stay. Getting to walk right down to the beach each morning with our three kids was priceless. The house was clean and comfortable and very homey. We cooked in the kitchen each night of our stay and it was so easy ! We found shark teeth and hermit crabs on the beach and enjoyed the tide going in and out each day. We very much look forward to staying at Mermaid memories again !

Perfection!

The view from the sun porch was mesmerizing. We had planned to spend some of our week exploring Charleston but the house and the beach held us. It was too beautiful. We did enjoy going into Charleston several times for late dinners--it was only 20-30 minutes away. It was exactly the kind of vacation we needed.

Beautiful, quaint and well appointed.

Mermaid Memories is one of those cute little houses that epitomizes the beach vibe. It was clean, well-located and had more amenities than I have at my own house. While they don’t guarantee beach chairs or towels, the house has plenty and every kitchen appliance you’d ever need. You can tell this house is well loved by its owners and it’s “honorary” owners. Highly recommend

Fantastic spot to stop for a week!

The house is at a great spot on the Ocean. We could not have been happier. The beach access is superior and the view is magnificent. Recent updates to the property were perfect with the new washer and dryer, the outdoor showers and wash down area at ground level were used regularly. My family enjoyed everything about the property from the bunk beds to the water toys left for people to use. Our mid August trip to Folly and MM will not be forgotten, Thank you for renting out your Beach house for others to enjoy.

Absolutely amazing!

This property has everything you could ask for when renting at Folly. You can’t beat the location and the relaxing views. The house is set up perfectly for the kids to sleep soundly in their huge room while the adults can still enjoy some time on the deck at night watching the stars. It was well equipped and didn’t lack any supplies you needed to get started. The two outdoor showers were awesome and there is plenty of parking for family/friends coming to use the beach. Our family of four absolutely loved it! We hope to be back next year!
