We stayed in this house seven years ago. We were surprised it was still in such excellent condition. We didn’t cook but the kitchen was well supplied for those that do. We love that the house is open, airy, bright and uncluttered. The views are perfect. Great spot for families.

Making Waves is such a wonderful property that everyone truly enjoyed! Being right on the beach was a treat that made having fun so convenient. It was such a blessing that our senior dog could stay with us and enjoy the beach as well. The home was clean and accommodated our daughters and their friends.

The beach house was in a fantastic location with the best view as possible. It had floor to ceiling windows where you could look out at the ocean 24 hours a day. It was quiet, comfortable good beds in a very relaxing experience. You will not find a better view of an ocean setting in Folly Beach.

Thank you Lucinda. We are so pleased to hear you enjoyed the location and the home during your winter visit. The views from this home are incredible, so even on days where the weather might be a bit inclement, you can enjoy watching the waves and wildlife from right inside the living area! Can't beat it!
