The photos were a bit misleading, we were not aware that the second bathroom was not inside the apartment, although that turned out to be ok, giving a bit more privacy and room. The apartment had a moldy musty smell, there was an issue with the kitchen sink, early one morning we heard the people upstairs using water and the kitchen sink started to rumble and gurgle, water then backed up into it and the sink overflowed, there was nothing in the sink so it was easy to clean and then the water went back down eventually. The stay was ok however we will not elect to stay there when we visit again.
Very dated. Had to have assistance with sink and tub not draining. Pool not available. Would work for families with children. Should be better appointed for price.
We enjoyed our stay, but furnishings and decor were very outdated. The second bathroom was located in a separate building (pool area), which was fine, but the air conditioning in that building did not work effectively. The main house had very low ceilings, and my husband had to duck under the ceiling fans. The pool area was cleanly and very nice. This house is a prime location and a good walking distance to downtown strip and beach.
Very pretty setting with relaxing atmosphere. Didn't want for anything. Walking distance to stores, beach and Center St with all the restaurants and bars. Great location.
This cottage was perfect for our family of four. It is conveniently located a short walk from the beach. The kids had a blast in the pool and the host was a joy to speak with. We highly recommend it and will try to return here for our next trip to Folly Beach!
Very enjoyable stay with beach and food/drink venues in easy walking distance. It was also nice to sit on property around pool and hear the birds and breathe salt air.
This cottage was a great spot for our trip. It was comfortable and having a pool was awesome. It was close to the beach, 2 blocks, and several restaurants and a small market. We could walk everywhere we wanted to go. The only issue was the address which is 316 East Cooper but the door opens onto East Erie. Our Ubers picked up and dropped off on Erie Ave.

We had a great time. Close to the beach and an excellent place. Y'all might want to check the plumbing; the sink in the kitchen and the bathroom were very slow draining. The small bedroom with the ceiling fan had a kind of funky smell, like mildew and nicotine. We sprayed and it was fine, but might want to check! Overall a great time was had by all!!!!
Loved our stay in Folly at this fabulous property that was 3 blocks from the ocean as well as has a pool. Very clean and was great for our adult family of five. The owners live upstairs and are friendly but not intrusive. Will definitely keep this property in mind for future visits to Folly!
Great place to stay. Clean. Convenient for walking to beach and Folly restaurants and shops. Private pool as well.

Property not listed as basement level, not too clean.
We were a bit disappointed the property wasn't listed as lower level...cleanliness was below par. There were no TV instructions, dishwasher leaked water and was broken, had to call about ice maker because it didn't work, no instructions for leaving and what to do with laundry, dishware, etc., lighting was tricky, nothing labeled. Outside light couldn't be turned off so one bedroom had light coming in all night. No parking instructions, only one spot.
The distance to the beach was great, only a 2 block walk.
We had a wonderful family stay at Folly Beach. The location was perfect, close to the fun of Center St and just a couple of blocks from the beach. The pool made for a great spot for the family to relax and we had a couple of very nice chats with Greg. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality!
The house is just as described. You have to go to the back to come in rather than entering from the address side, which was funny! We found everything to be delightfully clean and even met the owners upstairs, who were fabulous. I highly recommend!
The kitchen was fully equipped with a nice charcoal grill to cook for my family, affordable, and has a great location, the master bedroom mini blinds do not close well and need replacing, and the cottage needs a dehumidifier because it remains humid, in addition to this we found two live roaches, consider regular pest control visits

Disappointing
The bed is shot and needs to be replaced. Also we spent much of the time there killing large bugs.
Plenty of room, comfortable beds, great location. Easy walk to restaurants and shops. 20 minutes to downtown Charleston. The pool looks inviting but not in February.
All in all, this was the right venue for us, as our grad school daughter lives on the island and we were going hack and forth between her place and this beach property. Communications with the owner were very easy. (We had no problems, just questions about things.) Access to the beach was easy, although the weather didn’t cooperate. The only draw back i would say is that the place sleeps 6 but i think 6 adults would have felt very cramped, especially with less than ideal weather.
Great location and property. Ample room for all. One full bathroom inside was hectic for four adults since the outside pool house bathroom was not working. All and all everything went well. We will definitely be back.
