A trip we'll remember for a lifetime!
We stayed here from June 18-22, 2025 and absolutely loved it! The unit is very spacious, with 2 large bedrooms, a large, well-stocked kitchen, and a nice living room. It was very hot and humid while we were there and the A/C worked very well and kept us nice and cool the entire time.The location is very good too. It's only a 5 minute drive into town, or about a 15-20 minute walk. It's also about a 5 minute walk to the beach and there's a beach access path right next to the house.The last thing I want to mention is the real reason why we (I specifically) chose this place to stay. I proposed to my girlfriend on this trip! I wanted to make sure that we had an affordable, nice place to stay that was in close proximity to both the beach and town. This unit went above and beyond both of our expectations and we can't wait to stay here again in the future!

Great stay again!
This was our second timing staying at this property. Has all you could need. Clean, very comfy beds and a quick walk to the beach!
Owners were very accommodating, friendly and welcoming. Anything we needed they were extremely helpful and from all the times we've used VRBO, they were our favorite host. They offered to replenish all the paper products, soaps, etc if we ran out and even brought us done some of their personal kitchen items to use while cooking. Will definitely stay there again if we go back to Folly Beach! Less than 2 blocks from the beach and 4-5 blocks down to all the retail stores/restaurants around Center St. so not a bad walk. My 7 yr old was fine walking most of the trip but we did rent a golf cart for 3 days for something fun and different while there.

Perfect for a beach stay!
We had a fantastic time. The kitchen is great, very well appointed with lots of thoughtful extras that you don’t get at the corporately run places. We had everything we needed to be able to cook a few meals. FYI, the bed in the front bedroom is softer, but I slept great on the firmer one, and I’m usually the picky soft bed lover. The living room is also comfy, though we barely used it since we were on the go. There’s a very cute little sitting area out back if you come at the right time of year (we just enjoyed the laundry line for wet swimsuits!).
The only downside to the property is the bathroom. It is quite small and sometimes got a little smelly. It would be tough to have lots of folks trying to get ready in there (though there are mirrors in each bedroom). But for a beach trip, it was perfect— everything we needed and just a short walk to the beach!

Great place! Would definitely stay again!
Everything was great! Short and easy walk to the beach! Very clean property with super helpful and friendly hosts. We brought our dog, and there was a dog park right across the street in the back we often visited. The main strip of restaurants and shops along with the pier access is not too far of a walk, which is really nice because finding parking on the island can be quite difficult at times. All around 5 stars for everything!
