Bohemian Bungalow:Perfect Location to Beach & Town
This place is wonderful for a family gathering! Everything was clean and ready for us when we arrived. This was our yearly family gathering and we like to cook all of our meals. The kitchen was well stocked with all the necessary cookware, dishes, glassware, etc. that you would need. Each bedroom was well stocked with blankets, pillows, towels, and washcloths for every guest. The bathrooms were super clean. The living room has an awesome sectional couch that is roomy enough for several adults and was a great place for napping and reading. We loved hanging out in the screened in areas upstairs and downstairs. The outside shower was fantastic! You will not need to bring anything for your beach trip as their downstairs closet was supplied with everything you would need for a day at the beach. The location is perfect, within walking distance to anything you may want to do. We would definitely recommend this for anyone!

SunsetShack FollyBeach House on Pond 1 Blk @ beach
Nice, relaxing, accommodating, peaceful location with a very short walk to the beach, a great view of the fish jumping in the pond, the geese taking a breather and the herons perching in the trees behind the house. The house itself was very clean and comfortable with most everything provided, including a dog (or child) gate for if needed. Sam, the host, is an excellent communicator and doesn't leave any stones unturned including friendly reminders the day of check-in and the night before check-out. He also provided recommendations for food, entertainment, and activities in the immediate area. We had an amazing trip and would definitely recommend to others!!

Serenity: Peaceful, Pet-Friendly Treehouse Retreat
Our family of 4 had an amazing time! The property is so peaceful, and you’re only a short walk or drive from the beach and pools. Tyler is amazingly communicative, helpful, and seems to truly want you to have a wonderful experience. Everything is just as it is pictured, including the beach wagon, toys, umbrellas. Our kids are 3 and 7, and they loved watching the wildlife from the deck. We were initially a little worried about the kids navigating the spiral staircase, and when we arrived we found they supply a baby gate that fits all the way around the railing and openings. It really eased our minds. If you like the idea of being submerged in nature by the beach, don’t hesitate to book this rental! We’ll return for sure!

Beachfront Condo 500 Steps to the Ocean
Better than the pictures! I’m a clean freak and this place matched my expectations. It’s was enough space for my husband, my baby, my dog and me. Lisa was very responsive and answered our questions while we were there. I appreciated the white noise machine too! We will make this our official beach AirBnB

Seconds to the Sea!
What a delightful experience. We visit Folly often and have stayed in many Airbnbs. We LOVED being here! Can’t wait to come back! If you are looking for a bit of beach privacy, and bring your dogs… this is the perfect place. I loved every moment in and around the property. Such a fun house and location. William was so kind and helpful. So grateful for the experience.

New Listing! Tarpon- Charming 1 BR, Steps to Beach
Such a wonderful home, beautiful kitchen, porch, yard, so enjoyable. I enjoyed the reading material. Walking distance to the beach. Great neighborhood. Host communicated right away and asked if there was anything I needed. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

House deep private dock- walk to Angel Oak Tree
We had a wonderful relaxing vacation. Close to Charleston and the beach but far enough away to be private and relaxing. House was clean with a great layout. Enjoyed the dock and the screened in porch. Will be the go to location when visiting the area.

Lovely Folly Beach Home Just Steps to the Beach!
We really enjoyed our stay at this beach home! It’s very walkable to town and the beach is right around the corner! This was the most well stocked Airbnb we have stayed in! We were super impressed. George was a great host and very easy to communicate with. The kids had a great time and so did we!

Dunes West-beachside Port O'Call
Really nice condo for the location at Wild Dunes. So easy to get to the beach. Mona was extremely responsive and helpful.

Newly renovated Oceanfront Condo ~ Isle of Palms
We loved our stay at IOP and would gladly come back! Great location and just enough space for my husband and I!

Beach Club Villa 32 - Elite Oceanfront! Pool!
What a great spot, right on the beach and perfect for our family vacation. Would love to come back next year!

Oceanfront Top Floor ☼ Beautiful Panoramic View!
Perfect place for a quick little get away! Hope to return soon!

Stylish Ocean Front Sanctuary
Everything was awesome. The only negative was we didn’t end up getting check-in access until about 5pm the first day, but we did get an hour later checkout. Would stay again for sure

Oceanfront Villa-pool/pier, fishing, stunning view
Stayed for a few days with our small family. Grateful for the easy walks to the beach and the pool. There was plenty of play gear available for the beach. The kitchen was well stocked for a good cup of coffee and to accommodate some simple meals for our picky children. Great views in the morning, too!

Dolphins, Wildlife amazing location to see it all!
Catrina's townhouse was perfect for our family of 6 adults, one toddler and a baby. We especially liked the location as you could walk to the beach and restaurants and yet get to Charleston fairly quickly for sightseeing and doing things in the city. Catrina supplied beach toys/chairs/towels and a wagon for loading up to take to the beach which we really appreciated. There were also bikes we could use and two kayaks(although we didn't use the kayaks). She instructed us what to expect upon arrival and what supplies were provided before we arrived so we could pack or pick them up before arriving which was nice as it seemed a little different than some things on the west coast. We had a great time and would highly recommend this for a family get away!

*Superhost Beachview* 1/2 block to beach & dining!
Comfortable beds, soft sheets, the noise machines were a great touch. Two rooms are really dark, the room facing the beach, which you can hear and see from the room, wasn't pitch black but we had no trouble sleeping there. Great location, perfect balcony, pool easily accessible.....just worked out well. We cooked some, had what we needed there. AC was cold when we wanted it to be. Folly is a great place, and this is in the heart, but still quiet. Get yourself a stay booked here.

A little slice of paradise - Walk to beach
Really appreciated being able to leave my car in the driveway after checkout so i could grab a few hours on the beach!

Oceanfront Dream 4 Br 4 Ba w/ balcony
I have stayed in many condos and let me just say this one really stood out as top notch! It was clean, nice furnishings, fully equipped. One thing that was soooo nice was it was stocked trash bags, toilet paper, paper towels, dish/laundry detergent. The utility closet was full of extra surprises of beach equipment, toys, and cleaning supplies. It felt just like home!!! It truly felt like a home and the host was very responsive to any questions we had during the stay. Highly recommend. It’s top notch of all condos we’ve stayed in. Thank you!

Oceanfront Condo in Seaside Villas II
We stayed for 2 nights. It was incredibly relaxing watching and listening to the waves on the deck. Walked to dinner at Rita’s one night and walked to dinner at Taco Boy the other night. We love this condo and the location can’t be beat. Ocean, shops and dinner all right where you want!

Heavenly Blue
This is our second time staying at Bob's place and our family loves it. The view of the marsh from the living spaces is such a wonderful part of our enjoyment of the home. We spent a lot of time on the porch overlooking the marsh and water. The bedroom configurations are perfect for our family and the kitchen is well stocked.

3 Bed Oceanfront Windswept Unit w/ Views!
Place was immaculate- great views, very clean and kitchen well stocked. Loved the decor and good views of the beach. We can't wait to return!

Lowcountry Folly
First time on the coast of SC & we absolutely love Folly Beach! Emily had great recommendations & was super helpful. The house was cozy & was super close to the beach! The house had almost everything we needed including beach equipment. The beach itself was peaceful & was a short drive to downtown Folly where delicious restaurant & shops were located. Would definitely stay at Emily’s again!

Kiawah Island Villa Captain’s Quarters
Can't say enough about how wonderful our stay was at Captain's Quarters! Barbie instantly makes you feel welcome - from the detailed instructions on finding the villa, restaurant recommendations, quick responses on anything and everything to the clean and comfortable accommodations in the villa! The location of the villa is amazing! So quiet and private with quick beach access. We loved the outdoor sunroom area which overlooks the pond - the nature sounds and wildlife views were spectacular! The beach here is pristine too and was never busy, we felt like we had it all to ourselves! Overall 10/10!! We would definitely visit again!

Gentleman Pirate (Ocean Views!)
Felt just like home ! Would definitely come back to this house in the future. 10/10
