Fabulous, pet-friendly vacation rental!
Review Submitted: March 25, 2008

This home is the ultimate beach vacation rental. From the high-quality linens and bath products, to the well-stocked gourmet kitchen, it was five star luxury all the way, just as it is billed in its listing. We were so appreciative to find a pet-friendly home that was also luxurious... something that you rarely find. And the size of the home allowed all our family members to have their own rooms, and we could spread out and enjoy some relaxation without being on top of each other.
This house is clean, well-stocked and comfortable. It has all the amenities you could possibly need for a beach vacation. You don't need to bring a thing! There was even a large dog crate, perfect for our golden retriever.
We loved Folly Beach and the local atmosphere. The local "Lost Dog Cafe" was a perfect place for breakfast. Charleston was so easily accessible with all its lovely shops and restaurants, not to mention all the historical sites. The entire Charleston area has so much to explore, and Folly is the perfect hub for seeing it all.
In short, we can't say enough about this great home and the owner's customer service. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable, luxurious beach rental (with or without the family dog!).

We just returned from a wonderful vacation at Leonie's beautiful Folly Beach house. Besides being the most beautiful house on the street, it is also well designed with plenty of space for family/friends and animals and offers every amenity as well. The kitchen is awesome and comes equipped with everything you could possibly need. The short drive into Charleston is convenient and we did plenty of sightseeing with enough time left over to hit the beach in the afternoons. It's the best of both worlds! Thanks Leonie!

A friend and I just returned from our wonderful 5 day vacation at this beautiful beach home. We felt as though we were staying in a five star hotel! We spent our mornings eating breakfast on the comfortable screened porch. The weather was perfect, and my two dogs had plenty of good exercise walking on the beach. Home is in a perfect location, short walk to the ocean, restaurants and shops. We never drove our car during our entire stay. The owner provides so many special touches that make a stay at either of her homes very comfortable. You won't find a nicer pet friendly home anywhere on Folly Beach! I am so appreciative of you allowing us to have a few days at your gorgeous home.

We had an amazing time at your beautiful house! Pictures cannot do the house justice; when you walk in, you know that your vacation is going to relaxing and wonderful, even if you never leave the house. The view of the ocean from the upper deck was better than expected. Every morning waking up was like waking up on the beach because you can still hear the ocean waves crashing. Folly beach is the perfect size and has everything that you will need with Charleston only a ten minute drive over the bridge. We want to go back ASAP!!!

If you decide to stay at the Mediterranean villa on
Folly Island you will be as pleased as we were. The
villa is conveniently located a quick stroll to the
beach and Center Street where cute shops and tasty
restaurants are located. The villa itself is
wonderfully accommodating, spacious enough for
three, possibly four couples, or a large family
gathering, including your dog. There's enough
room to spread out and enjoy the patio, porch,
living room and huge family kitchen, all tastefully
appointed and fully equipped. If you buy fresh fish
from Crosby's nearby, you'll have a fabulous
gourmet kitchen to prepare it in.
Everything is just as described, if anything it
exceeded our expectations. Lee is dedicated to
making your vacation as wonderful as possible.
You'll be delighted!

House was great, everyone talked about how nice all weekend. Open spaces, decor, furnishings were all just wonderful. Roof deck was very popular Friday (warm sunshine), and some use Saturday morning. DVD is hooked up and works (one guy in group full tech-geek) TV has really good picture, watched ROLLING STONES live concert tape Saturday night after dinner. Surround sound was wonderful.
The cooks LOVED kitchen, that range/oven/hood combo is to die for, had fresh seafood two (2) nights (local shop), fixed full spread breakfast every morning. We did eat out local first night, couple lunches, and short pub crawl Friday night, very friendly, good food, and good service.
Weather turned out wonderfull, golf, walkers and had bicycles, toured around from park to light house and in between. Drive in basement was nice when unloading, then Sunday came with rain, was great when loading to leave.
Take care of place we are planning to come back

What a great weekend to be at the beach and especially this house. We brought our dogs for their first trip to the beach. The house is ready for dogs and more than ready for humans. So many extras!! Great location with an easy walk to the beach or town. Never had to use our car. And I think we only used one-third of the house!! The owners are very attentive to every detail and then some. Highly recommend staying here!!
Dog friendly and all the comforts of home

This home on Folly Beach is definitely the place to stay. Spacious, comfortable and reasonably priced,it was perfect for our family reunion. We had my parents, my daughter, son-in-law and their three children for a weekend stay. The house accomodated everyone beautifully. Andi, our black lab, loved our morning walks on the beach. She especially misses the very generous people at Bert's Market. Bert's was a daily stop on the way back from our morning walk to pick up the newspaper. All of the workers loved Andi, she would end up leaving with at least two cookies, sometimes more.
Within walking distance on Folly Beach, more than one visit to The Lost Dog restaurant on Huron Ave is a must. Just down the street is the Crab Shack another good choice. We also enjoyed the pleasures of Charleston, only 15 minutes away, and visits to frends on Seabrook Island. Hymen's Seafood and Poogan's Porch in Charleston were two of our favorites. Our two weeks stay went quickly, and we look forward to returning to this great home on Folly Beach! If you are considering staying on Folly Beach, this is the place to be. You won't be dissapointed!

We absolutely loved the house. It is well kept and very spacious. The rate for December rental was very reasonable. We used the house for our honeymoon and it exceeded our needs as there were just two of us. It is close to the beach and very near downtown Charlestown (maybe 10 minutes). The upper porch has a view of the ocean and is connected to the master bedroom and very spacious, but it is also very private as this balcony is above most of the neighboring properties. Would recommend to anyone from a couple of two to a large family. We would love to come and stay here again.
Owner's Response: We would also love to have Ben and Carol back.It gives me great pride and pleasure to see so many repeat guests each year. Thanks for your kind comments. Good Luck together ,Leonie

We are originally from Charleston and have a lot of family still living in the area. Your home was the perfect place for us to gather, enjoy good food prepared in your amazing kitchen and spend time taking trips down memory lane. The upstairs patio was a gathering spot for the younger family members, while the older folks spent most of their time on the well-furnished porch.
The amenities are fantastic, the beds extremely comfortable, and all the personal touches from scented hand soaps to ambient lighting to your thoughtful instructional notes, made our stay there such a memorable occasion.
The convenient location to downtown Folly was perfect for quick runs to Berts for grocery items or a short walk to a local hangout for a beer.
I hope to return soon!
