A wonderful place and a responsive, gracious Owner
Submitted: May 15, 2013

My wife and I have traveled quite often and have never been disappointed with a HomeAway rental unit; however, our Folly Flamingo Suite experience was truly exceptional.
Although the unit we rented was delightful and greatly exceeded our expectations (very clean, nicely decorated, well equipped, short walk to the beach and restaurants, and competitively priced), what made this experience so very special was the friendliness and responsiveness of the gracious owner.
The owner was very responsive and accommodating with our last minute reservation request. She and her Folly Flamingo Suite played a major role in making our brief stay in the Charleston area a memorable experience. We had a wonderful weekend. Guaranteed ... Folly Flamingo will be our first choice for all of our future trips to the Charleston area.

Great Location, not very clean
Submitted: August 14, 2012
Stayed: August 2012
First I would like to list the pro's. Excellent location to the restaurants, beach, and also Bert's market. Nicely furnished, plenty of space. I enjoyed the outdoor shower. Janet was an absolute joy to work with, mostly because she would allow us to rent for less than a week. Having said that, it was NOT clean. Apparently there was a misscommunication between Janet and Susan(the manager). We were told we could arrive early because there was no one who stayed in the flamingo before us, but Susan was not aware. When we arrived the unit was not cleaned. There was a horrible foul odor radiating throughout the kitchen, the countertops were sticky, the bathroom tub had not been cleaned. After we cleaned the unit it was a great place to stay. The manager did respond promptly, and we were told she hadn't made her "final walk through yet." A "final walk through," does not mean the whole unit still needs to be cleaned. It was VERY stressful. It may sound harsh, but I feel like I need to be honest.
Owner's Response: Hello Alisha,
I have learned my lesson about letting folks check in early. Best to stick with the rules so all parties are happy. The smell was a piece of shrimp that was left in the disposal with a dime (?).
I will take responsibility for the suite not being ready. I was letting folks come early so they could have the most beach time possible. We just ask that they park, not unload anything, and go over to the beach while we cleaned. Our check in is always 4 PM so we have the time to properly clean everything. Susan manages three houses and was busy with other properties and was not aware I had told you you could come early. I hope you will give us another chance to make your next Folly stay a FIVE STAR one!!
Warm Regards,
Janet Crouch

I was extremely pleased during my stay at the Folly Flamingo. The property looks exactly the same as the pictures on the internet.
The house was clean, comfortable and very accommodating. It's location is fabulous. A short walk to the beach, restaurants, beach shops and a small grocery store.
The beach is clean with smooth sand.
My sister and two neices visited for five days and during our stay we tried to decide when we would come back.
Absolutely Wonderful!

Owner's Response: Hello Cindy,
Thank you so much. Susan was certainly impressed with the young women. It is always a pleasure to have guests who show respect for your property and other people. I do hope you and your family and friends will return. In a world where values have certainly been challenged by the media and a lack of good parenting it is a wonderful experience to find some good old fashion folks who understand the golden rule as oppose to gold rules. I hope to meet you someday.

Fun At Folly

We stayed at the Folly Flamingo for a long Easter weekend. It was so nice, extremely convenient to everything and we enjoyed every minute there! The house is so cute and even though you are right in the middle of everything, there is a secluded feel to the place. Thank you Janet and Susan for everything and we will be coming back very soon!!
Owner's Response: Thank you Judi,
Hope you had a great reunion with old friends and made new Folly ones. We have some great restaurants, grills with cold drinks, lots of music, surf, sand, and Charleston is the icing. Close to all major highways and flyways. Come on over to our island, where we folly to the Atlantic beat.

Owner's Response: Thank you so much and hope you will return to see next year's addition of the Sandpiper Suite. This will be an extra bedroom with queen bed and bath to compliment either the Flamingo Suite (#124999) or the Sunburst Suite (#282641).

Thank you very much for allowing our family to stay in your lovely home. It truly was a "home away from home" but with quick access to the beach. We look forward to staying at Folly Flamingo.

My husband and I stayed at this house with a few friends, and this place completely exceeded our expectations!! This house is a true beach house that is beautifully decorated, clean, and extremely roomy. Folly Flamingo is perfectly located just steps from Bert's Market, the beach, and downtown. Although the house is located steps from everything, the serene garden and privacy fence make you feel like your miles away. Janet, the owner, was absolutely wonderful to work with and very accomodating. We will definitely stay here again for our next trip to Folly!!

Owner's Response: Hello Ashley,
Thank you so much. Next year will even be better since my winter plans are to add another outside shower for the Sunburst Suite plus a full bath for the Sandpiper. I will also replace the electric water heater with on demand hot water heaters so it will accommodate a party of eight (total guests for both sides). The house has been fun to redesign with its many possibilities, and I also enjoy the shade and colors of the flowering courtyard. Hope we will meet someday. Susan, the manager, told me she enjoyed you and your friends.
Thank You Again,
Janet

Love This Place !!

Property is within a stone throw from the beach , the pier , restaurants, pubs and everything happening on Folly. The only time I needed my car was to get to Charleston. I love the unique , fun and laid back design of this place. The courtyard garden and the general environment of this place keeps you in a state of calm and relax mode, that we needed for our getaway vacation. Love the free wireless , and the helpfulness and service of the owner . Sometimes, I forget, and think I was in the Keys~
I am planning to bring a group of my friends to stay there again this time. I hope to be there in August to share my experience with my closest friends;spend some time on the beach, and eat at the Lost Dog again. The shrimp and grits were to die for. Love this Place !! ~

We have stayed at Folly Flamingo 3 times over the past few years. It is very central to all of Folly, just a short stroll to the beach. The house has beautiful decor, and is unique & artsy. The owner has put a lot into decorating it. There is a huge deck with a grill to use, & a beautiful patio with flowers blooming. Its very private ,with a fenced in yard off the main street. The master bedroom is huge ,as well as the living area. The 2nd small room is perfect for a child. The kitchen is really big & plenty of pans,etc to use for cooking. There is even a washer & dryer. There is a store just a few doors down, if you need a last minute item. If you want a house rental , close to the beach, this a great choice.

Janet,
We enjoyed the southern hospitality from you and all we met. It was a long haul but worth every minute. Escaping the 12 degree weather in Michigan was the best. Loved the Fat Hen Restaurant on John's Island. We also found the lighthouse at the end of Folly delightful with few people, good shells, and a great picnic spot. The Flamingo Suite is charming, love the decor and colors. So quiet and relaxing.
Good luck to you and blessings,
Bob and Joan Kalamazoo, Michigan
