One of THE best vacation experiences of our lives.

Review Submitted: July 22, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
When we walked in, everyone in our family, from the 3 1/2 year old to the most senior of the group was entranced by this home and that is what it felt like. Every effort is made to make this home a fun, beachy, relaxing, getaway. We found, because of the kindness of our hostess, we didn't need to bring as much 'stuff' as we did, as soon as you walk into the door, there are items provided that make you feel as if the owner knows exactly what everyone could use on vacation and at the beach. In the hallway entrance, wonderful pictures and beach toys that put you right into the vacation mood, each bedroom was perfect for us, the one with the daybed and trundle for the little ones, the master for my husband and I and the 1st bedroom which had a wonderful bedspread and comfortable bed. And 3 bathrooms Each bedroom had books and magazines, having the computer and wireless was a total bonus as were the fans. This place feels so BIG, the layout is wonderful, the furnishings are so comfortable, the kitchen had everything from pots, pans, dishware and glasses to a blender, slow cooker, coffeemaker, toaster and any other appliance you may need. You know how sometimes you want to get out of your hotel room? Well all of us couldn't wait to get back to the condor --> (that's what the little one called it) because it was so wonderful. The property is very clean, the parking space under the building is a + in case of rain, the carts to help you get your belongings up to the room, the elevator and the pool were perfect. We could tell there were full time owner residents there but we were treated warmly by everyone and smiles were shared a lot. My Grandson fished from the docks and caught a fish on his Spiderman fishing pole and every am my husband and I would take our coffee out onto the screened balcony overlooking the river and listen to the tide coming in and the tackle on the boats clinking in the breeze... the air conditioner kept the whole house very cool, we totally appreciated the washer and dryer and the beach cart is a LIFESAVER. While you do have to walk over the river and through Folly to get to the beach (we actually drove and parked at the pier) if we hadn't had the little ones we would have walked daily. We spent 6 days and each day we found a new treasure in the house - from a wonderful picture (sit on the end of the sofa nearest the window and look into the porthole mirror for a surprise) to a grouping of shells to the fairy lights in the plants
Owner's Response: We're so lucky to have generous and caring guests like the Becca and family. Your words make me want to go stay there and hunt for the "surprise picture in the porthole"!! Thank you for being such lovely guests, and COME BACK!

Very Nice!

Review Submitted: June 29, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
The accomodations are wonderful and as advertised. Eight of us were comfortable (two boys slept on the sofa and floor air mattress part of the week). The space is beautifully decorated with sea shells and plants and colorful things and knick-knacks. We had grandparents, parents, three teenagers, and an 11 year old.

Kitchen has everything needed. Three nice bedrooms. Three nice bathrooms.

The neighbors are quiet.

We saw dolphins in the channel and once in the tidal pond off the back porch.

The owner was available and responsive to a couple of small questions.

A very small child might find the many touchable objects in the space very tempting.

Folly Beach is interesting. The walk to the actual beach is over a short bridge and then about four blocks. Several interesting restaurants and bars and churches along the way. The beach and ocean is nice. Taco Boy is good. The Lost Dog is good but packed. Check out the Folly Beach website. Two grocery stores and WalMart and Lowes are within two to four miles in the opposite direction.

Owner's Response: So glad it was all you'd hoped for and more! We try to bring the beach into our home.....thanks for letting us know!

FANTASTIC :)

Review Submitted: June 9, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
My sons and I stayed here in May of 2009 and it was wonderful. The condo is just like the pictures and more! Everything was clean and comfortable. Andi must've had a blast decorating with all the island decor...we just loved it! I had to contact Andi several times before the trip (and once during it regarding a package we were expecting) and she was always very helpful!! There were no surprises. Take a look at the information book on the coffee table when you get there.
The Stray Dog is a nice place for your morning coffee and Taco Boy is fun and their margaritas aren't bad :)

Owner's Response: Thanks you, Julli, Donny and Sam! We love giving "local life" tips to our guests....please come again!

Absolutely loved it!

------- Clemson, SC
Review Submitted: May 19, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
The pictures do not do this condo justice. From the moment we walked in, I knew we were going to love it. Beautifully decorated, comfortable with ample room, near the beach, clean, all the amenities you could ask for; beach towels, fully equipped kitchen, movies, sheets, extra blankets...... We have stayed in many beach rentals over many years and I can honestly say this is one we will seek out in the future for stays at Folly! We were there for our twins graduation from the College of Charleston; my husband, myself, our daughter, her boyfriend, the twins grandmother, and Uncle, and all the visitors while we were there. There was ample room and it always felt like home away from home. Thank you!!!!
Owner's Response: When we hear feedback like this, it makes our efforts SO worthwhile, and touches our spirits. Thank you for letting us smile with you.

Relaxing and interesting getaway

Dee7 Greensboro, NC
Review Submitted: March 24, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
This is a beautifully decorated condo, with many conveniences of home. Its well maintained and very clean. The information provided at time of renting is complete and informative. I didn't have to read between the lines to understand the expectations of using this property. I took my teenage daughters and friends to Charleston/Folly Beach and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Located within walking distance of the beach, but parking available if we drove. Convenient drive to many sightseeing opportunities in the Charleston area. Enjoyed early morning walks on the beach while the kids slept...very relaxing. I will absolutely recommend this to my friends!
Owner's Response: Thanks so much to my valued guest for coming to our beach getaway. We appreciate you.

Beach Getaway

mike7 Greenville, SC
Review Submitted: September 23, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
We had a great time. This condo was beautifully decorated. Very clean and well equipped. They had every imaginable item that would be needed for a great vacation. Near the beach, enjoyed crabbing off the pier and trips around the Charleston area. The condo was very convenient for sightseeing. A trip to the Morris Island lighthouse is a must. Great place to see Charleston. 82 Queen and Hymans are great restaurants to visit. Will plan on going there again. Owners had great customer service.
Owner's Response: ...when our guests have a great time, it makes our day! We love to hear it!

folly river condo

Ms H Alexandria, Mn
Review Submitted: March 18, 2008 Date of Stay: March 2008
Excellent location with easy access to town center and a quick jaunt to the beach. Walking distance to a variety of cafes. Beds are comfy, kitchen well equipped, and the decor was very "beachy." We'd do it again! Renting bikes for touring the town and the beach added to the fun.
Owner's Response: Terrific guests make it even more fun to help them find the best to do, and a fun place to stay! Thank you!

Review Submitted: January 30, 2008 Date of Stay: January 2008
Everything was perfect for my friends and me. The condo was great and cozy. We really enjoyed ourselves. In fact, we spent most of our time in the condo watching movies and relaxing. It was perfect. Also, Andi, the owner, was extremely nice and very accomodating--we definitely plan on renting from her again!
Owner's Response: It's always great to know that we were a part of someone's happy times and "beach getaway"!

Folley Beach was awesome!!!

Bailie Charlotte, NC
Review Submitted: December 18, 2007 Date of Stay: September 2007
The owners of this property made our getaway as simple as possible. The instructions that they gave were well laid out and easy to follow. The property was very clean with all the amenities from home (tv, dvd, computer, all the kitchen supplies you need). The location to the beach was convenient (2 minutes by car). Best vacation we've had with our two kids (ages 3 and 5)!!
Owner's Response: Wonderful guests such as yourselves MAKE the vacation!
Many thanks for your kindness and we hope to see you again!
