Great unit with location.
Nice unit with a good view of the waterway. We had 3 couples and 3 baths was a plus. Kitchen was lacking in utensils ie pots, pans, cups etc. Luckily we brought a big pot for our low country boil.

Great place and location
The location is great and the property is great to with the dock and marina area. Close to everything in town and the beach. Rooms need a bit of updating but clean. Cool place.

Location is great, 10 minute walk to restaurants and beach which is great, but the condo really needs to be cleaned the carpet was so dirty with stains everywhere and the furniture that was in living room needs cleaned or replaced, with that being said the beds were clean and very comfortable and condo was very spacious.

Great location
Great location really near the beach and restaurants. The house was as described on the website, and nicer than the photos make it look. Very comfortable and easy, with lovely views over the river and access onto the fishing jetty. Pool is good too.

Great Location
We have rented other units in this complex in this past. This particular unit was not nearly as nice/up to date or well appointed as the others, though the cost was the same. There are some much needed updates. It rained a lot while we were there and water was pouring into the screened porch due to some poor/old caulking. The master bathroom sink did not drain very well (also noted in a previous review). The kitchen is lacking in cookware, etc. and overall the furnishings need an update-the table and chairs shown in the picture on the porch do not exist. One major necessity that is missing is a hose for the outdoor faucet, making it impossible to clean sand off of anything (or person). The location is great, though, which is why we rented it. The views are outstanding as well. With a little TLC, it could be 5 star all around.

Location is great
Location is great and it was nice to have pool access but I wouldn’t stay here again. Disappointed in the cleanliness. Carpets were terribly stained, beds were awful, AC had to be set on 72 so we were hot, and deck furniture was broken and deck was so dirty. For the amount of money spent it honestly seems disrespectful to us who are paying so much money for minor fixes and home keep up of the homeowners.

Needs a Complete Update
Positives: - The view Negatives: No blow dryer, no hangers, light bulbs were out in hallway, outside front door, bathroom(upstairs). Huge stain on the downstairs bedroom carpet. Covered by a rug, but I kept tripping over it, so I stored it in the closet until checkout. Upstairs bathroom sink in Master Bedroom was slow to drain; Downstairs bathroom, shower door came off the track. Furniture worn, especially the kitchen stools. Expensive for what you are getting. There are so many other places that look better for the price. We would not rent this townhouse again.

Slightly Disappointing
This is our second year staying at the property. I guess I thought things I like broken patio furniture would be replaced after a year but it wasn’t. Fan and light in upstairs guest room were not functioning so my kids had a hard time falling asleep. The blinds were also broken in that room and the broken piece was just laying there. The property was somewhat clean but we found hair in the tubs and the carpet is terribly stained. I couldn’t use the tub downstairs or in the upstairs guest room to bathe my children because they did not have a way to stop the drain. We also found trash under the master bed that wasn’t from us. The location is perfect and generally it’s an okay place to stay. It’s just disappointing to see minor things they do not do to attempt to improve the cleanliness and function of the house. The hand towel holder fell off and hit my son in the head.

Nice place, great river views
Nice place, wonderful views. Not the most well equipped place we've stayed. Kitchen could use more pans (cookie sheet, Muffin tin, Scissors) Beds are memory foam just as an FYI. Overall a nice stay for a few days. Close to all the folly restaurants which are about half a mile away. Would be easily walkable in good weather.

Thank you
Thank you for the use of your condo. We found a few things that might need your attention. 1. The shower head in the master bath leaked. When we turned it on water would go everywhere even when the door was closed. Dripping from the ceiling and all over the counter. 2. The fan in the other upstairs bedroom was making a lot of noise so it was not used. 3. The shower door in the downstairs bathroom kept falling off the track. Thank you again for letting us stay.

Worked well for us
We enjoyed our stay here overall. Close to the beach and shops. Clean. Beautiful location and good instructions. A couple things to note: Our check in was slightly delayed as they were still cleaning when we arrived on time. The porch furniture upstairs has definitely seen better days. Bring your own beach towels and extra bath towels if you feel like you’ll need them as they only provide 1 bath towel and 1 face cloth per guest. Fine for us since we were only there for a weekend.

Great location and lovely townhome
Upon our arrival we did have an AC issue (none) but a quick call to the owner and it was repaired that day, so when we returned the townhome was a cool 72 and stayed at that temp, very comfortable. This was the first time staying in a VRBO property so my comments may be normal for these properties. The most inconvenient thing was that each guest received one towel and one washcloth for the entire week! Granted we had a W/D available but who wants to have wash to so often, plus no towel for our hair. We brought laundry soap and p. towels and toilet paper and cleaning products and disinfectants BUT we did not bring towels, 9except our beach towels). 5 women and one towel apiece, it was humorous! we said, Thankfully, Costo is close! So a heads up, if you like a hair towel and a body towel, bring your own. Also the seat in the chair on the top deck was completely thru and unable to be sat on, its know its tough to maintain outdoor furniture in the salt air, so we all sat on the screen porch. Our nieghbor was a cigar affecieando and enjoyed his cigars (for hours) on his screen porch which made ours unihaitable but once we delicately mentioned it to him (very nice owners next door) he gave us our screen porch sitting time too). All in all from the owners friendly support and the neighbors friendliness and kindness and knowing we need to bring our own towels (other than beach towels) we all think it was wonderful and we would stay there again. You simply cannot get the sunset views over the river like here. Oh We also liked being able to walk to town and enjoy all the shops and restaurants, we did drive to the park at the south end of Folly and that is the most delightful park, simply beautiful and was not crowded at all when we were there.

Adult family vacation
Overall the property was really nice. The ice maker in the fridge was hit or miss for working but that didn't really matter. The shower in the upstairs quest bathroom would spray the wall and ceiling if you tried to adjust it and the water pressure wasn't real strong but still able to shower. Overall though the place was really nice, the views off the patios was spectacular if peaceful is what your looking for. The bed in the master bedroom was so comfortable if you like soft mattresses. In general we had a very nice vacation and the house was a nice place to stay and would recommend to anyone.

What a great place to rent for the week with my family! Everything about our vacation was great. We loved the location of the townhome (close to town & beach) & the amenities. I would highly recommend renting a golf cart, it just makes getting around Folly easier. The only issue we had was the mattress in master bedroom, it’s super soft & we’re used to a firm mattress.

Needs Work
Although this was in a convenient location to downtown and beautiful view of the inner coastal area, the condo itself is in need of cleaning, updating and work. Don't sleep in master bedroom - bed is horribly uncomfortable and the air-conditioning unit is horribly loud outside of this bedroom. The carpets are horribly stained. The balcony and living room furniture is very uncomfortable and the wicker chair is about to break through. Big hole in bottom. If someone bigger than us had sat there, the person would have fallen through to the floor. The hardwood floors were filthy. If you don't need the master bed, the other beds were fairly comfortable. No hangers or soap. You need to wash your sheets before leaving. No bikes or beach chairs. I have stayed at many VRBOs, and this one was the lowest quality. Maybe this is what you get in Folly Beach.

This is a beautiful property with a really beautiful view. The kitchen was well stocked as far as dishes and pots/pans. It was nice to have 3 bathrooms for the 3 bedrooms. The pool and dock are nice too! The only negatives were the mattress in the master was too soft and had a really thick memory foam topper that made it way too soft. And the lock on the downstairs bathroom door got stuck (the handle is loose), and we got locked in twice. But I would definitely stay here again!
