Loved the property and location! The deck and porches are the best. Ease to the beach and the fact that it was not too crowded by us adds to property . The twin beds could use replacing or a good mattress cover. But the awesome deck, location, and privacy of the super charming house more than made up for it.

Cottage stay

808 ashley embodies a true cottage on Folly vibe. Close to the water with views of the marsh was spectacular to enjoy for beach days and plentiful hangs on the porch. Sufficient linens and amenities and space! A bit dated appliances and it’s an old cottage but lovely no-frills vibe.

A beach house with character

What a lovely place! Clean and comfortable. Easy walk to the beach. I loved the family photos and letter about the history of the house. You can feel the good vibes. It’s an older beach house but I felt totally at ease there. Loved the kitchen table and view of the marsh from the back deck. It did not come furnished with beach chairs or a hair dryer, so be aware of that if those things are needed. Would stay here again!

Great spot and lovely home!

The beach was such a close walk from the house, it was easy to haul our stuff there without taking a car. The house was clean and ready for us upon arrival. Minutes from Folly bars and restaurants if you want to take advantage of that. Would stay here next time if we come to play at Folly again!

Nice stay on Folly

The stay was nice. The location is great for access to the beach. The property was a little smaller than we anticipated, but we made good use of the outdoor space to be able to hang out after the kids went to sleep. The property stayed cool which was so refreshing after a day in the sun. No beach towels so make sure you bring them!

Perfect beach house!

The house was amazing. Felt like a real beach house and not a newly built rental property. It had character and was such a great home away from home. The outdoor shower was amazing and we loved how the public beach access is literally right outside our front door. Would 10/10 recommend and absolutely plan to rent again!!

Excellent Spot!

This location was perfect for going to the beach! The porch was excellent for outside gatherings, and the outdoor shower was helpful when coming/going to the beach. The beds were incredibly comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with gadgets (drip coffee maker, blender, toaster, microwave, etc). The natural lighting made us feel like we were in a Nicholas Sparks movie. I would highly recommend this rental!

Family Vacation

Location location location. Literally a 5 minute walk to the beach! Back balcony perfect to relax on after a day at the beach. It is a little bit of a walk to restaurants in town but nice that you don’t hear all the noise from the bars. Dog friendly and at a reasonable price. We were able to walk our dog on the beach every morning and he would not want to leave the back balcony. Love that they made entry code something that was easy to remember. Also a quick 25min drive into Charleston. Only complaint is the furniture in the living room could be updated but we hardly use it that area. Only in there during the one day that it rained. Really perfect spot if you enjoy the beach and love traveling with your dog.

A Perfect 10

Loved the house, loved the location and loved the stay. I especially liked the nod to the family’s heritage and history through the art work and photos. The property had character and everything needed for a comfortable stay. It was a quiet neighborhood with a short walk to the beach easy for our 4 & 5 year olds. There were fresh flowers on the table when we arrived that made for a very nice welcome. I would definitely book this property again.

Grandma's Cozy Costal Crib

Charming, older home with a beachy vibe. The kitchen gives you the feeling of being at grandma's . Loved the view from all the windows, the sloping floors and all the decor that helped us appreciate the obvious nostalgia the owner feels for this home. House was clean and well stocked and the location is perfect! The only suggestions I could make would be to upgrade to a Keurig coffee maker and provide tissues.
