Welcome to Marsh Madness! This spectacular, 2nd row home boosts stunning ocean, river and marsh views. This classic beach cottage is located directly across the street from the beach where you will enjoy easy beach access just steps away from The Washout, South Carolina's famous surfing hot spot.

Separating the living area from the kitchen is the perfect 'game' table with beautiful retro chandelier.
The eat-in kitchen has plenty of room for the entire family to hang out while dinner is prepared. Imagine gathering for dinner with the South Carolina sunset in the background or breakfast as the sunlight graces the marsh starting your day on Folly Beach. Plenty of seating at the table and access to the rear deck will make the kitchen a popular place to spend time with friends and family. The owners have provided all the needed essentials even the most discerning chef would need.

We had a great time staying at Marsh Madness. Plenty of room for six adults and our 16 month old grandson. Place was clean, close to the beach, and everything you need for your stay.
Sparkling clean with a lot of space. Great views of marsh out back with vivid sunsets. Could see a bit of beach and ocean out the front, close walk to beach. Very pleased with this property.
Marsh Madness was a great vacation spot for our family of 7 adults. Beautiful marsh views, easy walk to the beach, very clean, great kitchen and plenty of space for everyone
Lovely home wish it had a gas grill outdoors and a fire pit. Very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked only thing missing was better use of area under the house for relaxing.
Group of friends for 50 years enjoyed a long weekend at Marsh Madness. House was well laid out with everything we needed for our stay. Beautiful views of sunset across the marsh. We didn’t cook so can’t speak to pots and pans but we did hire a private chef one night and there was plenty of room. Loved the location and the house.
We loved the view of the marsh from the kitchen table. We spent most of our time there.
The home is beautifully decorated and comfortable with an abundance of space.
We were disappointed in the cleanliness of the kitchen dishes, silverware, pots and pans. Since there wasn't anything available to clean them, SOS pads etc., so I am not surprised but disappointed. There were food solids on multiple pans and pots. And both electric and manual can openers were black with solids I went out the second day and bought two pans so I could at least cook some of what I brought with us.
We made an assumption that 4 BR/4Bath would give each of us a full bathroom. We were mistaken and had to share a bathroom. Not prefered.
General suggestions:
-List of what can be recycled
-Info on how to use the TV with multiple remotes
Thank you for sharing your home with us.
Fun family vacation spot. Home is in excellent condition and plenty of room for entertaining. Great place to watch the sunsets over the Marsh in the evening.
Marsh Madness was our favorite beach rental in the Charleston area after 5 separate visits. The property is spacious, clean, and has amazing marsh views. Beach access is just down the street. We also rented a golf cart from Folly Beach Rentals, which made our vacation even more fun. Folly beach is our paradise. We hope to stay at this property again next year.
Loved the location and layout of this house! Beautiful sunset views over the marsh with close beach access. Perfect home for a family vacation with little ones.
I cannot say enough good things about this property. It is just as beautiful as it looks in the pictures. Very clean. Quiet street. Both close enough and far enough away from the city. We truly loved our stay and hope to come back sometime!
The house was great, clean, spacious, comfortable with a well appointed kitchen. The marsh views were beautiful and we had many spectacular sunsets. Easy to get to the beach. Nice house. We would stay there again.
The sunsets were amazing and the space was great. We all agreed that it would be a place we would return with our own extended families because the house has enough space to all hang out together.

Thanksgiving Week
My family and I absolutely love this beach house. We spent Thanksgiving Week here with additional family and friends and absolutely loved it. The floor plan is great for multiple families, and the sunsets are great from the back. This was our second time renting this beach house, and it won't be the last. Highly recommend.

Fantastic family vacation spot!
Marsh Madness was a perfect place for our family of eight! The house was tastefully done and well maintained, and the large kitchen table was great for family dinners! A smaller table was great for games! Our only wish was that the house had access to the marsh for paddle boating or fishing! We would definitely choose Marsh Madness again!
We loved the views of the marsh from the kitchen, dining room and deck. We ate breakfast on the deck every morning. The sunsets are beautiful. The house feels very roomy, all the bedrooms are a nice size and it is in very good condition. The extra bathroom upstairs came in handy too. This is my favorite location at Folly.
The house was perfect for our large family. It’s more spacious in person which was nice for our large group. I would recommend a golf cart if you have young children going to and from
The beach as the access is a little bit of a walk but fine for adults. Kitchen was fully equipped and the marsh views and sunsets are amazing!
Marsh Madness - the photos don’t do it justice! Our party was 8 adults and we had plenty of room to eat together, play games together and simply hang out. Easy beach access is .1 mile away. We loved watching the marsh wildlife and how it changed with the tides. We will definitely come back!

Perfect!
Marsh madness was the perfect house! We had a group stay there for the week leading up to a wedding- on the more remote part of folly, so no issue getting to/finding a place to lay on the beach, beautiful house, well kept, very spacious!! It was everything we needed and more! Plus the back porch was a prime time spot for sunset happy hour! Would recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in folly!
