Folly Beach Christmas

Our family had an amazing time spending our Christmas at Folly Beach. The house had lots of space for our party of 7 and was in an amazing location close to the beach and was walkable to downtown. The house was very clean and comfortable with all the amenities. The host Lynn was a very responsive host and answered all our questions. I would highly recommend this beach house and our family hopes to return again one day in the future.

A perfect place for a family to stay and enjoy the best of the beach and all Folly Beach has to offer. Steps away from a great beach that doesn't get too crowded.

Beach vacation

This house is fantastic! Everything is so walkable & with 5 of us, there was plenty of space. This house has everything you need for a beach vacation - chairs, cooler, tents, games, surf board, boogie boards, and a beach wagon. Restaurants & shops a short walk away. We will be back!!

Great house

This house was perfect for us, we have 2 small babies so being able to walk back and forth from the house to the beach was so convenient. We loved sitting on the porch and watch the ocean as we drank our coffee every morning. The house was so comfortable for our family, we had an amazing time. It was hot so the walk downtown was a little uncomfortable but we did it with several small children and it was doable. Would highly recommended this house for anyone looking for a nice beach vacation

Amazing!

We loved our stay! The location was spectacular, close to restaurants/bars, Bert’s market, tennis/picklball/basketball courts, and the beach. This prime location is in a quiet residential part of the island. The listing description is accurate. We hope to visit again.
