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. This home truly has it all, unbelievable views of the South Carolina Lowcountry while providing all the modern comforts of home.

Room on the rear of the house has private deck access with expansive Folly River views.

Flat-screen TV with DVD player and plenty of games will entertain the entire family on a rainy day. 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.

The second floor includes a loft with a futon for an additional lounging area. From there, you can step out onto the brand new balcony that overlooks the ocean with beautiful beach views. The third full bathroom with a roomy walk-in shower is accessible from the loft area.

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.

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!

Beautiful Property

This property was exactly as described in the booking process. the view off of the back is marshland and the city of Charleston, off of the front you can see the ocean just past one home. The home was very up to date, clean and well stocked. The porches and stairs were very nice and secure (which was important due to us having children). Beach access was just a short walk, the area was very nice and quaint. Town is only 2.5 miles away and you can rent a golf cart and drive back and forth making parking much easier. We couldn's have asked for a better place to stay in Folly.

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.

College Friends for Life

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.

Location fabulous but...

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.

Great week at the beach!

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!

Wonderful family vacation at Marsh Madness!

Wonderful 10 day stay at Marsh Madness. House was exactly as described…well stocked kitchen…all the appliances and cooking utensils needed for preparing most of our meals. The house was situated well away from the center of Folly Beach so it was very quiet at night. We rented a golf cart to drive to the Washout and go to the center of town when needed. The other beach access is very close…less than a 10 minute walk. Because of the house’s location the beach was very quiet during the day with lots of space. About the only thing I would fuss about was the lack of bath mats….definitely needed. I would recommend renting Marsh Madness!
