About the Owners:
Owners, Rad and Joyce Finch, from Iowa have six adult children and 12 grandkids ages 1 year to age 19. Joyce's annual Folly Beach tradition began in July 1968. Only the year of Hurricane Hugo kept her away. Purchasing this special home in 2015 made it possible to share the Folly experience and joy with many other families. We hope our guests feel like part of our family every time they stay in Mermaid Memories at our favorite place - Folly Beach! We are indeed thankful and blessed!

Please be advised that this property may be impacted by a beach sand renourishment project expected to take place March - September 2024. Temporary disruptions and/or beach closures could occur. The property management company is not responsible for any beach disruptions caused by the renourishment. Please contact us or the City of Folly Beach if you would like more information. We will do our best to keep you informed of any closures and alternative access points. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation during this time.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay! House was close to everything we needed and it was the perfect spot on the beach. We rode bikes to breakfast each morning and thoroughly enjoyed the house..especially the sunroom! Already planning to go back!

Perfect Family vacation!
Staying at Mermaid memories was such a joy. The back porch and view of the ocean was breathtaking. We enjoyed every moment of our stay. Getting to walk right down to the beach each morning with our three kids was priceless. The house was clean and comfortable and very homey. We cooked in the kitchen each night of our stay and it was so easy ! We found shark teeth and hermit crabs on the beach and enjoyed the tide going in and out each day. We very much look forward to staying at Mermaid memories again !
