Thanks so much! I’m really glad you found the house cute and comfortable, and that the location worked well for your trip. You’re welcome back anytime.
Perfect seaside cottage! Ideal location (close to commercial area but blessedly quiet) and we loved that we could watch surfers from the rooftop deck AND view the marsh from the screened-in porch in the back. Communication with host was great. Definitely would stay here again!

Thank you so much for this! I’m really glad you enjoyed the cottage and the mix of being close to everything but still having that quiet spot to relax. The rooftop deck and the marsh porch are two of my favorite parts too, so it makes me happy to hear you got to enjoy both. I really appreciated how easy you were to communicate with as well. You’re welcome back anytime.
The cottage was perfect for my husband and I. It is so charming - the decor is beautiful. The screened in porch with the view of the marsh, and view of the ocean from the rooftop, were amazing. Kitchen was fully stocked, grill was perfect, and the beach chairs came in handy for a lazy beach afternoon.

Thank you so much for staying with us! We’re thrilled to hear the cottage was such a perfect fit for your trip. The décor, the marsh view from the screened‑in porch, and that ocean view from the rooftop really do make it a special spot, so it’s wonderful to know you enjoyed all of that.
I’m glad the kitchen, grill, and beach chairs came in handy too it sounds like you made the most of those lazy beach afternoons. We’d love to welcome you back the next time you’re on Folly.
Love this cottage for our group of 4! Bedrooms/bath are small but ample living space more than makes up for it! Easy access to the beach! Chef’s kiss!!
This is stay #2 for us and we will be back again next year. It is perfect because it feels like home.
Great rental for a small family or a couple of friends!

This place was the perfect location set just far enough from downtown for some peace and quiet with beautiful views all around. The back screened in porch offers the best place to relax and we hung out there almost as much as we did at the beach which was just across the road! Just be aware of high tide times :)

Great spot! Such a well maintained cottage. Kitchen and common areas are functional and spacious. Bedrooms are snug but comfortable. Perfect for a family of four for a few days of relaxation at the beach. Would definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed the views from the roof deck and hanging out reading on the screened in porch. It was cute and well decorated with just enough room for our family of 3. We loved being so close the the beach that we didn't have to plan every aspect of our day on the sand.

We had such an amazing time. Location was everything, we were right across from the beach, a short walk to the lighthouse and 25 minutes outside of Charleston. The house was very clean & beautifully decorated.

Washout Cottage was perfect. It was just what we needed. The perfect location on Folly Beach with wonderful views. Easy bike rides to either end of the Island. Our favorite spot was the back porch overlooking the Marsh. Highly recommend this spot,
The location is what brought us to this cottage, but the cottage itself is what will bring us back. Perfect intimate beach getaway with stunning sunrise and sunset views of ocean and back river area. Very unique to area. Well managed property with all the perks of being located in Folly Beach area .

The property was just as described in the listing. Settled in beautiful surroundings, clean and well-cared for. The property management company also did a fantastic job- they maintained communications throughout, but were never overbearing. We loved our stay and would definitely book again!

What a wonderful time we had! The cottage was perfect for my husband and myself. We loved the rooftop area and screened in porch. Most of our time, when not walking on the beach, was in one of these.
Check in and out was easy. The staff was friendly and helpful.
