Fantastic Stay!

We loved the house and the location. Plenty of room for our family for the week. Amenities are great and the full size w/d was key. The location is amazing. Steps to the beach, beautiful view and so much space for walks, fishing and playing with the dogs. Everyone we met was super friendly, too.

Incredible Experience!

Location! Location! Location! Surf Song Cottage feels like being at the end of the world yet minutes from anything I need at the same time. This place has great views and easy / private beach access. The cottage is in excellent condition with attention to detail for daily living at the beach (with dogs!). Communication with management company was thorough and helpful. We visited in the winter and it felt like living in a beachy novel. Beautiful experience. You would not be disappointed with a stay here.

Five straight days of watching the Sunrise over the Ocean was unbelievable.

Working vacation

My wife and I booked this place the last week of October for a change of scenery. We both work from home, so we can technically work from anywhere, so why not work from the beach? This house worked perfect for us. The views are great and the place is well stocked and well kept. Having owned a beach rental for years ourselves, we were impressed with the entire process and communication. We will be back.

Beach Front on Folly!

Myself and my husband just returned from an absolutely fantastic few days at Surf Song cottage located right on the beach. We brought our 2 little pups with us to see the ocean for the first time and the experience was just pure joy (sadly, they seem somewhat depressed after returning to Charlotte!). The cottage is absolutely adorable with a lovely cozy and modern interior and very well stocked with everything you need. I especially loved the kitchen where you can look out at the ocean while cooking. Our other favorite spot was on the front deck which has comfy seating, a large bbq and a world-class view over the ocean. We loved it so much, we booked another trip for next year before we left! A great little jewel box of a cottage in a fantastic and quiet part of Folly Beach. We can't wait to return.
