Overall a great stay. Just a short walk to the beach and lighthouse. The screened in porch was great. Plenty of extra blankets and towels. Could use a rug by the kitchen door so as not to track in sand, etc from outside we just put a beach towel near the door to wipe our feet on. Would stay at Katie’s Cottage again
The good:The location and size of the house were perfect! The house was clean
The bad: two screens in screened in porch were missing, the dishwasher didn't work well and there was a whirlybird attic ventilation unit on the roof that was making a tremendously loud screaming noise, I called the rental company and they said an HVAC tech was coming, not sure if that ever happened but is was irritating.
Cleanness was as expected, but there were a few (very few) noticeable things that anyone would easily overlook due to human error.
The location was perfect and far away from all the tourist and chaos, that comes with kids and summer vacation. I felt almost like we had our own private beach, but with just a few other families around. Which with 2 young 14 year old girls it was heaven sent… as a mother I very much wanted to just relax, and this little diamond in the rough was the perfect thing for me as a mom bringing 4 children to the beach. Need to remind you, we had 214 year-old girls one 14 year old boy, and my adult son who is 23 years old. So the bunk beds were fantastic and allowed for the boys to sleep in one room and the girls in the other.
The bunk beds mattresses were extremely comfortable based on the feedback from my children so that was a plus they all slept well. As for the larger room that my husband and I slept in, not as comfortable as the others, I would recommend replacing the mattress on that bed all together. It’s a bit worn out, and I would even recommend going to a queen size bed versus a full size bed. While we both slept reasonably OK, it’s still was a little difficult on certain nights to sleep with my husband because of his size. My husband is 6 foot one and about 240 pounds. To me, that’s an average male and he could’ve taken up the entire bed if I let him.
I can say that the location was perfect, without a doubt for us all.
We love being at the end of the beach, it’s quiet and feels like the perfect getaway spot here during of off-season stay. The house is the perfect size for us and we’d stay here again in a heartbeat. Folly beach and the town were even better than we expected - all mom and pop shops and a great relaxed island vibe.
Our stay was great, just what we needed for the occasion. My favorite part of the house was that you could be on the front porch and hear the ocean.
There were several minor things that needed attention. The screened porch screens were ripped partially off or completely out so we were not able to sit on the porch with our dog without him being able to go out the ripped screen on door. Another small problem was the full bed was very loose and could use tightening up or replacement all together. The room with the full bed was very cramped and not a lot of closet space but was okay for the few days we were there. The bunk rooms were perfect for my older children. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook. The shower was updated and had great water pressure.
If you possibly would like an early arrival be sure to request it early. When we went by the house it was clean and ready for our arrival but we just couldn’t get in. So ask early if there is even a possibility you may needed to get in early. One last thing, the house is very close to a beach access, but the beach at that access was very small and at high tide no beach. So if you are an all day beach goer you will need to explore other beach accesses. Over all our stay was great.
Communication with property owner and manager was good. There were problems with dishwasher not working but owner was very gratuitous. Hopefully the dishwasher will be fixed soon.
We first stayed in this house 7 years ago with family, and decided to come back on our own for our honeymoon. Not much has changed with the property in that time, which is both a positive and a bit of a negative.
Pros:
-Inside the home was clean.
-Very convenient access to the beach and the lighthouse trail.
-Lovely view from the back deck of the marsh, especially at sunset.
-Being towards the end of the street, the beach was less crowded.
-Important utilities/amenities such as the air conditioner and shower worked perfectly.
Cons:
-Some of the appliances seemed like they need to be replaced. Even after filling up the fridge, turning it to the coldest setting and waiting the initial 24-hour adjustment period, items inside didn't seem to be as cold as they should be. The washer and dryer, which are located below the house in a room that is not weather-sealed, were covered in rust.
-We didn't feel comfortable sitting on most of the outdoor furniture. The metal tables and chairs were rusty and chipping. The cushions on the screened in porch were stained. These items should be replaced.
-The outside was visibly dingy in areas - it could use some cleaning/fresh paint.
-This wasn't a problem for us this time since there were only two of us, but previously when we stayed, five people sharing one bathroom was tough.
We enjoyed our stay at Katie's Cottage very much. The location for a family with small children was perfect: free from the noise of Folly's main strip, and less crowds on the beach, even for Memorial Day weekend.
The yard was good for our dog, too.
The house is cozy and great atmosphere/tastefully decorated. It was clean and belongings are mostly well kept and everything we needed for our stay. As with most rentals there were minor issues, like a sticky non-stick pan. For our first visit to Folly Beach, we couldn't have had it better. We will definitely be back.
Love the location. Right across the street from beach access at northern most end of the island. House was perfect. Loved the sceeen in porch. Would come back again for sure.

The property was clean on the inside and comfortable but needs sprucing up. The exterior really needs cleaning and looks very tired. Convenient to the beach which is lovely and there where some beautiful sunsets over the marsh.
