Our Stay at Island Girl

We enjoyed out stay and the property is exactly as listed. We were close to everything of interest to us and the beach access is a short 1 1/2 block walk. This place is neither overdone or underdone, it was perfect for our purposes. We were also pleased with the ease of communication with the owner.

Great little cottage for my family!

We really enjoyed our stay there at the Island Girl cottage. The location could not be more perfect. It was fully stocked with extra towels and pillows. The initial check in was little unclear at first but the owner reached out to me by phone to ensure we got in ok, which I thought was great!

delightful

comfortable, well-appointed and equipped, conveniently located, all around great. One caveat: not for those with mobility issues--steep steps to 2nd floor bedrooms and some steps up and down in living area.

House was like a frat house

The house was very old and the floors are not even and mini steps that we tripped over several times. The back yard was black dirt where we had to wash off when coming in from the beach and tracked in the house. I sweeped floor every day of course. It may be good for younger folks. But was not for us.

Great location but house needs a good cleaning and maintenance.

The location is the best part of this home. It is walkable to the beach and restaurants. House was quite dirty. The floors turned our feet and socks brown. The couch had broken down cushions. Mattresses were in bad shape. Many dishes were dirty and the handle to the fridge was broke off. It is such a great location but I would not stay here again unless it had some TLC.

IG stay

The pictures and the real thing were different. The lower porch was totally unusable. Granted, it had rained but with all the trees, that porch never dried enough to use it and the top one was overgrown with the trees and both needed power washed really bad as did the rest of the house. The pictures of the steps in the back were obviously taken just after the steps were built. The cleaning crew missed a lot by not moving furniture. Dressers had broken drawers. The carpets need cleaned or just ripped out. It was furnished with everything we needed inside as far as the kitchen, plenty of sitting room in the living room and table and chairs to play cards or games on. It was a good spot for the beach tho, not too far and an easy walk. It isn't too far from the stores either. It was a safe neighborhood. It just needs a really good cleaning and fresh paint and it'll be a nice house. Also, lots of steps in the house, definitely not for anyone handicapped. The outside shower needs a new deck on it. One of the couples said that their mattress would make them roll to the middle of the bed and the couch needed cleaned or recovered. Toilet seats were all loose and the beach chairs were rusted out and not usable. Washer and dryer worked great.

great beach getaway

Island Girl was great. Perfect 2-minute walk to the beach. The only thing that I suggest is adding more beach towels. Listing says plenty, but there were only 2. When traveling via plane, it was nice not to have to bring them, but disappointed when there were not enough. besides that, great little cottage to relax at the beach.

Family fall vacation

We had a great family vacation. Kitchen well stocked with various sized cookware. Entryway room was amazing for storing our things and leaving our shoes in so we didn't have sand in the whole house! Beds were comfortable! Hosts were very responsive. We would definitely stay here again!

We are in love with Island Girl!!

Such a great time!! We stayed for ten days and found nothing wanting. The cottage has everything we needed to enjoy breakfast on the deck and days at the beach. Check in was so simple and the property manager answered all questions within minutes of us asking them. The cottage is clean, roomy and just plain old fun!! Just a two block walk to the beach and 5 blocks to downtown. Loved the bo-ho style of the area, the great food at all the restaurants, and the cheery dispositions of all the employees. We ate dinner at one of the restaurants every night and enjoyed them all. Couldn't pick a favorite because all the menus were different and each place had it's own vibe. We have future plans to return to Folly Beach and Island Girl. We definitely recommend that others pick this house for a memorable vacation.

Lovely Place

The Island Girl was perfect for a week away with my husband and 6 year old. Well stocked, very clean, great backyard, superb location. Owner was very responsive. Only downside is, it’s not quiet. It’s a busy street and you can hear everything. The price to pay for fantastic location! Would recommend and would visit again!

Island girl getaway

We had a fantastic girls weekend at the island girl . We loved the relax atmosphere of Folly Beach and the short walk to the beach . It was an easy drive into Charleston for sight seeing and then returned to enjoy a laid back dinner in Folly. The owner was quick to respond with any questions and issues we had. We would definitely visit again

Charmingly perfect

Island Girl is a great little house with loads of character. Easy access to the beach as well as shops and restaurants. 3 bedrooms, king, queen and twin beds. Ore windows then I could count allowing for plenty of light. Beds are reasonably comfortable, towels in every room. Kitchen has all the amenities from blue ray player to a Nintendo Wii Kitchen is stocked with all the essentials and any utensils you may need, it even has a Kureg. The upstairs balcony was my favorite, The downstairs screened in patio needs a few repairs. I recommend bringing some air freshener as the upstairs bathroom and the twin bed bedroom closet smells of urine but thankfully doesn’t travel through the whole house. Lots of little touches that show the owners really care about your vacation experience. Hopefully we’ll be able to return soon. Would recommend to anyone

AMAZING!!!

My family and I had the perfect trip, every thing about The Island Girl was amazing. Every detail was thought of from beach towels to a fully stocked kitchen, we were not left without a thing. For us the location might have been the best part, a 2 minute walk from the beach(1 block) and a short drive from restaurants and shops. The island girl is the perfect fit for a family vacation, we would definitely stay again!
