Overall great trip
There were a couple glitches at the start due to policies not being clear in the description such as the pet policy and no5 being able to use the elevator but...Dunes responded quickly and it was dealt with to our satisfaction. The house was very clean, comfortable beds, great kitchen and fantastic marsh views from the back porch.

Great Beach House
Perfect location away from the center of town and a short walk to beach access. There is a beach view from the large front deck to watch the surfers and sunrise. Large open floor plan with plenty of seating areas. Kitchen was well equipped (we cooked most of our meals) with lots of counter space. Master bedroom was off the back with large bathroom - double sinks, large walk in shower and huge closet. The other two bedrooms were off the living space. Second bedroom has on suite bathroom with walk in shower. Third bedroom and bath were joined with pocket door. Elevator was a nice amenity to haul up groceries and luggage. Outdoor furniture was a bit worn and the umbrella was missing the piece to hold it up but all in all this was a great place for a beach vacation. We will return.

Fall at Folly
Enjoyed our time at Folly. Loved the location being so close to the beach. Our dogs enjoyed the fenced in back yard to play and run around in.
