Quaint beach getaway
We have stayed at Sho Rest many times and will continue to visit. Best area and quiet. We love it. The screened in porch and walkway stepping onto the beach is wonderful for the kids. We will be back!

We love this house & location. It is 10 blocks to the pier. The screened in orch and deck literally on the beach is fantastic. We have stayed several times and are booked for the Spring! Only if you are a cook bring your fav things.

Second stay, just as quintessential. Favorite feature: The enclosed porch and the deck it leads to. This stretch of beach is special... never know what you're gonna find :) Mgmt is subpar, FYI.

Getting thru to Vacasa was 1.5
If the lights were on at night in the house, large flying ants would come through the air conditioning units and cover you up at night. They did come spray but there was no control but to keep the lights off.

Lack of response
I sent a few questions through email within the week before our stay and never got responses to my questions until the day we checked out. Additionally, when we booked our stay we asked for an early check-in (just one hour before the scheduled check-in of 4pm) and never heard a word in response. We drove past the rental an hour before (3pm) and no one was there-no cleaners of anyone else) but they never responded to our request, which they easily could have accommodated. We did not go in early as we felt we had not been given permission to do so but it seems that it would have been painless for them to have allowed us to do so.

Stunning Location!
Such a cute place. Cabin feel on the inside, paradise on the outside. Watched surfers and loved finding all the sea shells in the morning. Walked a mile on the beach to the pier restaurant. Perfect little supermarket just a mile away that has a little bit of everything (beer, groceries, and more). Folly Beach is a great location. Appreciated the book with suggested places to visit. If you take little ones be mindful that the walls in the bedrooms do not go all the way up to the ceiling (in case you need a quiet space). Lots of seating around the house. The beach is nice. Public access on the side of the house. Those who manage this property were quick to responses and very helpful when we checked in. Loved: all the utensils and fun plates painted by kids, nice stock of towels, rocking chairs on the porch facing the ocean, outdoor shower under the deck (even has hot water), puzzles to do at night-we dominated these, comfy beds and pictures of your family on the walls that have enjoyed the place since the 70's. Didn't care for: Showers in the house are small (I couldn't lift my elbow up all the way and I'm 5'3) and large ants came crawling out of the hot and cold knobs that are not caulked in one of the bathrooms so the handles rattle around. There are some open gaps to the outside that I had to close up (in the bedroom window where the air conditioner sits and the door in the bathroom that goes to the outside has about a 2" gap from floor-there was a cold draft and lizards that I didn't want inside).

Loved the beach front. The plywood should be changed as the ceiling due to the bedding felt like it had moisture. Great experience overall! Will book again.

Great stay!
This house was perfect. Ideal for 2 people, but okay for a few more. The beach access is a huge perk and the screened porch is so comfortable for when it gets a little windy outside.

The good news and the bad news.
Great beach front location and screened-in porch. Good bed and linens. Then: windows don't open, broken furniture, poor lighting, sketchy air conditioning and electricity.
