Awesome, awesome, awesome - one of the best rental houses we have stayed in - and we've stayed in a lot of them. First time on Folly Beach and what a delightful place (despite Hurricane Sandy). Margie and Ed have everything (and more) you could possibly need for a perfect vacation. The brand new coffee pot was a plus for us and the kitchen is totally stocked. Some vacation rentals just have a minimum of towels, kitchen utensils - but not Fosse's Folly - it is more than WELL EQUIPPED for anything you would need. Very spacious and you can choose where you want to be outside. There is a wonderful downstairs area with a hanging swing, and table, chairs, and grill. Upstairs hammock with more adirondeck chairs and the front deck of the house overlooking the ocean - incredible views - we got to watch (we counted 76) surfers for a few days and an occasional dolphin passing.
If there is a negative to Folly Beach - it would be the samll beach area. Not the best place to surf fish. But there is a wonderful pier very close by.
The food was also better than average. Bowen's Island was a unique experience, and the Crab Shack was very good as well.
I would highly recommend this house and this area for a relaxing vacation. not too crowded and the people were just so nice and helpful. I can't say enough about Foose's Folly - it's just the best.

We had a wonderful time during our visit to Folly Beach for an October wedding. Beautiful water views, excellent seafood, impressive Charleston and a comfortable bed to recover for the next day. What more can you ask?

Foose's Folly is Fantastic

Our family plus two rented Foose's Folly in late Summer 2012 -- what a gem! We had plenty of space and all the amenities were available that made our week a really relaxing beach getaway. Charleston was only a short ride away for day trips as well. Margie and Ed have made this beach house a wonderful place for families to make lasting vacation memories. The view of the ocean and the beach access were fantastic! Thank you for opening your lovely home to us.

Fun at Folly Beach

Just spent a fabulous week at Foose's Folley. The house was beautiful and the beach is amazing. We spent the week playing in the waves and exploring the Carolina's. The house was spotless and met all our needs. We have been to many beaches and would definitely rate this one the best. We look forward to coming back soon.

Hubby and I have stayed various cottages , condos and hotels on Folly since our first yearly visit in 1993 but this wonderful cottage is by far the best! Came with our daughter, her husband and 2 year old daughter....my other daughter and her husband and 13 year old son stopped by for one night and we all had quite enough room and just a great time! The cottage is ultimate in cleanliness , which I am very cautious about....no odors , smells or other displeasing scents which I have found in all other places we have stayed. Plenty of towels, blankets and necessities to keep you from wanting to leave even to visit the Pier! Beds ultimately comfy, clean and cozy which is a major focal point for me! Nights on the decks were beautiful, we saw fireworks the last night there, very quiet neighborhood otherwise, people friendly and atmosphere best on Folly! I absolutely will book early next year as I see it is always booked, we simply were blessed to be able to find Foose's Folly this time:)
