The location was perfect- literally right across the street from the beach and a 15 minute drive into Charleston(but I managed to get it faxed to her seconds before I left )We'd go out at the end of the day to fly a kite and take a little walkWe were far enough from the pier to get away from the crowds but still walkable to "downtown" Folly and probably the park on the SThe house's location is ideal a nice walk to town or to the state park end of the beach not to mentionCleanliness:
my first thought was that it was very clean and had just about everything we neededWe used the medium sized (18"?)Read more reviewsAmenities & Room:
