Cozy and casual with all the comforts of a beach cabin, just not on the beach. Private feel with easy access to Folly Beach and downtown Charleston and the airport. Great place for a family vacation with 2 rooms and bath, nice layout. Really enjoyed our time here! Thanks Kit!

The place was clean and well equipped. It had a lovely patio and yard with fire pit. It was a great location for accessing Folly Beach and McLeod Plantation which is well worth the visit for Gullah history. It was also easy access to everything in Charleston, and relaxing to return to after a long day.

The house is so cute, well decorated, and had everything we needed. I loved the location - quick drive into Charleston and a quick drive to Folly Beach, but out of the hustle and bustle. I wanted to use the fire pit, but couldn't make it happen. It is very inviting though! I would absolutely recommend staying here!

This duplex is a great location for a quick and easy drive to Folly Beach and to Charleston. The unit had everything that we needed for a comfortable stay and was clean upon arrival. The air conditioning units were key and helped to reduce the dampness in the air. I would stay again.
