The house is extremely beautiful and full of charm. Every square inch of the home is used to ensure you have everything you need. We traveled with our dogs and family and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the stay. The house is very conveniently located to Low Life Bar, one of our favorite places. Within walking distance to the main strip of Folly and about 3 blocks from the beach. It’s truly a perfect location. We will rent this home again, possibly in June 2025!!!
