Fersner's Folly

Location, location, location!! I have stayed here multiple times. I will continue to return as it is right on the beach, peaceful, and walkable to some cool restaurants.

Charleston in August is hot so being on the beach was what we wanted. Appreciated outdoor shower and walkable to shops and restaurants in Folly Beach. Also short drive into Charleston to drop our daughter off and visit her at College of Charleston. Perfect location. House was comfy with 3 bedrooms and updated bathroom. Thank you.

I had an unforgettable vacation at this Airbnb beach house! The location was absolutely perfect, with direct access to the beach just steps away. The house itself was stunning, with breathtaking views of the ocean from every room. It was beautifully decorated and well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The outdoor space was a true paradise, with a private deck and a cozy patio where we could relax and soak up the sun. The host was incredibly helpful and provided excellent recommendations for local activities and restaurants. I can't wait to return to this beach house for another incredible getaway!

Myself and my dog, who was hairless so no shedding, arrived at the home I had rented for the weekend and were exhausted from our drive. After getting the luggage in and assessing the property, i loved having the whole place to myself. I dislike sharing in duplexes and hotels so I was so glad to have time alone. I was highly impressed. The bathroom was beautifully designed and all the space was utilized to maximum potential. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and utensils. The one bedroom I used had a bed that immediately put me to sleep. Pillows were newer and the bed itself was extremely comfortable. But I was there for the view and the sound of the waves crashing. I was not disappointed either. An unobstructed view was just what I needed. The large porch had many seating areas. My favorite spot was the outdoor couch on the screened porch. I napped there in the afternoons and it was so peaceful. I truly enjoyed myself. Thanks for the excellent experience in your home.

Comfortable, cozy house. Love the porch and the walkover to the beach!

Cindy - Posted: 9/11/2022

This property was a described we will definitely stay here again.

Crystal - Posted: 9/11/2022

Check in was seamless and convenient. They have an office nearby so it’s easy to call and speak to someone if you need anything. House was clean and you can watch the sunrise everyday from the back porch. About 30 second walk down to the beach, perfect for families

Gretchen - Posted: 9/10/2022

The perfect place for a relaxing beach vacation with amazing views and a very private feel! We never wanted to leave the screened in back porch with ocean view!!!

Suzanne - Posted: 8/13/2022

This is a great house to stay at in Folly Beach! Highly recommend.

Shalee from Zirconia, NC - Posted: 7/31/2022

This is the cutest little beach house. Everything you’d want is here and it is so close to town and eating we walked most of the time. And of course it is right on the beach which cannot be beat. Waking up to the sounds and view of the ocean was awesome and having your own path to the beach is so convenient. I will definitely be coming back to vacation here.

Rene - Posted: 5/2/2022

This felt like an authentic beach house. A great deck with a great view in a great location. It was far enough from Central Street to be away from the hustle and bustle yet close enough to easily get their via a walk or a golf cart. The property was very clean, one of the cleaner ones I’ve stayed in. Some updates and maintenance could be used. There is no dishwasher and I was not aware of that prior to booking it. I’m sure it was oversight on my end. The property manager was very responsive. Parking was very easy and felt secure. I will definitely stay there again.

Michelle from Knoxville, TN - Posted: 4/25/2022

Amazing ocean view, steps from the ocean, clean beach, restaurants you can walk to.

Ginger - Posted: 4/13/2022

This was the perfect place. It was clean and walkable to the downtown restaurants. The only issue I had was a hundred early check in or out. This only gave us 2 hours before the normal check in time. I checked and the house was not rented the week before our weekend get a way. We only live about an hour away and had our dog with us and wanted a little extra time. I have used VRBO for years and when it is managed by the owner we normally do not have a problem checking in early. It was a great place.

Mary - Posted: 1/27/2022

Location is great, house is okay, beds not so okay. We call it the Goldilocks house. One bed too soft, one too hard and one just right. Dishes were mismatched, not enough to set the table for five people.

Anonymous - Posted: 1/20/2022

Clean property with great location

Justin - Posted: 12/3/2021

We loved the time we spent at this location and it is the perfect LOCATION! Everything was very clean and pictures are just as the rental appear. It does have a little vintage feel, very cozy! Overall quiet, steps to the beach, and an awesome view from the porch and deck!!!!

Miranda J from Bean Station, TN - Posted: 9/16/2021

We could see the ocean from almost every room. The porches are very nice as well. We would like to go back.

Mark B from Columbia, SC - Posted: 3/12/2021

Great location. Clean and tidy. Easy reservation/check-in/stay/etc

Scott I - Posted: 2/6/2021

Direct private access to beach. Very nice screened porch for sunrises.

Sara V - Posted: 11/3/2020

Simple ocean front comfort!

Shelley P from Athens, GA - Posted: 10/6/2020

We love Fersners Folly! Just a sweet little house. Our second visit was as good as our first and we are going to be booking a stay in the Fall. Thanks for everything!

Tanya B - Posted: 3/26/2020

Location, location, location. We loved being right on the beach, and we found this house had everything we needed for our Thanksgiving visit.

Rosemary B from Charlotte, NC - Posted: 12/13/2019

The description fit the property exactly, which is a lot of the reason we chose this house. Great place to relax and read a book but just 3 blocks from restaurants and bars on Folly and only bout 20 minutes from Charleston. We will stay here again.

Mark B - Posted: 10/19/2019

Our stay was wonderful! The beach views from the porch were amazing!! It was so nice to be able to walk to dinner every night and be steps from the beach!! The house was great and had views from every angle!!

Andrea A - Posted: 10/8/2019

We had 4 kids and the house fit us perfectly, the house is in a perfect place on Folly and we loved it. It’s not so fancy that you’re scared to touch anything but it’s certainly not grungy either - the beds, pillows were great! And the bathroom is very nice (looks like it was recently remodeled). The BEST part is the covered and fully screened wrap porch...absolutely awesome to enjoy in the evenings!! Check-out was the easiest we have ever gotten. This place is perfect for us! We will be back!

Bebee W - Posted: 8/23/2019

Perfect spot on Folly Beach! Beach was beautiful and the home is walking distance to restaurants and bars.

Anne L from Lutherville-Timonium, MD - Posted: 7/18/2019

Fersners was a last minute reservation for us. It was one of only a few beach front houses left for our dates on the island. I was worried a little but I was WRONG! We would come back today. Nothin fancy at Fersners just good clean relaxation. Sweetest little path to the beach. Extremely comfortable beds. Perfect for me and my two teen kids. Thanks Fersners Folly.

Cher C from Parrotsville, TN - Posted: 6/21/2019

We took our daughter here for her first beach visit. It was wonderful!! I booked it because of the location and believe me when I say that it did NOT disappoint! You can literally walk to town with ease, but it's far enough away that it's quiet and peaceful at night! The pier is within a comfortable walking distance also! Another plus-the kitchen is completely stocked-all the dishes and flatware that you need to cook as many times as needed! We will definitely be back!

Autumn D from Toccoa, GA - Posted: 6/4/2019

Nice and modest and great view.

Michael M - Posted: 5/8/2019

My family and I will definitely be back and book our stay at Fersner’s Folly!!! Cleanliness is very important to me and this well kept beachfront property did not disappoint. Lovely older beach home but well maintained and nothing was overlooked as far as making their guests feel at home. My family was already planning our next stay there before we even left to go back home.

Barbara C - Posted: 5/4/2019

My husband, dogs, and I stayed at Fersner's Folly for a week in March. It was PERFECT! It was still too cold to swim, but we had the best time on the beach and the DECK! Soo nice! Also, it was really fun walking into town (a five-ten minute walk) - the location is perfect!

Katie R from Chicago, IL - Posted: 5/3/2019

Everything as expected! Property was awesome and details were covered to make this a great stay for my family. Highly recommend!

Richard W from Florence, SC - Posted: 4/3/2019

Exactly what I think of when I think of a South Carolina Beach House!!! 

Ann W from Greenwood, SC - Posted: 3/25/2019

Very nice place. Very helpful support. Smoke detector needed new batteries and maintenance was there in just a few minutes.

Glenn P from Hickory, NC - Posted: 3/19/2019

This beach house was perfect for our family of five, including three young children, and our dog. It was comfortable, extremely clean, with a gorgeous view. We appreciated the proximity to restaurants and shops. The only minor things I could suggest for improvement would be hand soap for use in the kitchen, and perhaps small shampoos/conditioners for the shower, in the event a guest forgot theirs and hadn't had time to go the store. We've been renting beach houses in the Charleston area for over ten years, and this home is at the top of our experiences.

Jessica F - Posted: 2/27/2019

The oceanfront location was great. Our dog loved the walks on the beach. We loved the views and relaxing on the deck and screened-in porch. Bed was fantastic. The cottage is vintage/dated, but comfortable. FBR company responded quickly to 2 requests for more hangers and a set of steak knives.

Julie K from Charlevoix - Posted: 11/7/2018

Ocean front with nice boardwalk to the beach. Loved the sun deck and that it was not cluttered with furniture. Wonderful screened in porch overlooking the beach was the best afternoon spot with a nice breeze...our dogs loved it too! Comfortable beds! Towels & linens provided along with a few detergent pods to wash our vacation attire. And I almost forgot.....the yard has PLENTY OF PARKING!!

Rhonda A from Santee - Posted: 8/15/2018

Very cozy.

Heather A from Charlotte, NC - Posted: 7/5/2018

The house is only an 11 minute walk to all the restaurants and the pier. The view from the back deck is also really nice as well. Overrall the experience was exciting and made my family really happy.

Christine C from Beverly Hills, CA - Posted: 6/22/2018

The porches are amazing and walk to the beach is short. We especially liked that our dogs were welcomed!

Mitzie G from Atlanta, GA - Posted: 5/17/2018

We lamented we had to leave so soon. This house has an amazing view of the ocean from most of the interior and the wrap-around screen porch was perfect with kids. We loved being able to easily go to the beach and back which is important when towing toddlers around. The beds were super comfortable and although the house could use some updating it was very clean and had everything you need. We especially appreciated the sand toys that we had forgotten ourselves. Overall we are definitely going to stay again!

Mandy F from Charlotte, NC - Posted: 2/24/2018

The home was in a perfect location, and had amazing views! The large, wraparound screened-in porch was fantastic! The home is a small 3 bedroom with a very small one bath, so space is limited, but the bedrooms are all a nice size and the beds very comfortable. We were a little disappointed at the lack of good pots and pans for cooking in, as well as the age of the furniture coverings in the living room, but the amount of seating was great for a small home. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to stay at this home again.

Ashley V from Tucker, GA - Posted: 1/2/2018

This house met all our expectations and then some. The owners have taken excellent care of it and have updated some areas. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, glasses, pots, and pans. The washer and dryer served their purpose a few times during the week. The seating in the living area was comfortable, even though we spent most of our time on the beach, screened porch, and back deck. The view form the back deck provided perfect viewing of the moonlit sky. The beach is at your fingertips out the back door. The screened porch provided a nice place for some naps in the late afternoons and early mornings. 
We saw dolphins every day frolicking in the water, baby sea turtles making a run for the water, crabs at night, and found numerous shells every day. The walk to the pier is less than 10 minutes. The beach and surrounding area was not crowded even though all the homes on the street appeared to be full. 
We loved the house and area so much we extended our stay an extra day. We are already planning our next visit to Folly Beach and would love to stay in the same house. It was perfect.

Great location Great house and just as advertised

Brian C from Williamsburg, VA - Posted: 8/22/2017

Stayed for 4 nights in late June, 2017 and loved this cottage. Stayed here with my wife, sister in law and her husband and we were all very comfortable. This is a quaint rustic cottage but very clean and it appears that everything has been recently painted. The kitchen was well equipped and we were able to eat most meals in this cottage. The real plusses were the large screened-in porch with incredible beach views and the easy access to the beach via the private boardwalk. The breeze from the ocean allowed us to hang out on the porches without getting too warm. Beds were comfortable. We would stay here again.

John from Kernersville, NC - Posted: 8/9/2017

I loved the rustic charm of this house. It transports you back to when going to the beach house gives you all the comforts of home when you leave the daily grind behind. The cottage feel, wicker furnishing and beautiful wrap around Porch was outstanding!! The bed was comfortable. The house was clean and inviting. We will be back. Thank you all for the outstanding service and detail to our trip. It was a seamless!! We brought along our dog and this house is very pet friendly!! Direct beach access and views are everything you can hope for! Hope everyone enjoys this place as much as we did!
