Jo-Ann Cottage

I can’t say enough great things about the Jo-Ann Cottage! So many of the beach rentals you see today are new, but bare and only provide the essentials - but not Jo-Ann. She comes as a warm family hug; a glimpse into her past generations; a comfortable dwelling to share with family and friends. You can tell immediately upon entering that she’s been loved and she’s ready to love you back. I highly recommend staying!

We had a fantastic weekend at the cottage! There were lots of comfortable bedrooms and beds. There were nice gathering areas for socializing and reminiscing. We had a wonderful time. I would highly recommend this oceanfront cottage.

This cottage was incredible. The setting, the cleanliness, and the location made this one of the best rentals we've ever stayed at. Downtown Folly is just a few minutes walk. The beach is super easy to access. The house had everything we needed and more. We didn't realize just how big the place was until we got inside. Plus it had two enclosed outdoor showers for cleaning up after a long day at the beach. Plenty of outdoor seating and room to spread out. This place is an absolute must return for us.

Wonderful stay! Great location - walking distance to the main strip on Folly Island, as well as being right on the beach.

Super easy process including the option to check in early. Management was quick to respond to all questions. House was perfect for our trip and couldn’t be more convenient! We will definitely be back.

I suppose it was an added touch that the Pink Moon or Super Moon came rising over the ocean on a glorious night as we sang and danced to David Byrne's American Utopia on the marvelous deck of Jo-Ann Cottage. This is a wondrous house, the place of ocean dreams for a family getting to re-establish contact after months and months. Exuding old Folly charm, the bedrooms were light and breezy, with snug beds, most with views of the ocean. This cottage seemed to have been a true beach retreat to a family for many years and there are beautiful old photographs documenting their stays at the cottage-- these added to the ambience and beauty. A lovely bunk room, a huge family dinner table, a lovely wooden walkway to the beach, comfortable seating areas, a wrap around deck, a bright play "sun room", an assortment of games, I could go on and on. But lest it sound too sentimental, I will add that all the amenities are there to further enhance your stay--give me an ice machine for vacation and I'm in heaven!! A small but well appointed kitchen (and thank you for spices); new large capacity washer and dryer, clean outdoor showers with hot water, plenty of Tommy Bahama beach chairs, lovely bathrooms, and yes, a huge refrigerator. From the moment you walk into the cottage the decor and attention to detail makes you feel as if you are stepping into an ocean dream. The three generations of our family found wonderful joy here.

I have to say I've been renting various properties on Folly at least twice a year for over 20 years now and this is hands down without a doubt my favorite house on Folly! It is a perfect mix of old school Folly cottage charm but with all the space, amenities, and comfort needed for a large group with kids. The decor was just unique enough but still comfortable and practical. The bedrooms were also unique but inviting. The kids absolutely loved the bunk beds, which even had outlets for all their electronics, and the adults loved the outdoor space, which had plenty of comfortable seating and areas to hang out. The kitchen was on the small side but well appointed--the stand alone ice machine was a great perk. Great proximity to Center St., although I could see parking at the home being an issue during the summer. Plenty of beach in front of the home. The pictures really don't do it justice, if you are on the fence about this home, just book it!

It was predicted to rain all weekend we were there. It didn’t rain at all. We had perfect weather. There were tons of beds and bathrooms for us to get ready in! If it did rain the house had a full closet of games! It was a beautiful house and had everything we needed for the weekend!
