Location is key and this rental is perfectly located to easily walk to all things Folly! Once you park your car there will be no need to get back in it, unless you are leaving the Island. This rental is located on the first floor of a two story home. The space includes two private bedrooms with queen beds in both rooms and a twin daybed in the common area. The single daybed is tucked back in it's own little nook with curtains that offer a bit of added privacy. We have a small bathroom and an additional outdoor shower. Great for small families on a budget or couple's retreat! Pictures do not do this rental justice as it is much larger then it appears. Open, airy living area that comfortably seats 4 along with dining inside. Fully appointed kitchen with everything you need to stay in and prepare a meal. Comcast Wifi, YoutubeTV, Smart flat screen TV in living room, additional TV in Master bedroom. Covered Shaded porch outside with dining table and seating. Fenced in yard. Outdoor shower with hot/cold water. 1/2 block from Restaurants, Bars, Shops, Grocery and 2 blocks back from the beach. 2 Beach Chairs provided, beach wagon and small beach towels provided.

Perfect hideaway
We stayed for 1 week in January and got snowed in! First snow since 2018, so the snow was a nice novelty providing a fun atmosphere around town and on the beach. Since most things were shut down for a few days, we were happy to have a comfortable bed and couch to chill out on. The place had everything we needed. The hosts were good to warn us everything would shutdown so we stocked up on groceries. All in all a good place for some downtime and we enjoyed the town as things opened up. We were surprised to see so many surfers despite the cold temps.

JULY 2024
Everything was great-only negative comment is the type of cleaning products used in-between guest. The products ARE VERY TOXIC smells like pine sol or something in that vain-had to open up the windows and turn fans on hi until it aired out. Would suggest to use a more natural base cleaning product as they have the same affect without harming humans and the planet. Mini split in smallest bedroom had inconsistency's-sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn't. We loved the wagon, and the outdoor shower the most. The outside furniture was ok-a lounge chair or 2 of some sort would totally hook up the hideaway!! Thanks Dianna

Folly is fun place to enjoy the seaside. Tucked away offers a location that is close to everything including the beach while being a sanctuary to rest and recover. the provided chairs umbrella and wagon to transport the 2 blocks to beach is wonderful. Upon return is a full outdoor shower to rinse the beach off when returning. loved all the hooks provided in the house. Great stay.

Hidden under a home (but not in the basement) is this roomy guest cottage with all the amenities of home. The covered patio provided a nice outdoor space for morning coffee. Located close to the town center and local grocery which is open 24/7. Cozy and cost effective...will be visiting again.

Lovely place
I and my 2 friends had a lovely stay. The kitchen had everything we needed, the outdoor space was nice and we loved the outdoor shower because the juxtaposition of the modern interior and the old school shower was delightful. The place was immaculate and comfortable and the host was available if needed but not intrusive. The beach was an easy stroll away and a beach cart was provided. We did not need laundry done but machines are on site. We also loved the bidet as we use one at home. 5 stars
