Super Location! Free WiFi! The Island Girl' is a clean, Sweet Older Cottage which has entertained happy folks for years and has enjoyed some recent renovations and upgrades over the couple years. The guests who have stayed with her, loved her so much, they say they wish they could stay forever. Pack a bag, throw in some flip flops, a swim suit and leave your worries behind at the Island Girl! Located JUST ACROSS THE STREET from the BEACH (How Sweet is That?) and only two blocks from the Famous Bert's Market where you can buy anything from ice, to batteries, to organic vegetables, sushi and craft beer, the Island Girl is your key to relaxation. On the first floor, you have plenty of space to relax in the large family room, enjoy a family meal in the dining area or just relax on the screened-in porch while drinking your morning coffee. Upstairs, there are 3 nicely sized bedrooms, a full bath and entry to the sun porch which looks over the palms. Need some time away from the sun? No problem! Our backyard is nicely shaded from all of the beautiful, mature palm trees and there is even an outdoor shower to wash off the sand from your day at the beach. At Folly Beach, you will discover the beauty and diversity of our quaint beach town! Referred to as the 'Edge of America', the town of Folly is very casual, and the locals are friendly. You will enjoy amazing sunrises and sunsets, rich history, good food, expansive beaches, and a town center pier for fishing and sightseeing. Within steps of each other on Center Street, you'll find many restaurants, from upscale to the cool dive. Seafood is always fresh and available everywhere; but no fear, for the non-connoisseur there are taco shops and burger bars. Cool shops abound. And, surfing is big here, so bring your board or sign up for a lesson. A clean and beautiful beach, there is plenty to do at Folly with wonderful swimming, surfing, kayaking, paddle boarding, sun bathing, people watching, finding seashells, running and biking on the beach, and just doing what you want to do. Need to work off some energy after lounging at the beach? Just two blocks away is a wonderful Public Playground ,Tennis and Basketball Court. And, if too sunburned, the charming and historic Charleston is just a short drive away. There you can enjoy some of the best restaurants on the East coast, explore the French Market, picnic at Waterfront or take a horse drawn carriage ride through the Holy City. Do some shopping on King Street, stroll through one of our beautiful museums, take a sunset cruise through the harbor or stop by one of the city's hot spots to people watch (including celebrities!) Looking for a special or romantic weekend getaway and would like to customize your stay? No problem! We would be happy to have a chilled bottle of champagne, fresh flowers, chocolate dipped strawberries or whatever you wish, waiting for you when you arrive. Give us a call and we would be happy to make the arrangements! ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Kitchenette - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 0.5 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Outdoor shower - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - DVD player - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed - Note from host: Smoking allowed only outside. ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near an outlet shopping mall - Near the marina ### Things to do - Water park - Basketball nearby - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Parasailing nearby - Sailing nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Theme park nearby - Water skiing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,400 square feet ## Similar properties ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/94000000/93500000/93492600/93492563/74be7a1c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charleston’s Folly! - King Suite, Pool, Balcony, Walk to Center St!

The initial check in was little unclear at first but the owner reached out to me by phone to ensure we got in ok, which I thought was great! ##### Nicole J.

The only thing that I suggest is adding more beach towels. Listing says plenty, but there were only 2\. When traveling via plane, it was nice not to have to bring them, but disappointed when there were not enough. besides that, great little cottage to relax at the beach. ##### Marissa F.

Jun 9, 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Great location but house needs a good cleaning and maintenance. The location is the best part of this home. It is walkable to the beach and restaurants. House was quite dirty. The floors turned our feet and socks brown. The couch had broken down cushions. Mattresses were in bad shape. Many dishes were dirty and the handle to the fridge was broke off. It is such a great location but I would not stay here again unless it had some TLC. ##### Melissa O. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Carol M. Sep 25, 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy #### IG stay The pictures and the real thing were different. The lower porch was totally unusable. Granted, it had rained but with all the trees, that porch never dried enough to use it and the top one was overgrown with the trees and both needed power washed really bad as did the rest of the house. The pictures of the steps in the back were obviously taken just after the steps were built. The cleaning crew missed a lot by not moving furniture. Dressers had broken drawers. The carpets need cleaned or just ripped out. It was furnished with everything we needed inside as far as the kitchen, plenty of sitting room in the living room and table and chairs to play cards or games on. It was a good spot for the beach tho, not too far and an easy walk. It isn't too far from the stores either. It was a safe neighborhood. It just needs a really good cleaning and fresh paint and it'll be a nice house. Also, lots of steps in the house, definitely not for anyone handicapped. The outside shower needs a new deck on it. One of the couples said that their mattress would make them roll to the middle of the bed and the couch needed cleaned or recovered. Toilet seats were all loose and the beach chairs were rusted out and not usable. Washer and dryer worked great. ##### Carol M. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristin N.

The living room furniture could use some updating, and the outside of the cottage needs to be cleaned, especially the deck railings ( up and down ).We were disappointed that there were no board games as listed.On the bright side, the beds were very comfortable and it is located in a very quiet area.

Clean and exactly what we needed. It close to the beach. A bit of a walk to the town (not super long...12 to 15 min) and parking there was very hard without paying a pretty penny. Many people had golf carts and that seemed like it might have been helpful or a bike or scooter would have been great. No parking issues with that. The house was great. A great beach house...very "beach bungalow" feel. Good spaces, plenty of room for 4-6\. Great bedrooms. Awesome family table. Comfy living room. Good cable. Bathrooms were perfect. Very clean. ##### Brenna G. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth H.

Sep 2, 2025 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy The location is the best thing about this place. It’s within walking distance to the beach and not too far from the main strip and a 24 hour mart. Plenty of parking. HOWEVER, the house looks like a frat house. There was mold in multiple places including the laundry area and in the coffee pot. Thankfully, there was a newer looking Keurig that was available for use. The floors were all warped. Many step ups and downs inside the house almost like the house was pieced together. The door to the upstairs balcony would not lock. The outside shower was nice for rinsing items from the beach but the yard needs a serious mosquito treatment. There were many broken items when we arrived including the microwave door handle and the fridge door handle. After checkout, the owner accused us of breaking the fridge door handle even though it was already broken when we got there. Would not recommend. ##### Jessica L.

Well stocked, very clean, great backyard, superb location. Owner was very responsive. Only downside is, it’s not quiet. It’s a busy street and you can hear everything. The price to pay for fantastic location! Would recommend and would visit again! ##### Sarah A. Stayed 7 nights in May 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### Angie H. Jul 21, 2024 Liked: Check-in Disliked: Location #### House was like a frat house The house was very old and the floors are not even and mini steps that we tripped over several times. The back yard was black dirt where we had to wash off when coming in from the beach and tracked in the house. I sweeped floor every day of course. It may be good for younger folks. But was not for us. ##### Angie H. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Kory L. Aug 1, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy We loved this little place when we stayed here in 2022, but it has gone way downhill since then. It was very dirty, with old food hiding behind and underneath furniture, stains all over furniture and a nice layer of dirt and food crumbs in the couch cushions that my kids found of course. Mold in multiple places and I had to vacuum and scrub the stairs. We found two cockroaches, one dead and one alive. The microwave door handle is broken and the top back door doesn’t lock. The front door looks like it has been kicked in a couple times and the back door bottom threshold is not attached, so when it moves out of place it leaves a nice gap between the door and floor. With the holes in the walls and carpet, and the grime that literally goes from floor to ceiling, this place has become a dump. I do not recommend this place for families, especially with young children. The pros..location is absolutely wonderful (we were able to walk everywhere), management did refund us a portion of our stay due to the unacceptable state of uncleanliness, and management did come fix the AC quickly when it went out. I hope this place can be restored back to what it was. I wouldn’t not stay here again unfortunately and will have to find a different place on Folly for next time. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6e33c7df-14e5-4985-9d0c-75594ac13536-1754072042631.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ebbd2922-4148-4bc5-9182-97ea66019a27-1754072046019.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7dfa11cf-7a27-40ee-83e0-2be7815c5371-1754072009286.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/cdd7251a-c936-40d0-b2a9-e78ed07cfe2f-1754072019246.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Kory L.

Entryway room was amazing for storing our things and leaving our shoes in so we didn't have sand in the whole house! Beds were comfortable! Hosts were very responsive. We would definitely stay here again! ##### Jennifer R. Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melony F.

The house was perfect and the check in process was very simple. We were one block away from the beach and within walking distance of town. This house and location was absolutely perfect! We will be coming back! ##### Melony F.

Such a great time!! We stayed for ten days and found nothing wanting. The cottage has everything we needed to enjoy breakfast on the deck and days at the beach. Check in was so simple and the property manager answered all questions within minutes of us asking them. The cottage is clean, roomy and just plain old fun!! Just a two block walk to the beach and 5 blocks to downtown. Loved the bo-ho style of the area, the great food at all the restaurants, and the cheery dispositions of all the employees. We ate dinner at one of the restaurants every night and enjoyed them all. Couldn't pick a favorite because all the menus were different and each place had it's own vibe. We have future plans to return to Folly Beach and Island Girl. We definitely recommend that others pick this house for a memorable vacation. ##### Dianne T.

We loved the relax atmosphere of Folly Beach and the short walk to the beach . It was an easy drive into Charleston for sight seeing and then returned to enjoy a laid back dinner in Folly. The owner was quick to respond with any questions and issues we had. We would definitely visit again ##### Stephanie P. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2019
