Overall great. One proble was the AC. It stopped working while we were gone visiting Savanah. When we got home at 9 pm the house was 80 degrees. I texted 3 numbers and waited on the phone for 20 minutes before I was able to voice my concerns about the AC. The lady on the phone said there was nothing she could do until the next day. So we sweated the night out. By the morning the house did cool down to 75. We used fans. The next day a really nice man came and saw there was an issue with the condensation in the tubes and air filters were clogged. He changed them, but the house never did get as cool as it did before Wednesday. So Thursday & Friday, were bareable, but is was not cool like Monday and Tuesday. Otherwise the house was great. Super location. You do have to buy or rent your own beach stuff. The house does not have functional beach gear. There are surf boards and kayaks to use.There are no beach towls to use either. Strange, but not a real issue. The house does not have a grittle for pancakes and french toast. FYIThe house is located on the far north end of Folly beach where it is quiet. It takes about 15 minutes to get off the island. So traveling to Charleston is about a 40 min jaunt. FYI.Overall, we loved this place. It worked for our family of 8. We made some great memories that will be impressed into our lives forever. We will have fond memories of this family trip...largely due to this house.

Great location. Great home.

We traveled north to get out of the path of Hurricane Milton and found this cute little house. Easy beach access and clean. We were grateful to have a place to stay and salvage our family vacation.
6.0 / 10.0Average·May 2025
Belle Mare’s location is awesome with a 2-3 minute walk to the beach and marsh views. However, the home itself is worn out and needs some attention from the owners. The mattresses and one of the couches are extremely uncomfortable due to overuse. I would stay in Folly Beach again but not at this home.Additionally, Vacasa’s policy of providing a single kitchen towel is unreasonable. Beach towels should be provided as well.
