My family loved the birdhouse, it was perfect for our family of four. The walk to the beach was around .2 miles. The walk to Center street was around four blocks. The steps on the outside of the house are not steep. It is true that the inside steps are steep, but we did not have any issues. The place was great.
8 / 10Excellent·May 2025
The inside steps to the bedroom are very steep and you constantly have to watch your head going up the stairs (duck stickers were helpful). First day couldn’t figure out why loft was so hot. Someone had the vent line for the ac unit in the room disconnected so it was blowing into the room. There was also an odor in the loft, could not figure out where that was coming from. Location is great. Close to town and the beach. We were able to park at the rental and walk everywhere. The town, the food, the people, the beach are all amazing. Spent hours walking the beach seeing a variety of wild life. Would not recommend for anyone with children. Lots of stairs and a gate that doesn’t latch at top of stairs.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jan 2025
The house was cute and very clean. I really enjoyed Folly Beach and it was easy to get to and from Charleston. One thing, the stairs are pretty tricky and one should really be paying attention. One distraction and I came down part of them with a thud. Overall I do recommend though.
6 / 10Average·Apr 2024
The Birdhouse sits on a quiet street just a short walk to the beach and all of the fun places to visit on Folly Beach. I loved waking up to the sounds of birds chirping, you could hear the waves at night and the bed/linens were wonderful. It is a clean house and was comfortable enough, though lacking in some important amenities for the price. For instance, the incredible deck has four dining chairs and table but only one (old, dirty) chair for lounging. We moved a bed blanket outside to wrap up in in the evening and pillows to turn the dining chairs into ottomans. Any products in the home are there only because a former guest left them there - no body wash, a tiny bit of leftover shampoo, random bottles of sunscreen and aloe. They also did not provide any beach chairs or towels - I rented a chair and umbrella from Folly Beach Chair Company and they set up right next to the 4th St E public beach access point which was lovely...though I thought for the price of the home, I wouldn't have to also rent a chair! Lastly, the stairs to the second floor are steep and uneven - we were relieved not to have little ones with us or elderly parents. If you have the slightest of mobility issues, this is not the spot for you. Not sure we would rent this house again, but grateful for our time there!
