Lack of response
I sent a few questions through email within the week before our stay and never got responses to my questions until the day we checked out. Additionally, when we booked our stay we asked for an early check-in (just one hour before the scheduled check-in of 4pm) and never heard a word in response. We drove past the rental an hour before (3pm) and no one was there-no cleaners of anyone else) but they never responded to our request, which they easily could have accommodated. We did not go in early as we felt we had not been given permission to do so but it seems that it would have been painless for them to have allowed us to do so.

Loved the beach front. The plywood should be changed as the ceiling due to the bedding felt like it had moisture. Great experience overall! Will book again.

The good news and the bad news.
Great beach front location and screened-in porch. Good bed and linens. Then: windows don't open, broken furniture, poor lighting, sketchy air conditioning and electricity.

The perfect beach house
This property was the true definition of a beach house in my families opinion. Loved the set up and they even had a little pool for our 1 1/2 year old Grandson on the deck to enjoy after the beach. Would have been nice if there were a few beach chairs, as most places provide some. We also were under the impression going by the pictures there was only 1 bathroom, what a nice surprise to find 2 full baths. We will defiantly be renting Sho-Rest again.

If the lights were on at night in the house, large flying ants would come through the air conditioning units and cover you up at night. They did come spray but there was no control but to keep the lights off.

Stunning Location!
Such a cute place. Cabin feel on the inside, paradise on the outside. Watched surfers and loved finding all the sea shells in the morning. Walked a mile on the beach to the pier restaurant. Perfect little supermarket just a mile away that has a little bit of everything (beer, groceries, and more). Folly Beach is a great location. Appreciated the book with suggested places to visit. If you take little ones be mindful that the walls in the bedrooms do not go all the way up to the ceiling (in case you need a quiet space). Lots of seating around the house. The beach is nice. Public access on the side of the house. Those who manage this property were quick to responses and very helpful when we checked in. Loved: all the utensils and fun plates painted by kids, nice stock of towels, rocking chairs on the porch facing the ocean, outdoor shower under the deck (even has hot water), puzzles to do at night-we dominated these, comfy beds and pictures of your family on the walls that have enjoyed the place since the 70's. Didn't care for: Showers in the house are small (I couldn't lift my elbow up all the way and I'm 5'3) and large ants came crawling out of the hot and cold knobs that are not caulked in one of the bathrooms so the handles rattle around. There are some open gaps to the outside that I had to close up (in the bedroom window where the air conditioner sits and the door in the bathroom that goes to the outside has about a 2" gap from floor-there was a cold draft and lizards that I didn't want inside).

Reasonable rate. Enjoyed the deck and screened-in porch. Definitely would rent property again. Would like to have had a little bigger showers, but over all, very pleased.

Dusty, moldy, infested with flying ants with dangerous stairs and wiring!!! Would never go back!!
The house is old but if they took better care of it the age would not really matter. It was musty and dusty. The front entry stairs had only a hand rail and open space between it and the stair treads..a scary climb with a three year old. The cord from the light over the rickety table was duct taped to the switchbox. But the worst part of all was an infestation of flying ants!!! All over me and the bed!!! They did respond and someone finally spayed that night and it cut back on the numbers for a day or two but then they began to increase again. We were over it and left a day early. I told the office all of this when i turned in the key and they were polite but made no attempt or any offer to refund any money or give credit for a future stay...IN ANOTHER HOUSE..!!! Nothing!!!! That was the worst vacation ever!!! The porch and deck were nice and it was beachfront...all good but bot good enough!

Just Right
My family and I spent 4 days at Sho-Rest during spring break. It was just perfect. Each bedroom had its own full bathroom. The living room is very cozy. The kitchen had everything one could need. Plus all the little extras were there, like salt, dishwashing soap, sponge etc. There was a wonderful tide pool out front every morning and evening teeming with starfish. The adults sat on the deck and watched the kids play. Charleston is so close, just a 15 minute ride away. This house was same price as the Embassy suites downtown. I am so glad we stayed here instead.
