10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (22)
"We were heading to Charleston to look at colleges and this place was right in the middle of our places we needed to visit. We really lucked out. I knew nothing of the area and it was a beautiful, quiet, perfect place six miles from Folly Beach and 15 minutes from Charleston historic area. Our host lived next door and was very personable and accommodating. It was a win-win and we had a beautiful week at Folly Beach. It was heavenly. Thank you!!"

"Great hotel. Wonderful in every way except for getting early check in and late check out. They got me in by about 1:30 and gave me to 1:30 checkout. Better than nothing. My credit card was left at the bar on the roof (they told me they lunch charge it to the room but I was told by the front desk that it should have worked. The hotel charged me $9.95 to send the card back to me "
