We enjoyed our stay at Sunset Song! Very clean, great location and beautiful sunsets were viewed from the rooftop deck! We would recommend this house to friends and family and would definitely rent this beach house again. Since two of our children live in Charleston it was great that they could visit and there was plenty of room for them to park!

family time

The property was perfect for our gathering with all of the sleeping options as well as 3 full bathrooms. We enjoyed the porch and view of the Folly River from the back family room as well as the sunset view from the 3rd level deck. The kitchen was well stocked which we appreciated. We were disappointed that the closest beach access wasn't repaired from a recent storm, but we did find ways on to the beach. The private dock was out of, commission & so we didn't get to try catching blue crabs. Overall, a positive property and location.

Pictures are deceiving! Watch out for this catfish

The house was clean and in a wonderful location, but the house does NOT look like the pictures. The house is actually the beat up, older version of once was pictured. For the price per night you are NOT getting what you pay for. The dock is broken, take it out of the advertisement. There are dents/scratches in the walls, the ceiling is crumbling in places and some air vents are hanging on for dear life. Most windows are so old they stay half open or will not open at all, screens are falling out or missing, toilets and sinks are not secured to walls or floors. Nothing wrong with an old home on a wonderful beach just be honest, price appropriately or fix the house up!

Great place, wish the dock was open

We loved everything about this little beach house, except for the fact the dock was not open and we were planning on fishing from it. Wish they had told us that are advance. It was nice they took care of bed linens so we didn’t have to strip the beds at the end. The house had everything we needed otherwise and it was a wonderful weekend.

Awesome views and location!

Beautiful views of the marsh and the beach. You can see the beach from the windows and the public beach access is about 2 houses down. Very peaceful house in a great location. A short Uber from downtown Folly Beach or a bit of a longer ride to downtown Charleston. We had a wonderful time here, loved the rooftop deck and would stay again! This was a house we cancelled during COVID more than once and Vacasa was very helpful throughout the entire process.

Folly Beach Vacation 2022

The property was as advertised - clean and comfortable, and steps from the beach which was what we were looking for! The roof deck was our favorite spot for coffee in the morning and cocktails in the evening; the perfect spot to view the amazing sunsets over the marsh. BRING BUG SPRAY - the gnats/mosquitos were very bad, especially in the evening (or morning!) Bring beach towels as there are only towels /washcloths for bathing; bring beach chairs (if you can) as none are provided. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking utensils, plates, glasses, etc. I can't say whether the TVs worked as we never turned them on - we were having too much fun! Overall a very comfortable vacation home in the quieter section of the island - which is what we wanted. The beach was absolutely beautiful - no crowds on this end of Folly. A short 1 mile walk to the Morris Island Lighthouse area - or there is limited parking at the end of the road. There are very good restaurants and bars around the Center St. area which is less than 3 miles away - definitely take an Uber if you're "enjoying" the fun bars. I would recommend this house for a relaxing, low-key visit to beautiful Folly Beach - and would love to go back again one day!

Family at Folly

A very clean and well maintained home with a unique floor plan with lots of room. There are more than enough dishes so we only ran the dishwasher when we left after 3 nights. GORGEOUS view of the marsh and the public beach access is just two houses down the road. We had 4 adults and three kids and were very comfortable. Super friendly and responsive Vacasa staff communications via text.

Great week at Sunset Song

We had a relaxing, comfortable stay at Sunset Song. The house is well-equipped, especially the kitchen, very clean and just steps from the beach. There’s an outdoor shower to clean off when you get back. The marsh view from the rear living room is beautiful. The rooftop deck is what drew us to this rental, and the view from there is great. We weren’t able to enjoy it much because of gnats and mosquitoes, unfortunately, but some bug spray would probably do the trick if you’re into that. It does have an odd layout where you have to walk through one bedroom to get to another and through two bedrooms to get to the back living room with the marsh view, the room featured in the listing. It wasn’t an issue for us but good to know if you wouldn’t be comfortable with that. It’s about a mile west of the lighthouse, which makes for gorgeous sunrise walks.

Great Marsh View

The upper deck gave us a brilliant view of the marshlands and the setting sun. Also able to see glimpses of the ocean from the front. Service by Vacasa during our stay exellent.

Nice house but needs work

Nice house, but could use some work, the rug that was in the kitchen would slide around when you stepped on it so when i moved it there was a pile of dirt under it like it is never moved to be swept under, the hot water in the kitchen really didn't work and took forever to get warm (never really got hot just warm), there was no access to the washer and dryer (i was assuming they were in a down stairs room witch was locked and no keys were provided) the driveway is hard to find especially in dark since there is no address marker at the beginning of the driveway, the trees need trimmed so you can see to get out of the driveway, the key entry code was wrong when we arrived and it took an hour to get in since they sent someone to a wrong house (sent him to a house in Florida!!!) to help us get in! we were atleast reimbursed a little for that but an hour is a little extensive for a key code... on a positive note, the house was pretty well stocked with plenty of cookware and dishes but we most likely will not stay at this property again

The house is right across the street from the beach. The kitchen itself seemed a little dated, other than that it had everything we needed.

Not our first choice

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The original house we reserved, which we had stayed at before, had a pest infestation so they put us at this house. While adequate, it was not as nice as the house we reserved where we had stayed before but Avocet did as well as they could. Good location though.

Sunset Song

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I was a little disappointed in our overall experience. I called to check on the status of our home a few days before and was informed that everything was great. When we arrived at check-in we were given keys and sent on our way. When we arrived at the house there were workers fixing the whole screen porch and installing new electrical and washer/dryer in downstairs. I wish someone would of told us to be expecting these people to be at the house. Also they left and we had to place all the furniture back on the porch ourselves. When we went to use the washer/dryer the day before our departure we discovered that they were not installed properly and did not work. We placed a call before the office closed and were told to expect a return call. We never got a return call so I called the after hours people and they said they would leave a message but there was really nothing they could do. I am very disappointed. This was a promised amenity and it should of been working. I also think if a person calls to check on the house as stated to do on your website and emails you should inform them of the true shape of the house. It would of been very nice to know what we were walking into.

Great house! Wonderful location!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I rented this house over Labor Day weekend for a girls weekend! The house comfortably fit all 6 of us. The screened porch and rooftop deck are wonderful for relaxing and enjoying a beer or glass of wine! The rooftop deck also has amazing views! The house is conveniently located across the street from beach access. The only issues we had with the house was a broken lamp in the living room as well as the ceiling fan (in the living room) that is extremely wobbly and could not be used. There are also several broken blinds throughout the house that the owner should fix. But these were just minor issues! The staff from Avocet was very accommodating and helpful! We are already planning a return trip for next year!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a very nice house. The screened porch is about 3 times larger than the picture looks and there is a huge roof top deck overlooking the marsh that is not even shown in any of the pictures. Kitchen is small but who wants to cook on vacation! You have to walk through 2 bedrooms to get to the back living area but it wasn't an issue for us. Great location.
