Daufuskie Island Disgusting House

Our family was there about 10 years ago and it was very cute, but they have not done a single thing to keep it up since then!!! It was absolutely disgusting, the most filthy place I have ever stayed!! Rat feces found in corners and other areas. Half of the lights didn’t work and still continued to burn out after they tried to replace them. The golf cart roof fell in on our family and are a danger to even use. Not to mention the dock that is completely falling in, it is unsafe to leave a boat tied up there. I would strongly suggest not staying if you would like a nice house for you and your family to vacation!! It was horrible!!!! I cannot stress enough how disgusting this house is!

A group of friends and cousins

A large group of adult friends and cosines enjoyed this time together. This place had enough space to accommodate a large crowd. Most of us had our on bathroom, and the large screened in porch was so much fun for us all! The property is large and riding the golf carts around it made us feel like kids again. The owner is great and was very accommodating! This may be our forever rental on Daufuskie Island!

Dirty

The host was very responsive and helpful leading up to our trip. However, upon arrival I was horrified at the lack of cleanliness of the property. It was absolutely filthy and appeared to have not had a drop of TLC in quite sometime. I will definitely be back Daufuskie but will absolutely never stay at Jolly Shores again. If you’re someone who like camping then maybe this property is a good fit but if you’re someone who doesn’t like bugs and vines growing indoors then I’d say avoid this property at all cost.

Great fun for our large group!

We always love Jolly Shores. The golf carts, pool table, ping pong table, big TV, ice machine (😍), and TWO refrigerators are really great additions! We love all the private bed and bath options, too. This location offers all the flexibility that we needed- including a dock for our boating friends who joined us! We cooked, laughed, sung, napped, and hung out together and enjoyed the best sunsets on the island!

Laidback lowcountry vacation

Excellent spot if you have a large group. The communal screened-in porch with a commercial ice machine, bar, pool table, etc. is perfect for entertaining. Huge property with a dock and plenty of room for outdoor activities. The owner was extremely helpful and took great care of us!

Christmas on Daufuskie

Great property- great owner! We enjoyed the house and property very much. Because of the Arctic blast that Mother Nature sent us, we weren’t able to enjoy the property as much as we wanted to. We did brave the cold to do some sightseeing and eat out one night. We visited the distillery twice; great bourbon and rum! The Christmas tree was a great touch! We are already planning another trip to Jolly Shores to experience it to its full potential.

The golf cart with no roof would not maintain a charge and we actually had to tow it back after only having it out for an hour. We ended up just renting another cart from tour Daufuskie. Most everything else was satisfactory. See y’all next year!

Loved Jolly Shores

This place is truly a hidden gem. It accommodated 12 of us very comfortably. We had a little hiccup in the beginning because I was told the boat would drop us off at Jolly Shores dock but when we got there they brought us to the public landing instead. We had no way of transporting us and all our luggage to the house. We called the owner and he immediately came with 3 vehicles to pick us up. I can't say enough about how awesome the owner was to us. The house is simple, just like the pictures show. However, it was exactly as I expected it. We had so much fun and felt like we were the only people on the island at this remote getaway. We are already planning our next trip. Thanks Kacey and Kathrine for everything.

Family Adventures

We LOVED our time spent on Daufuskie and the hosts of Jolly Shores made the week even better! They made sure that we got settled, felt at home, and accommodated our needs before we even knew that we had them. This home is designed for a pack of pirates and it was perfect for our wild crew. Don't forget your bug spray!!
