We had a great stay at Unleashed. Our grandson loved going upstairs on the balcony. It was perfect for our family and for our dogs. We enjoyed all the space and the beds were very comfortable.Close to beach, downtown and stores. Loved it.

What a wonderful family vacation we had in your lovely home and at Folly Beach. We loved cooking our meals in the well-appointed kitchen, relaxing on the terrace and porch, taking in the shops at Folly..... The house is so spacious and comfortable, and all the special touches made for a wonderful time together. We will return. Thanks!

We were spoiled with "Unleashed" the homeowner went to great links to provide luxury yet comfort in this spacious home. You will love the location of the home, a short walking distance to the beach, stores and restaurants. You can't go wrong renting this property.

We had an amazing time at your beautiful house! Pictures cannot do the house justice; when you walk in, you know that your vacation is going to relaxing and wonderful, even if you never leave the house. The view of the ocean from the upper deck was better than expected. Every morning waking up was like waking up on the beach because you can still hear the ocean waves crashing. Folly beach is the perfect size and has everything that you will need with Charleston only a ten minute drive over the bridge. We want to go back ASAP!!!

If you decide to stay at the Mediterranean villa on
Folly Island you will be as pleased as we were. The
villa is conveniently located a quick stroll to the
beach and Center Street where cute shops and tasty
restaurants are located. The villa itself is
wonderfully accommodating, spacious enough for
three, possibly four couples, or a large family
gathering, including your dog. There's enough
room to spread out and enjoy the patio, porch,
living room and huge family kitchen, all tastefully
appointed and fully equipped. If you buy fresh fish
from Crosby's nearby, you'll have a fabulous
gourmet kitchen to prepare it in.

Everything is just as described, if anything it
exceeded our expectations. Lee is dedicated to
making your vacation as wonderful as possible.
You'll be delighted!

House was great, everyone talked about how nice all weekend. Open spaces, decor, furnishings were all just wonderful. Roof deck was very popular Friday (warm sunshine), and some use Saturday morning. DVD is hooked up and works (one guy in group full tech-geek) TV has really good picture, watched ROLLING STONES live concert tape Saturday night after dinner. Surround sound was wonderful.

The cooks LOVED kitchen, that range/oven/hood combo is to die for, had fresh seafood two (2) nights (local shop), fixed full spread breakfast every morning. We did eat out local first night, couple lunches, and short pub crawl Friday night, very friendly, good food, and good service.

Weather turned out wonderfull, golf, walkers and had bicycles, toured around from park to light house and in between. Drive in basement was nice when unloading, then Sunday came with rain, was great when loading to leave.

Take care of place we are planning to come back

What a great weekend to be at the beach and especially this house. We brought our dogs for their first trip to the beach. The house is ready for dogs and more than ready for humans. So many extras!! Great location with an easy walk to the beach or town. Never had to use our car. And I think we only used one-third of the house!! The owners are very attentive to every detail and then some. Highly recommend staying here!!

We absolutely loved the house. It is well kept and very spacious. The rate for December rental was very reasonable. We used the house for our honeymoon and it exceeded our needs as there were just two of us. It is close to the beach and very near downtown Charlestown (maybe 10 minutes). The upper porch has a view of the ocean and is connected to the master bedroom and very spacious, but it is also very private as this balcony is above most of the neighboring properties. Would recommend to anyone from a couple of two to a large family. We would love to come and stay here again.

We are originally from Charleston and have a lot of family still living in the area. Your home was the perfect place for us to gather, enjoy good food prepared in your amazing kitchen and spend time taking trips down memory lane. The upstairs patio was a gathering spot for the younger family members, while the older folks spent most of their time on the well-furnished porch.

The amenities are fantastic, the beds extremely comfortable, and all the personal touches from scented hand soaps to ambient lighting to your thoughtful instructional notes, made our stay there such a memorable occasion.

The convenient location to downtown Folly was perfect for quick runs to Berts for grocery items or a short walk to a local hangout for a beer.

I hope to return soon!

Being retired, I've rented a number of houses on the North Carolina and South Carolina coast. This is by far the nicest house I've ever rented. This is a very large house so the five of us had plenty of space for our quiet time. The house is well appointed with quality linens and towels. The large kitchen has every convenience. If you are looking for a spacious and comfortable house that is only a couple of minutes walk from the beach, then I highly recommend this 5 star luxury home. Leonie, the owner, makes every attempt to see that the house is well taken care of.
The connector 30 to Charleston makes an easy and fast trip into that charming town which abounds in excellent restaurants, ante-bellum houses, and many fine shops. My friends and I consider ourselves fortunate to have found this wonderful house where we intend to spend more time in the future.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Folly Beach. The accommodations were exactly as promised in the listing. It's a truly beautiful home. There were so many nice touches it's hard to pick out a favorite. We loved all the linens, from the large soft towels to the wonderful bedding. The kitchen was a joy to use, the screened porch and the upstairs patio were enjoyed by all.The beach and shopping were very close to walk to. I wish we could have stayed longer.Leonie answered all our questions promptly and we hope to stay again in the future. Highly recommended!

This is truly an awesome home that is everything that was described plus more. The furnishings are very lavash and the property is extremely well maintained. We had a great time in Folly Beach and plan to return soon. Michelles Spa is just down the street and offers some wonderful pampering/relaxing services.

We really enjoyed our relaxing days at this beautiful home. It is walking distance to the central area of Folly Beach, so going to lunch, dinner or just shopping was just a pleasent short walk.
Most of all the house is very confortable with several areas to relax and spend a quite time. The kitchen is much better equipted than other place we have stayed at, so you would enjoy cooking any meal there.

A wonderful, spacious, clean and comfortable home to relax in with the pounding surf within view. We had a very enjoyable month and my 9 year old yellow lab was relaxed and enjoyed his stay also. There is plenty of room to socialize with house guests and yet have your own space too. My husband and I both brought laptops and could keep up with everything that needed tending to, on high-speed cable. We would definitely choose this house again for a vacation in the future.

We just returned from a great week at Folly Beach/Charleston where we gathered with family to celebrate Christmas together. (8 adults 1 12mo.) This house was perfect for that occasion as it would be for any time of the year. It was truly one of the best vacation rentals we have stayed in....warmly and nicely decorated with very comfortable beds. The open and very flowing design of this house provides great space for gathering & a beautiful kitchen, yet everyone had their own bedrooms and privacy when needed. We would recommend this house to anyone and hope to return ourselves. Lee, the owner, was very helpful and gracious and we truly appreciated her welcoming warmth and the effort she puts forth to make your vacation enjoyable. Try this house & you'll be glad you did!

Our family rented this property last May. We at that time lived in Iowa and always have enjoyed So. Carolina. We drove to Folly Beach and were blown away by this beautiful retreat that Lee rents to lucky vacationers!! We now live in Greenville, So. Carolina and we are only 3 hours from this perfect home. We enjoyed every square inch of this house and Folly Beach and all the people we met!!See you this fall, Lee...Howard will be here in June! Thank You,

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Folly Beach this past weekend and highly recommend this house! It was everything we were told it would be! Being able to have the dogs was a plus! There were 7 adults and the house size was perfect. Location to town and the beach were great! Loved the upstairs deck! Thanks for the nice bed linenes and towels, that is a real plus for a rental home. Folly Beach is like a small Key West, ecclectic and laid back. We actually sat back and did nothing! Thank you Lee!

We had a wonderful time at Folly Beach and absolutely LOVED staying at this home. It is comfortable, spacious and clean. It comes with nice linens on the beds and ample towels-both bath and beach. One of our favorites was the kitchen which made cooking enjoyable with the adjacent family room. Our family enjoyed hanging out in this area. However, the highlight of the home was the large balcony area. We enjoyed breakfast out there and my teenage girls and I spent a good part of the day resting and reading on the lounge chairs provided. It was also nice when the beach was too cool. We liked with this location that we could walk into town to enjoy some restaurants. When I called to make the reservation, Lee was extremely helpful in explaining the rental and area to me, especially since we had never been to the Charleston area, and particularly Folly beach. My girls are anxiously looking forward to when we can go back and enjoy this home at Folly.

The owner did not return my call about booking this property even though the dates were available on the calender. Once I did finally talk to her she wasn't very friendly. Will not do business with them again.

I try to respond to everyones e mail as soon as possible as well as returning all phone calls .However I am sometimes away and although always available to reciece emergency calls from booked guestsI cannot return every e amil request or phone call immediately .As for my lack of friendliness I am sure this persons irritation at the delay in getting hold of me may have been obvious to me .I am very careful who I let rent my home and because of this I have had only very happy guests staying there .I make sure that the house will be a good fit for them and their group as well as for the good of my home and its future guests .Also sometimes some people call at the most amazing times not respecting the normal civil hours in which to call .I never rent to someone who does not show me respect as therefore they will not respect my home

This vacation was one of the best! The house was absolutely incredible. Perfectly clean and comfortable. Our guests were blown away. Our favorite part was the deck on the second floor overlooking the ocean.

Also, the proximity to town made this vacation very relaxing. Everything you need within a five minute walk. Folly is perfectly relaxing. This cacation rocked!!!

Staying in this home was truely wonderful. The home itself is stunning, and yet comfortable enough to relax in. We enjoyed small touches like nice hand soap, extra plump towels, and memory foam pillows (comfortable beds!!) great coffee maker and surround sound speakers. Location is perfect, especially for teens wanting to go to the Folly downtown area by themselves. I walked to the corner store to get milk, or to go eat dinner at the Crab Shack or Wine and Gourmet. Gas range was wonderful too - we had the best eggs and pancakes on the island!

This place is truly an experience, and the owners, whom we had the pleasure to meet, have gone over and above the norm to make it that way. As a bed and breakfast owner and frequent user of the VRBO network, I feel that 210 E. Cooper is one of the finest homes available.
It is beautiful, and then there are the smaller, personal touches that make it feel like home. You won't believe it until you, too, experience it.

This house is amazing!The kitchen was spotless,they had everything we needed!I have stayed at Wild Dunes,Kiawah,Mt. Pleasant,and in Charleston.This by far was our best trip!The beach was 2 min. away.Fresh local seafood was a dream to cook (we had several people working in the kitchen at once-plenty of room)The house was full of WOW!The pictures do not even come close.Even a rainy day was a great day in the house. We will be booking again for next year!We are just spoiled for anywhere else!The owner was a true treasure to deal with!I highly recomend this house...except the week I want to book for next year! A+ All owner recomendations were right on the mark. From where to get the seafood,to where to eat were perfect.The town was charming and simple.Very walking ,and biking friendly.This is a great location,and a fantastic house!My teenage daughter even loved her room,and wants the same bed!How about that!Even the teenagers were happy.The master suit,and bath were a true delight.The view from the top floor was soooo relaxing first thing in the morning ,and a great way to end the night.We hated to go home,but look foward to our next trip.

This is one of the few times there is truth in advertising. The home is amazing--a dream house for entertaining--the pictures do not do it justice. We found it wonderfully refreshing and relaxing. Even with so many activities within a few steps of the front door, our favoirte was relaxing and the beautiful deck and screen porch. There is something very calming about the early morning and late night breezes accompanied by the sight, sound, and smell of the ocean, very serene and tranquil. Absolutely incredible.

Myself and a friend spent a very pleasant week in Folly Beach in Oct '04. This house is luxury personified, spacious and comfortable, and ideally located less than 5 mins walk from the beach or Main Street. A great place to chill out - all your needs on hand, with Charleston only a few miles away. We enjoyed ourselves tremendously in this beautifully appointed property. A must stay at.
