We liked this house and loved the location! We really appreciated the start-up toiletries and kitchen essentials. Not all rentals do that and we wanted you to know it was noted and appreciated. The top level of the house is beautiful, excellent for entertaining with the open floor plan. Spent most of our time on the screened in deck off of the living room. Of course it needs some updates, but for a rental, it served its purpose for us! The management company has been 5 star, so responsive and quick to address any issues. Thank you for everything, we look forward to visiting Folly again!
