What was being offered at the time was not going to work for the type of event or my schedule.

Plan early and make reservations if you want to fish or cruise out around Charleston.

Plenty of room for our group and loved the restroom facilities being so clean and accessible. The caterer was able to set up without getting in the way for a fabulous lowcountry boil along with oysters and still room for a very nice full service bar. I will consider this place in the future if it turns out I need an event space. Highly recommend.

I'll add that I wanted to rent chair and umbrella. I did learn you have to do that prior to going down to the beach because they are not able to read cards. It wasn't too crowded on a Thursday afternoon 3pm. My grand had a great time. The pier is about 2.4 miles down the beach and you can see it from the park. Life guard is on duty till 6:30 and they leave chairs and umbrella till about sundown. You can remain however long . They are currently 15.$ chair and 25$ for the umbrella. We didn't get anything from the snack bar so not sure what they have or prices. Plenty of parking it seems at least at the time I went and it was $15 and I was told I could come and go with my receipt. There is a ramp for handicap accessibility . It was a very nice day trip.

Golf carts are welcomed on the local streets allowing for easy beach and eatery access especially if you don't have beach from accomodations.

There is also a state beach park on the south end of Folly thata really nice with showers, rest rooms, gift shop and etc. last best thing about Folly is they allow wind shades such as Shibumi. Go check out Folly, you won't be disappointed. I promise!

The walking path is less than a quarter of a mile in the actual park, but it does connect to a longer path that goes along the highway.

Stayed in Wild Dunes Ocean Point 43. Terrible customer service and overpriced. The area is…read morebeautiful, but the home was riddled with mold in the air ducts and throughout the home, dirty air filters, two broken couches, filthy floors. Found honeycomb cereal bits under chairs (we didn't have cereal); found a pacifier under the sofa (we don't have babies); the broken couches were propped up with stacks of wooden boards; and both ice makers were broken. These defects were open and obvious. Anyone cleaning or even entering the home would have seen/smelled (mold) the issues. They knew about the issues and still charged top dollar without regard for remediation. Upon arrival, management refused to give us a code to get in on the premise we didn't pay $1k in fees. Please note, this rental was $8500 and was paid in full ahead of time. Management changed after booking and fees were tacked on. Said they contacted our travel agent, but they had not. I stopped communication after they threatened to suspend our codes for access, having not even provided a mode for us to make the payment. Let them know all the issues that were when we checked out. They blamed me for not contacting them to remedy the issues during our stay. Frankly didn't want to deal with them anymore after our initial interaction. That notwithstanding, I asked how they planned to remedy mold, broken couches, and broken ice makers with us in the house. They didn't have an answer to that and ignored it. There were more issues, but these are the ones that will keep us from returning. Please note that I've never left a negative review. The homeowner needs to know what a mess their new management company is running.

It had been more than five years, but last week I took the tour with my three kids and it was just as amazing as ever! We were on a week long vacation and literally added a night in Charleston just for the Ecotour. Both our boat captain and the gentleman driving were incredibly knowledgeable and very approachable. Just good people. They taught us about the ecosystem and various animals that inhabit it. We pulled crab traps and got to handle wildlife as we learned about it. You get time to walk the Boneyard on Capers Island and it is an experience like no other. It is the most pristine beach I have ever seen. Before we boarded our boat to go back to the marina, our captain took time to show my middle kid how to throw a casting net. Very cool people. Perfect mix of education and fun! If you don't do anything else on Isle of Palms - do this!!
