To comply with Folly Beach's strict noise ordinance, noise-monitoring sensors are used at the property. NoiseAware is a privacy-compliant smart-home device that measures decibel levels only. It does not listen to or record conversations. If noise levels exceed the legal limit established by the City of Folly Beach, guests will receive a friendly text reminder requesting that the noise be reduced. This helps prevent police violations, fines, and potential revocation of the homeowner's business license. If occupancy is misrepresented or a disturbance is reported, we reserve the right to terminate the rental agreement and require guests to vacate the property immediately without a refund. We are committed to the comfort of our guests and the surrounding community. Please contact us during your stay if there is anything we can do to make your visit more enjoyable.
