Folly Beach, SC... any thoughts?

Hey y'all...

Just got back from the beach... it was great! We started off going to Hilton Head for a few days. It was nice but out of my financial zone... dinner was really over priced. We eat at the Oyster Factory, The Salty Dog, and Marley's Island Grille... my favorite was Marley's great food, great sangria and great prices... Also the hotel wasn't bad (Holiday Inn on the beach) our hotel room looked out over the ocean.

Then on Wednesday, we packed up and headed for Folly Beach... it was a really cool town. I liked it. The beach and pier were nice. The hotel wasn't so great. It was on the beach and all the rooms overlooked the ocean... so that was nice. The rooms on the other hand, needed an update... big time! Also the pool wasn't all the great BUT you could see the ocean and the beach laying out on the pool deck...NICE! Also the beach here wasn't crowded and there were a lot of shells to search for. We only spent one night here, so we ate at The Crab Shack... it was great place to drink... food was okay. It was within walking distance of the hotel which is why we ate here. Sorry that we didn't make it to the River Cafe... that was the original destination but we really didn't want to drive any where.

On Thursday morning we got up and drove to Charleston and spent a few hours there... and then drove home. We missed our puppy, our TiVo and our own bed.

Over all I really liked Folly the best. I would love to get a beach house there or something again. Hilton Head just wasn't my cup of tea (my hubby liked it, though).

Thank you all for the advise. It was very much on target!!!
