Don't think twice about booking! The room was clean and the staff was extremely friendly. It is in a great location, lots of food choices nearby, and about a 10 minute walk to the pier. Loved the amenities to include the use of their bikes. I would not hesitate to book again.

The room was cleaned when we requested and the property/hot tub was very nice. There was only one staff member that made us feel a bit off. Sort of like we weren't supposed to be there. Everything else a fine.

One of the best stays I've ever had anywhere. The staff and service were impeccable. Amazingly clean and welcoming. We met the other amazing guests with whom we had breakfast every morning. The room was perfect for two people with a spacious bathroom, open tile and glass shower, freestanding tub, shuttle to the beach, prepared breakfast and the list goes on. You have to be in good enough shape to make the steep staircases to your room but it's worth it. I almost hate to leave a review because I want to be sure the Inn is available the next time I go.

Our second time at Water's Edge. Lovely setting, friendly staff, and nicely appointed rooms. Unfortunately, this time around, they had to move us to a different room on the second night, which was odd and a little inconvenient in that second room lacked a balcony where we planned on sharing a picnic dinner. Otherwise, a very nice stay.

Water's Edge is a diamond in Folly with a fulsome breakfast. It's only a few blocks walk to the beach but also hidden on a side street away from traffic. I loved this place, especially my Atlantic room that had a jacuzzi tub and a view from the balcony of marshes. I slept like a baby and was made to feel very welcome by the staff. It's a classic B and B in every way. You can't beat it in Folly.
