The private deck looks straight out to the ocean, and there’s private access to the beach boardwalk.

A prime location just 20 minutes from historic Charleston, this peaceful retreat is ideal for those seeking to truly get away from it all.

Enjoy breakfast at the center island with seating for four. Or gather your group for dinner at the dining table, which also seats four.

OUTDOOR AREAS

Sip coffee on the front porch, furnished with two rocking chairs. A picnic bench in the carport area invites alfresco meals.

The partially covered deck offers an incredible view of the water. With three lounge chairs, two rocking chairs, and additional seating, your group will have plenty of space to sunbathe and socialize. Fire up the charcoal grill and enjoy a family barbecue.

Great location .
Great location. Easy access to town, and to grocery store. Unfortunately, we came on a week where the weather was really crummy. So we stayed inside and watched the wind, the rain, and the waves.

Location is perfect!!!
The location of this house is perfect! It’s away from all the busy parts of folly, and you have plently of beach area to let kids play and feel safe with minimal folks around. (We stayed July 4th week) The house is not fancy. There are a lot of upgrades needed, but overall it was perfect for a week long vacation with a family that had more kids than adults. We had some issues with the plumbing and someone came out right away. There was a miscommunication about delivery of a new sofa sleeper and once we finally did get one, the property manager even gave us a tiny refund for our bed shortage. You have to use the public beach access to get to the beach but you have a private gate that connects right to a shower to rinse your feet before you head upstairs. That was very convenient. The house was quite affordable for an ocean front and the views each morning were worth every penny!

Fun at Folly
This is a very comfortable beachfront home, with direct beach access. It has all you need to relax, make a meal and to entertain guests... in fact we celebrated my wife's birthday during our stay. Close enough to Charleston's attractions and Kiawah Island to explore or just have beach day. Great stay!

Good location
When we arrived, we saw that the one lamp in the master bedroom had no switch. You had to turn it off and on by unplugging and plugging. There is a table/bookcase as you enter that the second shelf is broken. It does seem that as much as these houses cost per night, that someone would check to make sure that things are working and not broken.
