About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

1 Block to THE MOTHER SEA. Super easy and quick walk.

We named it the RATHERSHACK because you'd rather be here than anyplace else in the world. We are 'second row' from the beach - which means a 45 second walk for you slow pokes, or 30 seconds for the average beach bum. The cottage we are advertising and scheduling here is the 2 BR 1.5 bath, this one is called the BeachShack. Lots of charm and beach feel decor at no extra charge as this unit has all new beach-style furnishings, flooring, paint, new roof, and new air conditioning installed. All cottages have open floor plans for casual gatherings after your day at the beach. This Unit has a fully stocked kitchen utensils etc with microwave and dishwasher. The 2 BR features a large master with a queen bed and the second bedroom has a full bed, plenty of changing room. Super clean no allergens pet dander etc as we do not allow pets. Units have Free TV, Smart TV and WIFI. Off Street parking for 1 vehicles included. . Gas grill on site available for you grill masters out there. Riding bikes is one of our favorite things to do around around here, and look at all the sugar shacks, moderate homes, and homemade fishing piers plopped right next to the occasional McMansion. Architectural variety on every block. Folly Beach makes no judgment on who you are or where you come from...just bring your flip flops and come as you are.

Family Vacation
This property was absolutely perfect. We were in town for graduation and wanted to be close to the ocean but have one member of our party that cannot do a lot of stairs or a lot of walking. This property was ground level with a few stairs in and only a block off the beach, so easy access. The perfect property for our stay!

A clean, refreshing vacation
The listing leaves nothing to the imagination, it's clean and beautiful and just enough space for my two young daughters, myself and my mother in law. It was the perfect girl vacation. Off the main drag enough that it was quiet at night but still easy to walk to any restaurant. The beach was the perfect distance to be able to come and go from the beach and a short 15 minutes to Charleston. It had plenty of towels, kitchen necessities and space for what we needed. Thank you for a lovely stay, we'll be back!

Beach Shack
We loved this house and our stay at Folly Beach. The house was clean and so cute! Two things to keep in mind are the driveway is shared so someone's car, in addition to yours, will be in front of that cute covered garage/patio area the whole time. The other thing is that the outdoor shower has no door and has generously spaced boards so you can't really use it as an extra shower like we usually do at the beach. That said, it's a great house and area. We would definitely rent this place or from Katt again.

Loved the Beach Shack.
BeachShack was wonderful! Loved the location. Very tastefully decorated! It was perfect for the 3 of us. We definitely would stay there again if we’re in this area! Thanks for sharing your BeachShack with us! The only negative is water pressure & temperature of water when taking a shower but this was discussed with property manager & was assured she will take care of this!!

Beautiful property with only short 3min walk to beach. The beds were very comfy and we loved the covered patio area. We enjoyed our stay and Katt was an excellent host. Check in and out procedures were a breeze. The only thing we wished we would have had at the property was a second TV. Highly recommend as a great beach house!

Super cute, very clean and incredibly convenient! We had never been to Folly Beach before but this property didn’t disappoint! It had everything we never knew we needed. The beach is a literal 45 second walk from the property which was fantastic with a 2 year old. Highly recommend!

Great beach access!
Katt was a very responsive host and the cottage was just as advertised. The only surprise was that the outdoor shower isn’t meant for anything except rinsing off sand. Otherwise, a perfectly sized cottage for 4, if two of your party are small. Fantastic beach access and not too far from the action on Center Street.

Anniversary Awesomeness w/ a Beachy twist
Definitely recommend this property. What a quaint little place. Perfectly located with a short walk to the beach. Everything was as described by the owner. On this adventure we stayed most of our time on the island. Everything you need is right there. We will definitely be back (our 4th trip to Charleston but 1st staying on the island). If, If I had to say anything in the somewhat negative...it would be that this place needs a washer/dryer, because if you stay 6 nights like we did, it would be nice to not have to go anywhere else to wash your clothes. Trust me, that was not a deal breaker. You will not be disappointed by booking this 2 bedroom house. Enjoy!!

Peace amongst the Folly hustle
As someone who's lived on Folly Beach (albeit, 7 years ago), Folly always seemed to buzz with a sense of busy-ness and tourist-filled flow in the months of June, July and August. We got this place for it's easy walk and location to a beach access (since we have young children). I never imagined a place to be so calm and relaxing in the midst of tourist season (especially 2 blocks from Berts! An awesome beach mart). But we found (my wife and I) sitting outside on the patio underneath the umbrella at night after the kids went down to be incredible calm with the ability to listen to the waves crash just 2 blocks away. We often marveled at how nice and quiet it was in the evenings. Would recommend 100 times to any friends and family thinking about visiting Folly.
