Seaside Retreat, Steps to the Beach, Pet Friendly, Huge Porch

Come enjoy this newly renovated beautiful two bedroom retreat. This third row home has all the amenities you'll need to enjoy all that Folly Beach and Charleston have to offer.

More details about the house: The beach is just 500 feet away, so close you can hear the surf in the evenings from the spacious screened porch. Bert's convenience store is just two blocks away for last minute supplies. If you want to eat in occasionally, you'll love our fully stocked kitchen. We also have a gas grill for you to use. If you prefer, Center Street is only four blocks away and downtown Charleston is just 20 minutes away. Both will provide all the dining, shopping and night life you'll need on your vacation.

Wonderful place to stay and definitely would love to stay here again. There was plenty of space, a nice screened in porch and back deck. A block from beach access, a block from a lovely park & dog park, and a short walking distance to Center Street. Communication with the host and property manager was always easy, quick and super helpful. Thank you Will & Kevin - we had a wonderful stay and as always, love Folly Beach.

Great dog-friendly beach stay!

House is great for a family and their fur companion. Large comfortable open living space with 2 bedrooms was plenty of room for our family of 4 and our dog. Very close to the beach with a nice mostly fenced yard and great beach extras.

Back again!

We have stayed at this property many times now and love it every time. A great location close to the beach and close enough to downtown to walk but not so close that it keeps you up at night. The amenities are just what we need and we enjoy hanging out on the enclosed porch. We love coming to Folly and plan to again next year!

Excellent stay. Great communication with the host. The home was clean, comfortable and just one block from the 5 East beach access. After putting up a temp. baricade to the back corner of the house, the yard became completely enclosed for our small dogs to roam off leash. The outdoor shower was a plus, and we enjoyed relaxing on the screened-in porch in the evenings. We would stay here again.

Just wrapped up our second stay at this wonderful VRBO, and it was every bit as perfect as we remembered. The home is clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed. The walk to the beach is easy, and with fewer crowds this time of year, we had plenty of space to relax and enjoy the ocean.We especially loved spending time on the screened-in porch. It was peaceful, breezy, and a favorite spot for both us and our dogs. It’s such a gift to find a place that feels effortless, and the host truly makes everything so easy from start to finish.Already looking forward to our next visit. We’ll definitely be staying here again
