Location: Folly Beach, Charleston Area, South Carolina, USA
Accommodations: Duplex, 4 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 8-12)
Located at 412 East Arctic Ave., Folly Beach SC, 29439, this adorable classic beach cottage is the perfect getaway! The moment you arrive, your stress will magically melt away. Waiting for you upstairs are fabulous ocean views from the rocking chairs on the large front screened porch, and a dedicated pedestrian beach access directly across the street with views of the Pier. You can have sand between your toes within moments!
Talk about cute, this is it! Outside, a sunny exterior, attractive landscaping, large parking area, and outside shower beckon. Inside, you'll ooo and ahhh over the original 1940's white-washed beadboard walls and ceilings, and the original heart pine floors that gleam in the Carolina sunshine. With fun and funky decor, this is definitely not your grandmother's beach house!
This duplex has great flexibility for small to large groups. Two separate floors, each with 2 bedrooms and 1 bath, living room, dining room, kitchen & laundry. Each living room has a full size futon, too, for extra sleeping space (in case Uncle Ralph crashes your beach getaway). Check out the pricing for information on renting upstairs, downstairs, or the whole shebang. Our calendar on this website is not 100% accurate, so please contact us for the real availability.
We have loaded this home up with everything you might need for a relaxing vacation. You'll find us fully stocked with linens, towels, kitchen paraphenalia, beach chairs, coolers, beach toys, books, games, movies and more. Blender? Got it. DVD/VCR? Got it. Peace of mind? Got it.
We also welcome well-behaved pets, so your pups can enjoy a beach vacation, too!
In addition to the beach, there are many other ways to pass the time here. We have a great park two blocks away with a tennis court, basketball court, and new children's play area. We also have a public fishing pier and a boat landing, as well as kayak tours and parasailing. A favorite activity is a stroll at the far end of the island to view the Morris Island Lighthouse with dolphins frolicking in the channel right in front of you.
Folly Beach has a host of good local restaurants on Center Street, which is a short 4 block walk from the house. In addition, the renowned culinary delights of downtown Charleston are a scant 20 minute drive. Toss in the historical cache of Charleston, and the possible diversions are endless! Once you go Folly, you'll never go back.
And remember, at Folly Beach, "Tan Fat is Muscle!"
