About this property

Steps to Downtown, Pier & Beach with Gourmet Kitchen!

This 3 bedroom, 2 bath island-inspired home is the largest of the homes in the Daffodil Compound. Upon arrival you'll be greeted by the large game room, outdoor bar and seating area under the home. As you enter the front door into the large foyer you'll immediately notice the high ceilings and cozy coastal casual design. The main living area is home to a 75" television, large sectional sofa and built-in bookcases and opens out onto a broad screened porch. Through the corridor you will be amazed by the elegant gourmet kitchen, fully equipped with top of the line appliances including Thermador dual fuel range. Just past the kitchen is your indoor dining space that overlooks the tropical courtyard. The master bedroom has a king bed with ensuite shower, second bedroom has a king bed adjoining the full hall bath and the third bedroom houses two twin beds. This twin bedroom has one set of pocket doors but only curtains on the other doorway. All bedrooms include large screen smart televisions. A laundry closet with washer and dryer rounds out the interior. The home also boasts off street parking spaces for up to 4 cars, and a fun game area with shuffleboard, ping pong and Tiki bar below the house. We have both a gas and a charcoal grill near the outdoor shower as well.

This property is just steps away from Center Street and a block and a half to beach and new Folly Pier. If you prefer to stay in, you will find a shared yard with hammock and lush tropical plants. This property shares a communal yard with Little and Wee Daffodil. The homes can be rented individually or all three together as a compound for loads of family fun!

This was my 2nd time staying here in the Big Daffodil and it again, did not disappoint. The place is super clean, the king sized bed is SO comfortable and the house is overall very cozy. It’s also very quiet there so if you’re looking for a place to escape from hectic everyday noise, this is it! And the location is great - so close to Folly’s coffee shops and restaurants. Steven is also very quick to respond if you have any questions which I appreciated! Definitely will return very soon!!

The house is in the perfect location to enjoy all that Folly has to offer. It’s an easy walk to all of the restaurants & bars & only a couple of blocks from the beach. The house is decorated beautifully with a modern kitchen & all the conveniences of home. We spent most of our time relaxing on the comfortable screened in porch. We will definitely be staying here again & I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to stay at Folly Beach or Charleston.
