A wonderful cottage in a great location! The cottage was very comfortable and provided everything we could need. The location was excellent! I felt safe walking our dog early and late. It was such an easy walk to the beach and several restaurants. I would not hesitate to recommend this property or stay here again. It was a fantastic experience.

Perfect location for beach and town, easy access, wanted for nothing, delighted in everything. A perfect place for a couple's getaway. Sunrise and sunset were beautiful on the beach! Beach and town were uncrowded at this time of year (mid-September), just lovely.

About the host

Hosted by Steven Niketas

Host profile image
I am born and raised in Charleston and Michael is a transplant who has lived here for many years. We live just down the street at the end of East Ashley Avenue, almost to the Morris Island Lighthouse. Our other Folly rentals include the rest of The Daffodil Cottages Compound (Daffodil Big 2br/2bth and Daffodil Little 1br/1bth) and two cottages in the east end know as Marshmellow 2br/2bth and Oleander 3br/2bth. It is located on our quiet east end street and offers marsh and ocean views from the front and rear decks. Also, If interested in staying in downtown Charleston for a few nights, we have 3, two bedroom apartments located at the corner of Warren and St Philip Streets that we run through vrbo as well! We own and operate Stella's Restaurant and Mosaic Catering + Events as well. If any questions at all about the area, do not hesitate to reach out. We love our island and are always excited to share information!

Why they chose this property

This little cottage is super special to us. Even though it has the charm of a 1939 beach cottage, it has all the comforts of a modern rental. It's location, just a block from town and a block from the ocean, make it the ideal place for a quick getaway for a couple or small family.

What makes this property unique

We've recently added new appliances and new furniture throughout including appliances, a queen sleep sofa and new porch seating.
