About this property

Grand Oaks Cottage: Ideal Location!

This charming cottage is a haven tucked off of Folly Road. Only 5 minutes from Folly Beach and 8 minutes from downtown historical Charleston.
The porch over looks a large back yard that is framed in by four majestic Grand Oaks that are draped with Spanish Moss, hence how the cottage was named. While relaxing it is possible to see occasional wildlife!

There is a large driveway for big toys!
Grocery store, restaurant/bar and brewery right across Folly Rd.

Guest access:
The charm of the place is that it's tucked off the road! Rafael Lane can be tricky to find. Get in the median right across from Bohemian Bull restaurant. The dirt road is on the left. After turning onto the Lane, take a right at the first drive and come straight back down a gravel drive. There will be a larger house on right with the cottage after.

Hi! Andy here..Im the owner. I'm originally from Baltimore, Maryland and have made Charleston my home for the last 37 years. My future wife, Dawn, and I enjoy spending time together cheering sports, travel, food, friends and maintaining the grounds of Grand Oaks Cottage...oh and a good cold cocktail.

Why they chose this property

I don't live in a neighborhood. I refer to it as my little slice of heaven that Gid set aside for me to care for and share with others.

What makes this property unique

Great question! I'ts in the middle of owhere but close to everyting. My vision for Grand Oaks Cottage is for it to not be a place for guests to just sleep but be the destination in itself.
