Experience the timeless charm of The Love Shack, a beautifully updated cottage ideally situated for both relaxation and convenience. Perfect for families and couples, this cozy retreat offers direct beach access just 40 feet from the front steps, placing you a mere short stroll from the surf. Downtown Folly Beach’s vibrant restaurants and shopping are only three blocks away, making it easy to explore without the need for driving or parking.
One of Folly’s original cottages, The Love Shack retains its nostalgic appeal while offering modern comforts. The expansive front deck invites you to enjoy coastal breezes and ocean sounds, providing stunning views and a perfect spot to unwind. From nearly every room in the house, you can hear and see the ocean—immersing you in the tranquil seaside ambiance. For panoramic vistas, a rooftop deck over the porch offers sweeping island views.
Inside, the 650-square-foot home has an open living and kitchen area featuring a unique vintage element, blending vintage character with modern amenities. Both bedrooms are equipped with 42" flat-screen TVs, ensuring entertainment after a day at the beach.
Set on a corner lot, the property boasts a fenced backyard shaded by mature live oaks—ideal for pets and children. With only 10 steps from the backyard to the yard, access is easy for all ages. Parking is hassle-free with four off-street spaces at the rear and additional parking in front.
Fully licensed for short-term rentals (License Number LIC040687), The Love Shack delivers a nostalgic, comfortable escape just minutes from the historic charm of Charleston and the endless sands of Folly Beach.

About the host

Host profile image
After a long career, I chose Charleston as my retirement home. What's so interesting about that is...I traveled several years in search of my perfect spot and ended up only 100 miles from home.
Charleston is multi dimensional in what it offers. I enjoy the history, culture, art, music, and academia of downtown, but cherish most the beach, boating, and bohemian attitude of our barrier islands (Folly). So, for now, I lawyer a little with my downtown firm, and spend most of my time on the beach, water, or traveling. I now have two grandchildren in the area...so my traveling is taking a second seat.

Why they chose this property

I chose Folly Beach for its relaxed atmosphere and convenience to downtown Charleston. I'm able to enjoy the beach just as I did as a teen at Folly because it has retained its identity.
