Welcome to the "Spirit of Folly", a vacation rental that embodies the long history of the Folly Beach community.

The two-bedroom one bath unit has two luxurious king beds and an expansive backyard with classic old oaks providing shade. For a more spacious shower (small shower inside) use the enclosed outdoor shower behind unit C and shared by both units. Walk out the back yard for direct access to the City Park, with a playground, tennis & basketball courts, and a dog park. The unit boasts a full kitchen and multiple off-street parking spots (front and back). Please note you will need to navigate two steps down to access the property. Not enough room? Rent Unit B (listing #2847570) to double the size. Owners live upstairs.
We had a nice time. Close to the beach and not far from Charleston. Outdoor shower was great and we definitely made use of the clothesline and beach chairs provided by owner
Pros: Short walk to the beach, very clean apartment. All the basic needs met for a basic basement level apartment . Communication was excellent. Walking distance to pier area . Dog park across street . Parking available at front and back . Parking available closer to the public beach access also if mobility is an issue . Outdoor shower. Water hoses available to wash feet/ beach gear . Cons: bathroom is extremely small and the shower is basically unusable, it is a large step up into shower with a curtain that blows in on you and soaks the bathroom floor ( used outdoor shower which was clean and met needs in Hot month of July ). Not suitable for those with handicaps as there are step steps at front and back door though it is only a couple of steps . A wheelchair nor walker will fit in bathroom . Terrain uneven outside . Also , public beach access points have steps up onto boardwalks over sand dunes .
This home was perfect for my 2 night girls trip! The home was immaculate and the outdoor shower was the best! Perfect distance from the beach with chairs and towels available to borrow. Would definitely stay here again!
We had a wonderful stay! The outdoor shower was a favorite and was a Godsend when bringing 3 kiddos back from a day at the beach. We especially enjoyed the dog park right across the street for our little pug, Flint. The location is perfect for a relaxing vacation to Folly Beach!
Meg was very communicative and made check in and out seamless. The house is perfect for a weekend stay at the beach. Convenient to the beach and lots of good food. The outdoor shower is truly amazing. Would definitely come again!
This was the perfect little place to stay for a weekend. Such a great location to the beach, downtown Folly, and less than 30 minutes to Charleston! Such a clean and beautiful house. The owners were so kind and helpful throughout our stay.
Exactly what we were looking for. Close enough to the beach and downtown for easy access but set back enough that itâs a quiet neighborhood. All amenities you need for a visit to this cute town. And as other reviewers say, Meg was friendly and welcoming and responsive.
The property was very clean and close to the beach. The host was excellent to work with and had wonderful communication. We had a 3 year old and 1 year old with us. Worked prefect to walk to food and beach.
We had a great time. We were able to make dinner a few nights and close enough to Center street that we could walk to get a meal. It was a short walk to the beach which was perfect with two small children. We had a great time and Meg was a perfect hostess.
Meg and Dan were super responsive and available whenever we had any questions. The house was perfect for what we needed, a great space for my toddler to run around and for my dog to hang. Accessible to the beach, would recommend!
