We are proud that The RatherShacks is not just a great Folly Beach Vacation Rental, it’s also our home. We are Sam and Katt and we live in our very own Shack. We met in the cold Granite State of New Hampshire, fell in love, sold our houses, threw away the snow shovels and bought us a perfect shack in paradise. At first we lived in the HappyShack right here in the middle of all the action. Sometimes one would lead to the other… you know the drill. We fixed up all the Shacks – SurfShack, ChillShack, BeachShack, TinyShack, ShoreShack, HippieShack and decided to share them…. and so here we are, thankful that great people like you are finding us.
The RatherShacks spans the 2 blocks from 318 E Ashely Ave to 317 E Cooper Ave encircled by privacy fencing making it a unique community. The other Shacks in our community are HippieShack and SandShack, IttyShack, BittyShack, ShoreShack, and HappyShack. Our 3 Bedroom, ShadyShack and BreezyShack and our Whole house properties SurfShack, TabbyShack, & Follitude are more private and outside of The RatherShacks. Come stay with family or friends where you each have your own living space and can come together to share the community and add another chapter to our story.
Thank you for helping us live our dream! We live on site so feel free to stop in for a cold one or get advice on where to go hide out, or where to step out and kick up your dancing shoes. Chances are good that if there’s something fun happening on the island, we’ll be headed that way too. We are right here if you need us and if you prefer to be alone, we’ll give you all the privacy you want. After all, we want The RatherShacks to become your home away from home.
Most of our guests come back year after year and we are sure you’ll understand why once you come! Because at the end of the day you’d RATHER be here than anywhere else in the world!
