About this property

Sandcrab - Quaint Ocean View Cottage, Beach Access Directly Across

Ocean view vintage beach charm with fenced yard, screen porch and rooftop deck!

Perfectly suited to couples or a small family, nothing beats a Folly vacation in this 1930's era classic beach cottage – from the painted wood floors to the vintage wicker and rattan - this island home is relaxed living with all the comforts of home. While enjoying expansive ocean views from the porch and roof top deck, you'll have the beach breeze morning to night and the vast starry 'dark' sky after sunset. Situated just steps from the beach access and with your own private outdoor shower, popping to and from the house makes beach living easy.

What's nearby:
The heart of Folly with quintessential beach stores, locally-owned restaurants and bars lies a short 30 min walk or 10 min bike ride away (12 blocks). Within 5-6 blocks you'll also find access to basketball, pickle-ball & tennis courts and the “wash-out” surf destination. One end of the island boasts the Folly beach County Park, and the other holds pristine views of the historic Morris Island Lighthouse. During your stay, take advantage of the many outdoor activities & lessons offered on the island, including fishing, surfing, biking, kayaking, boating, and much more. A 12-mile/15 min drive will take you to historic downtown Charleston, where you can enjoy all that the Holy City has to offer.

Quaint little cottage

The house was only about 50 yards from the beach and the rooftop deck is like the pictures online, you can see and hear the ocean from up top. There was a nice hammock under some shade in the yard. We like to go to the beach and the proximity for that was awesome. The house is old and some of the furniture inside is old, too. There were 4 of us and it was small but the online listing gave the square footage so it was accurate. Also because the house is old the floor has a significant slope and if you have mobility issues you would need to be mindful of that. The bathroom in the primary bedroom is really small. While the kitchen was small it had updated appliances. We had one small problem and the property manger fixed it in less than five minutes which was very impressive and appreciated. If you like access to the beach and spend most of your day at the beach this place works just fine.

Great location but outdoor space needs some love.

The house is directly across the street from the beach and good for a couple or small family. We found the space to be comfortable and the screened in porch was nice. The roof deck needs some love with the paint chipping everywhere and sadly the Adirondacks in the yard had lots of rusty screws and paint chipping as well. Not a safe spot for our son to sit. Also basics like hand soap wasn’t available in the kitchen.

As pictured, less populated beach

Really well-appointed decor, as described & shown in photos. Post-hurricane stay, lots of surfing views from top porch. Property management highly attentive. 20/5 min. walk/bike ride to dining & grocery. Great books/games. Note 2 sets of stairs to beach, tiny master bathroom, and uneven floor transitions between rooms. New house construction adjacent lot, but local rules prohibit on federal holidays.
