The Lighthouse Keeper
Open and airy with stellar ocean views, this multi-level home is ready to welcome you to the beach! You’ll be blown away by the number of windows letting natural light into the living room, enhanced by the vaulted ceilings. Soak in views of the water and the dunes just behind the house from the great room, the two main bedrooms, and the partially covered deck, and enjoy your very own path to the beach and an outdoor shower to welcome you back.
If you’re feeling like barbecuing, the private gas grill outside has a great view and plenty of outdoor seating to allow everyone to enjoy the Folly sunset. But if indoor cooking is more your thing, the full kitchen features a French door fridge, a natural gas stove, a Keurig for your morning coffee, and a kitchen island with three counter stools, all close to the oversized main dining table. The entire home is cooled by central air conditioning.
When it’s time to settle in for bed, you’ll have plenty of options. The first-floor main bedroom features lovely ocean views, a private deck entrance, and an en suite bathroom with double sinks, a standalone shower with a fixed and handheld showerhead, and a soaking tub. One guest bedroom is just to the left of the front door and features a ceiling fan, a double-door closet, and a multi-window view of palm trees and the neighborhood.
Upstairs, everyone can enjoy the loft space with a TV and casual seating while gazing out at the ocean. A guest bedroom features a ceiling fan with a neighborhood view across the entire island to the Folly River. An additional primary bedroom features a lovely private balcony with a broad beach view, multiple windows that provide plenty of natural light, and a ceiling fan. This room includes a private entrance to the second-floor bathroom with double sinks.
All of the beds and bedframes were updated in December 2024, along with all of the great room furniture, to welcome you in comfort
Additional home amenities include fast WiFi, a sofa bed in the loft for extra sleeping capacity, an outdoor shower and hair dryers for beach days, a private boardwalk to the beach, and two adult-size beach cruiser bicycles. Beach chairs, toys, and umbrellas are also provided.
In addition to being just steps away from the beach, guests are only three blocks from the town of Folly. You’ll be close to the Folly Pier and numerous restaurants, all within half a mile of your vacation home! Enjoy a tour by boat or kayak at Flipper Finders Boat & Sea Kayak Tours, just under one mile away. The Morris Lighthouse Heritage Preserve is a short ride to the island’s eastern end, looking out on the historic lighthouse that protected the entrance to Charleston Harbor. All that downtown Charleston has to offer is 12 miles away.

About the area
Folly Beach, affectionately known as "The Edge of America," is a picturesque barrier island located just south of Charleston, South Carolina. This laid-back beach town is a favorite among those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and immerse themselves in a relaxed coastal atmosphere.
The centerpiece of Folly Beach is its expansive shoreline, which stretches for six miles, offering plenty of space for sunbathing, swimming, and beachcombing. The Folly Beach Pier, extending more than 1,000 feet into the Atlantic Ocean, is a prime spot for fishing, strolling, and capturing panoramic views of the coastline.
Surfing is one of the top draws at Folly Beach, with the Washout being the most renowned spot for catching waves. This area is known for some of the best surf on the East Coast, making it a magnet for surfers of all skill levels. For those new to the sport, local surf shops offer lessons and equipment rentals.
Nature enthusiasts will find plenty to explore, from kayaking and paddleboarding in the calm waters of the Folly River to bird watching and wildlife spotting at the Lighthouse Inlet Heritage Preserve. This serene area provides stunning vistas of the Morris Island Lighthouse and is an excellent location for photography.
Folly Beach's Center Street is the heart of the town's commercial district, lined with eclectic shops, surf boutiques, and art galleries. Dining options are abundant, ranging from casual seafood shacks to upscale eateries, all offering a taste of the local cuisine with a side of Southern hospitality.
For a dose of history and culture, visitors can take a short drive to downtown Charleston, where cobblestone streets, historic homes, and landmarks like Fort Sumter await. However, many find that Folly Beach's own charm is enough to keep them entertained, with local events such as the Folly Beach Sea & Sand Festival and the Folly Gras parade adding to the community's vibrant spirit.
As the sun sets, Folly Beach's nightlife comes alive with beachfront bars and live music venues providing the perfect backdrop for an evening out. Whether you're looking to relax with a cocktail or dance the night away, there's a spot for every mood.
In summary, Folly Beach offers a delightful mix of natural beauty, recreational activities, and small-town charm, making it an ideal destination for beach lovers, families, and anyone looking to unwind by the sea.
