About this property

Steps from the Beach~ 99 Steps Away

One of Folly's Best, 99 Steps Away. This adorable 4 bedroom, 2 bath Folly home is one of the few remaining ‘streetcar’ houses on Folly Beach. This classic home is also only 99 steps away from the beach, which inspired the property name. Located on the quiet west end of Folly, this home is the perfect spot for a relaxing beach trip. This home features plenty of outdoor space to enjoy with the family. If you want to relax on the deck while grilling or step inside to the screened in porch where you can have an outdoor meal or lounge on the sofa and listen to the waves just across the street.

This updated classic has all the comforts plus a little extra. The living room and dining room feature windows that fill the room with natural light. Stay connected on your stay with WIFI and Smart TVs throughout. A pass through between the kitchen and dining room means you can always feel connected to your guests.There is even a special board game wall that features games for all ages. The kitchen is fully equipped with appliances to create a memorable dish. This home can sleep 8 guests with a comfortable King bed and smart TV in each bedroom. The primary bedroom has an en-suite bathroom with a separate closet that features the shower, the washer/dryer, and a private entrance to the backyard. The bedrooms in the front of the home are connected. The front bedroom features a private entrance to the home through the screened porch. Stay cool in the summer as the HVAC was replaced in ‘24.

Please note: charcoal/propane/firewood and cleaning of grill is the responsibility of the guest. There are multiple single step transitions on property.

Howdyshell Getaway

Thank you so much for a wonderful stay. We just moved back to VA from Texas, after 12 years. We missed Folly Beach so much! The house was perfect for our family. Rustic, older, and kept nice. Literally 99 easy steps to the beach. Thanks again for such a wonderful stay.

Great quirky house close to beach

The house is from the 30s and has a great personality! Beach access is very easy. Property was clean. We had a couple of small issues the 1st evening and by 10:30am the next morning they had already came over and resolved! Property is close to “downtown” Folly Beach but far enough away to be quiet. Only suggestion is it would be nice if all the rooms had a full length mirror instead of just the back bedroom. Overall, we loved it!

Review

The pictures need to be updated, the house needs some maintenance. The pictures look nice, but the entire house is leaning, the back yard looks much different in the pictures. The porch and lattice needs work. The lattice under the house is falling down, the grill that's available doesn't had propane to use. You need to purchase that! The house is ok but nothing extra for the price. Plenty of parking, clean house, but there not much else to say.

Location, location, location. If you can’t afford a beachfront property, this is the next best place. We counted the steps… it’s true, 99. We set up our spot in the morning and it was easy to walk back to the house for refreshments and bathroom breaks. I have rented many houses on Folly and Isle of Palms and I really think this is the perfect location. Mostly crowd free during the week.The house… it was perfect for us - 3 adults, 1 child, 1 dog. It was very clean. The kitchen has all the cooking necessities, nice pans and cutlery. We didn’t really cook a lot, but if we did it would have been no problem. Note, the house is old…. Built in 1948! There are features that are so interesting. I would have loved for the house to have pictures of it through the years. Oh the memories that house must have! However, as a result, the floors are a bit worrisome. I feel like it needs a bit more attention, structurally.All said, I would 100% rent it again. The rental company that manages it was very responsive to some air conditioning concerns we had. Turns out that a 78 year old house needs time to recover after the initial move in. Within 24 hours the air was comfortable and the refrigerator recovered from us loading it up with tasty snacks and beverages.I highly recommend this house for a fun stay on Folly!

Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We're thrilled you loved the location—those 99 steps to the beach really are perfect. Your kind words about the cleanliness, kitchen, and our responsive team mean the world to us. We appreciate you noting the character of our 1948 gem! You're right that older homes have their quirks, and we're always working to maintain everything properly. Your feedback about the floors is valuable and helpful. We'd absolutely love to welcome you back on your next Folly getaway. Thank you for choosing us!
