This charming, fully renovated, 2BR 1940's cottage is in a prime location one block to beach. Quintessential Folly layout - a huge front porch, capturing the ocean breeze, living room flanked with two bedrooms, both of which have queen beds and each with en-suite full bath. A light filled kitchen with new appliances and all amenities to whip up a meal on vacation. Only a short walk or bike ride to Center Street for great restaurants and shops. Charleston is less than a 15 minute drive.
The space The Sol Surfers Cottage is your private Folly Beach retreat, just one block to the beach (with an access directly across from the house) and few blocks to the restaurants, bars, Bert's market, and Center Street, just a short walk away. The street is one off the main drag, so it's super quiet, with privacy from the neighbors and traffic. The front screened in porch has plenty of seating, a large dining table and bistro lights for a perfect nighttime vibe.
Our goal was to create a super relaxing space to share with our family and friends. Guests love that we are just one block from the beach (500 ft.), and only four blocks to the bars and restaurants of Center Street.

Such a perfectly clean, quaint, full-of-character cottage! We loved all the renovations, great kitchen, nice living room, bedrooms, bathrooms, lots of windows, terrific outdoor space including campfire, furniture, shower, and front porch! Only complaint would be squeaky springs when just rolling over in bed. And extra pillows and blankets would’ve gotten used. Really LOVED our 5 days there. Would recommend to others and hopefully we can return someday, too!

So glad that you loved out the sweet cottage. Thanks for the great suggestions, we will definitely take them into account.
This is a classy property that has been remodeled and maintained with care. It is a great beach bungalow at a great location. We could walk about a mile downtown along the beach, get breakfast or a bite to eat, and return. Location is a definite plus. Beds were comfortable and clean. The porch is great. We had a great experience.
We had a wonderful stay. Great place for two couples. Porch was great and location was perfect! House had are the necessities. Please note there is only one shower in the home and the parking for two cars is street parking only. You are not allowed to park in the driveway. Would definitely stay here again.
