About this property

1004 E Arctic Ave. - Blue Flamingo - Steps From the Beach - Excellent Front Porch and Deck

Please note: This property is in a quiet residential community and Folly Beach has a strict noise ordinance violation rule of 1 strike. Respect your neighbors, keep the noise down, and no parties.

Welcome to a Folly Beach treasure! Bursting with character and a timeless Folly vibe, Blue Flamingo is a wonderfully fun 4 bedroom 2 full bathroom home with easy beach access just steps away. Enjoyed by countless families and groups of friends over the decades, this beach house gem has been freshly updated under new ownership and management. While maintaining its vintage charm, including artwork original to the home, Blue Flamingo has been rejuvenated by new kitchen appliances, a renovated primary bathroom, new light fixtures, new window treatments, and many other upgrades throughout.

Blue Flamingo is a peaceful oasis as well as a perfect gathering place. A favorite hang-out spot for guests, the 30-foot screened front porch facing the ocean is wonderful for sipping morning coffee, reading, and enjoying company any time of day. With dining seating for eight and additional comfy chairs for simply enjoying the ocean view, the porch has been filled with much happy chatter and many celebrations over the years.

Blue Flamingo's expansive rear porch, providing yet another comfortable venue for entertaining, features a dining table that seats eight, a teak bar designed for four, and a gas BBQ grill. In addition, the deck has an inviting outdoor living room area accommodating eight or more guests. The home's bedrooms include a primary bedroom with a king bed and three guest rooms offering one king bed, one queen bed, and a retro bunk room with two twin beds. After a day at the beach, a fully enclosed outdoor shower a few steps down from the back deck and accessed from the drive-under is a delightful way to rinse off the sand and salt. A ping pong table, a second full-size fridge, and a laundry room with a side-by-side new washer and dryer are on the lower level. Parking at Blue Flamingo is a breeze, with ample off-street spaces in both the driveway and drive-under.

Blue Flamingo is ready to welcome back its guests who have already made cherished memories in this special place and to introduce new visitors who will get to know its charm and want to return year after year.
Book your stay now and embark on a beach vacation that will leave you with lasting memories and a desire to return to Blue Flamingo time and time again.

Announcements:
Some welcomed news in 2024 is The City of Folly Beach will be re-nourishing our beach which is much needed!
Although not confirmed by the city, work is expected to start around early March until mid-August 2024 and will be focused one block at a time. While we expect this to be a net positive to everyone (more sand and larger beaches), there is a small chance that your closest beach access point may be impacted during your stay.
The city hasn't provided any further information on more precise dates, scheduling, or sequencing. But you can stay informed with the latest by visiting the City of Folly Beaches website.
Please note that our office does not have any more information than what is posted online, and we are not responsible for any beach disruptions caused by the re-nourishment during your stay.

MyOceanRental strives to ensure peace for all our guests, neighbors, and the community of Folly Beach. To comply with Folly Beach's new strict noise ordinance, we now use noise sensors in our properties. NoiseAware is a smart home device that measures decibel levels, is 100% privacy compliant, and does not listen or record. If the noise level exceeds the legal limit for FB, you will receive a friendly reminder text message to turn the noise down. This will help avoid any violations with the FB police that can result in fines and revoke the homeowner's business license.

Suppose the occupancy is misrepresented or a disturbance is reported at the property. In that case, we reserve the right to terminate your rental agreement and will require that you vacate the property immediately without a refund. However, we are committed to your and our community's comfort, so please let us know if we can do anything during your stay to make it more enjoyable.

The City of Folly Beach licenses this property as a vacation rental property. LIC043771

Great Location Cool Vibe
Great location steps from the sand. Cool Vibe. It is an extremely clean, updated beach shack, with plenty of outdoor space to add to the size of the house. Everything was provided. They communicated very well and used text for easy access.

Cute House
Overall our stay was great! The house is smaller than we anticipated. We stayed with 4 kids and 2 adults. House was clean and well equipped. Only small issue we had was the toaster didn’t work but we didn’t bother to call manager. Little tight space for a family of 6 people but LOVED being steps from beach access!

This house is really cute and is right across the street from beach access! It was super clean and had plenty of extra necessities…. Something you don’t find often… nice new appliances, very nice bathrooms, comfortable beds… and the property management was great to deal with! Would stay here again!
