The house is a quick walk to the beach and 7 blocks from Center Street where you will find all the fun and funky Folly Beach shops and amazing restaurants. An open floor plan with natural light, the living room area is elegant yet comfortable for beach living with a Smart TV, full cable package and wireless internet. The dining area has a large table with two additional leaves to accommodate up to 6 people. You will fall in love with the spacious screened-in porch located just off the living room with a table set for alfresco dining and a separate lounge area. Just off the porch is a separate sun deck with full-size chaise lounge chairs; it's a great spot for lounging and drinks with friends! The house has 3 bedrooms with a King in the primary and queen size beds in the secondary rooms. The primary bedroom is bright and comfy with a private bathroom and a walk-in shower. The second and third bedrooms are relaxing with large closets and dressers in each room. The second bathroom and linen closet are off the hallway and this bathroom has upgraded finishes with a tub and shower. Downstairs makes for a fantastic kids area or 'mancave' with a foosball and ping-pong table. There is also a washer and dryer downstairs and an outdoor shower-sink-toilet for cleaning up when you get back from the beach. Outside guests will find delicious kumquats, mandarin oranges, pecans and figs growing on the property so feel free to pick and enjoy what you like!

One house contains long-term tenants (who use the carport and share usage of the outdoor shower) and the second house is Family Tides (front unit with partial ocean view) which is available for short term rental.

We really like the location, close to the best but away from the party atmosphere. It was quiet and the interior was very clean. The exterior needs some work— probably just the end of the season. If you have disabled folks, be aware of quite a few steps to get into the property. We would come again, for sure, though. ##### Marc C.
