**Escape to Folly Beach: Where Coastal Charm Meets Private Luxury**

Immerse yourself in the laid-back elegance of this 4-bedroom sanctuary just eight blocks from the sand. With downtown historic Charleston, the Port Cruise Terminal, MUSC, James Island County Park, and shopping all within a short drive, it’s perfectly situated for both adventure and relaxation.

Unwind in style with curated comforts—from a coffee bar and Jacuzzi in the primary bedroom. All bedrooms have elegant black out curtains, blinds, and ceiling fans for those restful night's sleep. Retreat to five smart TVs, blazing Wi-Fi, and a fully stocked chef’s kitchen. Dine al fresco, cozy up by the fire, or enjoy meals in the sunroom or scenic balconies to savor magnificent low country water and marsh views.

No problem with off road parking as you'll find plenty at this home as you enter the long private driveway that suddenly opens into a breathtaking view of the Folly Island Inlet to your ultimate private getaway. Put your boat in the water at the boat landing (4 blocks away) and bring that boat trailer back to the "Sunset" House for safe parking. Plenty of room for that!


Your own private deepwater dock (with water and electricity) beckons for easy access to your boat, quiet sunrise coffees, dolphin sightings, kayaking, fishing, crabbing, swimming, or sunset views bathed in fiery coastal hues only seen from this side of the Island! Embrace serenity in the lush outdoors and observe so much coastal wildlife. Continue to rejuvenate on several decks and nooks or gather around the fire pit beneath a starlit sky.

Equipped with beach chairs, beach wagons, umbrellas, and outdoor furniture, everything is in place for effortless beach days and peaceful nights. Whether you’re seeking a romantic hideaway, a family escape, or a tranquil retreat, this Folly Beach haven blends convenience and privacy for an unforgettable stay.



A golf cart is highly recommended as this home is on the backside of the Island with all of its beauty and peacefulness it is about 8 blocks to dip your toes in the sand at the beach and about 6 blocks from the business district. Walkable but MORE enjoyable and relaxing with a golf cart especially since this house is also located in the middle of Folly Beach and you have about 3 1/2 miles on either side of you to explore. Loaded with wonderful sights to experience such as the bird sanctuary, the historic light house at one end of the Island and the beautiful Folly Beach County Park and Sunset Cay Marina on the other end of the Island with all kinds of wonders in between! It will so enhance your stay.


If you are planning to bring a pet, they must be preapproved at booking or shortly thereafter. Certain guidelines apply such as breed, weight being under 40 lbs., and must be over 3 yrs. of age. A nonrefundable Pet Addendum will need to be completed along with a nonrefundable deposit.

Pricing for parties bringing a boat is not included in the rental rates of the house as many guests do not bring a boat. This is considered an extra service, and you will be given a reasonable price at booking or shortly thereafter depending on your length of stay.

Great location

The house is in a quiet, safe neighborhood- all of Folly is safe. We most enjoyed the river views. The dock was nice for fishing, seeing sunsets and dolphins.The house is nice, decent. Needs some updating all around, but overall accommodations were good.

Perfect place to gather!

We stayed at the Sunset House to celebrate my mother-in-law’s birthday. We had 7 adults and two teenagers and the house accommodated us all comfortably. The location is lovely and the sunset views were gorgeous! We especially appreciated how communicative our host was and how incredibly well stocked the house was, especially the kitchen. With several great cooks in our group it was really nice to find the kitchen had everything we could possibly need. Thank you for a great stay! We hope to be back soon!

Christmas Getaway

The house was so charming and provided plenty of space for our family of 6. It was well stocked and exceeded our needs. The owner reached out to ensure we were able to access the house upon our arrival. Upon entering, the home was beautifully decorated for the holiday and Christmas music was playing...this was a wonderful setting to start off our vacation. At the end of our 10 day stay, we found it hard to leave! We felt so at home! I would book this home again and highly recommend it.

First off, the place is amazing! You are alone with a view that takes your breathe away. The sense of calm and nature are serene. Miss Teresa was very helpful and checked in on us as well. Got to meet Mayor Tim walking his dog - it’s definitely where the locals live.

Beautiful, private Folly vacation home

Our family had an amazing time over Labor Day weekend at the Sunset House. The sunsets over the water were truly breathtaking, and we spent every evening (and much of the day) enjoying the dock and the water, including paddleboarding (so easy to rent them at Charleston SUP Safaris and just paddle down to the house!) We had everything we could need for the weekend, and the house was very comfortable. So many beautiful spaces to relax in, both inside and out. The location is exceptional - close to downtown and the beach but so quiet, peaceful and private, even on a very busy weekend. We definitely hope to return!

A great place to stay..

Hostess was very helpful with activities and local attractions. The property was ideal location being close enough to walk to beaches and all local shops but far enough away to enjoy peace and quiet evenings with fabulous sunsets and star gazing. Dock has plenty of water at low tide and convenient to public launch. No regrets, hope to stay there again!

Enjoyed And Coming Back

Enjoyed our stay and family is planning on coming back. Location is all walking distance to the tourist center and the beach. Best of all is we had the dock all to ourselves. Fishing and crabbing anytime family was back from having an outside meal. The host was very accommodating and made sure our stay was as relaxing and enjoyable the best that she can provide.

The house was great. We loved the magnificent views. The location is wonderful. It has the feeling of being secluded but actually is very close to the beach, restaurants and bars.

Ideal Location

This was our first trip to South Carolina. Sunset House is in a great location to take advantage of the many sightseeing opportunities in the area, as well as the beautiful, relaxing beach and river setting. Teresa's house is warm, inviting and comfortable. It was more than enough room to relax and enjoy family time. It has all of the comforts of home!

Folly Beach Vacation

Communication with our host was easy. She worked to make our stay all that we hoped it would be. Even though it was Father’s Day, our host was quick to find a repairman when the air condition unit stopped working. The view from the sun porch is so peaceful and relaxing. Very quiet neighborhood. Our family has rented this house before and we hope to return again.

Bachelorette party

We had the most AMAZING time at the sunset house. First of all, Teresa is wonderful. She made us feel right at home and made sure we were having a great trip. The house has many spots to hang out and relax and the beds were very comfortable. I was there for my bachelorette party with 9 girls and everyone fit comfortably. The home is cozy and just a short walk into town. I would absolutely stay here again!
