4th Block West End, hear the waves!


Looking for a getaway? The Beach Fox is semi ocean front and just steps from the 5th street beach access and blocks from the lively "downtown" strip of Folly. Two driveways, spacious front porch, inviting living room into the cozy kitchen. Recently renovated and beautifully decorated. Perfect for a small family or a group of friends longing for the beach (or a nap on the hammock).

Inside each bedroom you will find a mounted TV and closet space. The single bathroom has a shower/tub combination and his & her sinks. The kitchen has all new appliances and an open floor plan so you can still be involved in living room conversation. The dining table has 5 chairs but can easily add a 6th if needed. The coffee maker takes ground coffee and has a cleanable filter.

Outside you will find large palms in the front shading the porch and a large oak equipped with rope swing in the back. Feeling sandy? Wash off in our outdoor shower! We have a foot shower in the front of the home. The laundry is located out back in a covered shed. The large front yard gives all the needed grass for a lovely game of bocce. Beach chairs will be provided under the home.

Bringing the kids? You can watch them walk to Folly's Wave Watch Playground at the end of the street. We are not currently dog friendly.

We invite you to come enjoy our Folly Beach as much as we have!

*** We do not provide linens and towels, please bring your own or arrange for rentals before arrival. Address can be provided before your check in email. There are multiple rental companies near Folly, including linens, towels, baby care, bikes, chairs, umbrellas, etc. There is also a Walmart (with delivery options) on your way in.

Love love LOVE this little beach house! It is everything we needed and more than we could have asked for! Perfect for our family of 7! Our kids loved running around in the front yard and all of the beach toys provided and my husband and I enjoyed relaxing on the screened in front porch. It’s really close to town and to 2 different public beach access points which was amazing! Hosts were quick with communication and incredibly accommodating! 10/10 we thoroughly enjoyed our week and will absolutely try to book again!

Perfect for our girls’ weekend!

This charming cottage was perfect for our girls’ weekend with my daughters, daughters-in-law and our youngest infant granddaughter. Location was great, house was just what we hoped for. Ripley was a very responsive host. Everything was great. Wish we could have stayed a few more days.

Girls weekend getaway

We absolutely loved our stay! The house was adorable, clean, and provided all we needed for our beach stay. Communication with the owner was timely and extremely helpful. Any small issues we had (short on beach towels, extra toilet paper) were addressed and remedied very quickly. The outdoor shower and foot wash station were perfect for coming off the beach. Highly recommend this adorable getaway beach house!

Great place! Exactly what we were looking for:)

We had such a great time staying at this Folly Beach house! It was exactly what we were looking for to celebrate our mom's birthday. Awesome porch for hanging out, super close to the beach and a fun beach town nearby with great food and music. So many things to love about our stay at this house. Thanks!

Quick family weekend

We had a few days to spend in Folly Beach with our kids who are in there early 20's. The house was great, good location, not a long walk to the beach, and not hard to drive into Charleston. The house was very cute, clean, and great screen in porch.

The Beach Fox is a gem! Very Accurate listing and photos of this precious beach bungalow. Clean and well appointed and sweetly decorated. This home has been made with love! I was so impressed with the details and the antique furnishing. I love Ripley's style - we cannot wait until our next visit ;)

Perfect Weekend

My family and I spent the weekend here celebrating my birthday and couldn’t have asked for a more memorable stay. Beautiful home with everything you need for a relaxing vacation. We spent most of our time sitting on the front porch listening to the breeze rustling the palm trees. The kitchen and large table worked great for a low country boil. We will definitely be back!

Wonderful House, Great Location

The Beach Fox was clean, lived up to the listing, and is within an easy 7 minute walk to the main drag of Folly Beach. The beach is a minute walk away and there’s a small park just down the block. The front porch is amazing and the hammock was a favorite, there is also ample regular seating to sit out and enjoy the night air and the sounds of the ocean. The kitchen is fully functional and roomy enough to enjoy meals and games. The bathroom offers plenty of counter space and good water pressure. Our family truly enjoyed this cozy home.

Folly Beach Bungalow

What a cute older home! Very Comfortable beds and the kitchen was equipped well. Very close to the beach access! Perfect location! Enjoyed morning coffee on the porch. Advertised as a 2 bath really only one. That was a little tricky with 4 women. Only one toilet. The outside shower was used also one day. It was raining on the am of departure and it was a little difficult washing the towels prior to departure due to the W/D being outside in a little shed but it only covered the appliances. Overall we enjoyed our stay. It was a great girl trip!
