Flip-Flops Off, Fun On: 5br, Game Room, Ocean Views & Sunset Decks for 12!
Oceanfront sunrises, a private elevator, and space for the whole crew—all wrapped into one four-story Folly Beach retreat —no shoes, no streets, just the Atlantic at your feet. Private, four-story escape hosts 5 bedrooms, 5 full bathrooms, an elevator and a top-floor game room with pool table. Planning a beach wedding, reunion or surf safari? This home was built for together-time and unforgettable photos.
This four-story custom-built beach home has everything you need for a fun, comfortable, and carefree stay. With the beach quite literally right behind the house, you`re just a few steps away from the sand — go barefoot from the porch and straight into the ocean. From the moment you arrive, the views and the sea breeze set the tone for a perfect coastal escape!

Great communication with host. Easy check-in and check/out. Excellent property for families thanks to fenced, grassy backyard. Secure property. Well appointed kitchen space. Beach views from every room. Spacious garage. Master bathroom shower was especially appreciated!
Beautiful venue wonderful service great communication perfect wedding! I hope to stay in the future and recommend for vacation or special events. I’m so happy to choose this place to marry my husband, and will always hold special place in our hearts
Exactly as listed, even better in person.The garage, the elevator, the privacy of each room, its 100% true to its listing. Nothing exaggerated. Beautifully furnished too.
We rented this property as a home base for my son's wedding week in Charleston. We had family from all over the country coming to town and needed a place to gather that would accommodate a larger group at different times of the day - this house was just what we needed! Everything was as described - most importantly for me, the wheelchair accessibility! I was able to get everywhere in the house (upstairs, downstairs, outside, and to the beach). The house was cozy but big enough to fit all 12 of us, ages 5 - 55, and everyone had a place to sleep! The kids enjoyed the pool table room, outside deck, large yard, beach access, and town of Folly. I was impressed with Ross and his quick responses to all of my questions - he truly put me at ease and helped with anything we needed. I would 100% recommend this property to anyone looking to gather their family at the beach!
Perfectly accommodated the wishes and needs of our family. Clean , spacious, right on the beach. Bunk room for kids was amazing and suites for adults were wonderful. Hope to return !
Every year there are 9 of us older adults that spend a week at the beach. This house is perfect. Love that all the bedrooms face the beach, elevator comes in handy. The layout is great. Perfect for our group.
We hosted our intimate wedding with our closest friends and family. This house was the perfect fit and everything was amazing. All of the beds are very comfortable and we would definitely book this house for future family trips.
We are a group of older couple who have been vacationing together for 20+ years. This was our first time at this location and i I can say is it was wonderful… the house, the location, the elevator… everything! We liked it so much we booked it again for next summer.
It was a great place for our wedding. We had 50 guests and it fit everyone nicely! We had a hiccup when we checked in but the landlord was very responsive and fixed it. Such a good open space with beautiful views.
The house is one of the coolest houses my family and I have stayed in. The floor plan and layout made sense and took advantage of beautiful ocean views.
The house is beautiful and spacious and was perfect for our family gathering for our daughter's wedding weekend on Folly Beach! The setting on the beach is perfect... fabulous views and balconies from the living room and kitchen and all but one of the bedrooms! The elevator made bringing suitcases and supplies inside and taking them out again very easy. The yard and walkway to the beach was perfect. Everything was wonderful! Ross was always quick to respond to texts and emails and was great about communicating and accommodating our requests. Highly recommend this house for your family vacation on Folly Beach!
We held our wedding at A Shore Thing and it was better than we could have imagined. The homeowner was communicative and easy to work with leading up to our event and our stay with family made the weekend so special. The sunrise/sunset views from the house are spectacular, we loved everything about the home and our stay!
The house can accommodate large families or friend groups. Virtually every room has ocean view and lots of bathrooms. Tons of socializing space and great enclosures on deck and a garden that accesses the beach immediately. Great communication with Ross and listen to his suggestions. Folly town is fantastic find; lots if cool bars, great music and cool ice cream shop for the littles-“Shoobies.” Pool halls too. Tides is a great music and oceanfront restaurant for a fancy night out with music. The rooftop Taco restaurant more casual with music too snd cool with kids. Great vibe, Ashley st is a great walk, or you can Uber. Enjoy as we did.
This house was perfect and amazing. There were 16 of us and the house accompanied us very well. The kitchen was stocked with anything you might need. The screened in porch was large and enjoyed by everyone, especially the rocking trips. The kids especially loved the bunk room. The house is truly exceptional. And the beach is right in front of you. Best rental we have ever stayed in.
The property met all our needs. The layout was well thought out. It was an enjoyable week! We will be looking forward to coming back! The beach was very peaceful, great for young grandkids to play and explore! Would suggest more coffee mugs and freestanding vacuum for quick sand pickup. Otherwise no recommendations.
We were here two years ago and returned for our family vacation. We were excited to come together yet again and was not disappointed. For a somewhat large group it was the perfect venue to come together when we needed to but yet enough space to not get on each other nerves. We’ve lost a few family members but having such a great place to come together again was awesome! Thank you and until next time.
This was a great rental for our group of 12 adults and 3 children! It was very clean, had a great view of the ocean, and Ross was very responsive to any concerns we had. A regional thing to note is apparently hairdryers are not commonly provided in rental houses in Charleston which we didn't know, so we didn't bring any and had to buy some. In any case, great house and we enjoyed it very much!!!
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this home. The beach views were tremendous and we appreciated that the bedrooms had equivalent amenities (dedicated bathrooms, closets, etc).
We made some large meals in the kitchen and found it very well stocked with a variety of pans, utensils, etc. Our only issue was the gas oven was a little finicky and had trouble running at a lower temperature.
Ross answered all of our questions quickly. My family gave me kudos for booking a nice home :)
Overall great stay. The house could use a few more basics like bath towels and a few beach chairs or an umbrella would be lovely so we didn’t have to pack so much stuff. Things get pretty sandy. A few more rugs and tubs to wash feet would be great. Central vac didn’t work great. Having another vacuum or mop on sight to use would be nice. Overall the house was just as advertised and fit out needs well. The view is beautiful and the backyard is amazing. We enjoyed our stay very much.
