Great Family Beach House and 5% off weekly stays, last minute or mobile booking!

Year round is wonderful at Folly Beach, and Dolphin Cottage makes a beach vacation in this eclectic little seaside town even better. Now through the end of the year, we are offering an additional 5% off for mobile bookings and/ or last minute booking (reservations made less than 14 days out of arrival date). Only one of these promotions is available, on top of a weekly stay.

The cottage is named after a dolphin that was rescued from inside the house after Hurricane Hugo, Dolphin Cottage offers a light, open space to relax with family and friends. Even better, canine family members are welcome too! The maximum number of pets is 2, and there is a non-refundable pet fee of $150.00 for one pet and $200.00 for 2 pets. This goes towards extra cleaning and pest control services. Thank you for understanding!

The kitchen, dining, and living areas come together under a vaulted ceiling, and a wall of windows overlooks a secluded garden where the large deck flows through the tropical greenery. Bamboo floors and bright colors with whimsical accent walls hand-painted by the owner create a cool and easy place to spend a vacation.

The combination of quality linens, a king in the master bedroom, a queen bedroom, and two twins bedroom, ensures a good night’s sleep. The two artistically-decorated full baths are generously-sized. The kitchen has everything needed for cooking and sharing meals together, and the private garden deck offers a shady respite from the sun and an outside grill. There is also a washing and dryer.

Only a few blocks to the beach, playground, tennis courts, pickleball and Center Street, with shops and restaurants. This house is the perfect location for being in the mix of everything that is Folly Beach. And of course, historic Charleston is only 12 miles away, where you can admire the architecture, soak up the city's vibrant history, view art exhibits, and even book a pirate tour with the whole family.

Wonderful, cozy home that had lots of nice home-y touches and was ideally situated with an easy walk to the beach or to the shops/restaurants. We enjoyed the pirate mermaid festival on the Main Street and loved the cute nautical themed rooms with little fish everywhere. The kids especially loved being there and were super sad to leave when check out day arrived. We would definitely rent this place again if it’s available the next time we are in the area.
