**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.

The Sunset House was everything we expected it to be! It was probably the most well stocked house we've been in. I believe another review said it was a bit outdated; I think it played into the charm of the house. Definitely felt a bit 'old south' which we loved. Also, perhaps a weird thing to praise, but the place smelled incredible. The all-seasons room was a favorite gathering place, as was the dock. All of our galleries are filled with stunning sunset photos and dolphin sightings. Personally, our circumstances when we booked were drastically different when it came time to travel as our daughter broke her leg the day before our departure so the large amount of stairs posed a bit of a tiring challenge for us (yes, island life, lifted homes). Would definitely book again to experience without crutches and a casted leg!

Excellent Alternative to Folly Beach Houses
The house was great. The house was stocked better than any house we have ever rented with everything from cooking utensils to face cleaner in the bathrooms. It was a great opportunity to have my boat at the dock and do water sports and experience the beach (although our week was extremely hot!). Teresa was a great host and you can bet we will be back next year with the family vacation.

The perfect getaway!
Having a house while on vacation makes all the difference! Perfect location: easy to walk downtown and restaurants, a beautiful view, and lots of parking and storage for water toys! We had a ton of space to relax and read in the evenings - the dock was one of our favorite parts of the house! Teresa was a great host - responsive and accommodating! We’d love to stay again!

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.

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!

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.

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!
