Nautical-themed Studio less than a block to sea, sun and fun!

We are excited to bring you the newest and cutest members of The RatherShacks family: Itty Shack and Bitty Shack. The concept came to us through customer feedback, extensive research, and many drinks. Riding the successful trend of our Tiny Shack and the increased interest in smaller, affordable beachside dwelling, we crafted these twin units just for your enjoyment in their own little compound right in the middle of the rest of our Shacks. If you have been inducted into the Sumo Wrestler Hall of Fame, or your significant other can install the Christmas star atop the tree without a ladder then this is not the place for you. Each of these micro units is approximately 11ft x 12 ft and sport a queen-size bed for your comfort, and brand new tile and glass appointed bathrooms, along with funky ceiling lines and headboards. An eat–in bistro style table or Al-Fresco set of chairs outside will give you the max relax dining experience you have been searching for. A dedicated outdoor shower (one for Itty and one for Bitty) lets you wash away the sand and surf, just in time to grill the burgers at the shared community grill in the back yard. Efficiency style kitchenettes allow you to make a gourmet pot of coffee, toast that bagel, or microwave the leftovers from one of the many culinary gems our island has to offer(oh, and did we mention all this is 15 minutes from the award winning restaurants in downtown Charleston?).

This was the perfect place for me and my husband. Like staying in a tiny house! We had everything we needed. Just a short walk to the beach and was nice to be able to walk into town and grab a bite to eat and shop. Will certainly be staying there again. Folly Beach is beautiful.

Cute and Convenient!

As a Charleston local, Folly beach is one of our favorite spots. The Itty Shack was not only adorable, but well stocked and clean. We were able to conveniently walk to restaurants and the beach. The off street parking was also a huge bonus. Katt was very responsive and helpful, which added to a great staycation! We’ll definitely be back!

Perfect for me

At the beach, all I need is a place to lay my head and take a shower! This place is perfect! Easy access to the beach, very clean, great parking for one car, close to the fun and food. Very comfy bed.The outside shower was a plus for coming off the beach too. It was a great time and will visit again! Oh, and I briefly met the hostess and she was super nice!!

Small space, big comfort

Perfect size for two people! My husband and I spent a long weekend in the Itty Shack for an early anniversary trip. Folly Beach is our favorite place to stay because of the proximity to everything the Charleston area has to offer. We found the place to be very comfortable and lacked nothing! Super clean, off street parking, and all the amenities you would need even in a small space. We can't wait to book our next trip!

Itty Shack

This is a very compact space with limited storage space. It is close to the beach but may need car or golf cart to get to restaurants if you have limited mobility. Unfortunately, it rained often during my stay which limited my use of outside amenities and space.

Great location, very clean

My husband and I stayed here for a week after Labor Day. It was exactly as described and had a lot of amenities for a micro unit. It was only a 1 minute walk to the beach and was very convenient that the host provided beach chairs and towels. The unit was very clean and there was a cute sitting area outside. The bathroom could use a shelf, but that is not really a complaint. Large TV, comfy bed (which is raised to store your luggage - very helpful), all in all great place. Host was very responsive.

This property is tiny but mighty! It was perfect for the two of us, and even better than the pictures show. We walked to dinner and back, caught a sunrise and enjoyed a stroll on the shore. Bonus - the owners were helpful and personable as well!
