Welcome to Swell Cottage! Awesome Second Row Folly Beach with great ocean views.
Fantastic house with large fenced yard, across the street from beach and walkover. Two blocks from local market, four blocks from Folly pier and center of town. Protected outside shower with hot and cold water to wash off the sand between your toes! Great ocean views from two decks. Enclosed back porch/sunroom just off the kitchen which leads down to the grill. We also provide baby equipment (high chair, baby gates, pak'n'play) so it is one less thing to pack. Spacious eat-in kitchen with a great farm table which seats 8 people and updated stainless appliances and granite counter tops. There is cable TV in the first floor bedroom, living room and 3rd floor. There is a nice GE washer and dryer in the sunroom/enclosed porch on the first floor. The house also has wireless internet service and central heat and air conditioning. There are children's beach toys, boogie boards and one beginner surfboard for tenants use as well as beach chairs and a beach umbrella. Avoid the hassle of the paid parking lots in town and park your car in the private off street parking at the house. There's no need to drive to explore all the cute shops and restaurants since it's an easy stroll to Center Street and the Folly Beach Pier. Our yard is large by beach standards and completely fenced. There are double gates at the driveway entrance which are able close. There is an outdoor propane grill to eat all the great beach cookout meals.
There is a separate storage area for house keeping use only. This space is not occupied or for rent and is not included in the square footage of the rental house.

This was a perfect location and it was so nice having beach accessories available to us, making the experience even better than we could have imagined.
My family loved this place! Awesome location for a family vacation. Close enough to the main strip to walk to everything but far enough away to miss the sound
My friends and I stayed at the cottage for a long weekend and had a great time! The location was great and we really enjoyed going to the beach. Lynn was a great host and very accommodating!
We came here for my sisters bachelorette and we couldn’t recommend this house more! Right across from the beach and the house was stunning and had everything we needed! 10/10 communication from the host as well. Thank you!
I booked this beautiful place to ring in my forties with my sister and best friends. It was clean, comfortable, and convenient! Would definitely stay again.
Basically every review on this house is exceptional, and with good reason. It’s the perfect beach house for a getaway with kids..the ocean is steps away, restaurants are down the street and the house is exactly as advertised. Lynn is very easy to work with, and we had zero complaints. Stay here if you can.
My family was able to enjoy an amazing, relaxing Thanksgiving during a tough time for us. This home made things relaxing, it made it easy for everyone to have their own space, and more importantly it was PEACEFUL!!!! Lynn was super responsive and communicative throughout the booking process!!
We had a great time week relaxing with family. The house was clean and comfortable. Had all the beach amenities you could want. Enjoyed the Weber grill for some burgers and hotdogs one night. Great location to walk to local restaurants and close to Charleston. Would definitely stay here again.
Great house with room for 6 adults and 2 little ones. Right across from the beach. All the amenities you need. Plenty of parking. Great porch to enjoy the ocean view. Loved it.
We had a lovely 3 generation stay at this well-appointed cottage. The location was amazing with convenient access to the beach, parking for 3 cars, and beautiful patios with amazing views. There were more beach chairs and umbrellas than we could possibly use and everything was in working order. Very happy with our stay!
We loved everything about this place! It was perfect! Great location. Plenty of room. Everything we needed in the kitchen. Comfortable beds. Loved the patio! Decor was so cute! It had everything we could possibly need. We loved our weekend here and can’t wait to come back!
We loved our stay! The location was spectacular, close to restaurants/bars, Bert’s market, tennis/picklball/basketball courts, and the beach. This prime location is in a quiet residential part of the island. The listing description is accurate. We hope to visit again.
This is our second year staying at the house. We love the location to the beach. Makes for a easy day with kids!! And Lynn is fantastic! Always responds back to me with any questions I may have.
This house is fantastic! Everything is so walkable & with 5 of us, there was plenty of space. This house has everything you need for a beach vacation - chairs, cooler, tents, games, surf board, boogie boards, and a beach wagon. Restaurants & shops a short walk away. We will be back!!
Our family had an amazing time spending our Christmas at Folly Beach. The house had lots of space for our party of 7 and was in an amazing location close to the beach and was walkable to downtown. The house was very clean and comfortable with all the amenities. The host Lynn was a very responsive host and answered all our questions. I would highly recommend this beach house and our family hopes to return again one day in the future.
Our family has been coming to Folly for the past 30 years and we really like staying as close to the ocean as possible. This house is in a fantastic location. We were right across the street from the beach access and could easily see and hear the water from the porch. We loved sitting on the spacious deck, part of which is covered, which was convenient. The yard is huge, parking is ample (enough for at least 4 cars), the house was clean and pretty. AC worked great, including in the enclosed side porch. We absolutely loved staying here and would stay here again in a heartbeat. It is an older home and is multi-level, so keep that in mind if anyone has mobility issues. We could think of nothing lacking! Great vacation!
We had an amazing stay at the Swell Cottage. Everything was better than advertised. The location was perfect - just steps from the beach and a short walk to restaurants and shops. There was plenty of space for our family of 7. The beach amenities (chairs, umbrellas, boards, toys, mats, cooler etc.) made our beach vacation seamless. This was the first time we didn’t have to buy or rent things for the week. Lynn communicated everything clearly and was so geneelus. We can’t wait to return next year!
This house is in the perfect location! You can see the ocean from the balconies & it’s a short walk to town. The downstairs bedroom is very small which may be difficult for 2 people. There are lots of stairs & only showers, no tub. It was a great place for us to stay!
Great location and huge yard with palm trees and plants. You can see the ocean from the second floor and hear the waves at night. We were able to walk into town with no problem. The beach was only across the street. Our 4 year old loved the loft for sleeping.
Perfect location for beach days, riding bikes, walking to town and just a short drive to historic Charleston. The cottage was a perfect fit for our group of 7 women. Lynn was wonderful to work with and responded quickly to all my questions. Thank you.
