When you need a break from daily life, pack up the family and head to your cozy cottage on a quiet strip of Folly Beach SC. Pulling up to a quaint beach bungalow painted a cheerful, yellow feels like pulling up to comfort and relaxation – and walking through that red front door means you’ll have your toes in the sand in no time.

Situated between the famed surf spot “The Washout,” and the picturesque Lighthouse Inlet Heritage Preserve, early mornings on Folly are for watching the sunrise over the Atlantic Ocean, walking the dog on the beach, and sipping coffee on the deck. Known as one of best surf spots in the Carolinas, surfers enjoy this quiet time of day when the beach is less crowded and you may catch a glimpse of them as they paddle out to where the surf breaks on the horizon.

Most days are spent on the beach, lounging on the sand and playing in the surf. No need to load up the car – just pack a cooler, grab some towels, and walk a few steps down to the beach. That, after all, is the beauty of having a beach house all your own.

In the evening hop on the golf cart and cruise down to Center Street for dinner and drinks at your favorite local restaurant. You can stay and enjoy the nightlife that downtown Folly Beach serves up or head back home, relax on the screened in porch, and raise a glass to family and friends. Cap the night off with a stroll on the beach under the stars, listening to the waves break on the sand.

Inevitably your time at Folly Beach comes to an end and it’s time to load the family back into the car. The yellow house fades in the rear view mirror as the car travels back down Ashley Avenue and the ocean glistens in the distance. Along Center Street, the shops beckon with beach trinkets, rows of “I HEART FB” T-shirts, and FB decals for your car. While leaving can be bittersweet, the cozy cottage on Folly will always be there waiting to greet you like an old friend whenever you’re ready to return.
