The Folly Barrack House has a spacious king master bedroom with twin size daybed and full private bath and smaller kids room with twin bunk beds. Living room has double sofa sleeper. Galley style kitchen with plenty of cabinets and counter space. Kitchen is fully equipped including extras such as a blender, toaster, and mixer. All rooms have LCD cable T.V. with HBO and Starz in main den/sun room area as well as a Blu-Ray player.  Very open floor plan with lots of natural light. Sun room also has a double size sofa sleeper for that extra person that tags along.  Beach access just across the street and beach view from the den/sunroom.  Second bathroom just off the living room. Split level decks off of the sun room. Large yard with plenty of parking for all. Plenty of room for a boat and the boat landing is just 11 blocks from the house.

The bonus living space or 'Sea Shed' was built under the Folly Barrack House in the 1950's. Brick and block walls were once home to one of Folly's infamous key clubs that entertained many locals and celebrities alike. Today we have transitioned her into a sweet additional living space equipped with a queen bed that is steps away from the beach. The Sea Shed kitchen is equipped with everything you need for a special meal and a quaint bathroom separates the main room from the bedroom. This is included in your rental! The whole house is yours!

Downtown Charleston is a short 25-minute drive away. There you will be immersed in history, fashionable boutiques, souvenir and local markets, world-class restaurants, live entertainment, and carriage, history, harbor, ghost, and food tours. Take a stroll along The Battery, Waterfront Park, and Rainbow Row. Visit the Children's Museum and the South Carolina Aquarium. Float on a ferry to Fort Sumpter where you can spend a whole afternoon.

Steve Y at 04/30/2025 commented Folly Barrack House
Having the separate downstairs "apt" made this an ideal rental, so our adult son had his own space. We liked being toward the end of Folly away from the hustle and bustle! Would not hesitate to rent this place again. It is quite old, with interesting architecture. It's not much to look at from the outside, but the inside is very nice and it was very clean!

Shout out to Kayla who was very helpful and patient with us during the booking process. This was a last minute trip that at various times we booked, tried to cancel, tried to re-rent, and finally confirmed our booking. We were needy and Kayla was great. The location of the house was excellent. The house itself is funky in the layout but actually worked perfect as we had one family with 3 kids and one family with no kids, so the downstairs "apartment" worked great for the couple with no kids.

Enjoyed staying so close to the beach but not walking distance to downtown Folly Beach. Very rustic and older home with lots of doors. The basement does not connecti to upper floors. Overall great location with lots of parking which fit one of our needs.

Such a great vacation! My family loves the house, short walk to the beach, and the atmosphere in Folly.

Great location. Just steps from the beach on a not so busy street. Plenty of bath towels and supplies and a chest full of beach toys with chairs was really nice.

Our family of five chose this property for our first trip to Folly Beach. There is plenty of parking and amenities here. We enjoyed the floor plan, having the bunk beds for our kids, and plenty of room in the living area spaces. Also, another huge benefit is the short walk to the beach access! I don't know that we have ever had a non-oceanfront property that allowed such easy access to the beach. We will stay here again!

It was great for our group! 2 Moms and 5 teenage girls. We REALLY enjoyed it. Being close to the beach access was great, too. Plenty of parking.

We had a wonderful time and the house was like a home away from home. Thanks for ensuring everything was clean and properly stocked.

My friends and I had a great time in Folly. The home was very close to public beach access. Communication was great from Carolina One.
