About this house rental

NEW RATE OFFERING

During non-peak months, Nov.-Feb., I've priced the "Sunset" House to be more affordable for smaller parties by charging per guest. So, it's VERY important that when inquiring you enter the EXACT number of guests that will be accompanying you. If there are some guests that only stay part of your reservation, they must be noted and be charged for the nights that they are staying. Pets will be considered and MUST be approved with acceptance depending on the type of pet, breed, weight, and age.


Also, regarding pricing, pet, housekeeping, linens fees, and boat dockage are itemized so if you’re not bringing a boat, you won’t be charged extra. Existing fees are quoted are for a week and under and will be adjusted for longer stays. Sorry, at times, it seems like a lot of "add ons" but can bring down the cost of your reservation.

This "Gem" is showcased on the "Point" and well hidden in this upscale Carribean Island styled waterfront home. Pleasantly secluded in Folly Beach rightfully named " Sunset Point." You have my word that you'll not experience any more breathtaking Sunsets and panoramic water views anywhere on the coast. With many surrounding pristine homes this home, rightfully named the "Sunset" House, offers all that you could expect for a restful and one of the most enjoyable vacation experiences in the Lowcountry. You'll be pleasingly surprised to find so many extras for your comfort and a feeling of being right at home. Not your typical beach house.

Located on the Folly Inlet, enjoy a 200 ft. walkway (the shortest one in the neighborhood), pierhead, large floating dock, and the boat ramp right down the street. You'll not only enjoy all the activities that the dock and inlet can offer but the beautiful wildlife all around you. The marshes surrounding you are truly panoramic, change colors depending on the season and the stage of the sun. So many wildlife species to be enjoyed such as Egrets, pelicans, I've even spotted an occasional Eagle), and dolphin are all around the dock for you to enjoy and admire. Don't worry, No alligators here! Include the breathtaking sunsets and you'll think you're in heaven. This is one of the most beautiful homes (and a well-kept secret) on the island and this perfect slice paradise is now available to you for an unforgettable vacation.
Just drive down the private drive and run into a spectacular view of the inlet and surrounding waterways. This unique location offers unimaginable views and one of the few private docks on Folly Beach while offering exceptional seclusion and privacy for your family. The beach (approximately 6 blocks away) or the new beach access points is about 4 blocks from the house. All of the excitement of Center Street is close. I like to "golf cart it" around "Folly" and check out everything that's going on. There's so much to see on this 7-mile island and the best way to travel around here is definitely by cart! I highly recommend it.

This nicely appointed home with too many extras to list and is tailored for those guests that like the luxury feel but still desire a casual vacation. The "Sunset" House offers 4 private bedrooms with shades and blackout curtains. Three baths (plus an enclosed outdoor shower with HOT and cold water). PERFECT for any holiday (I decorate!), special occasions, or just a restful vacation.

Sleeping 9 in bedrooms and an adult, or 2 children, on the comfortable couch/futon in the sunroom. You'll enjoy water views from just about every room. A large family room fully equipped spacious kitchen, and airy sunroom gives you plenty of eating areas and room to spread out for your own privacy.
Rest on several nicely furnished decks, balconies, and covered seating areas overlooking the Folly Inlet. Have your morning coffee, enjoy beautiful scenery in any of these nooks and keep up with the activities on the River/Inlet.


The grounds are nicely lit, professionally landscaped, and treated monthly for mosquitoes and pest (as well as the interior of the house), so you won't have to worry about all that unpleasantness. Also, enjoy that firepit for chilly nights.
This part of the island is the way to go when you just want to 'beat the 'crowds'. Lounge right in your 'backyard' on the dock and see all kinds of interesting sites changing by the minute. Boaters, water skiing, fishermen, shrimpers, paddle boarders, sail boats, shrimp boats, and kayakers. Join the fun for a short boat ride adventure down the river to Sunset Cay Marina or try out the famous Bowen's Island (or drive) for a great lunch or dinner. Or you might just want to bob around and soak in the sun on an oversized float with a nice cool drink in your hand while tied to the dock. No worries! You may even feel like catching your own dinner by just doing a bit of fishing shrimping or crabbing right off of the dock. One thing for sure is that you'll experience the most exquisite sunsets and peacefulness. Just take a breath and appreciate the beauty of it all by standing on the deck of home, you have 180-degree views of the Folly Inlet and many Charleston landmarks including the Morris Island Lighthouse and the Ravenel Bridge.

With updated furnishings and window treatments can comfortably sleeps 8 to 11. The house has wonderful nooks and crannies for gatherings of friends and family. The family room has a 50-inch flat screen Smart TV, ample seating, and a dining area for 8 plus. The sunroom has a flat screen TV and seating for 6 dinner table. Both rooms have sofas and, comfortable overstuffed chairs, for your comfort.

The spacious kitchen includes a large walk-in pantry and equipped with stainless steel appliances is perfect for those who enjoy cooking! Plenty of bar/cooking area with bar stools for those "on lookers". You'll find all that you'll need to prepare those great meals with well stocked with pots, pans, roasters, large pots for boils, crock pots, coffee pots, Keurig, cutting boards, array of cooking knives, oyster knives, baking pans, mixers, blender, grilling utensils, serving platters, nice dish wear. You name it...it's just ready for entertaining. For outdoor grilling, you'll find a charcoal and a gas grill especially nice to do as you watch the sun set.
Off of the kitchen is a spacious laundry room/changing room with a washer, dryer, extra storage, a private shower which adjoins a half bath. A queen bedroom is located downstairs off of the family room. Three bedrooms are upstairs including the master suite with a very abundant master bath including a spacious jacuzzi and a large walk-in shower. Spectacular views water can be viewed from the master BR's bistro set on its own balcony.

Two additional bedrooms upstairs consist of a BR with a queen bed and a large high boy for plenty of storage, a walk-in closet, a flat screen TV and one window with a view of the water. The third BR has 1 double bed, 1 twin bed, a walk-in closet, a flat screen TV, and a nice double window with views of the water. There is a full hall bath with a bathtub and shower upstairs next to the 2 bedrooms.
The linen including sheets, blankets, throws, towels, and comforters are of very nice quality. The bathrooms have just what you would expect at home. Soft bath rugs, nice shower liners and shower curtains, body wash, and plenty of thick, soft towels. Bath rugs are changed out, along with the comforters, pillow shams, and blankets after each reservation. Fresh ones are replaced for your visit! You'll feel like you're in a B&B instead of your typical beach house.

Ample parking, including three plus parking bays below the house are available with additional storage for boat trailers and boats, and other parking spaces. Entry to the house is also accessible off of the carport through the basement where you'll find additional storage for your things. You'll also find several beach chairs, beach wagon, and umbrellas for your use.

Located at the very end of the street on a cult a sac, there's not many cars heading your way other than the neighbors. It's a very safe place for the kids to play outside or take a bike ride. I raised my 2 girls in this house and neighborhood and never had any worries about their safety.

Also, you won't have to worry about those beach 'neighbors' that just might be renting closely next to you and may be into full vacation mode by overindulging and having those "additional friends" over for the week. That invasiveness can certainly put a damper on your vacation. Instead, just take in all of the beauty and serenity of being on the water while grilling out, chilling out, and watching sunsets.

You boaters remember No Boat Landings to deal with daily. You know how that can be especially in the Summer when they can become quite interesting with the crowds. If you know what I mean! Just jump on your boat right from your own dock. Oh, by the way, the dock has electricity and water for your convenience.
Bring your floating toys also including your canoe, kayak, or jet ski, etc., or rent them and have them delivered right to the house. While you're enjoying them, just sit back in the cool water and look over at the bridge to watch all of the hustle and bustle of people waiting in line coming and going from the beach. But not YOU!

The thing about a special vacation with friends and family is to spend precious time with our loved ones and make sweet memories that you'll never forget. I believe you will experience that at the " Sunset" House and soak up the true "Folly" experience while staying in this amazing home where you can be a part of all that this "Paradise" has to offer.

SEE YA AT THE BEACH!!

If you need a space for extra guests, the Sunset House has a 'little sister'. The 'Lil Pearl"' listing 654511, a 2 BR, 1 Bath cottage 4 blocks from the beach.

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. Our family has rented this house before and we hope to return again.

The house was great. We loved the magnificent views. The location is wonderful. It has the feeling of being secluded but actually is very close to the beach, restaurants and bars. Teresa was very kind and helpful. We rented a boat. The dock was perfect. A golf cart made getting around the island easy and fun.

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!
