About this apartment rental
Private detached Guest house (500 ft²) with NO connecting neighbors
- Safe and secure off-street parking right next to your door
- A perfect jumping off point for those who want to experience Folly Beach and Downtown Charleston!
- Located in the established walkable Bayfront community with waterfront Dock Street Park just a block away. Perfect if you want to get a "locals" feel of the area.
(Located on James Island)
The Space
You are only:
- 3.5 miles and (only 1 stop light) to Historic Downtown Charleston - basically a straight shot over the scenic James Island bridge to downtown.
- 6 miles to Folly Beach
- 14 miles to the Charleston Airport
- There are several restaurants and bars including a city park within walking distance.
Folly Beach and Downtown are not within walking distance. Rentals in those areas have significantly higher prices and usually lack adequate parking and conveniance if you want to see greater Charleston.
Transportation:
A car is recommended if you want to see all of the sites that Charleston has to offer. Uber and Lyft are easily available due to the close proximity to downtown Charleston

Ratings and reviews
10.0 / 10.0
A great studio apartment that’s pet friendly. The outdoor shower is a great bonus especially after time at the beach. Chris is a great host and provided everything we needed for a few days of R&R. The park down the street is a fantastic place to watch the sunrise or sunset. Convenient location for Folly Beach, shopping, restaurants or accessing Charleston and the surrounding area.
10.0 / 10.0
We enjoyed our accommodations and location! We were able to experience the best of both worlds of Folly Beach and downtown Charleston. We appreciated the available amenities including beach chairs and umbrella! Perfect space for two looking to explore the city of Charleston.
