Description Description
One of Folly's Best! Stilted Views is a private 3 bedroom 2 bath home that sleeps up to 6 people. This classic Folly home is located on a marsh-front lot with a crabbing/kayak dock in back and the beach across the street. It is less than a mile from outstanding surfing at the Washout. Enjoy the amazing sunsets from the multilevel private deck private dock or from the primary bedroom. The beach is across the street less than a five-minute walk to public access. This home features a spacious primary suite with a king bed and en suite bathroom. The 2nd bedroom has a queen bed and the 3rd bedroom has a full-size bed. The house has an open floor plan with a large dining table that easily seats 6 and a fully equipped kitchen for cooking wonderful meals. There are front and back decks with outdoor dining on both. A screen porch in back has incredible 360 views of the marsh, Morris Island lighthouse, Long Island River Lighthouse, Creek the Charleston Harbor, and the most amazing sunsets you've ever seen. You will find a large open backyard with a private dock for crabbing, launching your kayak, or just watching the sunset and marsh wildlife. Numerous amenities include cable TV, three HD TVs, and high-speed internet. The location at Folly's NE end means sparsely populated lush beaches and outstanding surfing and surfcasting. You're a short walk or bike ride from the NE end of the island with up-close views of the famous Morris Island lighthouse. A short bike ride in the other direction puts you right at the restaurants, shops, and bars along Center Street and the Folly Pier. You can also go by the iconic 24/7 Bert's Market for some organic vegetables, a bottle of wine, or a growler of one of your favorite micro-brews. Downtown Charleston is a short 30-minute drive in the car making Stilted Views the perfect location for visitors looking to experience a little bit of everything Charleston and the South Carolina coast have to offer.

Stilted Views allows up to 3 well-behaved, house-broken, flea-treated dogs with approval. Please include the breed and size of your dogs when you inquire.

We had a wonderful time at Stilted Views! The marsh view from the master bedroom was lovely—even better than the photos. There are beautiful sunset views and a great place for birdwatching. We even saw an osprey swoop down and catch a fish with a magenta sky in the background. You can also see a bit of the ocean from the front windows, which was nice. The house was much larger than expected, and we felt right at home. The bed was extremely comfortable, which is one of the most important parts of a vacation. This is a quiet, peaceful part of the island, and we're grateful we finally got a chance to stay on this end. Would love to stay here again!

I've rented on Folly long term & for vacations since '97. This is a gem. Well appointed; with an amazing screened porch on the back to view the creek & observe wildlife (Or from the dock) wrap around deck & a roof top deck for sunset. Absolutely a favorite on FB. Didn't even use half the house.

The perfect spot to stay at Folly Beach !!!! This house is outstanding. Great location beach access is a short walk across the street and a little bit further walk and you can walk the beach to Morris Lighthouse. Sitting on the roof is awesome with a great view of the marsh or looking across the street to see the ocean. Really enjoyed sitting in the screened in back porch rocking in the chair checking out the marsh. Neighborhood is beautiful and quit. Very relaxing hanging out on the dock in the back yard. Loved every minute of my stay at Stilted Views!!!!

Our family had a great time visiting Folly Beach and staying at this property. Short walk to the beach, although there is no longer public access directly across the street since a home is being constructed there. The multiple decks on the house were awesome, and we also enjoyed hanging out/crabbing on the back dock. This property is dog friendly, but our dog passed away right before we arrived but she would have loved it. Would recommend this home for a stay at Folly Beach!

This is an older house that hasn't been updated much but it had clean and neatly done and you had everything you'd need. The location was great! Plenty of room in kitchen, comfortable seating in den, wrap around porch and eagle's nest porch with awesome views, beach is practically empty in this area, close to the lighthouse and cool places to walk and explore on the beach. So easy to whip in to Charleston to do fun things there. Loved it!

We absolutely loved our stay. The location was perfect. We rented a golf cart even though we had a vehicle which made access to the island perfect. The views from every deck were gorgeous. Nothing blocked it. The house itself is not upscale which was exactly what we where looking for, I think is a great representation of the island. I would definitely stay here again and again.

My wife and I have stayed at many different rental properties on Folly over the past 10 years with the ultimate goal of finding the perfect spot for a great getaway for 6 people or less, and I think we’ve finally got the one. This rental property is even better than advertised! All of the views are nothing short of perfect! Not to mention such short walks to beach access, views of Morris Island lighthouse, and the early morning surf traffic made for an incredible stay. Top that with all the amazing different dining experiences to be had in Charleston from starting our day at The Lost Dog, bar hopping on Folly at Taco Boy and Rita’s (to name a couple of our favorites), casual dinners at Bowen’s Island, and amazing cuisine in downtown Charleston at S.N.O.B. and High Cotton, this is the ultimate low country coastal experience! We’re so excited to book our next stay here, and may even have to add an extra vacation to the budget this year just so we can revisit this perfect rental!

Great house with awesome views of the ocean and the marsh. Both can be seen from inside the house or from the crow's nest. Our visit was during the off season, so everything was quiet and peaceful. Beach access was at the end of the driveway.

Stilted Views is a beautiful home with the best location on Folly Beach! Super quiet with amazing views from the many porches! The floor plan of the house is brilliant for each room to have views and all the amenities one could think of! The beach access is directly across the street and it is a quiet, less occupied end of Folly. The Washout is so fun to catch surfers riding waves, sunset is amazing and quiet mornings for enjoying the sunrise! beautiful walk to town on the beach and back! LOVED this house! Will definitely be renting again in the future! BEST beginning to 2022 I could imagine. Thank you or sharing your gem with us.

We had a great stay at this beach cottage. Loved the water views out of the front and back of the home. It’s actually got 4 bedrooms: a queen, a full, a king, and a small room off the king with a twin. The king has its own bath and access to the screened porch that overlooks the marsh. You have to walk through the small room with the twin to access the rest of the house. Not an issue for us since no one stayed in there. But, this is good to know in case you have privacy concerns for anyone who stays in there. House was very clean and well appointed. Very comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen. There were two small portable charcoal grills in the garage, a couple of beach chairs and a small kayak (no paddle though). Loved the rooftop deck. Super close to the light house. Would love to come back in the summer!

This house is great! The location is amazing. You're right across the street from the ocean (w/ ocean views!) where there's a walkway to the beach. Your also towards the end of the island where the beach is wide and it's quieter. The deck space is outstanding. It wraps all the way around the house. There's also a crow's nest deck and a screened in porch. The house is spacious and two of the bedrooms have sliding glass doors leading out to the decks. The marsh views out back are so pretty.There were plenty of linens, extra comforters, pillows, etc. They kitchen is fully stocked! It has everything. There's ample parking under the house and in the driveway. While this is an older home it's definitely well cared for. It had everything we needed and more. We'll be back!

We had an amazing time in Folly! Stilted Views was a great! It was bigger then what we expected. There was 5 of us including 3 adult boys (18,19, & 20) everyone had their own room! One slept on the day bed. (The Mattress that was on the bottom was most comfortable) The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, the kids even made smoothies with the blender! The shower under the house was great for after being at the beach, especially rinsing off the dog! The boys actually started showering down there, with swimsuits on of course! Having a washer & dryer was awesome, a little loud. ???‍?? A lot of traffic to go to Morris Island Lighthouse. The house is far enough back that it wasn’t an issue. We rented a golf cart to drive into Folly, highly recommend to do that. Boogie boards, beach umbrella, small cooler, 1 beach chair & 2 regular lawn chairs were all available to use. The beach umbrella we only took one day with the regular chairs we couldn’t get it deep enough in the sand to not blow away. We loved the decks! Sitting on the front deck drinking coffee listening to the waves or glass of wine at night was nice! One son brought his hammock he had it on the top deck! The views from Stilted Views were amazing! Stilted Views exceeded our expectations! We will definitely be back!

Perfect size property and great location for our family of five - including three kids ages 11, 14, & 17. Easy access to a great beach that's never overcrowded (we were there over July 4th... and Stilted Views is far enough from the Folly Pier that there were no crowds on our stretch of beach). Easy to get to destinations of interest in Charleston area within about 30 minutes (plantations, downtown, Patriot's Point, Angel Oak, etc.). We also enjoyed some fun shops on the main road at the center of Folly Beach. Stilted Views is appropriately named - 360 degree views are excellent - including beach, marsh and Morris Island lighthouse. We rented bikes also (talk to Matty at Cool Breeze Bike Rentals) and rode them on a nice paved stretch of road at the very top of Folly where motorized vehicles can't go. Bikes are also excellent for the beach at low tide (sand is nice and compact). Only negative about Stilted Views is there's not any beach gear on hand at the property. If you're flying in (like we did), you'll either need to buy or rent chairs, canopies, boogie boards, etc. Also, make sure you bring your own beach towels.

Dream come true!

Stayed here with son and family with 2 kids ages 4.5 and 18 months. Loved the well stocked appliances in kitchen and the gates that locked on the stair entrances. Having both the creek / dock access with screened porch and the beach access right in front was the real draw- especially being able to see the waves from the dining area. Loved glass and plastic wine glasses- and plates as well for the little ones. My only complaint is the the coffee pot held 10 cups and no automatic timer to set for turn on/ off. Rental staff very accommodating and willing to please/ help when we had an issue with tv viewing. Will rent this place again, even for husband and me, just to remember our great times with family! Furniture is in great condition. Beds very comfortable!

Great house and location

We enjoyed our stay in Folly and and at stilted view. The house was really clean and much bigger than we expected. The kitchen was very well stocked for cooking and we loved the decks both of them. We would sit up on the top deck and enjoyed the sun rise and it was a short walk to the light house, also down on that end of the island it was very peaceful. We will plan to come back here on our next beach vacation.

My husband and I stayed at this property for three nights with our Chihuahua. We had a fantastic time. The house is in good condition and very clean. The back master bedroom is spectacular. Comfortable bed that overlooks the marsh for miles. You can also walk out your bedroom door into the comfortable screened porch or onto the deck. We enjoyed walking out onto the long deck overlooking the marsh every day. We sat on the front deck and had a great view of the ocean across the street. The kitchen is fully equipped and open floor plan leads into the dining room and living room at the front of the house. You can see the ocean from either of these rooms. We can't wait to go back!!

Great Place to Stay!

The property was in the perfect location for our family. We liked it being further from the bigger crowds at Folly. We love that it was right across from the beach but had a wonderful marsh view. The house was clean and comfortable with all the amenities we needed. It was great to find a house that would allow our dog. Thanks for the recommendation of places to eat. We were able to stay locally and entertain ourselves if we wanted, but it was also easy and quick to get to Charleston for a completely different experience. The property management company, Folly's Best Beach Rentals was also excellent an even brought us a welcome gift.
