Lovely stay

We enjoyed our week here so much, the house and setting was just perfect for our family. We had our small dog with us and the small fenced yard was definitely a plus. House was very clean and well maintained. Would love to stay again.

Excellent Location!

This home was very accurately described! The communication and response from owner is the best I have encountered. The home is super well maintained including the fenced in yard which is one of the best parts of property. Home is small but perfect size for small group. The 3rd bedroom is a loft with narrow spiral staircase gets a bit warm but there is a portable A/C unit which we did not use much because it was a bit noisy. The internet was a bit in and out. Great 3 weeks on Folly!!

Wonderful

Loved this house and look forward to staying again soon! It was clean (even smelled clean), well stocked with everything needed to cook or grill at home while watching the dolphins frolic in the ocean which is so close! My dogs enjoyed walks on the beach and the fenced yard! The host is very responsive! Great vacation!

Spring getaway

LOCATION! Literally steps from the beautiful beach. Far enough from center of town to enjoy a peaceful drink on the deck and quiet walk on the beach. But only a short golf cart ride to all the restaurants and action. Spiral stairs were difficult to navigate with luggage but we did it. We would definitely stay here again.

Simple Pleasures

We are two older couples, along with our dogs, who feel blessed to enjoy the simple pleasures of life; leisurely walks along the shore, cozy dinners overlooking the ocean and watching the sunrise together. This is the perfect place for friends to relax, to laugh together and to experience the beauty of growing old gracefully. We will continue to visit annually as long as the good Lord allows!

Gals weekend

Five of us (ladies in our 30s/40s) stayed at this cute little beach house for a little R&R after a weekend in Charleston. Beach Location was amazing, great outside space. Steps up to the loft a little tight but otherwise good space. Clean

Great location right on the beach!

We loved this home! It feels like you couldn’t get closer to the beach if you wanted to. The house was clean and decorated so well. The artwork in the home was stunning and painted by the owner. Love that all of their properties are pet friendly.

Awesome Location

The beach house was so cute! The location of this house was also amazing, you have a perfect view of the beach. In the pictures the house does look a little further from the beach but in person the walk through the dunes is much shorter. You’re about a 5 minute drive from the local restaurants which is also very nice.

Sunrise beach house

The location was definitely the best, we saw a gorgeous sunrise each morning and beautiful sunsets. Even dolphins right off the porch! Lovely breeze. Some appliances are a bit run down, but the home was pretty clean. Bedrooms are small on the first floor, right squeeze with a pack n play but we fit. The spiral staircase is very narrow, but worked fine for us

Yay for small houses on the beach!!!

Not everyone needs a huge house and multiple bedrooms! This was perfect for 3 adults and 2 dogs! Location was great. Would definitely stay again. Only issue (and no ones fault) was dog yard had been wrecked by recent septic work. As the secure privacy-fenced yard was the reason we chose this property, this was a big problem! Once owner realized this she acted ASAP, and we had a secure yard for last 5 days of our stay. As others have mentioned, the gate to the beach is difficult: I could not close it by myself and hope that gets fixed before next visit. Otherwise, great spot!

Lovely beach cottage with amazing view!

We had a great experience staying at this property- clean, well air-conditioned in the SC heat and can’t beat the view and access to the beach. Great place for one family with small-ish children (when comfortable with stairs) - a lovely beach cottage!

Great little place

First off, the pic of distance from house to beach is way off.. looks like a long walk but it’s literally right on the beach. You could throw a baseball from the porch and it land over the dune on the beach. Place is little, like the comment, but it works. With the extreme and ridiculous pricing on beach front houses this hit the spot!

Beachy Bliss: A Sand-Sational Escape with Charm, Quirks, and Ocean Breezy Views!

Get ready for some serious beach therapy! This place is a quirky paradise – small yet packed with all the essentials for a fam getaway. We had a minor hiccup with the grill's propane tank, but fear not, folks! Our host was on it like a seagull on a french fry. Furry pals and offspring are welcome, but the beachside gate hasn't yet mastered latching. Fear not, the double-gated deck is your sandy fortress. Deck view? Jaw-dropping. Beach sprint? 60 seconds. No need to pack TP or towels, this haven's got your backside. Checkout's a breeze, with no Herculean cleaning tasks to tackle, just a smooth getaway like a stealthy sand crab. Now, for the nitty-gritty: a sprinkle of dust here, splash of bathroom water damage there – no biggie. Upstairs bathroom, we appreciate you, even if you're smaller than a hermit crab's studio apartment and your door's louder than a foghorn. And can we talk about the A/C? It's like a magical wizard casting a cool spell over the entire house, including the loft. No sweat, literally. In a nutshell, this place is like that quirky friend who always has a hilarious story to tell, a cozy hug to offer, and a front-row seat to the best show in town. We'd book it again faster than a sandcastle crumbles.

Great house for a small family

Great house and location. About a 15 minute walk to the "main" area of the island. Property manager was on top of communcation/emails throughout the whole process. Spiral staircase was fun in theory, but definitely harder to navigate than we expected. Made it getting our luggage up and down a little tricky. The overall cleanliness of the house was good, but it could probably use a deep cleaning soon. There was a bunch of dust on some of the walls from the fans going and a lot of crumbs in the cabinets and drawers. The kitchen was adequately stocked for dishes. We had to get creative a few times while making a some meals. The addition of a griddle would be a game changer. :)

About the host

Hosted by Alicia Kinard

Chastain's Front Beach Cottages has been on Folly Beach since the 1940's. Lunnette Kinard is affectionately known as "Miss Folly Beach" and was the official beauty pageant winner as well as runner up in the state. She is retired but having a great time "supervising". Alicia is now managing the properties.

Why they chose this property

Lunnette built this home on the front beach in 1980. It is a darling front beach home with master bedroom loft. It has a great view of the pier and is a six block walk to center street. You are close enough to walk but don't have all the traffic of center street area.
