The quaint coastal cottage kitchen features new appliances, and counter seating. Additionally, Little Daffodil is outfitted with two 55" smart tvs and high speed internet throughout. Though a cozy footprint, the vaulted ceilings allow for airy and comfortable living.

Little Daffodil has two private outdoor living areas: including a covered screened porch facing W. Cooper Ave, and a private deck facing the Daffodil Compound courtyard. An off street parking space is guaranteed and there is ample street parking as well.

Little Daffodil is part of the landmark Daffodil compound, and shares an outdoor common area that includes: lounge areas, garden shower, and beautiful lush tropical landscaping. This property can be rented alone or in conjunction with Wee Daffodil and/or Big Daffodil to sleep as many as 12 guests.

The Weekend We Needed.

I wanted to surprise my girlfriend with the perfect birthday getaway, and this property allowed me to do just that. Truthfully could not have imagined it to be more perfect. The home was the perfect size and in an unbelievably convenient location, allowing us to walk to 80% of the places we wanted to check out (aside from downtown Charleston). If/when we come back to Folly Beach, I will be looking to book here only!

This was our third trip to Folly and our first stay at Little Daffodil. We certainly hope to return. Communication was quick and check-in was very smooth. The cottage is beautiful and comfortable. Quick walk to Center Street and beach makes this the ideal Folly place to stay.

The perfect getaway

This is the perfect place for a couple to get away. Clean, cozy, well stocked and even better in person than the amazing pictures showed. Can walk to everything (beach, bars, restaurants and shops). Quick drive to Charleston too. If we end up back in Folly Beach this will be the first place I look to book again.

About the host

Hosted by Steven Niketas

Host profile image
I am born and raised in Charleston and Michael is a transplant who has lived here for many years. We live just down the street at the end of East Ashley Avenue, almost to the Morris Island Lighthouse. Our other Folly rentals include the rest of The Daffodil Cottages Compound (Daffodil Big 2br/2bth and Daffodil Little 1br/1bth) and two cottages in the east end know as Marshmellow 2br/2bth and Oleander 3br/2bth. It is located on our quiet east end street and offers marsh and ocean views from the front and rear decks. Also, If interested in staying in downtown Charleston for a few nights, we have 3, two bedroom apartments located at the corner of Warren and St Philip Streets that we run through vrbo as well! We own and operate Stella's Restaurant and Mosaic Catering + Events as well. If any questions at all about the area, do not hesitate to reach out. We love our island and are always excited to share information!

Why they chose this property

This little cottage is super special to us. Even though it has the charm of a 1939 beach cottage, it has all the comforts of a modern rental. It's location, just a block from town and a block from the ocean, make it the ideal place for a quick getaway for a couple or small family.

What makes this property unique

We've recently added new appliances and new furniture throughout including appliances, a queen sleep sofa and new porch seating.
