About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Beachfront + Pool + Game Room | Firepit + Private Beach Access | Lighthouse
Perched directly on the sand with its own private walkover to the shore, Lighthouse is the kind of Folly Beach retreat that earns its name — a sun-soaked, six-bedroom coastal home where ocean views stretch from nearly every window and the rhythm of the Atlantic sets the pace. Vaulted beamed ceilings and a grand staircase anchor the airy open-concept living spaces, while breezy coastal interiors, layered textures, and oversized windows keep the focus on what matters: the view, the light, and the people you're with.
The heart of the home is a wide-open great room that flows into a chef's kitchen with a generous island, perfect for grazing boards and slow mornings with coffee in hand. Multiple living areas give everyone room to spread out — settle in for a movie, claim a spot by the window, or head to the dedicated game room for a friendly showdown across the ping pong, billiards, and foosball tables.
Outside is where Lighthouse really shines. A private pool anchors the lower deck, with lounge chairs angled toward the surf and plenty of space to dry off between dips. Upstairs, the rooftop patio is built for sunset hour — gather around the fire pit, pour something cold, and watch the sky shift over the dunes. When you're ready for the water, your private staircase drops you straight onto the sand.
The six bedrooms are thoughtfully laid out across the home to give every guest a quiet corner to retreat to, with crisp linens, soft coastal tones, and plenty of natural light. Four full bathrooms mean no waiting in line on beach days.
Whether you're chasing waves, sunset views, or simply slower days with the people you love most, Lighthouse delivers the full Folly experience — sand between your toes, salt in the air, and nowhere else you need to be.
AvantStay provides a personalized hospitality experience to elevate your stay. With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more. For anything you need, we’re at your fingertips!
Welcome to one of America’s last true beach towns! This fun, laid back area is perfect for a relaxing beach vacation. A mecca for great views, great food, and some great surf, you’ll be nestled between the Atlantic Ocean and the Folly River. Enjoy 6 miles of beaches, surfing, kayaking, boating, and endless sunset views. Beautiful Morris Island is a great spot to take in the sea life and panoramic views. Take a stroll down Center Street in Downtown Folly, which boasts tons of eclectic bars and restaurants that are fun for the whole family.
Home Truths: - You must be 25 years or older to book this home. - In addition to the 6 bedrooms, there are two additional sleeping spaces--a loft area with a twin bed and trundle, and a bonus room with a twin bunk bed. The bonus room has a sliding door for privacy but no window. - Please note that Early Check-In (ECI) and Late Check-Out (LCO) services are not available from May to September. - From May to October these beaches are home to nesting sea turtles. To protect these turtles guests will be expected to turn off all outdoor lights and close the blinds at night from 10pm to dawn. -The exterior floodlights have been disconnected to protect the sea turtles. - This home allows 1 dog for a fee of $250; undisclosed animals brought into the home without AvantStay’s approval may result in a minimum $500 fine. - This home has a private pool which can be heated with at least 24 hours notice for $80/day (3 night minimum) as long as the ambient temperature averages over 55F. - Beach chairs are not provided. - Fireplaces are not for guest use. - This home is located in a quiet residential community, and Folly Beach has a strict noise ordinance starting at 10 PM. To comply with this ordinance, we use noise sensors in our properties. Please be mindful of your neighbors. - Please note that due to natural coastal conditions, beach areas may experience periodic erosion that can affect shoreline size and accessibility. During periods of high tide, portions of the beach—or the entire beach—may be temporarily inaccessible. We are not able to guarantee identical beach conditions for future stays, and refunds or relocations will not be available due to these natural changes. - While we do our best to communicate any known work within Wild Dunes or nearby beach projects, many homes are privately owned and we are not always notified of surrounding activity.

The host was very responsive and the location on the beach was just beautiful. There was some quirkiness with electrical outlets and the gas outdoor fireplace was rotted out and had to be replaced. Felt like we had to call for little things more than we should have but when we called the response was pretty good. Shout out to Ryan for going above and beyond!

A great stay, but the property needs some attention
I would have liked to have rated this a 4.5, but didn't have the option. The location was perfect, the property was clean, spacious, activities were available for entertainment, and the kitchen was well stocked for meal prep. However, much of the property, including furniture, exterior stairs, and trim is a bit worn and in need of some replacement/TLC. One of downstairs beds is using a cinder block as a support for the box spring resulting in the occupants rolling into each other. Bath linens were far from luxurious. That being said, my family of 10 had a wonderful time. The property managers were very responsive and addressed issues that needed immediate attention (exterior lighting (driveway and front stairs), exterior fire pit, and questions concerning local health care).

On the Beach
This was a clean property that suited our needs for a family visit to Folly Beach. The community spaces were comfortable and big enough to accommodate a large group. The game areas were fun to have. The kitchen was a little smaller than we thought from the pictures, but it accommodated cooking for our group well, and the kitchen was well-stocked with pots, pans, dishes, and cooking tools. The location is the best thing here, though - right on the recently refurbished beach, which was wide and beautiful. Loved being able to run down the beach in the morning and pick up a paper at Bert's on the way back. If we're down in Folly again with the same group, we'll definitely look this spot up again. Had a great time!

Awesome property and management group!
We booked this property for 14 adults and were excited to find a place that had great common spaces and "play" areas. The house and pictures were accurate as advertised. Big dining area, great TV area and pong and pool table spaces as well. Very short walk to a great beach!
The property management was excellent. We had a small issue that we alerted the management team and they were quick and responsive to rectify the issue. Communication regarding check-in, check out and amenities were clear and descriptive.
Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Wonderful Trip!
We had a great stay! Morning walks on the beach, great location. The house was perfect - open floor plan, plenty of space for everyone. My only complaint is we were too busy doing activities and didn’t get to spend enough time at the house. Great communication from hosts. Hopefully we will be able to go again someday!

This house did not disappoint! We had a few issues of our own making, and the property managers were quick to answer at all times, even late into the night, not quitting without a solution to our satisfaction. The view was incredible and there was more than enough room for all of our crew and then some! The semi private beach was fantastic, as well. I highly recommend this property!

Family vacation 2023
Property worked great for our large family gathering! Beds were super comfortable, linens and towels or excellent! Home was in need of some minor maintenance, TLC. The grill was not in good shape at all the sliding doors to the beach. Very very hard to open, not enough coffee cups for our six adults just some minor issues. Nothing ruined our trip! Would definitely rent again. When we arrive, we were made aware of any issue with the railing on the street side. They had a crew come in and fix it the next day. Overall, the house was perfect for our gathering.

Beautiful view and home
Overall it was a great home and beautiful view. The management team was somewhat responsive but there were no usable ping pong paddles and the outside lights were completely disconnected. They did end up sending ping pong paddles but they were extremely low quality. The Wi-Fi initially didn't work because the modem was disconnected.

Lovely destination, great location!
This house is perfectly located, very easy to get to the main strip and the beach access is stellar. The view of the house from the curb is not great, but that all melts away as soon as you walk out on the patio and see the ocean. There was a significant leak into one of the rooms downstairs, but the property manager was very communicative and the maintenance was not disruptive. The house wasn't sparkling clean, but we had everything we needed to be comfortable and enjoy our trip. The services provided by the concierge company were a huge bonus. I would highly recommend!

Lovely Home
This home sits right on the beach and is gorgeous. It is very spacious, several bedrooms, pool table, large kitchen table, multiple tv’s to accommodate all ages/variety of shows/gaming systems. The only complaint is that the AC in the upstairs master bedroom doesn’t work at all. It was impossible to cool the space. And we needed the space. And for some weird reason the heat would randomly come on, overnight. A couple of the mattresses probably need updating. Being beach front, made a huge difference with kids, as they could easily go back to the house for lunch, breaks, cool down, etc. The coolest space in the house is the upstairs loft, with an amazing view. The check in/out process was easy and any questions I had were answered by the AvantStay team quickly. The house was very clean and ready upon arrival.

Graduation Week!
This home was perfect for the week of our sons graduation, commissioning, and wedding at the Citadel. Perfect space for family and groomsmen. We loved being able to bring our puppy with us on vacation too. The views every day, all day were amazing. The kids liked being able to walk to the bars and I felt safe running every day. The only negatives we saw were the wood floor in the kitchen has a strange slanted trim piece that causes the floor to be uneven and caused people to trip and fall all week. We ended up putting up a row of chairs in the entry hall and painters tape to prevent people from walking in the front door after my 80 year old dad fell. The only other issue was the lack of bathrooms, other beach houses we’ve rented have baths with all bedrooms, in this home we had to share bathrooms. An extra refrigerator would be nice too!!! The home came as pictured online with lots of extra bed linens, beach towels, outside toys and lawn chairs! Thank you for a fun and memorable weekend!
