The City of Folly Beach has scheduled beach renourishment for this spring. The project will start at the West end of the island at the county park progressing towards the pier in blocks. The completion is slated for August. While this is welcomed news given the recent erosion from storms and high tides, we realize the potential for disruption based on the project’s timing.
We are committed to ensuring your vacation experience remains enjoyable. While most of the beach will remain publicly accessible during the construction, there is a possibility that certain sections of the beach, typically about 500 feet at a time, may be temporarily closed off. The active work area moves every 5 to 7 days on average.
Due to so many external factors, we have no way to predict an accurate timeline for when the project will be at any given location. However, if we anticipate in advance that the project may affect your stay, we will be reaching out to you.
In the small chance the project directly affects your beachfront vacation, we will work closely with you to discuss options.
This 5 bedroom and 4 bath home on Folly Beach is a little older, but beautiful, large, and well maintained with a lot of amenities. The home is decorated with color and common sense without the pushy, beach decorations you find in many coastal vacation rentals. Hardwood floors run throughout the common area which is largely made up of the living room, dining room and kitchen. All three share one large room with plenty of space left over. The wall facing the ocean is covered in tall windows and doors which allow viewing the intoxicating beach scene from the comfort of one of the three couches. However, a very spacious, wrap-around deck sits just on the other side of those doors with an army of rocking chairs at your disposal. Above that is another large deck which rests even with the roof providing a bird’s eye view of the east side of Folly Beach as well as the Atlantic Ocean. A private beach access ensures you are only a few easy steps from putting your feet in the sand. The bedrooms are carpeted, two of which have immediate access to a lounge/bar area that houses a miniature refrigerator. The lounge also connects the ocean deck to a separate side deck which has an ocean and marsh view. One of the other bedrooms has private access to that side deck as well as its own bathroom. The master bedroom at this vacation rental on Folly Beach is a study in classic coastal luxury. It is the only bedroom with hardwood floors as well as the only bedroom on the beach side of the house. As such, it is heralded with the same wondrous ocean view as the living/dining room. The master bathroom has a fully tiled and roomy stand-up shower while a large tub is the cherry on top. “Seascape Wonder” is far away from the downtown bustle of Center Street. While it will require a drive, or at least a bike ride, to get there, the distance provides a comforting solitude as well as the ability to listen to ocean without interruption. Here, it is easy to understand the local mantra, “Slow down, it’s Folly”. ***
