About this apartment rental

Get away from it all and enjoy some much deserved rest & relaxation from this newly built, comfortably furnished oceanfront home! Feel the ocean breezes on your face, watch the waves crash on to shore and let the sounds of the sea lull you to sleep! This beach front, dog-friendly, elevated beach bungalow boasts rejuvenating views of the ocean. You can enjoy the sights & sounds of the Atlantic Ocean from the deck, living room, kitchen and dining room. Only 6 houses down from Folly Beach's Lighthouse Inlet Heritage Preserve and the trail to view the Morris Island lighthouse, the quaint cottage is tucked away from the hustle & bustle of Center Street and Folly Beach's commercial district.

We had a wonderful stay at Surf Song! It was comfortable for the 5 adults, one baby, and one dog that we had with us. The kitchen was well appointed for what we needed. Some beach chairs were provided which came in handy. The view off of the back patio was all of our favorite! Can’t beat being right on the water. We loved the location, too—tucked towards the lighthouse end of the island. It was removed from the bustle of central Folly Beach, was quiet, and felt private and tucked away. Great place to stay!

The house was a dream. The owners have it super well taken care of. They were understanding of our expectations and were a true gentleman and a lady. If you can get this place, do it!
