About this house rental

Summary:

Marsh Mellow



The Space:

Wake up to ocean sunrises, unwind with marsh sunsets, and live the true Folly Beach lifestyle at this elevated coastal retreat located directly across the street from beach access.



Set along a scenic tidal creek on East Ashley Avenue, this beautifully updated two-story Folly Beach vacation home offers rare dual water views - the Atlantic Ocean out front and sweeping marsh, river, and Morris Island Lighthouse views behind.



Designed for effortless indoor–outdoor living, the home features multiple decks, balconies, and porches on both the front and rear - perfect for morning coffee, afternoon lounging, or evening cocktails as sea breezes roll in. Whether you’re watching waves crash or birds glide over the marsh, every level of the home invites you to slow down and soak it all in.

Inside, the open-concept main level is bright, spacious, and ideal for gathering. The fully equipped kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas, all framed by large windows showcasing water views. You’ll find three bedrooms on the main level, including a primary suite with a king bed and private bath, plus two queen bedrooms and a shared full bathroom. Ideal for families or groups traveling together.



Upstairs, two additional king bedroom suites each feature private bathrooms and their own balconies, offering peaceful retreats with elevated views of either the ocean or the marsh. In total, three of the five bedrooms include en-suite bathrooms, making this home especially comfortable for multi-generational stays or adult groups.

The home has been thoughtfully remodeled with new furniture, updated appliances, refreshed bathrooms, fresh paint, and new beds and bedding, blending coastal comfort with modern convenience. Guests enjoy fast WiFi, Smart TVs, cable, and plenty of space to relax after a day at the beach.



Step outside and you’re moments from the sand - beach access is directly across the street, making it easy to come and go throughout the day. When you’re ready to explore, Center Street’s restaurants, bars, shops, and live music are just a short drive away, while historic Downtown Charleston, known for its dining, culture, and shopping, is only about 15 miles from your door.



Guests consistently rave about the incredible views, unbeatable beach access, spacious layout, and unforgettable sunsets over the marsh. From the porches to the proximity, this home delivers everything people love about Folly Beach.



If you’re looking for a spacious Folly Beach home with water views, multiple decks, and direct beach access, this is the kind of place you’ll want to return to again and again.

8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Sep 2025
The kitchen setup was great. All the amenities were met. Lot's of games and activities for the kiddos. We loved the dock to watch the tiny crabs and to catch the beautiful sunsets. All the rooms were super clean. The floors were a bit sandy and squishy in the upstairs bedrooms. Not sure if you have water damage. Black mold is in the kitchen and around some vents. I'm sure it's hard to keep up with moisture and elements from the ocean. We had a beautiful family getaway Thank you

Our family had a lovely stay! The location, views and experience was just what we needed. The kitchen was well equipped. Beds were sooo comfy! I can’t say enough about the marsh views-the sunsets were breathtaking. Highly recommend this property!
6.0 / 10.0Average·Apr 2023
The home has a great location and half of it is updated. Two of the bathrooms are very old and so is all the furniture in all the bedrooms. The upstairs porches are dangerous and sagging and wood is soft. Upstairs and downstairs back porches leak water into the back of the house. Floors are wet inside when it rains. The upstairs airconditioning is non functional. We called for 5 days. Someone came out on day 3 but didn't fix it. We contacted Vacasa again and they didn't send anyone out to fix it. The upstairs was over 80 degrees at night. We had seniors staying with us and we were all so hot and couldn't sleep. If it weren't for these issues we would be back again.
