Privacy and Seclusion - Marsh View 150 Yards from Front Beach

The PALMETTO PEARL is not just another Beach House. It's an exceptional vacation experience. Privacy just 150 yards from the Ocean is hard to find in any Beach Community. That's only one of the many features The Palmetto Pearl has to offer. This absolutely unique original Folly Beach Property has been in our family for over 40 years and was offered as a Vacation Rental in 2012 after undergoing a complete renovation. Since that time we have continued to upgrade the house on an annual basis. During the pandemic lockdown we took the opportunity to completely refurnish the great room and the screen porch. The back deck was completely renovated with a new composite deck. A new driveway with designated parking was also added. The Palmetto Pearl is set back from the roadway on a high lot surrounded by a small forest of Palmetto (Palm) Trees and Grande Oaks. The back deck offers fabulous sunset's with private views of the estuaries and salt marshes of the Folly River. With easy access to the Beach, the Palmetto Pearl is additionally less than a 1/4 mile from the "Washout" reportedly some of the best surfing on the east coast, and the venue for many sanctioned surfing competitions throughout the year. The Palmetto Pearl is in close proximity to all Folly River Recreational Activities such as para-sailing or kayaking and canoeing expeditions. As well, public tennis courts are within 5 blocks of the house, only a short bike ride away or even shorter drive where parking is available. All of this and the comforts and privacy of a family home. Nestled among the Palmettos you can enjoy the Morning Sunrise or Afternoon Ocean Breezes on the screened porch that runs along the entire front of the house without baking in the heat of Charleston's summer sun or catch some afternoon rays or evening cocktails in complete privacy of the back sundeck which boasts a gas grill, generous seating and plenty of space for entertaining or just lounging about. Bicycle and golf cart rentals are also available on the island.


Keywords: Newly Renovated and Updated. This Authentic Folly Beach House has been in the family for over 40 years. Nestled in a forrest of Palms with private views of the Folly River's marshes and estuaries this home sits only 150 yards from the Beach Front. Convenience and Privacy make this a truly unique resort property.

Great location and perfect little beach house

Very nice little beach cottage. Clean and orderly. Lots of paperwork and rules, but that’s a sign of the times I guess. Closest beach access is convenient and a nice uncrowded spot on Folly. Nice marsh in the backyard that allowed for some good birding in the back yard. Need a golf cart or bikes to best get around the island.

Ideal Folly stay

The location was wonderful. A mile walk into Folly proper, on the marsh and a 5 minute walk to the beach. The house was a nice 2 bedroom off the road. It was airy and just right for our family of 4 adults. The front screened porch was a nice get away and the back deck wonderful for morning coffee with t a marsh view. Chairs and boogie board were available for the beach. The only thing I would have wanted was an easily functioning sliding door to the deck and dish towels (we didn't find any if they were there. I would definitely stay there again.

BFF Get-Away

What a lovely reprieve. The Palmetto Pearl is situated perfectly just off the beach road, perfect stroll to beach access and to downtown activities. The back deck is about as quiet as it can be except for birds and breezes. The front porch is a dream. The bedroom were super comfortable and cool. Almost don’t want to recommend so kept this a secret! Thank you.

Long Weekend Away

Exactly what we needed. Quiet and private and very close to the beach! Close enough to go back for something, to go for a sunrise and sunset, and then to go for walk at night under the moonlight. Only a couple things need work: the sliding door and the speakers for the TV system. The view of the marsh was beautiful and peaceful. The screened in porch was fantastic. The entire space was comfy. Nothing fancy, but everything you need.

Family visit to Folly Beach/Charleston

Great place for small family or couple. Very short walk and access to beach. Appreciate them having some beach chairs as well. Loved the screened in front porch for sitting and transitioning to house from beach. Do recommend as others have to update some of the kitchen pots and pans as they are in need of it.

Experience

Our experience here was overall good. However, I would not recommend staying here if you have a golf cart that needs charging. The only way to do it is to leave the back door unlocked and cracked open. I did not feel comfortable with this but there was no other option as there is no outlets outside of this home. I felt like I was irritating the owners with questions. I only asked two questions and one got answered. For this reason I did not feel comfortable contacting them for anything else during our four day stay.

If you plan to stay at this cottage you will not regret it. The owners have thought of everything you may need during your stay. It was very clean and and very comfortable. I would highly recommend this cottage if you plan to stay in Folly. The whole cottage was very homey. Parking was great. Beach was just a short walk away. It was hard to leave. Definitely recommend we loved it.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Palmetto Pearl. Everything was clean. Nicely furnished kitchen. Comfortable beds. Warm atmosphere. Really enjoyed the front porch and back deck.

Nice Comfy House

We enjoyed our stay at this well maintained property. Location was wonderful for it's short walk to the beach. Front screened porch was spacious and comfortable (road noise was a bit of a nuisance but the house is set back from the road so not terrible). View from back of the house was really nice. Would have been perfect with screened in porch on back of house because bugs chased us in from there. House is on the smallish side but the large front porch allowed us to stretch out comfortably. The place was well cleaned with good linens and towels. Owners were kind and responded quickly. Overall a very nice stay.
