About this house rental

Located in Folly Beach, this lovely house for $700 per night is a great choice for your next vacation. Turtle Watch BEACH FRONT - owner managed. 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths large beautifully spacious and very comfortable home. It has spectacular sunrises and moon-rises over the pier with full view of the Ocean, all from the screened-in porch off the Main living room floor. The screened in porch is really the focal point for any beach front home....No Bugs! It has composite decking so also very nice on the feet and good for babies to crawl on as well. The hammock on the screened in porch is a must of course. Nothing like a nap to sounds of the ocean! Turtle Watch Beach House is far enough away from town to hear the ocean sing yet so close with a 10min walk to town. In the summer May - October Sea Turtles arrive on Folly Beach to nest for hundreds of years right in the backyard. It's an amazing site to witness quietly! Turtle Watch is beautifully decorated with updated furniture and decor from beach spots all over the globe. The furnishing and decor give this home a very comfortable homey vibe. There are several areas to tuck away and relax with a book, sway in 1 of 2 hammocks, gather for games or just be in the moment from the upstairs library, (2) sundecks, screened in porch, office area or one of the three seating areas on the main level or two seatings area on the ground level. Or maybe, let Melanie know you would like to arrange to rent a golf cart, or bikes, and have them ready upon your arrival for nice stroll over the 4 miles of Folly Beach, the closest beach to Charleston Downtown, 15mins! Turtle Watchs' (5) bedrooms are also fully appointed with a TV in every sleeping room, with HBO and Starz. Beds are (2) Kings (2) Queens (1) twin/double bunk (1) day bed and are all very comfortable with GOOD mattresses, good thread linens and "non - lumpy" pillows with four on every bed. (2) sets of bath, hand and face towels in each room. Kitchen is opened up all the way around a gas stove top in the island for easy cooking. With a kitchen that is fully stocked with all the kitchenware imaginable: blenders, choppers, toasters, 12 cup coffee, 1 cup Kuerig, baking and roasting dishes, pots, pans, casserole dishes. Plus place settings, cutlery and glassware, for 14ppl. Owner loves cooking and entertaining. You should want for nothing. Turtle Watch Beach House provides ample beach and activity accessories. (4) beach chairs, (2) umbrellas, (8) Beach towels, an array of beach buckets, pales, shovels for building sandcastles, beach paddle ball, (4) frisbees, and a tub of baby water toys including an a small baby pool! The private beach access walkway is key to a beach front home. Owner put in an IPE wood beach access boardwalk to the beach. What does this means its a brazilian hardwood with very smooth surfaces so NO SPLINTERS! Yippie! It's very nice on the feet as apposed to old cracking wood decks. The two sun decks, one on the 3rd floor for privacy and one along the Board Walk between the house and the beach are a great seating area or for private sun bathing areas. Historic Charleston is within an easy 15 minute driving distance. Downtown Charleston has an outstanding array of Cuisine, Harbor Dining, Roof Top Dining, and of course Causal Dining. Tip: Seafood is fresh and definitely a must to sample. The market section in Downtown is sure to please any avid shopper. Charleston has several Historic Plantations and Gardens nearby.

Turtle Watch is in an incredible location. Waking up looking at the waves is a little mind blowing. The house is perfect for eight (or ten) people. Kitchen has everything. Everything worked. It was a memorable week for our family.

What a fabulous place this is. We’ve been renting summer vacation houses for over 10 years and Turtle Watch is now top of our list. The kitchen was very well stocked for all our cooking needs and the few times we didn’t cook, we walked to the local restaurants. We loved the screened in back porch where we sat and watched the waves and yes, a few dolphin swam by. The kids especially liked the closeness of our “backyard beach”. The overall decor of the house reflected a very welcoming feeling that allows you to relax and enjoy time with family. Definitely will visit again.

We stayed at Turtle Watch for a week with immediate and extended family. The house is beautifully kept, landscaping gorgeous and inviting, clean and very well stocked. We had small issue not being able to open freezer and the owner Melanie was there in 15 minutes to correct the problem. No further dilemmas all week. Air conditioning was great and very comfortable. Plenty of supplies with specific instructions…which I appreciate! We are all on the same page regarding expectations. The views from her home spectacular. She was only a call away if we needed. We would love to return in the future….she made the whole process very simple. Thank you Melanie for sharing your beautiful home with our family!
