“It was all a dream!” This greets you as you enter the “Sassy Shack” and it’s fitting. This original “Shack” has been transformed with all new updates that breathe fresh breath of “Sassy”. Get a taste of authentic Folly Beach life when you step inside of the Sassy Shack. Recently refurbished head to toe, this second row home offers everything you need to enjoy a peaceful and relaxing vacation on the Charleston Coast. Fit with a charming duplex-style layout, the Sassy Shack offers the perfect amount of privacy on your stay.

Conveniently located across the street from the beach on the west end of the island, Sassy Shack is steps away from some of the best sunsets in Charleston. Just right down the road is Folly Beach County Park, Center street and Sunset Cay marina. The Sassy Shack offers the best of both worlds, being so close to the ocean, and a golf cart ride away to the park and entertainment. The newly added private pool is perfect for a dip after the beach. The freshly painted and new decor of the home really accentuates the funky Folly Beach vibe. The cozy kitchen is fully stocked, and ready for low country boils, takeout, and snacks for the beach!

With 4 bedrooms, and room for 8 people, feel free to bring the whole family with you to explore a taste of what the Lowcountry has to offer. Twin beds upstairs off of the main living room are perfect for the kids in the family, while the spacious king bed upstair and 2 more queen rooms makes the perfect shot gun layout of the house.

Bed Layout: King, Queen, Queen, 2 Twins

The Sassy Shack has been a proven hot spot for families vacationing on Folly Beach for years now, and with the recent upgrades to the home, we’re positive it can become the next best spot for you and your family as well!

Folly Beach is a unique blend of laid-back charm and modern amenities. Also, don't forget to make time for Historic Charleston! Folly is the closest beach to Charleston, located only 25 minutes from downtown shopping and world class dining. You can visit the aquarium, stroll through the famous plantations, enjoy a sunset cruise through Charleston Harbor or take a carriage ride through downtown.

Bait and switch
The rental company changed property without notification. Only reason I noticed is because I actually read the rental contact. Unit provided - cockroaches, condom wrapper, no pool access (even after rental company confirmed it was ready for use prior to arrival). On a more positive note - the unit we had was decorated well, perfect location, and beds comfy.

Good Folly stay
Overall a nice property in an excellent location - very short walk to the beach. The newer pool is well maintained and wonderful for kids. The house is on the older side, with doors that don’t always latch and bathrooms/kitchen that could use a little TLC. But found it met our family’s needs and budget and would potentially stay again.

Folly near the water
Great location right near beach. Beautiful views and the inground pool is spectacular. Interior of house is very dated and has not been updated much. Many of the rooms doors do not latch and the furniture is quite old. Some fixtures are likely original to the house. Exterior of house is not impressive. Beautiful front porch with views to ocean. If you are looking to rent rustic near the beach with a nice pool and lot, this is your place.

Excellent location and accommodations
We had an amazing time staying at The Sassy Shack and hope to come back someday! The pool was perfect and the location can’t be beat. So many great artistic features of the furnishings, also made it so special. It has just about everything you need to make great food and drinks. Plenty of towels were provided and it was very clean and organized. Hope very much to return!

Great location. House is very basic but mattresses were good. Kitchen is mostly one of a kind so if you have favorite knife or tools pack them. Lots of bugs inside. A bit too cool for pool but very pretty.

Great Location
Overall stay was good. Management company contacted me a few days before arrival informing me that the homeowner would be in town for a conference and would be staying in the ground level unit. This caught me off guard a bit - informing rather than asking, especially since I was looking for a rental where we had the entire property. In the end it was fine because the homeowner was only there for 2 days (one night). As far as the property and amenities, I have the following comments: -Pool lounge chairs were in bad shape - wood slats broken and overall frail feeling -toilet paper and paper towels was very limited for the duration of our stay -shower curtain was stained and quite gross -location to beach and restaurants was incredible (easy walk to everything) -screened in porch in front of house was great to escape the mosquitos yet still have fresh air

Well appointed, airy and cozy beach rental
My family and I had a wonderful stay at the Sassy Shack this spring. The house was amazing - cozy and decorated with a cool beach vibe. The pool was the biggest attraction for my kids; mine was the screened in porch and walks on the beach! This was our first trip to Folly Beach and Sassy Shack but it won’t be our last!

Our stay at the Sassy shack
We loved our vacation at the sassy shack. Charming old cottage right across from the beach. We loved the old feel of the cottage with updated furnishings. Screened in front porch was our favorite spot besides being poolside. Awesome fenced in yard with beautiful pool. With the additional basement space there is plenty of room. Basement space is not connected to main level space so we could not put our small children there but for older kids and teenagers it would be a perfect space for them. Kitchen has everything you need but it is a very small alley kitchen so if you plan to cook a lot or have multiple people helping with cooking it can get crowded quickly.

Wonderful Stay!
Loved this home, which was the perfect setup for our group. The downstairs unit was perfect for older teens who needed some getaway time, and the upstairs was our central hub for meals, porch sitting, etc. The location is away from Center Street craziness, which is great for families. Public beach access is just a short walk away. The pool was a wonderful addition and the yard is fenced and was spacious enough for games of corn hole. Our pup loved it! We had a little issue at first with the downstairs toilet not flushing, and the management co was very responsive. Will definitely return to this property!

Great location, listing not entirely accurate
This home is located in an excellent location a short walk from the beach. It is newly painted and the decor is super cute. We loved our time out on the screened in porch! The management company were very responsive and check-in/out was easy. However, there were a few concerns with the property especially given the high price tag. A major one is that the listing states that the home is 6 bedrooms, but does not mention that the 2 bedrooms downstairs are an entirely separate unit. You need to exit the main house to access the lower unit downstairs. This is something that should be pointed out as we had thought we could put some of the kids into one of those rooms, but they were too young to put into an entirely separate space. It might be ok for teenagers or for 2 families who want to be separated. Also, the downstairs unit had older window a/c units, and one of them was so loud and rickety it would be very difficult to sleep next to. I was traveling with my sister and brother in-law and they both felt uncomfortable sleeping downstairs as they felt it smelt musty from pervious water damage. I wouldn't have minded as much had the price not been as high. I was expecting much more for the amount that we paid. That being said, the rental company said that they would be contacting me to discuss some sort of compensation as they recognized our concerns. Unfortunately it has been a month and I have yet to hear from them.
