Photos and Description of the Folly Beach vacation cottage rental
Cottage, Studio + Loft, 1 Bath, (Sleeps 3-4)

We want to preserve our history on Folly Beach and pride ourselves on using reclaimed objects to design our property. The 'Seacret Cottage' is tucked away amongst the trees for a private and secluded feel. Yet, it is less than a half block to the shops & restaurants. The three block walk to the beach takes only approx. 5 minutes. We are only 10 miles East of Historic Downtown Charleston, SC with superb dining, shopping and numerous family oriented activities.

About Ginger Genesse

The innkeepers, Michael, Christy and Ginger have lived on Folly Beach for approx. 10 years. We all fell in love with the Island and are passionate about maintaining Folly's 'old beach feel'. They love the character and history of Folly's old beach cottages and often use reclaimed objects in renovating their cottages. To share their experience, they decided to rent their newly renovated cottage. Folly Beach is like no other beach. Come and get that 'Folly Feel' for yourself!

Ginger Genesse purchased this cottage in 2011
Why Ginger Genesse chose Folly Beach

Just built new/clean, adorable and cozy cottage nestled in the trees for privacy but close, 5 minute walk, to shops, restaurants and the beach!

What makes this cottage unique

Close to restaurants and bars but buffered from the noise of late night music and partying. Property manager and owners truly care for all of our guests and do as much as possible to make your stay great!

Charming!

Submitted: March 6, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
It was a such a charming cottage! My husband & I would recommend it to anyone looking for more of a homey feel. We actually spent a lot of time relaxing in the cottage. And we loved having our morning coffee at the little table overlooking the palm trees. If we visit Folly again we will stay here!!!

Great location and perfect little house!

5 of 5
Submitted: January 26, 2013 Stayed: January 2013
We had a amazing time at the secret cottage. It was renovated in great fashion, and they made an excellent use of the space. Eventhough it is small, it was fully equiped with everything that we would need and did not feel crowded.
The location is amazing, a very short walk from downton and from the beach.
The house manager, Ginger, was very friendly and took care of all of our needs.
We can't wait for our next trip back to the secret cottage in Folly!

What a cute place!

5 of 5

I love Folly's Secret cottage!! I am local and just wanted to hide out for a weekend and it was perfect. I got up early and walked to Black Magic Coffee for a Zippy Bean and almost had a mild stroke from the caffeine. Then I walked to the pier and watched the surfers. The cottage is next to Beachside Bed and Breakfast and when I returned from the beach Ginger (Innkeeper) and some of the guest were going to Art in the Park, so I went too! Then we hit Crab Shack for Bloody Mary's. I hated to go home even if home was just 20 minutes away!

Relaxing ~ Quiet ~ Getaway!

5 of 5
Submitted: August 22, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
This cottage was the perfect retreat for a quiet, relaxing get-away. The proximity to the beach, shops, dining makes the cottage a perfect place - once you arrive - you never need your car. The only thing I would change is perhaps the old fashioned sink in the bathroom. Otherwise we found the place very qaint and cozy with a very well stocked kitchen & creative use of such a small space.

Best little cottage on Folly

5 of 5
Submitted: August 21, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
Listing description is accurate; this cottage is very clean, has every basic kitchen tool, and is right in the middle of downtown fun without being noisy. The only sound at night is the tree frogs. Oak and palmetto trees surround the windows, the beds are very comfortable, and the parking is right in front of the entrance gate. As others have mentioned, Ginger is very wonderful; she greeted me and quickly checked me in, then left me to start my vacation. Overall, this is the best place to stay is you need a small, efficient space.
