Grand Oaks Cottage: Ideal Location! New Fire Pit!

This charming cottage is a haven tucked off of Folly Road. Only 5 minutes from Folly Beach and 8 minutes from downtown historical Charleston.
This hideout is not in a neighborhood and the weather right now is perfect for the new firepit with cabana out back!
The porch over looks a large back yard that is framed in by four majestic Grand Oaks that are draped with Spanish Moss, hence how the cottage was named. While relaxing it is possible to see occasional wildlife!

There is a large driveway for big toys!
Grocery store, restaurant/bar and brewery right across Folly Rd.

OP-04780
Guest access:
The charm of the place is that it's tucked off the road! Rafael Lane can be tricky to find. Get in the median right across from Bohemian Bull restaurant. The dirt road is on the left. After turning onto the Lane, take a right at the first drive and come straight back down a gravel drive. There will be a larger house on right with the cottage after.

Please contact host for key code.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cottage, featuring a kitchenette with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. A Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Lovely little house
The house was nice and perfectly located to everything we were interested in seeing. My daughter loved playing outside and the swing. We even got to see a hawk that would visit the back yard frequently!

Fun Labor Day Getaway
Really nice quiet getaway for Labor Day weekend! Easy drive to and from the beach, very private and relaxing atmosphere. Really only complaint was that it got a little hot in the cottage at night, so you may want to bring an extra fan. Super cute place with everything you need!

Great property, awesome host!
My husband and I stayed at Grand Oaks cottage for our elopement and couldn’t have had a better time! Andy was an amazing host who gave great recommendations for local “hidden” treasures and made us feel so welcome! Andy truly cares for the property and his guests and we couldn’t recommend Grand Oaks Cottage enough!

Cozy cottage, great yard
The cottage is well stocked and comfortable, but the yard is what makes this place so amazing. There is a lovely outdoor bar setup with a tv and fire pit. Unfortunately the owner got upset because of the muddy footprints me and my dog got on the concrete floor of the cabana (it had just been raining for a week and the yard was very muddy), so just be warned even though it is an outdoor structure with a concrete floor, he does not want to see dirty foot prints!

Calm cottage in a central location
My husband and I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property. The cottage had everything we needed, plus a large outdoor area to enjoy the nice weather under the beautiful oak trees. It was in a perfect location, close to Folly Beach and nearby family on James Island. We’d definitely visit again!
