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.

Great place for a work trip

First, I absolutely recommend this property for folks visiting the area, especially if you have a dog! I was in town visiting a friend and working for a couple days, and the cottage suited my needs perfectly. It was cozy, clean, had a LARGE yard with fun amenities, and had a convenient location for my activities. I also had a chance to meet the hosts who were very welcoming and accommodating. Location wise, the cottage is hidden off a main road (Folly Beach Road), so it is super convenient in terms of getting around John's Island and Folly Island. The large yard and outdoor amenities definitely add the the nice vibe of the cottage and made it a nice place to hang outside.

Home Away From Home

Absolutely loved our stay. The area is so beautiful and the house we stayed in was just the perfect size for us. Close to everything Charleston had to offer. The owners were extremely friendly. Definitely one of the most comfortable vacations we have ever been on. We really want to come back one day. Thank you so much!

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!

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!
