23 Center St - Sunny Side Down - Ideal Center Location Walkable to Pier and Restaurants

Please Note: Folly Beach has a strict noise ordinance violation rule of 1 strike. Simply respect your neighbors, keep the noise down and no parties.

Sunny Side Down is a duplex located steps from Center Street, the main hub of Folly Beach, where you can find all the local shops, restaurants and bars, and the beach is just a short three blocks away. The entrance to the shared backyard is located between the store called "Native" and the pay to park lot on W Erie, just down a short pathway and behind the privacy fence (see photo with the sign on the fence that reads "Sunny Side Up and Down"). Though this location is located directly on Center St, you still have 1 designated parking spot that the owner has obtained for you just across the street, down E Erie, behind the Crab Shack.

Sunny Side down features two bedrooms, each one with a queen bed. Each bedroom is equipped with a Smart TV and a fan. Sunny Side Down can comfortably sleep up to 5 people because the sofa conveniently slides out to accommodate an additional person.

Open concept kitchen/dining/living is equipped with a sofa, two club chairs and a high top dining table. The kitchen is fully equipped, less a dishwasher. Outdoors, guests can relax and have a drink on the deck under beautiful grape vines or enjoy the shared courtyard area with a full size grill, outdoor lounge furniture, and an outdoor shower. The private yard is fenced-in and the duplex does allow you to bring your dogs with you, upon approval with our office. Please note: there is one designated parking spot for guests of Sunny Side Down located just across the other side of Center Street.

This is a green property that features solar panels on the roof, all led lights, and use natural gas for the water heater. It is also a ground level property, making it a great choice for guests who have trouble with stairs.

Folly Beach, or as locals refer to it, The Edge of America, is a laid-back, golf-cart-friendly community with many great restaurants, a booming nightlife, plenty of shopping, water activities, and water tours. For more historic exploring, the famous Downtown Charleston is only a 25 - minute car ride, which offers endless fine dining, shopping, historical sites, and more. There is something for everyone here. We promise you will Folly in love with this beautiful island!

Even though this location is located centrally to Downtown Folly Beach, where you will experience some of the night life, the noise ordnance will still apply as this property is considered residential. To comply with Folly Beach's new strict noise ordinance, we now use noise sensors in our properties. NoiseAware is a smart home device that measures decibel levels, is 100% privacy compliant, and does NOT listen or record. If the noise level exceeds the legal limit for FB, you will receive a friendly reminder text message to turn the noise down. This will help avoid any violations with the FB police that can result in fines and revoke the homeowner's business license.

In that case, we reserve the right to terminate your rental agreement and will require that you vacate the property immediately without a refund.

Cute place

We had a soccer tournament in Charleston so we decided to make it a long weekend. We were looking for somewhere close to the beach for our down time and somewhere pet friendly and this place was perfect! Beds were super comfy and the outdoor area was so cute and relaxing!

Center of town

Perfect for a small group. Pet friendly. Great location, close to everything. Nice fenced in yard/patio. However, there is a port-a-John for a parking lot right next to the fence. It got pretty rank on the patio when it warmed up outside. Good potential, could use some new mattresses and shower head.

Return to Folly

Long overdue with family. Three 70 somethings stayed in the apartment and it was perfectly situated for guests with mobility issues. The patio was the perfect place to entertain nieces and nephews. Some noise from upstairs guests, but mostly during waking hours. The dedicated parking space was always available. We'll be back!

Sunny Side Down checks all the boxes! An extremely clean and comfortable stay in the perfect location. Once in the gate it’s so private and the wall hanging baskets and lighting add such a special touch. It’s a true hidden gem! We plan to stay again, and again!

Folly Beach, SC

The property was in a fantastic location just a couple blocks from the beach and right across the street from multiple restaurants, bars, and shops. The house itself was nice and fit the 3 of us well. There is only one mirror which is in the bathroom so if you know you will have multiple people getting ready to go out at once, come prepared! Overall the trip and property were fantastic.

The house was almost perfect!!! We were able to check in early. It was very clean and it was a short walk to the beach. The only issue was we were in the down stairs unit and the renters in the upstairs unit had teenagers and the made a lot of noise until about 1am every day!

Great Location!

The location is amazing, we never drove our car, totally walkable. Everything we needed for our 4 night stay was stocked. Could use more forks, only 2 available. A few negative issues, the toilet screams like a dying seal every time you flush. Could hear the upstairs guests every step and very bright lights shine into the bedrooms at night even when using the shades. But the worst issue is the outdoor area could use a serious pressure washing ( moldy) and freshen up. Twice our granddaughter slipped and fell on the deck when it was dampened by the rain. Thank goodness it wasn't my 82 year old Mother. We walked very carefully.

Wonderful and Convenient

This place was great for our family. Situated right by the shops and restaurants, you didn’t hear anything from the strip. Every room had a fan which helped keep the sound at bay and helped us sleep! There were people upstairs and we never heard them either. I would highly recommend this stay to anyone. We would come back.

I would consider this to be a hidden gem. As you walk down Center Street you would never expect that there is a cute little apartment tucked behind the bustling shops and restaurants. I really don't think you could get a better location. We didn't bother with a car or golf cart because once you step out the door you are in the middle of everything. And despite the prime location, the apartment still manages to be quiet and peaceful. I recommend it for a small group or family staying at Folly Beach.
