Folly Beach Getaway w/ Game Room, Outdoor Dining + Charleston Access

Welcome to Family Tides, by AvantStay—where laid-back Folly Beach living meets easy indoor-outdoor entertaining.

Located on the East side of Folly Beach, you’re just moments from the shoreline and a short bike or drive from the island’s beloved Center Street, where beach bars, seafood shacks, and live music set the tone for carefree evenings. Spend your mornings walking the sand, afternoons paddleboarding or fishing off the Folly Beach Pier, and evenings dining with ocean breezes in the air. Historic Downtown Charleston is also within easy reach, making day trips for shopping, dining, and sightseeing effortless.

Inside, the home’s open-concept layout keeps everyone connected. The chef’s kitchen is fully equipped for group meals and features generous counter space, flowing seamlessly into the dining area with seating for six. Whether you’re prepping fresh seafood or hosting a casual brunch before the beach, everything feels social and easy.

When it’s time to unwind, the living area invites you to settle in, while the game room brings the fun with a foosball table, pingpong table, and large TV—perfect for friendly tournaments or movie nights after a sun-soaked day.

Step outside and you’ll find one of the home’s best features: an expansive deck designed for slow mornings and long evenings. A covered lounge area with seating and a table for four makes al fresco dining simple, while the grill stands ready for coastal cookouts. A hammock adds the finishing touch—ideal for an afternoon nap with the salt air drifting by.

The home comfortably sleeps six guests across three queen bedrooms. The primary suite features a queen bed and a private ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower. Two additional queen bedrooms offer relaxed comfort and share access to two additional full bathrooms—one with a tub/shower combo and another with a walk-in shower—making it easy for everyone to get ready after beach days.

A washer and dryer add convenience for longer stays, so you can pack light and focus on the fun.

Whether you’re here for beach days, game nights, or exploring the charm of Folly and nearby Charleston, Family Tides delivers a stay that feels effortless, social, and distinctly coastal.
