The Tiny Shack

With a little engineering and shabby-sheik ingenuity we turned our old office and storage space into Folly Beach’s cutest efficiency unit with all brand new construction, finishes, and décor. Think small and pretty. If you are an NFL lineman and your significant other is a WNBA star this is not the place for you. It is tiny, yes, but has everything you need for the perfect getaway. You have a full size bed to cuddle close and nap after a great beach day.Watch TV on the flat screen, or prep some snacks in the kitchenette. Your bistro table is more like a corner spot at a cozy Manhattan mini bar, and you can shower in luxury in the brand new tile bath with a modern sleek glass shower that feels more like The Ritz Carlton in Fiji than TheRathershacks on Folly. The main room measures 10ft x12ft- not including the 3ft x 5ft kitchenette, 5ft x 6ft bath, and 2ft x 4ft closet. Outside the front door you have your own dedicated covered patio so you can max relax, all under the watchful eyes of a mermaid and her dolphin friends. You have a small semi-private fenced back yard where there is a grill to channel your inner Bobby Flay or Rachel Ray, and an outdoor shower to wash off the sand and sea of the day. All of this is just a 45 second walk to the beach, and 5 minutes to all the bars and restaurants Folly Beach has to offer. Small is the new big at our latest shack. You will love it!!

    Me and my partners loved the place! Would be nice to have an oven, or a toaster.

    This property was very comfortable and quaint. The beach is just a block away, and the owner was helpful in answering all of our questions. The property is just a 5-10 minute walk from all the fun in the little beach town.

    This property was just as described. It has everything you would need for beach stay. It was very clean, quiet and convenient to the beach and town. I would highly recommend if you want a hotel type experience without the hassle of check in, elevators and people. I hope to book again in the future.

    I was traveling alone and this place is perfect for one person or a couple that likes to be in close quarters. It was very clean, tastefully decorated, and had a perfect layout for such a small space. Clearly a lot of thought was put into how to make this “Tiny Shack” very comfortable and functional. It has a private patio, outdoor shower, and yard where I loved starting and ending my days. It’s an easy walk to the beach and downtown. Highly recommended!

    The Tiny Shack was literally across the street from the beach. Wonderful location, clean apartment, and everything you would need for a fun beach getaway.

    A perfect place for the two of us. It was even better laid out than expected, had everything we needed, super clean and very cute. 2 minutes to the beach and a short walk to Center St. Highly recommend.

    I stayed here for a week and this was a great little spot. Brand new renovation, very clean, and beautiful private outdoor space. It was the perfect spot for a solo traveler. It is a very easy walk to the beach and only a couple blocks from the Center St hub.

    It is small but we loved it! Accurate description. Shower was wonderful, 10/10 water pressure (my pet peeve). Nice inside and out. The outdoor shower a very nice amenity. Very easy for beach access. Grocery items very close at Bert’s. Recommend.

    My wife and I had a fantastic trip to Folly Beach staying at the Tiny Shack to kick off our summer and celebrate our wedding anniversary. Tiny Shack was a brief walk to the beach, when carrying chairs and a cooler it felt seamless with the short distance. The room was extremely clean and up to date with a modern feel. The downtown area was also a quick walk to enjoy the local bars and restaurants. The hosts’ recommendations list is spot on, and I encourage any future quests to review it. Katt was very quick to respond to our communications and make it an easy process to check-in. It was a great experience, and we plan to stay here again in the future.

    We stayed in the Tiny Shack for a week in April and could not have loved it more. The Shack is located a short walk to anything in Folly Beach and only a 2 min. walk to the ocean. Although the Shack is small, it is not cramped since you can go out to the adjacent covered porch and enjoy the breeze and beautiful view. Everything is new and very clean as well as nicely decorated. We, very much ,would stay here again.
