8th Block E Ashley Ave - Board & Batten Cottage - Dog Friendly

Please note: This property is located in a quiet residential community and Folly Beach has a strict noise ordinance violation rule of 1 strike. Simply respect your neighbors, keep the noise down and no parties.

Welcome to The Board and Batten! This cozy 3 BED/1.5 Bath Folly Beach board and batten cottage sleeps 6 guests. A large back porch with plenty of outdoor space can accommodate your entire group! Conveniently located a few minutes from the beach and 8 blocks away from Center Street.

This home is full of Folly charm and offers a fully equipped kitchen with a gas range, oven, dishwasher, microwave and fridge. The living room and kitchen provide tons of light and back views of the Folly River through the large windows and two porches (front, and back) are ideal for enjoying the ocean breeze!

All living spaces and bedrooms are on the main level and the home is perched on one of the highest points of the island. Outside, you will enjoy the full wooded lot filled with ancient oak, magnolia, fig and palm trees that offer plenty of shade and ample parking. There is also a large private outdoor shower with hot and cold water, and laundry room on the ground level. Additionally, you will catch glimpses of the ocean from the front yard and there is a nearby footpath to the beach only steps away.

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!

NoiseAware is a smart home device that measures decibel levels, is 100% privacy compliant, and does not listen or record.

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

Loved the property and location! The deck and porches are the best. Ease to the beach and the fact that it was not too crowded by us adds to property . The twin beds could use replacing or a good mattress cover. But the awesome deck, location, and privacy of the super charming house more than made up for it.

Cottage stay

808 ashley embodies a true cottage on Folly vibe. Close to the water with views of the marsh was spectacular to enjoy for beach days and plentiful hangs on the porch. Sufficient linens and amenities and space! A bit dated appliances and it’s an old cottage but lovely no-frills vibe.

A beach house with character

What a lovely place! Clean and comfortable. Easy walk to the beach. I loved the family photos and letter about the history of the house. You can feel the good vibes. It’s an older beach house but I felt totally at ease there. Loved the kitchen table and view of the marsh from the back deck. It did not come furnished with beach chairs or a hair dryer, so be aware of that if those things are needed. Would stay here again!
