About this Property

• Sleeps 4
• 1 Bedrooms
• 1 Bathrooms
• Cottage

This striking bungalow is a haven tucked off of Folly Road. Only 5 mins. from Folly Beach and 8 mins. from downtown historical Charleston.
This hideout is not in a neighborhood and the weather right now is ideal for the new firepit with cabana out back!
The porch over looks a huge back yard that is framed in by four majestic Grandiose Oaks that are draped with Spanish Moss, hence how the bungalow was named. While calming it is possible to see occasional wildlife!

There is a enormous driveway for big toys!
Grocery store, restaurant/bar and brewery right across Folly Rd.

Guest access:
The appeal 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 bigger home on right with the bungalow after.

Please contact host for key code.

Our top Rental property booking tips:

How to get the best value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of SC. To find the best value, change your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer excellent temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Charleston area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer special rates for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guides contain money saving offers on local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Make a plan and pick yourrental:

• First and foremost, have your family commit to the best dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family requires. Grand Oaks Cottage: Ideal Location! New Fire Pit! has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Charleston area vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is often available on booking websites. If not, reach out to the property management company before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.

Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Pet fees or may be applied to your invoice.

Considerations for your stay:

• Get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your .
• During arrival, document any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent a lot of concerns.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be a great source for finding the best local attractions.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Re-check the property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and look for damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
