**4th of July 2026 will be a two week stay from 6/27/26-7/11/26** New England beach house charm meets modern comfort and convenience! The kitchen is well-stocked with everything you might need to cook at home, including a gas range, Instant Pot, and Keurig. Warm summer evenings invite cookouts on the grill and meals on the patio. With access to the private Hawk's Nest Beach just a five minute walk away, you'll be able to soak up the sun from a lounge chair, swim in the gentle waves of the Long Island Sound and search for seashells along a private and pristine section of shoreline in Old Lyme.

Rinse the sand off in the backyard outdoor shower, share family meals on the spacious deck and wave to neighbors from the Adirondack chairs on the front porch. Lasting memories are just waiting to be made at Be Happy!

    The house and property were immaculate. The kitchen was very well equipped. The beds were very comfortable. It is in a very nice neighborhood very close to the beach. Brad and Hillary were very helpful with suggesting local attractions and places to eat. Our family of six thoroughly enjoyed the week we spent there. The games and toys kept our two and six year old busy. We had such a wonderful week and hope to be back again.

    We really enjoyed our stay here. The house was spotless, the beds were comfortable, the host was responsive and helpful. The decor was beachy but also modern. Very helpful extras included coffee, beach chairs and towels and a wagon to carry everything to the beach. We loved the house and would definitely stay again.

    This was our third year staying at the Be Happy Beach House and we couldn't be happier (except if it was situated directly on the beach). The home is well-kept and clean, well-equipped with many needs including an array of coffee pods! and accommodated 6 adults +2 infants comfortably. Really a great place!

    Our family of 5 absolutely loved everything about the Be Happy house. The house was exactly as described and came with everything we needed to be comfortable for 2 weeks. Communication was excellent. We look forward to staying again.

    We were a group of 4 women friends celebrating 50 years of friendship for a getaway weekend. House was perfect spot to relax.the neighborhood is lovely & quiet with a private beach we truly enjoyed. Lots of great restaurants nearby with gluten free options, we recommend Breakwater, Il Pomodoro & Hangry Goose. Cute towns to explore Stonington , Old Saybrook, Old Lyme with shops & museums. The owner is very responsive way to message & check in is a breeze. You will definitely BeHappy at this VRBO!

    This was probably the most well equipped rental we’ve stayed in, literally had everything we needed and more! House is beautifully decorated, beds were comfy, and plenty of space to spread out and relax. Good sized beach, nice and clean, a bit of a walk to get there but no hills and easy enough with the wagon that was on site. Water was shallow, kids loved walking out to the dock at low tide. The owners were very responsive and helpful. Thank you for sharing your gorgeous home!

    Visited for Memorial Day weekend. Neighborhood is VERY quiet - wouldn’t believe we were a quick walk from the beach with how relaxing it was outdoors. The layout of the home gives space to spread out and enjoy some downtime. Owners very responsive and helpful. Hope to be back again!
