Hawks Nest Beach is a family friendly beach community. Grab a bike from the garage, pick out a backpack beach chair and you are on the beach in 5 minutes. During the summer season, take the kids for a bike ride over to Sound View, ride the carousel (hope you get the brass ring), treat yourself to some ice cream or Vecchitto's Italian Ice. If you are not into the little kid stuff, Kokomo's or the Pavilion can provide a fun night!

Plenty of things to do within a short drive, Mystic Aquarium or Seaport, Mohegan Sun Casino, Goodspeed Opera House, Essex Steam Train, Westbrook and Clinton Outlet Malls, Golf courses, Kayaking, Fishing...

Extended stay during transition
This home was better than I ever could've expected! You don't get the full view or feel through the photos. I got to stay a couple of months and I can honestly say that out of all the vacation rentals I have booked, this one was far superior. The house was fully stocked with everything you could ever want or need. Quite honestly, Ive never seen anything like it. Very spacious, very comfortable and very quiet. The home was also spotless upon my arrival. Great area, great neighborhood. Kudos to Meg and Jay on a fantastic job. Great hosts! 10's across the board!! The only negative was that I had to leave!

Excellent beach home!
We recently stayed at this home for the second year in a row. Again this year, we were pleasantly greeted with a welcome basket full of goodies to enjoy during our stay and a personalized note! We love to open the doors to the brightly colored walls and beach décor. This home truly has everything that a traveler would need on a beach vacation. The house is kept very clean, neat and organized. The many air conditioning units make it easy to stay comfortable on hot days and nights. Every kitchen utensil and appliance necessary could be easily located and were all cooking ready. The towels and linens were fresh and ready for use upon arrival. We all love the entertainment closet, full of puzzles, games and barbies! The house offers at least 15 bikes of all sizes and skill levels so each family member could ride to the beach! Our children loved the gaming system and the many television streaming services. Outside the home, the fenced in back yard is excellent for small children and we made use of all of the outdoor games, sidewalk chalk, ladder ball, etc.! We loved the outdoor shower and nearby clothes line. The hose also came in handy for rinsing off our sea salty items. We enjoyed the fire pit and made use of the outdoor grill and seating on the patio area nightly. We were so fortunate to make Meg and Jason’s house our home away from home for another year of memories at Hawk’s Nest Beach!

Great Accommodations
We had a wonderful week at Hawks Nest Beach. This lovely home provided everything anyone could need and more including an array of bicycles to ride around the neighborhood and get us quickly to the beach. The kitchen is well stocked. The owners were pleasant and very responsive. The welcome basket was an unexpected and appreciated surprise; enjoyed by all.

Wonderful house for a family!
Meg's house was perfect for our family week at the beach.... clean, comfortable and well-stocked. There were multiple bikes and beach chairs to choose from, plenty of bath and beach towels, and a large selection of kitchen supplies. The floor layout and comfy furniture suited everyone's needs.

Wonderful property! As described- well stocked and very comfortable- from beds to layout. Beach chairs and cart made the short walk to the beach even more convenient. Quiet neighborhood and great location central to lots of attractions and conveniences. Would recommend!
