Charming House!

My family enjoyed their stay very much over the Columbus Day weekend! Hilary is a superb host! Very much on top in responding to my emails. The house is very charming, very comfy, very clean & nicely decorated. And you just get that homey feeling. The kitchen is well stocked. The beds are comfortable. We will surely come back in the near future. This is a home away from home!

Indoor and outdoor spaces at this home are inviting and very comfortable. Hilary was easy to communicate with and resolved the one problem we encountered. The property is one mile from downtown Rhinebeck where there are great restaurants. In addition to this there are a tremendous number of really fun things to do nearby including visits to FDR’s Estate, the Hudson River School of Art, the Rhinebeck Aerodrome, and much more!

Beautiful old house, peaceful environment

This home is surrounded by nature but a close drive to amenities. There are many peaceful sitting areas outside (including a fountain), as well as the pool area and upstairs deck with gas grill. It is pleasantly decorated with nice open spaces and a high ceiling. The kitchen has everything you need, and the owners, who are very helpful, generously offer the use of their collection of CDs and record albums. It was perfect for our family of 5; comfortable for everyone. Great in the warm weather but likely just as enjoyable in any season.

Beautiful and comfortable - The perfect getaway!

Our family stayed for a week. It was the perfect winter getaway from the city. The house is very spacious. My husband and I worked and were able to have zoom meetings while my daughters played in and outside in the beautiful yard. We love to cook and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The property is private and close to Rhinebeck Village (only a mile). Hillary was absolutely wonderful and extremely responsive. Hope to visit again, next time to enjoy the pool in Summer!

Wonderful house in wonderful neighborhood

We enjoyed our stay in Rhinebeck, the house had all amenities necessary including fully stocked kitchen and bathrooms. Very comfortable, impressive and interesting decor from around the world. The neighborhood is delightful with a beautiful park and trail system as well as a short walk to downtown Rhinebeck. The library made us want to stay longer to read all of the wonderful books! We'll be back!

comfortable stay

My family stayed at “the happy house” for a week. Our stay was wonderful. The house had plenty of room for my niece and daughter to resume zoom meetings without making the rest of us tiptoe around. So many quiet relaxing areas both indoor and out! The kitchen is well stocked with utensils, cookware and modern appliances. There is ample seating indoors and out. I sat every morning on the deck with my coffee listening to the birds. The property is private and and spacious. Hillary was easy to work with and responsive. Pool was GREAT!

What a wonderful hideaway minutes from Rhinebeck village. The pool is very private and delightful. Great kitchen for preparing meals to eat out in the deck. Or head into town for some excellent resturants. Hilary was very responsive and friendly. Loved this home

Restorative Winter Sta

We spent a lovely week at this cozy home in Rhinebeck. The house was impeccably clean and a short drive and nice walk from the village of Rhinebeck and all of the shops and restaurants. We spent a lot of time just reading and relaxing in the large and comfy living room which got plenty of great light. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking although we were so close to so many great restaurants it was tempting to do takeout each night. If you do need to work, the WiFi was high speed and well suited for that. Overall, we had a great time and would love to return in the spring when it is warmer and we can enjoy the house’s outdoor amenities.

Beautiful large home in Rhinebeck

This was our second stay at The Happy House and we had a great time again! The house is a 2 minute drive from all the shops and restaurants in Rhinebeck and centrally located near tons of other cute towns (Kingston, Saugerties, Red Hook, Hudson - to name just a few). There are 3 large bedrooms upstairs, one has two twin beds which was perfect for my kids to share. There are a ton of kids toys in the home (games, blocks, books, etc), so everyone stayed entertained. The host was very communicative throughout our stay and offered tips on things to do locally. If you visit in the winter, there is a great sledding hill in the backyard next to a treehouse and a slide and the house is 30 minutes from several mountains for skiing/tubing. We hope to come back in the summer so we can check out the pool on the property!

A lovely stay

We had a wonderful time away in Hilary's cozy and immaculately clean place. The main room/ kitchen, where you will probably spend most of your time, was very light and open, and we even got to make a fire in the library, which was very special. Our kids loved the slide in the backyard too!

Beautiful home for a family getaway!

Perfectly situated right outside of beautiful Rhinebeck on a tree lined road. It’s the best of both worlds, completely in nature with the amenities just a few minutes away. We loved the huge deck, grill and outdoor dining area - so much so we ate with Jackets on just to enjoy the beauty of the overhanging trees, deer and fresh air. Fun playhouse with a slide for kids and lots of room to run around. The cozy home had a fabulous home office area to work remote and superb WiFi. The rental process was easy and the host is superb and was incredibly helpful and gracious. We can’t wait to be back!

Such a Beautiful, Perfect Weekend

We very much enjoyed our stay in this lovely family vacation home. The location was just about as perfect as it could be--walking distance to Rhinebeck Village, yet still very much away from it all. And it was obvious that the owner, who was super easy to get along with, had lavished much care into making the house into a real retreat. The decor was really beautiful and interesting, but not so fussy as to be uncomfortable. There was a wall of books, lovely old toys, CDs, etc., all of which we were encouraged to use (Hilary even provided a reading recommendation). The kitchen was well appointed and well organized, and we very much enjoyed using the grill. We would happily go back again.

Great Location

We stayed at Hillary's house for a week and a half just after Labor Day. Located a mile from the center of Rhinebeck Village the house has a great combination of being very near shops and restaurants but was also pleasantly secluded. While there were only a few of us here, this property could easily accommodate a larger group with plenty of different areas for people to relax and spread out. The house was very clean and had everything we needed for a great break from the city.

Wonderful stay!

My family and I stayed for 2 weeks in June and had a wonderful time. Such an amazing location, just a mile from town and down the road from wonderful hikes and farm stands. The house is clean and comfortable and there was so many nice sweet spots to curl up with a book. My husband worked in the beautiful study every day and the kids swam in the pool endlessly. I loved the kitchen and it’s cozy eating nook. Whenever we had a question Hilary was very responsive and thoughtful. We loved this happy home and hope to return.
