Vacation
The house was clean and the beds were comfortable. We loved the location. Renting a golf cart was the best way to get around.

Northern pond great pet friendly site
We had a great stay and the few issues we had were addressed quickly. Thank you for a great week of good food, beaches, awesome weather & ice cream for my grandson. Grandson didn't want to leave and asked me next year to rent a house on the sound with a dock so he can fish all day everyday.

We had one of the best family vacations we've ever had! Northern Pond was the perfect size for our family of 3 plus our pet. I especially enjoyed the quiet location of Northern Pond. And yet we were able to get to restaurants and shops by bike, easily.
