We loved staying in North Pond with all it's beauty from the sound to the peaceful marshes. Close to town and my children stayed in the house around the corner. We didn't end up bringing the dog, but I appreciated having the freedom to do so if we needed to bring him. Nice clean updated house. Worked very well for the 2 of us. I do love to stay in and cook, so I noticed a few needed item. We couldn't find a cutting board and maybe an oyster shucking knife. otherwise being right on the water with the sound of the sea at night was a dream. Thank you so much. Sally
