There is not a more relaxing place!
Henry and Claudine were the best hosts I have experienced in all my travels. They bent over backwards to make sure I had a wonderful stay and everything I needed. As far as the pond goes there is only one word that can be used. Magic. Pick this place if you wish to experience what the legendary David Thoreau did!
"What lies behind us and what lies ahead of us are tiny matters compared to what lives within us."
Thank you Claudine and Henry for sharing your space!

Fell for Fall @the pondering pond💞
We had a great time in Claudine's space. The pond was perfect to have coffee & had an awesome setup to enjoy the amazing Fall colors and view. My dog was in heaven chasing chipmunks. The space was kept and you could see they recently fixed anything below their standard. New wood, nice tiles, clean tables.
There was kindling next to the firepit and wood which I appreciated. The toilet was kept and had freshness powder & a heater, both nice attn to detail. The thermostat kept us toasty and comfy, at night, and there were plenty of options of ways to cook, including a cool outdoor wood stove. Coolers were both on the deck and outside the house, and there were paddleboats to use. Alot of little cool touches. Theres also a floatly wood plank we will def be coming back to try. Claudine was consistantly responsive, patient, and left a wagon to make bringing everything to the site easier. She was clear with directions so we had no issue finding the space.
Bring your own soap to wash dishes and bathe, towels to bathe and and swim, anything you need to prep for food and grill, and extra lighters (you never know) 🙂and you've got it all! Happy glamping. Def coming back.

Perfect for Pondering
Pondering at the Pond was wonderful! Claudine is a great host, and the location is beautiful. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to escape the hustle and bustle and take some time in nature.

Exceeded every expectation!
Hosts are charming. Space is clean and cozy. Big comfy chair and smart places to set up & stash stuff. Mornings on White Pond are idyllic. Could not have stayed at a more appropriate place to connect with the Walden philosophy!

Claudine and Henry are wonderful, fascinating, friendly people and a delight to spend time with. You will surely want to pick their brains and can learn a lot from them and hearing their life experiences. If you can arrange the rest of your trip to allow for multiple opportunities to chat with them — definitely do so! Incidentally it is also quite heartening to see a couple who so obviously still love being together with each other; they each have a glint in their eye when looking at the other.
The cabin is a great space and everything about it is very well-thought-out … with attention not only to practicality but also to aesthetics.
The land near the pond, and the pond itself, has a good energy, is very secluded despite other neighbors being on the pond, and is a great place to tune into Nature’s tempo … all while still conveniently a short drive away from Walden, the Thoreau farm, nice coffee shops, etc.
Highly recommended! If you’re going anywhere near Concord, MA, this is the place to stay.
