At the mouth of Noroton River in Connecticut, Holly Pond forms the border between Stamford and Darien on Long Island Sound. This picturesque, 200-acre coastal embayment offers a tranquil escape, where lakefront homes and a vibrant lakeside community create a haven for those seeking the beauty and serenity of waterfront living.
A blend of history and ecology. Shaped by both natural forces and human intervention, Holly Pond boasts a unique story. Originally known as Noroton Bay, the inlet was deep enough for sailing vessels in centuries past. Over time, shifting sediments and the construction of tidal gates transformed the bay into a brackish lake-like environment, creating the setting enjoyed today.
Holly Pond's shores are lined with beautiful homes, many enjoying direct lakefront access and stunning views. Here, residents embrace a lifestyle interwoven with the natural surroundings. Days begin with the call of shorebirds and the gentle lapping of waves. Private docks provide launching points for kayaks, paddleboards, and small boats, inviting peaceful exploration of the inlets and coves.
The Holly Pond area is known for its strong sense of community. Residents share a love for this unique environment and come together to preserve its beauty through stewardship and shared activities. From summer gatherings to organized clean-up efforts, the spirit of neighborliness runs deep within this lakeside enclave.
You can enjoy the beauty of pond life and explore the lake by boat or kayak/canoe. Also, Holly Pond's central location offers easy access to a wealth of coastal amenities. The nearby beaches of Pear Tree Point and Weed Beach provide opportunities for sunbathing, swimming, and scenic strolls.
Explore nature trails in the scenic Selleck's Woods Nature Preserve, or venture to Cove Island Park in Stamford for sprawling waterfront recreation. Darien's charming boutiques and renowned restaurants are just a short drive away, while the dynamic arts scene and shopping destinations of Stamford offer endless possibilities.
