Cedar Pond is a small, roughly 6.5-acre pond near Peters Pond in northeast Dracut, ringed by wetland and home to one of the state's few remaining Atlantic White Cedar stands. It is surrounded by wet ground and is genuinely hard to reach except in winter, when the ground freezes enough to walk or snowmobile in.
