Many of the native grasses hold up well with the exception of Big Bluestem which detaches a little too easily for my liking during the winter. The natives also have the advantage of not dying in the middle and being much easier to cut back in the spring.

Little Blustem (as long as soil is not wet)
Prairie Dropseed (no wet soil)
Switch Grass (will tolerate more moisture)
Indian Grass (will tolerate more moisture)

Since it's by a pond you could check out some of the native sedges like:

Carex Grayii
C. bicknelli
C. stricta
C. vulpinoides

And more...(JF New in Indiana sells several dozen native varieties of sedges that you can purchase plus the grasses)

They will take more moisture and they have a beautiful grass like texture.
