Grand Isle

The landscape around Grand Isle is defined by the low, wooded shores of Lake Champlain, which have shaped both the settlement pattern and an economy tied to farming, boating and seasonal travel. This Vermont town occupies part of Grand Isle, one of the Lake Champlain Islands, where open water and long shorelines set the rhythm of daily life. US Route 2 links the island community with the mainland and other islands, while the Grand Isle–Plattsburgh ferry connects Vermont with New York across the lake. The Hyde Log Cabin, built in 1783, is a surviving reminder of the area’s early European settlement. Place Grand Isle within the Lake Champlain Islands by browsing webcams nearby.
