Eden was chartered to a group of Green Mountain Boys officers and troops and heirs of men killed in the Revolution. The list of 72 names reads like a veritable “Who’s Who of Vermont”, virtually all of the men who figured in the conduct of the revolt itself or in the establishment of the Republic.

The town was chartered to the veterans in the hopes that it would be a post-war “Eden” to them; however, as far as can be determined, none of the them ever settled there. It was not at all topographically suited to live up to its Biblical name. Rough and mountainous (several peaks over 2,000 feet), with numerous lakes and rivers, and not settled until after 1800.

Lake Eden offers summer camping.

Utilities

Notes about utilities:

  • One electric or phone company indicates that company serves the entire town. More than one of either indicates each serves different areas of town.
  • A listed cable company MIGHT mean the entire town is covered, but not necessarily. More than one listed indicates each serves different areas of town.
  • Unless your area is one served by Vermont’s only gas utility, your only option is bottled gas (any dealer).
