Wheelock, Vermont, is a small, rural community in Caledonia County known for its scenic beauty and outdoor activities. With a population of around 760, Wheelock offers a tranquil lifestyle without the hustle of urban life, as evidenced by its lack of stoplights and reliance on nearby towns for grocery shopping. The area is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, situated near Burke Mountain and the Kingdom Trails, which attract skiers and mountain bikers from around the world. The Kingdom Trails, a 100-mile bike path, weaves through Wheelock, while Burke Mountain Resort, 15 miles east, features over 50 ski trails. Homes in Wheelock are typically single-story cottages and ranch-style houses along dirt roads, with prices generally more affordable than the state median. The community experiences all four seasons, with vibrant springs and snowy winters. While Wheelock lacks a large commercial presence, Chandler Pond Farm offers local produce and seasonal goods. For more extensive shopping and dining, residents travel to nearby Lyndon or St. Johnsbury. Education options include the Vermont Town Tuitioning Program, allowing students to attend various schools, and a unique opportunity for residents to attend Dartmouth College tuition-free if admitted. Wheelock's remote location means residents rely on cars, with U.S. Interstate 91 providing north-south access through New England, and the nearest major airport, Patrick Leahy Burlington International, is over 80 miles away.
