Geography

The village is in northern Caledonia County, in the southern part of the town of Lyndon. It occupies the valley of the South Wheelock Branch, an east-flowing tributary of the Passumpsic River and part of the Connecticut River watershed. U.S. Route 5 (Memorial Drive) passes through the east side of the village, and Interstate 91 forms the CDP's eastern edge. The two highways intersect at I-91's Exit 23 at the northeast corner of the village. US-5 leads north across the Passumpsic River 1 mile (1.6 km) into Lyndonville, the largest village in the town of Lyndon, and south 7 miles (11 km) to St. Johnsbury, while I-91 leads north 35 miles (56 km) to Newport and south past St. Johnsbury 66 miles (106 km) to White River Junction.
