About The Town
Brighton, Vermont, is a rural town blessed with
beauty in its clear rivers streams, lakes and ponds,
abundant forests, and geological variety.
The Town of Brighton, Vermont, officially established
in 1832, remained a small and isolated community
because of the inaccessibility resulting from the
rugged, harsh environment. That changed in 1853,
when the Atlantic and St. Lawrence Railroad brought
jobs including a U.S. customs office, and a tenfold
population growth, playing a significant role in the
community throughout the two world wars. The
customs office officially moved out of Island Pond in
1973. Today the railroad is still in use, however,
mainly for transportation of freight and perhaps once
a summer, an excursion train passes through.
Today, Brighton is a community of over 1300
residents, the majority of whom live in Island Pond.
Island Pond also has miles of trails on the VAST trail
making it the “snowmobile capital of Vermont”. There
is also fishing, hunting, swimming, hiking, biking,
canoeing, horseback riding, cross-country & downhill
skiing. There is fantastic foliage in the fall months and
a 4th of July fireworks & parade in town every year!
