Green River Reservoir State Park, Vermont state park in Hyde Park, US.
Green River Reservoir State Park extends across 5,500 acres of natural landscape, featuring a 653-acre reservoir with 19 miles of undeveloped shoreline.
The Vermont Department of Forests acquired this 5,503-acre land from Morrisville Water and Light Department, establishing it as a state park in March 1999.
The park maintains strict environmental protection measures, permitting only electric motors under 5 mph and human-powered watercraft to preserve the natural setting.
Twenty-eight remote campsites distributed around the reservoir require a boat journey of 1 to 2 miles from the launch site for access.
The park contains the largest deer wintering area in Lamoille County and hosts successful Common loon nesting sites along its protected waters.

Vermont contains remote locations of historical importance that often lie away from major routes. The region encompasses active and abandoned granite quarries, one-room schoolhouses dating from the 19th century, wooden covered bridges, and waterfalls flowing through forested gorges. Trails cross the Green Mountains, leading to mountain lakes, abandoned settlements, and farms that have operated for generations. Historic sites include President Calvin Coolidge's birthplace in Plymouth Notch, preserved as a museum village, and Naulakha, Rudyard Kipling's former residence in Dummerston. Several state parks provide views over the Champlain Valley and Lake Champlain. The marble exhibits in Proctor document the region's quarrying history. These locations offer insight into Vermont's industrial past, literary heritage, and rural traditions.
