North Hero is a village on Grand Isle in Lake Champlain. It is the seat of Grand Isle County and lies along Highway 2 near Knight Point State Park.

The 2000 U.S. Census lists North Hero's population at 810.

Originally, North Hero, and the villages of South Hero and Grand Isle were granted to Ethan Allen, Samuel Herrick and 363 other Revolutionary War veterans as a single town known as Two Heroes. In 1798, Two Heroes was divided into North Hero (chartered on October 27, 1779), Middle Hero and South Hero.

A local attraction is the Annual Antique Show & Sale, dating to 1962, always on the third Friday and Saturday in July.
