You're right, not as "middle of nowhere". Burlington is 2 hours from Montreal and 3.5 hours from Boston, and you can get just about anything you could desire here despite the small population. There's also an international airport.
Eastern Vermont is very scarcely populated, most towns are only a few thousand people and have a very isolated feel (3-4 family names in total and the streets are named after them), but you're never more than 1.5-2 hours from Burlington or Boston due to the state's small size. I live half an hour north of the city now in a town with around 10k people - property values are around half here what they would be in town and I have a lot more land.
