The Burgess Branch is a tributary of the Missisquoi River, crossing the municipalities of Eden (Lamoille County) and Lowell in Orleans County, Vermont, United States.

The lower part of the Burgess Branch is accessible by Valley Road (south-east side of the river); the intermediary part, by Lamphere Road (mainly on south-east side); the upper part is served mainly by Mines Road.

The surface of the Burgess Branch is usually frozen from mid-December to mid-March, except the rapids areas; however, safe circulation on the ice is generally from late December to early March.
