It is a tributary of the Connecticut River, which flows to Long Island Sound. The river flows parallel to and approximately 5 miles (8.0 km) south of the Sugar River.
The Little Sugar River begins on a tableland in the town of Unity, New Hampshire, then drops rapidly to the west, cutting a small gorge past the north end of Perry Mountain, and enters the town of Charlestown. The river reaches the Connecticut just west of the village of North Charlestown.
Famous quotes containing the words sugar and/or river:
“A good neighbour, even in this,
Is fatal sometimes, cuts your morning up
To mince-meat of the very smallest talk,
Then helps to sugar her bohea at night
With your reputation.”

—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
