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:
“You have witchcraft in your lips, Kate. There is more
eloquence in a sugar touch of them than in the tongues of
the French council.”

“I counted two and seventy stenches,
All well defined and several stinks!
Ye Nymphs that reign o’er sewers and sinks,
The river Rhine, it is well known,
Doth wash your city of Cologne;
But tell me, Nymphs! what power divine
Shall henceforth wash the river Rhine?”
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
