The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) today announced a water disruption at Sugar Hill Recreation Area, 3360 Tower Hill Road, Watkins Glen, Schuyler County. 

Water at the Sugar Hill Recreation Area will be unavailable until an underground leak within the infrastructure can be fixed. Repair work will limit the availability of some camp sites and early season campers and day users are asked to prepare accordingly. DEC provided American with Disabilities Act-accessible portable restrooms at the site. Sugar Hill Recreation Area opens to the public on May 19, 2025.  

DEC will notify the public when full services are restored. For additional information or to find an alternate site to recreate, visit DEC's website.
