Each suite has four private single bedrooms, a living room, a dining area/kitchenette, and a bathroom. The entire building is air conditioned. Each of the eight wings has a large kitchen/lounge area for cooking meals and a laundry area. Other public areas include the lobby, floor lounges, conference rooms, and a recreation/fitness room. There is elevator access to all four floor levels. South Fork Suites has four Resident Assistants and one Hall Manager. The building is close to student parking (O Lot) and near sand volleyball and basketball courts. The South Fork of the Kinnickinnic River runs behind the building. South Fork is connected to Ames Hall through the Lydecker Living Learning Center.

SFS and Ames Hall work together as a Complex to promote student involvement through activities in their halls.

SFS, built in 2004-2005, was named after George R. Field, who was the last President and first Chancellor, serving UWRF from 1968-1985.
