10->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ScottMcCord
11
12The protagonist. A reckless and enthusiastic 12-year-old thrill-seeker who views Camp Lakebottom as a place of fun and adventure.
13----
14* AnimeHair: His hair seems naturally spiky.
15* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: [=McGee=]'s [[ThePrankster prankster]] traits probably made him an example to Suzi, but he's otherwise always ready to stick up for, and help his older sister. [[UngratefulBitch She rarely reciprocates]].
16* BerserkButton: Don't call Camp Lakebottom lame and don't mess with his friends or the counselors.
17* ButtMonkey: Things tend to not go his way quite often, although he usually manages to come out in once piece by the end.
18* {{Determinator}}: He doesn't give up easily.
19* DidntThinkThisThrough: A RunningGag on the show (and practically his CatchPhrase) is the fact that he tends to not think things entirely through with his plans.
20* FreakyIsCool: Once the initial confusion is cleared up, [=McGee=] quickly takes to Camp Lakebottom.
21* GuileHero: In general, he's usually the one who comes up with the plan, even if they don't always work out the way he intends.
22* HotBlooded: His eager but somewhat impulsive attitude makes him fun-loving and adventurous.
23* JerkassBall: His mischief and disobedience can make him fall into this.
24* {{Keet}}: He's an incredibly energetic and excitable young lad with a love for fun and adventure.
25* TheLeader: Between him, Gretchen, and Squirt, he is the one who drags them onto whatever adventure they're up to and comes up with the plans that get them out of sticky situations (or get them into said situations).
26* LikeBrotherAndSister: He gets along much better with Gretchen than he does with his actual sister Suzi.
27* NiceGuy: He's a very kind, laid-back, helpful, friendly (and if not a bit insensitive, mischievous, disobedient and selfish) bottom-dweller to have around.
28* ThePrankster: He loves making mischief, especially when the targets of his practical jokes are Camp Sunnysmiles.
29* VomitDiscretionShot: He vomits after the spider was sucking up a fly
30* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: He ''really'' hates spiders.
31
32!!Gretchen
33[[quoteright:245:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/camp_lakebottom_gretchen_4581.jpg]]
34->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MelissaAltro
35
36One of [=McGee=]'s two best friends. A sardonic girl who is more than capable on taking the various horrors Camp Lakebottom has to offer.
37----
38* ActionGirl: She's trained in martial arts and often puts her skills to use fighting monsters and other freaky things.
39* AffectionateNickname: [=McGee=] and Squirt sometimes call her "Gretch".
40* AlliterativeName: In "Meet the Gretch's Parents", her surname is revealed to be [[spoiler:Grietchelson]].
41* AloofDarkHairedGirl: She has black hair and is noted for her snarky, aloof personality.
42* CantCatchUp: Ever since Gretchen lost to Suzi in the Miss Sunnysmile paegent, she has dedicated her whole life in order to prove that she can match up Suzi. However many of her attempts to compete with Suzi only further prove her inferiority. Suzi is prettier, smarter, and more popular than Gretchen,and thus [[UnknownRival she hardly acknowledges Gretchen's existence and only sees her as an utter annoyance]]. To add insult to injury, [[HumiliationConga Suzi takes any opportunity to ridicule and humiliate Gretchen and lets her know who is better]].
43* CatchPhrase: "Ya think?"
44* CuteBruiser: A 12-year-old PerkyGoth with martial arts training that allows her to kick monster butt.
45* DeadpanSnarker: She has a sharp tongue, especially when it comes to [=McGee=]'s dafter plans
46* ExpressiveHair: Her pigtails sometimes stick up straight when she's scared.
47* GirlishPigtails: She wears her hair as two large pigtails.
48* IKnowKungFu: Her martial arts training gets brought up quite often and frequently helps her contribute to the plot of an episode.
49* TheLancer: As the more grounded and sensible of [=McGee=]'s two friends, she often plays the role as his Number Two.
50* LikeBrotherAndSister: She has a sisterly sort of relationship with [=McGee=].
51* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: Her sardonic personality makes her the Masculine Girl to the soft-hearted Squirt's Feminine Boy.
52* OnlySaneMan: Is generally more level-headed than the other campers.
53* PerkyGoth: While she's snarky, she generally has an upbeat attitude.
54* TallDarkAndSnarky: She's the tallest of the three main kids, with black hair and a snarky attitude.
55* TomboyWithAGirlyStreak: She's the Tomboy to Suzi's Girly Girl, but she's also competed in the Miss Sunnysmile pageant (though she apparently will deny being upset about coming in second place to Suzi if asked).
56* UnknownRival: This one's been a bit exaggerated. She has a one-sided rivalry with Suzi and always tries to match up to her. Suzi, one the other hand, only sees Gretchen as every other girl who's ever tried to compete with Suzi.
57* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: She's terrified of chipmunks and thinks they're evil. [[spoiler: [[ProperlyParanoid Turns out she's entirely justified]].]]
58
59!!Squirt
60[[quoteright:245:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/camp_lakebottom_squirt_7917.jpg]]
61->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/DarrenFrost
62
63The other best friend of [=McGee=]. A chubby and naive but cheerful boy who can't help but show kindness to all living things.
64----
65* {{Acrofatic}}: Despite his rotund appearance, he can be quite nimble when the situation calls for it.
66* TheBeastmaster: He's ''very'' good with animals, being able to befriend and communicate with nearly every wild animal the kids encounter.
67* BigFun: He isn't slim, but he is a cheerful and kindhearted boy.
68* CatchPhrase: "Stop that! You're scaring it," usually when someone is threatening an animal.
69* CloudCuckoolander: He can be rather... unusual sometimes.
70* CompanionCube: His underpants, who he calls "Gitchie." (Gitch is a Canadian euphemism for underwear.)
71* FatBestFriend: He's [=McGee=]'s plump but good-natured buddy.
72* FriendToAllLivingThings: At one point, he stopped [=McGee=] from using worms as bait, calling them his friends.
73* FriendToBugs: He even makes friends with flies and spiders.
74* {{Gasshole}}: Prone to pulling off some very massive and powerful farts.
75* GeniusDitz: Although naive, he's very knowledgeable about animals, correcting identifying Armand as a Sasquatch and knowing the difference between a rooster and a chicken.
76* GentleGiant: The largest of the trio as well as the nicest.
77* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: His gentle but naive personality makes him the Feminine Boy to the aloof and sardonic Gretchen's Masculine Girl.
78* NightmareFetishist: His FriendToAllLivingThings status extends even to monstrous creatures like giant spiders and the tentacled monster living in the lake.
79* ThePollyanna: He always looks on the bright side of life.
80
81!!Sawyer
82[[quoteright:245:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/camp_lakebottom_sawyer_5224.jpg]]
83->'''Voiced by:''' Cliff Saunders
84
85One of the counsellors at Camp Lakebottom. A zombie with a multipurpose tool on his left hand and actually quite a friendly guy - even if his body keeps falling apart.
86----
87* FriendlyZombie: Sawyer is an all round NiceGuy who plays with the kids. While he does snack on brains, which he keeps refrigerated in a fridge, he makes it a strict rule to never harm the campers. His mother on the other hand is a stereotypical brain eating zombie who wants to make her son follow in her path.
88* HandyMan: He serves this role around Camp Lakebottom. His SwissArmyAppendage proves useful in that regard.
89* IntergenerationalFriendship: With the campers, whom he serves as a sort of father figure to.
90* MeaningfulName: Sawyer is frequently equipped with a '''saw''' on his left hand.
91* NiceGuy: He's about the furthest you can get from your stereotypical mindless, ravenous, zombie in terms of personality.
92* OurZombiesAreDifferent: A FriendlyZombie who eats refrigerated brains and acts as the HandyMan.
93* PapaWolf: Don't mess with his campers.
94* SwissArmyAppendage: His left arm is usually substituted with a chainsaw, but it can be swapped out for things like fishing rods, toilet plungers, and nets.
95* TagalongKid: Adult version. Sawyer is usually the one who accompanies the campers on their escapades.
96
97!!Rosebud
98[[quoteright:245:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/camp_lakebottom_rosebud_452.jpg]]
99->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JonathanWilson
100
101Another of Camp Lakebottom's counsellors. A short, stout, and surly old woman with a German accent who cooks up Camp Lakebottom's disgusting meals.
102----
103* ActionGirl: She's quite capable in a fight.
104* AmbiguouslyHuman: She certainly looks human, but with the other counselors being a zombie and a Sasquatch, some people wonder...
105* ApronMatron: She's tough-as-nails and looks after the campers like they were her own children.
106* BrawnHilda: Especially in flashbacks to when she was young. She even sported pigtails and a horned helmet.
107* CampCook: She makes the revolting meals that the kids and counsellors eat.
108* CrossDressingVoices: She's voiced by a guy.
109* FunnyForeigner: We only know that she's from a town called Freizuncoold in [[{{Ruritania}} the old country]].
110* LethalChef: The ''theme song of the show'' even lampshades it! The fact that she uses some nasty ingredients doesn't really help. Sawyer and Squirt seem to like her subatomic chilli poppers though.
111* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: Her tough and surly attitude makes her the Masculine Girl to the sensitive and sophisticated Armand's Feminine Boy.
112* TheNapoleon: Don't let her diminutive size fool you, Rosebud is not to be messed with.
113* PintsizedPowerhouse: She's able to carry Armand with ease, even though he's easily three times as big as her.
114* RetiredBadass: She used to be the deadliest monster hunter alive, but after she captured a young Armand and Sawyer and prepared to send them to a PrisonDimension, Sawyer's stomach started growling, so she offered to make the two of them a snack before chucking them through the portal. She enjoyed cooking for them so much that she spared them and became their full-time chef.
115
116!!Armand
117[[quoteright:245:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/camp_lakebottom_armand_9496.jpg]]
118->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AdrianTruss
119
120The last of Camp Lakebottom's counsellors. A sensitive and sophisticated sasquatch with a passion for the performing arts and fashion.
121----
122* BigfootSasquatchAndYeti: He's a large brown-furred Bigfoot.
123* CampStraight: His interests include typically feminine fare like art and fashion, but he has shown interest in women sometimes.
124* CuteLittleFangs: Has tiny fangs visible from his jaw even when his mouth is closed that surprisingly add to his soft personality.
125* GentleGiant: He's rather CampStraight, for a sasquatch.
126* HalfDressedCartoonAnimal: He's only shown wearing shorts and a scarf.
127* LargeHam: Being an enthusiast for the fine arts, especially theater and cinema, he's very dramatic.
128* LivingADoubleLife: He's also a secret agent of the TuxedoAndMartini variety.
129* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: His campy interests and sensitive personality make him the Feminine Boy to the surly Rosebud's Masculine Girl.
130* RealMenWearPink: He wears ''purple shorts'' and a ''pink scarf''.
131
132!!Suzi
133[[quoteright:245:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/camp_lakebottom_suzi_1024.jpg]]
134->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/BrynMcAuley
135
136[=McGee=]'s older sister and a former pageant queen. She is a vain and spoiled girl who attends Camp Lakebottom's rival, Camp Sunnysmiles.
137----
138* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: She has a crush on the obnoxious and arrogant Buttsquat.
139* AloofBigSister: To [=McGee=], whom she generally showed very little compassion or sympathy towards.
140* AlphaBitch: A summer camp version. She's vain, spoiled, bossy, always wants to be the center of attention, and hangs out with all the rich, popular kids at Camp Sunnysmiles.
141* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: To Gretchen since she won the Miss Sunnysmile pageant while Gretchen was runner up.
142* ArchEnemy: To Gretchen. Suzi beat her at the Miss Sunnysmile pageant and will never let her live it down.
143* AttentionWhore: Suzi must always be the best most prolific person in the area, even if it means letting her little brother get hurt to stay at the top. Or say cursing an entire play and calling upon dark curses that leave her a lightning shooting, wild-haired monster.
144* BeautyContest: Competed in a few of these prior to the series.
145* BeautyIsBad: When it comes to high school beauties, Suzi is unparalleled, and does a lot more than simply set the standard for what it means to be pretty. However, she doesn't have the personality to back it up. Suzi knows she's beautiful, and she's going to make that fact darn well clear to everyone else.
146* BerserkButton: Suzi is perpetually annoyed at just about everything she comes across and has little to no tolerance for anything. Any unfortunate soul that manages to annoy her just enough is going to have to [[PintSizedPowerhouse deal with an entire gallon of whoopass]], courtesy of the terrifying Suzi. After all,in "Stage Fright", she's given [[HulkingOut more than enough reason]] why messing with her is a bad idea. In short... NEVER. EVER. CROSS. SUZI.
147* BigSisterBully: She's a bit mean-spirited to her brother.
148* DreadfulMusician: She's a horrible singer, although completely unaware of this.
149* HumiliationConga: Inverted. Even though Suzi only sees Gretchen as an utter annoyance, [[UnknownRival rather than an actual rival]], she finds it rather arrogant whenever Gretchen has the nerve to try and compete with her. So in order to teach Gretchen a lesson (as well as for her own amusement), Suzi often humiliates and ridicules her in some of the most extreme ways possible.
150* InsufferableGenius: Suzi has, an always will be, a constant source of jealousy for many girls, especially Gretchen. Suzi knows this and takes every opportunity possible in letting everyone see just how much better she is. With unrivaled intelligence, beauty, popularity, talent, etc., it's no wonder why people want to be her. She enjoys seeing the hopeless reactions of those wish they could be like her but can't, especially Gretchen.
151* {{Jerkass}}: She's an all-around mean and selfish AlphaBitch type, although she does have more sympathetic moments compared to Buttsquat.
152* LovableAlphaBitch: Despite her cynical and sadistic personality, Suzi is surprisingly popular among her peers. Although, considering that everyone else in Camp Sunny Smiles is almost as cynical as her, it probably isn't all that surprising. Aside from that, Suzi is still incredibly likable, even to her little brother, who she constantly abuses on a regular basis.
153* MoralMyopia: In "Head Two Head," she claimed that she's "always nice," ignoring her antagonistic personality.
154* NeverMyFault: In one episode, Suzi and Buttsquat have jet skis. Suzi invites her brother to join her only to close a glass door on him every time he tries to accept her invitation. She blames him when the mechanism that opens and closes the door breaks.
155* PinkMeansFeminine: She's a classic rich and popular AlphaBitch who wears a lot of pink in most of her outfits.
156* {{Pride}}: Considering Suzi's position, she is naturally confident in her abilities and pretty much sees herself as royalty.
157* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Her AlphaBitch personality makes her the Girly Girl to the PerkyGoth Gretchen's Tomboy.
158* UngratefulBitch: No matter how many times [=McGee=] saves or helps her, she shows him zero gratitude.
159* ValleyGirl: Frequently speaks like one.
160
161!!Jordan Buttsquat
162[[quoteright:245:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/camp_lakebottom_buttsquat_7546.jpg]]
163->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/CarterHayden
164
165The archrival of [=McGee=] and his friends, as well as Suzi's crush. He is the smug and spoiled son of the owner of Camp Sunnysmiles.
166----
167* AlphaBitch: Male version. The most popular guy in Sunny Smiles and definitely not nice.
168* ArchEnemy: To [=McGee=]. Their rivalry is the driving force of many episodes' conflicts.
169* AttentionWhore: He's always seeking to be the center of attention in some way.
170* TheCaligula: Being the son of the owner of Camp Sunnysmiles means that he pretty much runs the show and there's no stopping his tyranny. He even went as far as to ban gum from the camp.
171* CatchPhrase: "I will have revenge!"
172* CycleOfRevenge: He seeks revenge on [=McGee=] and the others for past defeats. This just leads to him being defeated again, and swearing ''more'' revenge.
173* DirtyCoward: Prone to fleeing and abandoning anyone else he's with at the first sign of a monster.
174* EvilRedhead: Has red hair and is not a nice guy.
175* FieryRedhead: He can be loud when he needs to, and ''again'', is red-haired.
176* TheGadfly: He takes great pleasure in tormenting [=McGee=] and his friends.
177* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: He is a ''very'' unpleasant child and he very few times he does seem to show some degree of sympathy or redemption is usually quickly subverted afterwards.
178* KarmicButtMonkey: No pun intended. He often gets roughed up as much as [=McGee=] due to karma.
179* LastNameBasis: Rarely is he referred to as Jordan. Might be justified with the fact that his enemies would prefer calling him by his questionable surname. Plus, for whatever reason, he seems to prefer calling ''himself'' by his surname as well.
180* MilesGloriosus: He regularly acts like he's braver and more capable than he really is.
181* RichBitch: His parents own Camp Sunnysides, and their money enables him to afford all kinds of expensive things.
182* TheRichWantToBeRicher: His parents are rich enough to give him yachts (out of ''packs of ten''), yet Buttsquat often tries to [[{{Pun}} butt in]] on the Bottomdwellers' treasure hunts, and take the treasure for himself.
183* SitcomArchnemesis: To [=McGee=]. He's not so much evil as he is mean and annoying.
184* SpoiledBrat: He's the phenomenally wealthy son of the owner of Camp Sunnysmiles, as well as a smug and whiny little jerk.
185* UnfortunateNames: Yes, '''Butt'''squat actually is his surname. And yes, he's been ridiculed for it by the others.
186* UngratefulBastard: Has antagonized [=McGee=] right after [=McGee=] ''saved his life''.
