About this property

Beth's Place - On the River - W/ Hot Tub, Pickleball Court & Putting Green

Beth's Place- celebrating 12 years in business in 2026 - is a luxurious, self-contained apartment with a separate entrance for maximum privacy. It is spacious, tastefully furnished, and conveniently located within 1 mile of downtown Potsdam. Our guests can also enjoy the scenic Raquette River, with free kayaks available for use. For those seeking extra indulgence, the apartment also features a private hot tub – exclusively for our guests' use!

Welcome to Beth's Place, a private space on the first level of our home. You will find a cozy and comfortable queen-size bed in the bedroom, a spacious living room with a queen-size sleeper sofa, a well-equipped kitchen with an apartment size stove, a medium-sized refrigerator, dishes, silverware, baking dishes, cookie sheets, a dining area, and even a gas grill for outside cooking. Our lovely full bathroom comes with towels, washcloths, and basic toiletries.

The unit has a private entrance and ample parking, and for larger groups, we can accommodate up to six people with the addition of our new bunkroom (finished 2/2026) along with the queen-size sleeper sofa. For your convenience, there is also a washer and dryer in the unit.

Our guests will have access to two private outside sitting areas, one out front facing the new pickleball court and the putting green, and one private space out back with a grill and a private hot tub along with a river view. The hot tub (open year-round) is not shared with anyone else but current guests of the unit. The igloo, outback, is open year-round for guests to enjoy, with string lights, seating, and a heater for the cold months. Please note that the igloo, putting green, pickleball court, beach area, and kayaks are shared with our other unit, Beth's Place II, on the same property as Beth's Place. If you were looking for different dates that Beth's Place isn't available or to accommodate more people, feel free to check out Beth's Place II.

Our property offers an array of amenities, including a new pickleball court (installed 10/2023), a putting green in the front yard, a hiking/ski trail, and the Raquette River out back. The trail down to the river has handrails where it can be a bit steep, along with some stairs and a bridge. We also have kayaks and a fire pit down by the river for guests to enjoy, along with a private beach. Our stretch of the Raquette River goes all the way to downtown Potsdam, where you can park your kayak and explore the town before kayaking back home. Please note that kayaking is usually available from May through November, and the putting green is covered once it snows. Pickleball is weather permitting.

We enjoyed our stay at Beth’s Place. The location was very convenient since we were visiting our son at Clarkson. The apartment was spotless and had everything we needed for our weekend stay. The hot tub was nice but unfortunately we didn’t get to enjoying the rest of the outside amenities because it was cold and rainy. We hope to go back when the weather is nicer!

We had so much fun on the river with our girls! Between pickleball, the hot tub, river, and fire pit there was plenty to keep everyone busy while we enjoyed the property. The rooms were clean, the property was quiet. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Another wonderful stay

Not only is the host , Beth, always super responsive but always provides a pristine and cozy spot for us to stay. I also find that each time I come up ( this might be my 6th stay) she has added some other improvement or decorative touch. I LOVE this apartment and try as best I can to only stay at one of Beth's places if I remember to book early enough :)

We stayed for SLU parents' weekend in 2023 and knew we would be back! We rented it again this fall and were very happy. Everything you could want in a rental and more - the hot tub is a welcome retreat after a busy day. Beth is super responsive but not at all intrusive. Great place!

I stayed here with my 3 young children for a short getaway and we had such a wonderful time. While I was ready to take them to do some exploring in town, they didn't want to leave. We pretty much lived on the cute beach they have on the river. Beth is such a beautiful soul and really made our time so enjoyable. We went on the kayaks, relaxed in the hot tub, had a fire every night, played some golf, and my son's personal favorite, caught about 1000 frogs. The kids are already asking when we can go back!

Enjoyed kayaking on the glassy river. Easy to book and check out. Exceptionally clean and well stocked. Felt much bigger than the pictures show. Wish it could have been longer. Definitely recommend!

Wonderful access to Potsdam, Canton, & Massena,

This was our family’s first exploration of the Potsdam area. Beth’s Place had great access to the four colleges in the area (all of which we visited), the locks at Massena, and a wonderful hike in Colton. So much to see in the area! The weather didn’t cooperate for us to kayak in April, but the views on the river were exquisite, especially from our private hot tub. The hot tub was one of the draws to this property & the perfect temperature was a great ending to our busy days.Beth’s Place is definitely on our list for our next trip to the area.
