We spent a raining Friday night at the Brambles Inn in Potsdam. The weather was terrible but our room was toasty warm due to awesome old fashioned radiator heating. Our room with private bathroom was cozy and comfortable with interesting antique furniture. Walk (in the rain) to downtown Main Street only took about 5 minutes. We would highly recommend eating...

This Victorian house has many features to delight the eye: public rooms with beautifully colored walls, framed prints galore of birds and wildlife, authentic Victorian furniture with its color, carved woods, and jarndenieres & plants. It is very convenient to schools in Potsdam and to the small downtown. The welcome was friendly, the breakfasts subtantial -- great coffee, so important!... More

After dropping my daughter at camp (and many trips up & down the stairs), Brambles was a great place to rest and relax. Very conveniently located to SUNY Potsdam and Clarkson. Quiet and comfortable with a great breakfast before I headed off the next morning

We spent one night at the Brambles Inn and Gardens. My husband is a Clarkson alumni and we went to visit his undergrad campus for the first time in many years. Staying at The Brambles Inn was so comfy sort of like staying at Grandma's. The house is decorated in a Victorian style. A great deal of care went into... More

What a great B&B! We stayed here for the first time this weekend after years of staying at the Clarkson Inn for our visits to the North Country. The Brambles is now my first choice. The inn is decorated beautifully, and our room was lovely. Breakfast was excellent and the innkeepers were friendly. It is also a nice walk into... More

This was our second year in a row we got to experience staying at The Brambles Inn & Gardens. Both times our stay was wonderful and our room was terrific. The breakfast was delicious. I have a gluten free diet and both times they were accomodating. I was spoiled. This year I had a peach cobbler. Without a doubt we... More

We stayed one night to visit Clarkson University. My daughter and I stayed in the Thomas Clark Room. It was quite spacious in that room. This room is toward the front of the house, so some road noise is able to be heard. The bed was very comfortable. I enjoyed reading in the living room downstairs. Eleanor brought out a... More

My daughter and I came to The Brambles Inn & Gardens to stay for SUNY Potsdam orientation. I stayed two nights, she one, but both of us felt the same way about The Brambles. From the moment we arrived and rang the bell, our innkeepers were very warm and welcoming. We originally had the Knowles room reserved, but were upgraded... More

We stayed here to visit our daughter at Potsdam University. We were there for 7 nights and loved every minute. The property is so beautifully furnished and maintained in its Victorian era style. The owners were wonderful to us and nothing was too much trouble. The first room we stayed in was lovely with period furnishing and very comfortable bed.... More
