About this property

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Beth's Place II - On The River - Hot Tub & New Pickleball Court! You'll love it!

Beth’s Place II (new March 2020) It’s beautifully appointed, completely private, and located on the second floor above the garage of our home.

It features a bedroom with a comfy queen-sized bed with a river view, TV, and closet storage. A spacious living room with a sleeper twin sofa, a pull-down full-size Murphy bed, TV, two swivel chairs, and an electric fireplace with a great light show. A well-equipped kitchen with everything you need to prepare a meal, including a full-size stove, dishes, and a dining area. A lovely full bath with a washer and dryer, towels, wash clothes, and your basic toiletries, a private entrance with 14 steps to the door, and ample parking.

Guest can enjoy their private apartment with its private entrance all to themselves.

We know you will love the private outside space with a hot tub, chairs, fire pit, grill, and beautiful lights at night.

Our property is pretty nice too! We have a putting green and a brand new pickleball court in the front yard and the Raquette river out back. The trail down to the river has handrails where it can be a bit steep. We also have kayaks and fire pit down by the river for guests to enjoy along with a private beach. Our stretch of the Raquette River is swimmable (we do recommend water shoes) and goes all the way to downtown Potsdam. You can park your kayak and enjoy all that Potsdam has to offer, and when you're finished, you can kayak downstream back home. Kayaking is available May through November and we cover the putting green once it snows.

Please note that the igloo is shared with our other unit on the property, Beth's Place.

Like I mentioned, we have another bed and breakfast on our property if you are looking for different dates or to accommodate more people. It's called Beth's Place.

During your stay at this apartment building, you're just a quick walk from Raquette River. Features include 1 hot tub. The apartment includes amenities such as free WiFi and a kitchen.

Incredible property with so much to offer

This property looks exactly as stated in the descriptions, as well as in the photos. The space is well thought out and amazing. We came in to visit our son who goes to SUNY Potsdam. We had a relaxing time and enjoyed many of the outdoor amenities. We invited his friends over to enjoy a home-cooked meal, to play some pickleball, and to make smores! A well-deserved break from campus life. THANK YOU, Beth and Jim.

Phenomenal stay

Can’t brag enough about this amazing property! Clean, homey, very well managed and very thoughtful in all details! We did not take advantage of pickleball or kayaking but did putt on green and prepped a fire but rain hindered that. Extremely well stocked and 4 nights didn’t seem long enough. Great to have space for our student to visit and to prep food,as local eateries can close early. Will definitely stay again or visit another “Beth’s” property in town!

They do it well

My wife and I had a very nice stay there in Potsdam. Didnt move my car once, biked and kayaked everywhere we went.The property is so well kept and provides all you need in fun, a selection of boats and kayaks and the hot tub and firepit area very private. The rental is so well equipped and clean. You get your moneys worth here at Beths place 2.

Perfect Location with Great Accommodations

Our stay at this VRBO property was fantastic! The location couldn't have been better – it provided easy access to both the stunning Thousand Islands and the breathtaking Adirondacks. Whether we wanted to explore scenic trails, enjoy water activities, or simply relax, everything was conveniently close. The accommodations were superb, offering all the comforts of home. The property was clean, well-maintained, and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was fully equipped, making meal preparation a breeze. The living spaces were cozy and inviting. If we didn't want to go far, the outside area and river were perfect for a day of fun. The host was incredibly helpful and responsive, making our stay even more enjoyable. We appreciated the thoughtful touches and the detailed information provided about the area, which helped us make the most of our trip. We highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a memorable getaway with the perfect balance of comfort and convenience. We can't wait to return!

Absolutely amazing! Our favorite place to stay!

We flew in two years ago for our niece’s wedding and stayed at Beth’s Place. We absolutely loved the property and it looks exactly like the pictures. As soon as we started planning another trip for our nephew’s graduation we didn’t even bother looking anywhere else and rebooked. It was another 10 out of 10 experience. The apartment was spotless and it is the perfect size. They have so many nice touches like terry cloth robes, beach towels, shampoo & conditioner, Tide pens, the list goes on. Even toothpaste and floss picks! The Murphy bed is perfect for our daughter and very easy to pull down. The price is more than reasonable and well worth it. The owners are so friendly and respond to messages very quickly. My only regret is that we couldn’t stay in town longer to enjoy all the lovely amenities (hot tub, etc.)! We will absolutely rebook with them the next time we fly home for a visit.

Wish I would have found this sooner

This place is absolutely perfect for any visit to Clarkson! So clean and comfortable and only four minutes away from campus. Wish I would have found this on our first visit. It is close, yet so relaxing by the river with so many things to do to relax. Beth, the host, is very kind and helpful for absolutely anything you may need. Definitely recommend to any first year parents for a perfect place to stay throughout your childs college events throughout the years!

Perfect get away

Beth's place is exactly what is advertised. A great modern, clean home with all the amenities. Because of the rain we weren't able to get out on the water because of flooding, but having the firepit, igloo and hot tub we didn't even miss it. We will definitely be back again!

The place was very clean. Seems to have been done or remodelled recently, as everything seems new. Quiet place, stayed for a week. Well equipped kitchen with some spices and cooking supplies. Very close to Clarkson. Price Chopper or Walmart/Aldi are close.

Weekend Getaway

This property was awesome! The apartment was spotless when we arrived. There is a really nice view of the river. The walkway to get to the small beach area is a little steep but there is a railing along the way that helps a lot. Our fire pit/hot tub area was very private and perfectly cozy. We stayed here at the same time as other guests but we wouldn’t have even known they were there. The igloo is so cool, really nice to read a book and enjoy the outside. The bathroom was stocked with everything you could need and the bed was very comfortable. Less than a 5 minute drive to restaurants/grocery stores. We will be back here for sure!

Paradise on Raquette River

Stayed at Beth’s Place II for the weekend. Perfect location for any of the colleges and is just far enough away on the river to enjoy peace and quiet. Beth kept in touch each day and was always ready to answer questions. Kayaking is a must, some rocky areas and a little bit of current but manageable. The place was perfect for the 3 of us with my son loving the Murphy bed. All the amenities you could ask for and more. I will definitely recommend to all! Thank you Beth and Jim!

Awesome Expereince at Beth's Place II

My family of 4 (11 and 13 year old boys) had a wonderful long weekend at Beth's Place II. We were searching for a place where we could unwind before heading back to school and this was perfect. We spent a ton of time kayaking on the river, fishing both from the dock and the kayaks (catching many), putting golf balls and relaxing by the fire pit and hot tub. Enough to keep us busy for our entire stay. We even had a bald eagle visit us while fishing one day. The entire place both inside and out was spotless and like new. Even the gas grill was impeccably clean. The beds were all comfortable. Beth and Jim were perfect hosts - friendly and accommodating but not overbearing. We even took Beth up on her offer to show us the ropes of kayaking and navigate the tricky spots of the river near the City of Potsdam. The hill to the water is steep but not terrible - you just want to make sure you bring everything with you and not make any unnecessary trips if you can help it.
