Inn Details
Experience the past in our circa 1842 Greek Revival home that has been lovingly restored. All guest rooms feature private bath, cable TV, air conditioning and high speed internet access. Come join us in historic Potsdam, NY nestled in the Adirondack foothills of picturesque St. Lawrence County. Located downtown, the Inn is within walking distance of Clarkson University, the State University of New York (SUNY) at Potsdam and the Crane School of Music. We're also a 10 minute drive to the neighboring town of Canton, NY which is home to St. Lawrence University and SUNY Canton. Just a short drive to Adirondack State Park and many local attractions. Plan a day-trip to nearby Ottawa or Montreal Canada. From the old-fashioned country breakfast to the top-notch service, you'll be glad you made the Brambles Inn your home away from home.

We recently joined long time friends for a reunion and chose the Brambles. it was a perfect place for a gathering. The hosts were most gracious, the food was wonderful, the unobtrusive thoughtfulness in providing things we needed as a group (wine glasses in the evening, for example) was appreciated. It is a comfortable place to stay. We stayed four nights.
Memorable B&B stay

A friend and I stayed a night while we took our final exams at Crane. We loved our stay and the service was impeccable. Everything was clean and tidy and we felt right at home. My air conditioner was loud but other than that everything was great! Very accommodating for meals as I have a gluten-free diet. Highly recommend the Brambles Inn!
WONDERFUL STAY!!!

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 to the suite. Very spacious accommodations, serene, clean, with beautiful country inn touches all around. The included country breakfast was marvelous. I highly recommend staying here!
Thorough attention to detail made for a delightful stay.

I stayed for 3 nights while on business at SUNY and was delighted with the environment and low key, but gracious hospitality in every aspect of my stay. The breakfasts were superb and huge! I have never stayed at a B & B where I felt so comfortable and my needs were individually met. I usually avoid B & B's because of the lack of privacy compared to a hotel, but this was not the case at the Brambles. I will definitely return when in the area.
