Potsdam has some very interesting spots - like a toilet-decorated yard and driveway in town, but they also have some of the best coffee houses and restaurants that we've been to...

It's getting better - definitely noticed more shops and restaurants than last time we visited. Hope the upward trend continues!

Potsdam is a cute town. This trip was quick so not able to venture quite as much this trip.
"The Scottish Inn used to be a run-down and poorly-maintained mom-and-pop motel called The Nomad. The current owners have completely overhauled and modernized the establishment. Now the rooms are up-to-date, clean, attractive, well-furnished and comfortable. This is not a high-end-luxury area. However, for travelers looking for an economical place to stay that is close to practical retail and dining establishments, the Scottish in is an excellent choice. A Walmart store is just one minute up the road to the west. A tasty down-home restaurant called Eben’s Hearth is just a couple minutes away in the other direction. Gas stations, additional practical stores and eateries can be found by driving into Potsdam, crossing the bridge on the left and going north toward the retail strip on outer Market Street. Downtown Potsdam is very small and most of the beautiful historic storefronts are empty. This area would be a perfect spot for an arts festival looking for a location. There is a beautiful park next to the river. This is a college town for students from working-class families. If you’re looking for a friendly, practical, no-nonsense place to stay, eat and shop, you should definitely consider staying at the Scottish Inn and exploring the area."
Beth's Place - On the River - W/ Hot Tub, Pickleball Court & Putting Green
10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful spot on the river with lots of activities on the property and the surrounding area! Did some hiking and kayaking, played pickleball and enjoyed some great food at local restaurants. Wonderful accommodations and very welcoming hosts! Will definitely book another stay here!"
"The updates to the hotel are great. the rooms are above average size which is awesome. I personally love that there are multiple hooks and shelves to hang items. There was a beside table for the second queen bed. It's like the hotel had heard my complaints from over the years and did it all right here. I would recommend this hotel to everyone. My only slight negative is one of the bed sheets were stained and it just kinda grossed me out. but everythign else was amazing."
Beth's Place II - On The River - Hot Tub & New Pickleball Court! You'll love it!
10/10 Excellent
"First of all- kayaks, hot tub, igloo, putting green AND pickleball are all included. The apartment was spacious, clean, had everything we needed and more. We love visiting Potsdam every summer and will definitely book here again next year! "
"Our stay was incredible! I love how off the grid the cabin was. We enjoyed the quiet and we were one with nature. I highly recommend this cabin for lovers of nature!"
"My boyfriend and I stayed in the riverside cabin for a long weekend. it was the perfect place for the two of us. super cozy and fun! We definitely recommend trying out the kayaks, fire pit, and screened in porch out while you are here. But don't forget bug spray... We would definitely visit again! Highly recommend this property"
"The treehouse was very cozy and cooled down very well at night. They have great trails and kayaks to use which the dog loved. The hosts were communicative and gracious. They gave us some fresh strawberries from their garden as well. We hope to get back in the not too distant future. "
