Fabulous time
We had a fabulous time enjoying the back yard and home to see the full eclipse as well as play board games and cook meals together. The place was clean, and had everything we needed and then some!

Enjoyable and relaxing
The property was beautiful and idyllic. We enjoyed hiking on the trails through the forest, playing in the creek and building a fire. The house was comfortable, clean and tidy and had all the amenities that we needed. The front porch provided us with a nice place to unwind and relax. We really enjoyed our stay. Tammy, the hostess, was very responsive and helpful.

Beautiful farmhouse within minutes of canton
This place was a perfect escape for us. We had lost power during a storm and decided to make a vacation of it. Tammie’s house outside of Canton was just as advertised. The distance to Canton, the surrounding activities, the manicured trail all were exactly as described in the listing. There were plenty of toys and games for us and our kids as well. It was a great spot and we really appreciated the hospitality.

Great location for a weekend getaway
My husband and I came to the farmhouse for a weekend filled with winter activities and this was the perfect location. The property was close to snowmobile trails and the host even provided snow shoes of all sizes. In the evenings we found some excellent resturants within a 15 min drive. The property was stocked with everything one might need and even some stuff you might have forgotten. The kitchen is so beautifully remodeled and had everything we needed to make breakfast there. We unfortunately ran into a maintenance issue late on a Saturday night and called the maintenance guy and within 20mins EVERYONE was there to fix it! I could not believe how fast the response time was. We will recommend this property if you are looking for a getaway to relax and enjoy nature! We will definitely be back next winter the snowmobiling was amazing.

Winter Family Reunion
This was the perfect spot to host out of town family to celebrate the Matriarchs 90th birthday. The large dining room table was great for sorting old photographs and for eating Sergis pizza and home made waffles. (Yes the VRBO has a waffle iron in the spacious and well equiped kitchen). Some of the family braved the subzero temperatures to take advantage of the provided snowshoes to explore the trails on the property. Others stayed in warmed by the pellet stove and enjoyed games, puzzles and movies. Highly recommend this VRBO for those seeking some rural solace.

Family Reunion Location
Best things--big old rambling farm house with lots of space, well stocked kitchen for cooking meals together, and a great porch and grill, which sadly we didn't get a chance to use. It is beautiful out there---and quiet. Bathrooms were nice and clean, beds are comfy. The one down side--the mattresses on the pullout sofa and chair are really overdue for replacement. I'm not sure anyone will want to sleep on them. Luckily, we had brought an inflatable mattress with us just in case, so that was fine for us.

Amazing Farm House in the North Country of NY
Loved the property from the moment we turned on the street. The charm and vastness of the property were immediately apparent! The property had plenty of places to explore (trails, creeks) and play (a spacious back yard and fire pit) and if the weather wasn't appropriate for that kind, there were activities insides (games, roku, wifi) to keep you occupied in the freshly remodeled house. We stayed for a week and were never bored. Also, about a 10 minute drive away was Hannawa Falls/Postwood Beach which has lifeguards which is perfect for families looking to have fun and be safe and a few shops for any unexpected needs. Lots of restaurant choices in Canton and Potsdam (Fast Food, sit-down on up) which were about 10-15 minutes away. Canadian border was close, but due to Covid-19 was still closed. Overall, had a great time hear and hope to come back this Fall to check it out in that season.

Country Escape
All was as expected. The new kitchen, laundry, and bath on the first floor are great. Rest of the house hasn't lost the old world farm house charm. Very quiet spot, so all you hear are the owls and crickets at night. Plenty of room to roam outside. Great for visiting family in Canton or Potsdam. Jake's on the Water is a fun local restaurant and isn't far.

Superb on every level
I wish we had more than just a few days here, because this was perfect for our family of four. They have thought of everything, and provided more than enough for our stay. We visited in winter, and we had a fun time exploring the property with the provided snowshoes. The WiFi worked flawlessly, so my wife could work remotely, and the kids could do virtual school with no hiccups. The barbecue grill was handy for vegan burgers and brats for us, and regular ones for the kids. Everything is modern and spotless and works wonderfully. The kids say it was the best place we have stayed yet, and I tend to agree, even though we have paid far more for some of the others.

Relax at the farmhouse
Tammie was quick to answer any of our questions making the process comfortable and easy. We found the farmhouse to be super clean and appreciate how much it added and made our trip under these stressful times so much easier for our family while preparing for and attending our daughter's small wedding in Potsdam. The kitchen is not only beautifully renovated but it is also well equipped and stocked. The downstairs living area, comfy beds, front porch, fire pit and paths through the property were relaxing and worked out well during our stay here. All of us, 4 adults, 3 children under 5, plus our dog felt at home very quickly. The farmhouse was an unexpected extra bonus memory to our special times during the week and wedding! We highly recommend Cedar Ridge Farm for anyone looking for a quiet spot to relax close to the Canton and Potsdam areas!

Great house for visiting the area for Clarkson University’s Family Weekend!
Our family decided to rent this wonderful farmhouse when traveling up to the area to visit our daughter for Family Weekend at Clarkson University. We were able to have her grandparents join us since we had the extra room to spread out. We enjoyed cooking a hearty breakfast for the whole gang (7 in total including our college student) and took advantage of the expansive grounds with great walking paths right on the premises. We also loved seeing the horses on site! We would not hesitate to return to this property if we were traveling back to the area with a larger group! Also, the owner was very responsive to our questions leading up to the trip.

Very welcoming, well-equipped home. Spacious and cheerful with beautiful views of the fields and horses. Comfortable beds, nice linens, plenty of towels. Love the storage nooks and the feel of the farm house. Great porch to enjoy in the evening after little ones are asleep. Could use an additional light in the king bedroom and an outlet on the porch - minor things. It was such a positive experience for our entire family. Would gladly return and recommend.

Wonderful Getaway
Our family stayed at Cedar Ridge Farm for our oldest daughter's graduation from St. Lawrence University. The farm is delightful and sooooo peaceful! It was the perfect location - close enough to easily attend the festivities, but far enough away to be able to retreat from the sometimes hectic pace on campus. Our graduate even came to the farm a couple of times over the weekend to get away from the chaos and emotional time on campus. Tammie was very quick to answer all of our questions and easy to work with with regard to the reservations and rental process. Highly recommend Cedar Ridge Farm for anyone looking for a quiet spot to relax close to Canton and Potsdam!
