The B. C. Wandell House, also known as The Cedars, is located at 214, 223, and 224 West Saddle River Road in the borough of Saddle River in Bergen County, New Jersey, United States. The historic house was built from 1865 to 1868 and was added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 29, 1986, for its significance in architecture.[1][3] It was listed as part of the Saddle River Multiple Property Submission (MPS).[4]

The house was built by Judge Benjamin Coe Wandell and features Second Empire architecture, such as the use of a mansard roof. The listing includes a large barn and a gazebo by the riverside. From 1919 to 1941, the property was used as a YWCA camp, called Shadyside Camp.[3]
