“The Oxbow's location offers charming walkable shops and good nearby restaurants.”view full review

The Oxbow Hotel is a 3-star boutique pet-friendly property in downtown Eau Claire's bullseye center, comprising two distinct buildings - The Main House and The Flats - connected by an actively programmed courtyard with fire pits.

Urban Lodge Accommodations

Regional Food and Drinks

The Lakely restaurant serves Midwest comfort food featuring regional ingredients like freshwater fish, wild rice, and farm-raised meats. An expert cocktail team crafts original drinks using Midwest spirits and seasonal local ingredients.

Entertainment and Activities

Property features include complimentary bikes, a designated Kubb pitch, and a courtyard with two cut-stone fire pits. The Lakely hosts regular live jazz performances, Open Mic Nights, and Trivia Nights.

Central Downtown Location

Located where downtown Eau Claire began, The Oxbow positions guests within walking distance to the city's best restaurants, theaters, and shops. The Chippewa Valley Regional Airport is 6 miles away.

Unique Vinyl Experience

“I loved the record player in my room! Each room has one, and you can check out up to three vinyl records from the lobby. I enjoyed playing classic albums while relaxing after a long day, and they even had a Dermot Kennedy album, a good surprise!” view full review

Charming and Comfortable Space

“The renovation of this hotel has given it a retro-modern charm that I absolutely adored. My room was not only clean and well-maintained, but the cozy bed made for a great night's sleep. I appreciated the boutique-like toiletries and the interesting decor that reflected the local heritage.” view full review

Great Dining Experience

“Dining at The Lakely, the onsite restaurant, was a highlight of my stay. The pub-style menu, showcasing local ingredients, came through with delicious options, and I enjoyed unwinding by the fire after dinner. Plus, the live jazz music added a vibrant atmosphere to my evening.” view full review

Fun for Active Guests
