Amazing hotel and better than any chain hotels. Close to all the biking trails and downtown! They had bikes on site so we were able to ride 20 miles when we were there. Lakely restaurant was also amazing - great food, drinks, and live music!

The entire hotel has a wonderful warm and friendly vibe. I felt like I was old friends with all of the staff members. They were very helpful prepping their tandem bicycle for my wife me to take a long ride. We had a blast at The Oxbow and will happily stay there again on our next visit to Eau Claire.
