We were delighted to be upgraded to a king suite in the main building for the first time ever in many years of staying at the Oxbow. The king suite was immaculate and very comfortable - and much more spacious than the king rooms in the side building. Our only regret was that the Lakely closed at 10 p.m. so that we could not use our drink tokens by the time we returned to the hotel.
