Cancelation Policy

Ox-Bow’s cabin and studio rentals are a special program to help us sustain our operations through COVID-19 and the reduction of on-campus classes. We appreciate that it is difficult to make plans under these uncertain conditions; however, in order to keep our facilities available for rental, we uphold a strict cancelation policy.

For a full refund of the nightly rate, the guest must cancel 14 full days prior to local arrival time.

For a 50% refund of the nightly rate, the guest must cancel 7 full days prior to local arrival time.

If the guest cancels less than 7 days in advance or decides to leave early after check-in, the nights not spent are nonrefundable.

In order to mitigate risks of the spread of COVID, we ask those who have been exposed to or have symptoms of the virus not to enter the Ox-Bow campus. Guests will be asked to fill in a self-assessment survey 48 hours before arrival on campus. If guests are determined to be showing symptoms of COVID and Ox-Bow declines the reservation, a refund will be issued, minus a $150 cancelation fee.

We thank you for your understanding and support. As a small arts organization, we are depending on this income to help keep our 111-year-old campus and small staff intact.

In the event that state regulations require Ox-Bow to cancel rentals, guests will receive a full refund.
