The Number You Came For, With a Caveat Attached
The documented slot machine count at Oxford Casino is 970. That figure comes from publicly published reference sources, and it describes the property at a particular point in time — not a permanent, unchanging total.
Casino floors are rebuilt. Banks of machines get swapped for newer cabinets, a section gets converted to table games, or a renovation changes the layout. Any published machine count is a snapshot, and the only way to get today's number is to check the property's own current materials or ask guest services directly.
Where Oxford Casino Sits
Oxford Casino is in Oxford, Maine, at approximately 44.1152 north latitude and 70.4459 west longitude. The property is owned and operated by Churchill Downs Inc., and it opened on June 5, 2012.
The venue operates as a hotel and casino. Its documented facility profile includes a gaming floor, a hotel, slot machines, and table games, all of which are described in the figures below.
Documented Facility Figures
The table below lists the facility figures recorded in publicly published reference sources. Each number carries the same caveat: properties are expanded, renovated, and reconfigured, so a figure published at one moment may not match the floor on the day you visit.
| Facility field | Documented figure | Measurement type |
|---|---|---|
| Slot machines | 970 | Point-in-time published count |
| Table games | 28 | Point-in-time published count |
| Gaming space | 27,000 square feet | Point-in-time published floor area |
| Hotel rooms | 107 | Point-in-time published room count |
| Opened | June 5, 2012 | Documented opening date |
The most useful single number for understanding the slot floor is the gaming space figure: 27,000 square feet. Machine count and floor area move together, but not in a fixed ratio. A floor can hold fewer machines after a remodel that widens aisles or adds a bar, even if the square footage stays the same.
Why Slot Counts Are Hard to Compare
If you are trying to compare Oxford Casino's 970 machines against another property's published count, you are comparing numbers that may not mean the same thing. Three definitional differences usually explain the gap:
- What counts as a slot machine. Some properties count electronic table games, video poker terminals, or hybrid cabinets inside their slot total; others report them separately or not at all.
- Gaming space versus total building area. A 27,000-square-foot gaming floor sits inside a larger building that also holds the hotel, restaurants, corridors, and back-of-house space. Comparing one venue's gaming square footage to another's total building square footage produces a meaningless result.
- Hotel room count scope. A 107-room hotel figure may or may not include rooms in an adjacent tower or a separately branded wing. Room counts are only comparable when both properties define the count the same way.
None of this means the documented figures are wrong. It means they answer a narrower question than most comparisons assume.
Straight-Line Distance to Reference Points
Oxford Casino's fixed position lets us state great-circle distances to other documented locations. These are straight-line measurements, not road distances, and they are useful for understanding where the property sits relative to major cities — not for planning a drive.
| Reference point | Straight-line distance from Oxford Casino | Measurement type |
|---|---|---|
| Boston | 125.1 miles | Great-circle, not road |
| New York City | 297.0 miles | Great-circle, not road |
| Atlantic City | 387.1 miles | Great-circle, not road |
| Philadelphia | 375.8 miles | Great-circle, not road |
| Toronto | 445.9 miles | Great-circle, not road |
| Washington DC | 494.8 miles | Great-circle, not road |
Road distance is always longer than straight-line distance, and this article does not publish driving mileage or travel times. To measure from your own starting point, take the venue's coordinates and your own location, then use a mapping tool that calculates road distance along actual routes.
What to Confirm Before You Go
Several details about Oxford Casino can change between the publication of any reference source and the day you arrive. The property's own channels carry the current answer for each of the following:
- Current slot machine count. The documented figure is 970, but a floor can change. The property's gaming floor page or a call to guest services gives the live number.
- Which games are on the floor. Machine models, denominations, and progressive jackpot links rotate. The casino's own slot finder or floor map, where published, is the authoritative source.
- Hotel room availability. The documented room count is 107, but availability on a given night is a booking question, not a facility figure.
- Operating hours and access. Hours and entry policies are set by the operator and can change. Confirm them on the property's published hours page before travelling.
FAQ
How many slot machines does Oxford Casino have?
The documented count is 970 slot machines, as recorded in publicly published reference sources. That figure is a point-in-time snapshot. Casino floors are reconfigured, and the property's own current materials or guest services line will carry the live number if the floor has changed since the figure was published.
Is the 970 slot machine figure still accurate today?
It was accurate at the time the reference source recorded it. Whether it matches today's floor depends on whether the property has added, removed, or converted machines since then. The only way to confirm the current count is to check the casino's published floor information or ask the property directly.
How big is the gaming floor at Oxford Casino?
The documented gaming space is 27,000 square feet, and the documented table game count is 28. Both figures come from the same publicly published reference sources and carry the same point-in-time caveat. Gaming square footage is a subset of the building's total area, not the whole footprint.
