The Relax Inn Motel sits on South Main Street in downtown Yreka, a two-story motor lodge where rooms open directly to the parking lot instead of facing long hallways or tight corridors. This layout means your dog can move from car to room without passing through shared spaces, making arrivals and departures straightforward. A small outdoor pool sits in the courtyard, though dogs don’t use it; the real advantage is the open grounds around the property where you have space to walk. The rooms are basic but functional, with some units including kitchenettes if you want to prepare meals rather than hunt for restaurants while managing your dog.

Dogs stay here for a nightly fee, with the motel assigning designated pet rooms to keep things organized for both dog owners and guests traveling without pets. The pet fee is reasonable compared to chain motels in the area.

Yreka’s town center is walkable from the motel—you’re blocks from downtown shops and the historic courthouse square. The neighborhoods around Main Street are quiet enough in early morning or evening for walks. Spring Hill Road and surrounding side streets provide gentle terrain without much traffic. The Klamath River runs through town, and Manzanita Lake lies about 20 minutes northeast, giving you broader hiking options if you’re staying multiple nights. Rates are affordable for the region, and the motel doesn’t require renovated rooms or upscale touches—the 3.5-star rating reflects straightforward lodging with reliable beds and staff that treats dogs as standard guests.
