Best value for money. The Nightingales Inn is a quaint bed & breakfast with private rooms available for rent. The inn is owned by mystery novel authors and it’s reflected in the inn’s decor and atmosphere. When we got here, we were greeted with a beautiful house surrounded by tall trees, and a well-kept garden. We loved how it gives the inn a secluded feeling, despite its central location, only a few blocks from Main Street.

The inn itself was very cozy with vintage furnishing, and a homey feeling. We especially loved relaxing by the inn’s deck, and warming ourselves by the fire-pit, whilst sipping on some complimentary wine, with our dog as a companion.

“Staying at the Nightingales Inn felt like we were visiting Granny’s home: warm and delicious breakfast every morning, hosts who loved our dog as much as we do, and an overall familiar warm and hearthy feeling.”

Green Springs Inn

Situated deep in the Siskiyou Mountains, Green Springs Inn offered us a nice, relaxing, and secluded lodging. The inn has several pet-friendly rooms and cabins for us to choose from, and our trip to the mountainous Ashland wouldn’t have been completed if we hadn’t stayed in a proper cabin lodging at least once.

That said, staying here was the perfect way to unplug and truly enjoy nature. Our days would consist of just drinking in the view, lounging on the inn’s deck, having BBQs with other guests, and trekking the trails in the nearby woods with our dog. When we get back from a day of adventure, the jacuzzi in our cabin awaits us with a promise of ultimate relaxation. As for the cabins themselves, its wooden building gives off a cozy vibe, whilst still having the comfort of modern equipment like a kitchen, a fireplace, and a jacuzzi. We had the one fit for two guests, but the inn has cabins big enough for up to six guests.

Beyond that, the hospitality and services here were top-of-the-line. It’s a family-owned business, so the staff treated us likewise. As a pet-friendly inn, the hotel allows one dog in their lodge rooms, and two dogs in the cabins. There’s no size restriction, but there’s a $25 pet fee per stay in the lodge rooms and a $50 pet fee in the cabins. Overall, the pet policy is quite standard, and our leashed dog was free to be in the common areas.

Suffice it to say, with how detailed they care for our pets, it was for the $45 pet fee per pet, per stay.

Ashland Springs Hotel

Overall Best. Ashland Springs Hotel is not just a pet-friendly hotel in the heart of downtown Ashland, but it’s also a historical landmark dating back to the 1920s. It’s been the hubbub of affluent guests since the hotel was established. When we stayed here, we received nothing less than perfection. The hotel itself exuded an old-money luxury with its opulent vintage furnishing reminiscent of the glamorous 1920s.

Most importantly, their incredible hospitality also extended to our pets. With their accommodating pet policy, we were able to bring our two dogs without a fuss. We simply had to pay the extra $30 pet fee per pet, per night and made sure our dogs weighed under 80lb. Additionally, feline pets are also welcomed with prior approval from the hotel.

Where To Stay in Ashland, OR with Your Pet?

One thing about Ashland, dog-friendly hotels are practically everywhere, making it easy to find accommodations while visiting with our furry companions. During our many trips to Ashland, we’d often switched up our itinerary and matched the hotel’s location for convenience. That said, we mainly stuck to Downtown Ashland and the Siskiyou Mountain area.

Downtown Ashland is an obvious pick for being the town’s entertainment center. It’s home to many of Ashland’s touristy spots, shopping centers, restaurants, and the famous Oregon Shakespeare Festival. The area also is very walkable, making it convenient to explore the city with our pets. While we loved cafe-hopping, the trail leading to Lithia Park quickly became our go-to trek for walks with our pets. Plus, Main Street is teeming with pet-friendly hotels, so we were spoiled for options.

As for the Siskiyou Mountain area, it’s our favorite destination for a relaxing and tranquil retreat. It’s where we’d go for a breath of fresh air, and when we’re feeling adventurous. Most of the pet-friendly hotels up here give off a rustic, summer camp vibe, with its wooden cabins, and surrounding nature. It’s truly the perfect area to wind down with our pets. That said, even though the area remains secluded, you can reach central Ashland in just a 30-minute drive.
