I myself haven't visited this former hotel but if I do I will report back here with any new apparition info. Stay tuned.

This former hotel holds much history. President Rutherford B. Hayes even stayed here. As of now, the former hotel has been converted to private apartments upstairs and a museum devoted to Gold Rush history (Yreka came to be because of the discovery of gold) and a barbershop downstairs.

You can read more about this building from a local blog site here.

Public access?: This former hotel is open Monday through Friday Visting hours: Fri-Sun 1-5pm Website about the location and/or story: [Web Link]
