| | Captain Cook Inn, Lincoln City, Oregon (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17) |
 | | Because Neel's Autel was also build directly across Highway 101 from the then swanky Dorchester House Resort Hotel and at the time Lincoln City was mostly scattered with small beach cottages, Neel's was considered to be the premier motel on the Central Oregon Coast. |
 | | In 1972 Captain Ron Cook of the Devils Lake Fire District bought Neel's Motel and after a trip to Anchorage, Alaska and a stay at the historic Captain Cook Hotel, Ron was inspired to change the name to Captain Cook's Motel. |
 | | However, with the start of the 90's, ownership of the Captain Cook Motel changed hands and with that came a fresh start, new hope, and a major renovation process that ended up lasting over ten years. |
