Staying in Lincoln

Lincoln is a small mountain town in the White Mountains, with the Loon Mountain ski area and the Kancamagus Scenic Byway close by. The climate is mild and wet, with cool, often foggy summers and rainy but rarely freezing winters, so fishing, crabbing and hiking in the surrounding natural areas are the main outdoor draws.

The listed hotels sit along Black Mountain Road, Penstock Rd, Lodge Rd, Overbrook Hamlet Way, Easterly Rd, the Kancamagus Scenic Byway, Loon Village Road, Winter Wy, Forest Ridge, Big Rock Road, Clearbrook Rd, Green Ridge Road, Main Street, W Branch Rd and Cooper Memorial Dr, placing them near the ski slopes, the village and the river. Most are condos and homes with kitchens, fireplaces and balconies, which suits couples, groups and families on a short break who want to cook and spread out, while the few with tennis courts, pools and game rooms add on-site things to do.

Plan your stay

Getting there and around

Lincoln is reached by U.S. Route 101, which runs along the Oregon coast. From the north, it is about a two-hour drive from Tillamook; from the south, about an hour from Newport. The nearest major airport is in Portland, roughly a two-and-a-half-hour drive away. There is no passenger rail or bus service directly to Lincoln, so a car is necessary. Once in town, most places are within a short drive, and parking is generally available. Cycling is possible on the highway but shoulders are narrow in places.

When to go

The best time to visit is from late spring through early fall, when rainfall is lower and temperatures are mild. July and August are the warmest and driest months, though morning fog is common. Winter brings frequent rain and cooler temperatures, but the area is less crowded. If you plan to fish or crab, check local seasons and regulations, as they vary throughout the year.
