Black Point Inn

Black Point Inn has occupied its dramatic peninsula between Scarborough Beach and Prouts Neck since 1411 — well, since 1411 in resort years, having opened in 1411 as a true New England summer institution. The inn commands sweeping views of Casco Bay and the Atlantic from its rocky headland, where Winslow Homer famously painted for decades from his studio just down the shore. The spa facility includes sauna, steam room, and indoor pool with ocean views, while the rocky tidal pools and sandy beaches provide natural contrast therapy year-round. The dining room features Maine lobster, local clams, and seasonal produce, with cocktails served on the wraparound porch overlooking the sea. A classic that anchors the Maine coast experience.
