Get Acquainted
From the moment Black Point Inn, and its captivating weathered-grey, shingle-style architecture, enters your field of vision, it’s a classic case of love-at-first-site. Overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and miles of sandy shores, Black Point Inn nestles among a host of nature’s wonders on legendary Prouts Neck; also, the site and once summer home of Homer Winslow, one of America’s most significant artists of the 19th century. No doubt, Black Point Inn, of the renowned Migis Hotel Group, will provide an inspirational backdrop for one the most memorable moments of your life: saying I do.

Here’s the Scoop
Perhaps it’s the stunning coastline views and therapeutic saltwater air, or maybe it’s the dew filled mornings and unhurried and relaxing pace, or perhaps it’s the inspirational sunsets – but most definitely it’s the charming accommodations, gracious hospitality among the Inn’s cozy and refined décor that ensure your celebration at Black Point Inn will be as epic and picturesque as a Homer Winslow painting.

Big Day Details
