How about a visit to Black Point Inn for a cocktail party with general manager Phil Kronenthal? It’s happening today and every Monday from 4:30-5:30pm, rain or shine.  On sunny Mondays, you will find Phil outside by the BPI pool which is surrounded by lush greenery and comfortable seating. In inclement weather, your destination will be the  Sunporch with its white wicker furniture and spectacular view of the ocean and Ferry Beach. Whether you are poolside or on the Sunporch, you will have an opportunity to sample a variety of wines along with a delicious assortment of cheeses, beautifully displayed on a platter created by our pastry chef, Laura Rudy. It is an event which is sure to brighten your day and we look forward to seeing you there!

At Black Point Inn http://blackpointinn.com/blog/spring-at-black-point-inn/2010/04/07/ http://blackpointinn.com/blog/spring-at-black-point-inn/2010/04/07/#comments Wed, 07 Apr 2010 20:06:01 +0000 admin http://blackpointinn.com/blog/?p=387 Spring has come to Prouts Neck!  Right here at our own seaside resort the grass is greening, the forsythia is out, and the trees are budding!  The temperatures are coming around each day a little more, although -because we are after all an oceanfront hotel- the breezes off the ocean are still a little cool.

We are getting ready to open on Mother’s Day Weekend, (Friday May 7) and we will be posting a Mother’s Day package soon!

Also we are renovating the front entrance steps at the inn.  Look for progress on this project right here!

Pure skill, brawn and sailing smarts were put to the test to keep their ships from running up against the sandy beach… and certain destruction!!!!

These two girls had started summer, there was no turning back.  Summer, swimming, beachin, lazy days digging in the sand… its all a go right here at Black Point Inn.
