The giggles could be heard on the sunporch at the Inn. Just down below at the beach summer had started! Our photographer hopped on a bicycle and coasted down the hill to the Sand Dollar beach.
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.

This article comes from Mariah Monks who has been working and learning with us here at BPI as part of her senior project at Waynflete School in Portland Maine. During her internship Mariah spent most of her time here at the inn with us, but she also spent some time at our sister property Migis Lodge. We asked Mariah if she would go behind the scenes at the inn to capture a wedding here from the vantage of the back of the house. Here is her take on how it all went……
“When I walked into the lobby at 9:00 am on Saturday I was skeptical as to how the staff could pull off a wonderful wedding given that it was pouring rain. I stood at the front desk dripping wet from the 50 yard dash to the Inn from my car. At the front desk Tracy the reservation manager was busily answering the phones and making last minute corrections to the wedding schedule. Meanwhile, chefs, waiters, florists and managers bustled around me trying to organize. I was immediately assigned to the dinning room where I worked to set tables and prep for the event. Despite the pouring rain the staff was working tirelessly to make the inn would be able to deliver a unforgettable experience for the wedding party. By some miracle, at 10:30, just as the bride arrived from the off-site ceremony the sun was beginning to peek through the clouds and warm the drenched landscape. While the bride went up stairs to freshen up and the first few guests started to arrive the staff made last minute checks through the inn to make sure everything was in order. The dinning room looked flawless with purple lilac centerpieces and sunlight streaming through the wide windows. The flower archway leading into the dinning room was the cherry on top of the cake. Guests gathered in the Sun room munching on hors d’oeuvres while the photographer snapped pictures of the flower girl playing in the front lawn. Outside guests were relaxing on the porch enjoying the spectacular view of Ferry Beach and chatting animatedly about the newly weds. I don’t know how it happened, but the chaos of earlier that morning had been replaced by a vibrant crowd basking in the enjoyment of the happy couple and the breathtaking scenery! The rest of the afternoon flowed along right on schedule right to the point that the bride and groom left the inn for their honeymoon amid a storm of bubbles and confetti!
Black Point Inn had done it again!
Interesting video appeared here today. This one of our sister property, Migis Lodge on Sebago Lake. Migis Lodge and Black Point Inn are two of the very few remaining historic resort properties in Maine. There are a few others to be sure, but not many remain.
We thought you might enjoy this video..
