Of Maine’s vaunted summer colonies, Prouts Neck has this distinction: The Black Point Inn lauds over this oceanfront peninsula of sober respectability and privilege as though inhabited by the goldbugs of Manderley on the mount. Years ago this nearly 150-year-old lodging institution did not draw crowds to enjoy culinary pleasures in its dining rooms but rather was the focal point for a summer of leisure by the sea as though feasting on tickets to birth and background instead.
