| dc.description | Overall view from Black Point Rd., northwest facade facing the sea; Prouts Neck is a peninsula in the town of Scarborough. Prouts Neck first appears on a map by Samuel de Champlain from his 1604 explorations of New England. In early times it was known as Black Point because of the dark appearance of its forests. It was developed for wealthy summer residents in the 1870s. There were several hotels built in that period; Black Point Inn is the only remaining hotel. The hotel was built by the Kahler family, and enlarged in 1923 when it was sold to the Sprague family. It has recently been restored. Prouts Neck is known also for artist Winslow Homer (1836-1910), whose nearby studio overlooking Cannon Rock is a National Historic Landmark.
