Spruce Point Inn "spruces up" during the winter break.

We make the commitment to keep surprising you, our guests, by staying in shape with new enhancements, conveniences and amenities that keep Spruce Point Inn fresh.

Cottage Painting - Decorating

 

We have a full regimen planned to tone up every building on the property between now and May, focusing, in particular, on our cottages, modern lodge guestrooms, waterfront features, family amenities and landscaping.

Among the highlights: 

• New playground features include several "beached" boats - a pirate ship, a small sailboat and a lobster boat - facsimiles made of cedar, connecting kids' experiences on the waterfront with their play. 
• This year you will find the Inn's recreational amenities are being focused around the saltwater pool: bicycles, kayaks and fishing gear will be relocated to this area and a kayak launch ramp will be added to the Inn's dock and float. New cedar decking and a snack center are being installed near the pool.  
• In the fire pit area, where we host our evening s'mores, there will be more seating, picnic tables and -- by popular request from our cottagers -- new charcoal grills.
• On the waterfront, we're building stair access to the shorefront and plan to tuck benches into the nooks that are favorite places for guests to enjoy the view and ocean breezes.
• We are installing new technology and operating systems that will optimize service in all three restaurants, Deck, Bogie's and 88.

   

Spruce Point Inn will open for the 2013 season on May 19. Reservations and sales assistance is offered year round, although the Inn is closed for the season.

Seabreeze Lodge Porch

  

One of our major efforts over the winter is what we're calling our "fresh air campaign" for guestrooms in Seagull, Puffin, Loon, Seabreeze, Balsam and Evergreen. We're engineering more cross-ventilation, installing louvered doors or baffled vents that circulate a higher cubic volume of air so guests are better able to enjoy the seabreeze day and night.

 

We're also doing some cosmetic renovation to the modern Lodge rooms, starting with Seabreeze to update the look and feel by introducing the marine palette of interior paint, replacing some carpeting with wood floors, exchanging drapery for Levolor blinds, and updating furnishings.

 

We continue interior painting and the program to enhance the cottages with new spruce shutters we began last year. 

 

Seabreeze Modern Lodge Renovation

Landscaping improvements include new stone rip/rap on the waterfront, new plantings in the Lighthouse, Linekin and Spruce Cottage surroundings and several new garden features.

A classic returns...

We're building the original Adirondack chair, patent filed in 1905, in our woodshop this winter. We look forward to sharing these chairs and the history - next season. Look for them on the front porch of the Inn.

You might be most interested to learn that we will formalize our cutting exchange this year, letting all our guests know that you are invited to try cuttings of favorite Inn flowers or herbs in your own gardens.
