Prouts Neck

Captain Thomas Cammock, a nephew of the Earl of Warwick, was the first European settler of present day Prouts Neck.

There are a number of antique summer "cottages" that have been in families for generations, several of which were designed by noted architect John Calvin Stevens.

Although there were once many hotels on Prouts Neck,[2] including the Jocelyn, and most notably the Checkley, the only one that remains is the venerable Black Point Inn,[3] which is open on a seasonal basis.

The Prouts Neck Bathing Association (PNBA) is responsible for maintenance and regulation of the private Beach Club.

The Prouts Neck Yacht Club (PNYC) is located on the southwestern corner of the peninsula, also known as Western Point.
