Oval Beach, Saugatuck, Michigan, USA
Originally a lumber town and port, Saugatuck, along with the adjacent city of Douglas, became a noted art colony and tourist destination in the Arts and Crafts movement of the late 19th century. In the early 20th century, Saugatuck was home to the famous Big Pavilion, a large dance hall that attracted bands and visitors from across the Midwest.
The building was a popular destination on Lake Michigan from its construction in 1909 until it burned down on May 6, 1960.
