From their own web site, " Since 1910 (and part of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago)..Students from schools across the country visit Ox-Bow to study and make art on the school’s 115-acre campus in Saugatuck, Michigan, 150 miles northeast of Chicago."

Just at the top of the hill before you turn to Oxbow there is a great hiking trail that takes you to an overlook of Lake Michigan. It's about 1.5 miles round trip.
