A striking, very tall flagpole on Tawas Bay waterfront—great for minimalist vertical compositions, patriotic night shots, and using the lake and pier as foregrounds. Best at sunrise for warm light over water or at blue hour when the flag and pole are illuminated against deep sky. Easily accessible from W Lake St with free street/park parking; no entry fee. Weekdays and early mornings minimize tourists and fishermen. Modest facilities nearby; respect local ceremonies and flag etiquette.
