Inscription
Scene of Annual (Swedish) Midsummer Day Festival
This village, situated at the west end of 12 miles of unexcelled sand beach, was named for Henry Brevoort, Jr., 1845 surveyor; originally known as "The Warehouse," when the Mackinaw Lumber Company, which came here in 1875, built a large depot for supplies brought by sailing craft. Commercial fishing followed lumbering.Details
