Open the Photos app, click Preferences on the Photos menu, click iCloud at the top of the Preferences window.

Note that the Photo Stream option isn't available on a Mac if iCloud Photos is turned on. Also note the following from My Photo Stream - Apple Support

If you recently created your Apple ID, My Photo Stream might not be available. If My Photo Stream isn't available, use iCloud Photos to keep your photos and videos in iCloud.
