@snaphappymichigan
Leelanau County is home to many picturesque farms and this red barn is no exception! Drenched in morning sunlight, this location is best photographed in the winter when it's covered in a fresh layer of white snow.

Turn left and continue about 0.7 miles to Elm Valley Road. Turn right on Elm Valley Road and then travel about 0.5 miles.
