Not as I expected.
The location was great. We found that the elevated portion Of the room hazardous for my husband with a larger than normal step up causing safety concerns for him. Also, The left side of the King size bed had a ledge which made getting out of bed a bit cumbersome especially in the middle of the night therefore we slept separately. When booking, did not realize there was no sink in the kitchenette so dishes had to be done in the bathroom which was not ideal. In fairness to the owners none of this was discussed with them at the time of our stay.

Beautiful area and wonderful hosts
We loved our stay at the McDonald Mtn Ranch. Our hosts were very accommodating in the midst of issues outside of their control. They made us feel very welcome.
