Not for a family with kids
We give 5 stars for the cleanliness, the design and decor
Nice and cozy
The only down fall is the yard is a steep down hill with no room for kids to play
No grill either so no cook out.
It was ok for what we wanted. The heat is an issue. It was definitely very cold in the back room. The "kitchen" is tiny, but comparable to a hotel kitchenette. The property is nice and the people are nice.

The McDonald inn is beautiful and inviting.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The apartment was spacious and beautiful. We felt at home! The shared space is also a really fun space to hang out! The McDonald's cared for all of our needs.
My only suggestions would be possibly having a water dispenser in the apartment, and a keyless entry (I fumbled with the lock box trying to get the key out of the way of the locking mechanism).
We'd love to go back!!

Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
Bad communication and barking dog
The owners left their dogs in crates right above where we were trying to sleep. The poor dogs were locked in their crates for 12 hours and wouldn’t stop barking the entire time we were there. We reached out and messaged and called the property owners and they didn’t even bother to send us a text back or anything. We finally got so fed up and didn’t even stay one night. As we were leaving the owners pulled in and we explained how unhappy we were and that we were leaving and they didn’t even care. I spent a lot of money and didn’t even get a dime back. This was a terrible first and last experience with Vrbo.
My husband and I met up with my sister and her husband for a quiet getaway. We played cards went to area restaurants. The apartment was clean and cozy and the owners very nice. We took advantage of the hot tub and enjoyed our time with Stella. Awesome weekend! Thank you!
Ian decides our cruise will become a hiking trip in the hills instead!
This vacation was supposed to be a cruise to the Caribbean! Our vacation turned into a cozy home in the hills instead! We couldn’t have chosen a better spot for our short notice plans. The owners Sherrie and Jeff are awesome hosts and shared their beautiful home with us! The home is all your own, your own entrance, 2 bedrooms, a beautiful bathroom, a kitchen with everything you need and a cozy living/dining room! They share their donkey and dogs with you as well. There was a beautiful game room and hot tub area too. They were there to recommend places of interest or to eat. We felt so welcomed and at home! Thank you to you both for making our vacation an incredible one! We will see you guys again, maybe even on a cruise =)
We brought a 3 year old who named this place the ‘farm’ and LOVED the “wonkey” donkey!! We had a very comfortable stay- enjoyed exploring hocking hills and Lake Logan. Absolutely recommend!
We stayed to celebrate our daughter’s college graduation. We were able to share a nice dinner we picked up and visit with our family. We loved the “Man Cave” and playing pool. My daughter also enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub. Lots of room and kitchen amenities. We would totally stay again.
Great little place that was the perfect cozy getaway for our girls weekend. It was in a very quiet area and we were within about 30 minutes of Hocking Hills area hiking!
Jeff and Sherrie were awesome hosts. Jeff gave us great tips on where to ride. The roads ate beatiful and winding. Great for our motorcycle trip! Would definately stay here again. Thanks for everything!
We really enjoyed the beautiful surroundings and the cozy layout of this house The kindness and shared conversation of the owners was also nice! What impressed me most was the friendliness of almost everyone we met, in the area. I recommend it,
We took our family for a weekend in Hocking Hills and stayed here. The family was lovely and the guest house was clean. We felt at home from the minute we walked in the door! It is a nice escape from the crowded state park...quiet and secluded!
This property had everything we needed for our fall weekend. Clean and easy, and the host made sure we had everything we needed. Definitely going back next time!
What an amazing weekend we had celebrating our daughter's 16th birthday! Our family of 4 stayed in this beautiful rustic-modern 2 bedroom apartment on a pretty property that included a waterfall, "man cave," hammock, porch swing, BBQ & outdoor table and chairs. While there, we kayaked, canoed, hiked, went to a great farmer's market, and relaxed together. It was a blast, and we look forward to coming back! Thanks for such warm, thoughtful accommodations.
The rental was very nice, clean and exactly as advertised. Owners were very friendly and accommodating. Loved the man cave and our 2 teenagers had a great time with the karaoke machine! Highly recommended
This place is so beautiful and couldn’t have asked for nicer people to manage the property! Nestled in the heart of the Hocking Hills region, a short drive to either Athens or Logan. We loved it!
The property was very nice. The living room area was fantastic. We wished the shower was bigger but the kitchen option and two bedrooms were good. One of the beds needs replaced the other is good. The living area was the best. We played games, watched movies, awesome wifi connection and we were able to eat together at the dining table. Overall, it was a great experience.
The McDonald Inn, 6090 St Rt 78, Glouster, Ohio is a bit of paradise surrounded by lush forests, rolling hills & natural beauty. You'll enjoy staying in a charming cottage apartment with a man cave & amenities. The porch swing is the perfect place for admiring magnificent trees & visiting critters.
Glouster is in an area of friendly communities near Wayne National Forest, Bur Oak State Park, swimming, hiking, fishing, canoeing, horseback riding, etc. There's a little something for everyone including Ohio University life & a walking tour of The Ridges in Athens.
Once a bustling mining region, the countryside has relaxed into an idyllic getaway setting. Sherri & Jeff McDonald, the gracious hosts, have created a beautiful & welcoming retreat for your next vacation.
