About McDonald

McDonald sits in the rolling hills of Bradley County, tucked comfortably between Cleveland and Chattanooga. If you are looking for scenic open land and a quiet, spread-out atmosphere, this rural community along U.S. 11 and U.S. 64 hits a great sweet spot. Residents enjoy peaceful countryside living paired with an easy drive into Chattanooga for work or into Cleveland for everyday shopping, dining, and errands.

The area also has a distinct equestrian charm that sets it apart. Bendabout Farm hosts polo matches on its lush grounds, while the nearby Tri-State Exhibition Center draws crowds for horse shows, rodeos, and community events throughout the year. With its spacious lots, fenced pastures, and relaxed pace, McDonald is an appealing choice for anyone who wants room to spread out while staying close to town.
