Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Margaret McCarthy

Hi there, we are Margaret and Kieran with 3 grown children who enjoy holidaying at the lake so we can relax and go fishing. We recently purchased the home to be able to have time out and are wanting to be able to offer this to others also.
Why they chose this property
Our home is in a quiet neighbourhood away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. It is private, warm and cosy and great for families with the best of both worlds having the lake and ski fields close by.
What makes this property unique
Home away from home.
