McGonagill House ~ 2 King beds/1 dbl

About Janet Groth

We are the great-grandchildren of the original owner and builders JA and Maggie McGonagill and ate many Sunday 'after church' meals here with family and friends. We walked to the French Grocery store and charged candy bars and cokes to our parents after school when we were kids. We played games in the yard. This home and this town are dear to our hearts and an integral part of our family history.

Why Janet Groth chose Marathon

This home has been in my family for four generations. Although we don't live in the area, we love Marathon for its one-of-a-kind atmosphere. We support the Marathon Baptist Church and enjoy meals at the restaurants in Marathon. The Fourth of July Dance at the Post, local roping and horsemanship events, and nostalgia call us back to Marathon numerous times every year.

What makes this House unique

Short walk to downtown Marathon; tranquility and large parking area; family ties to Marathon; read about our ranching family and how and why the house was constructed in Marathon. We have a large yard and generally allow outside guests to gather if they are part of your party and staying at other locations in town. However, if the number of outside guests is greater than 15 or they stay for more than 4 hours, a fee starting at $25 is assessed. Guests are responsible for cleaning the outdoor area; if not cleaned, a minimum $50 cleaning fee is assessed. Excessive noise is prohibited. There is a maximum of 40 people on the property at any one time. Please contact the property manager, Janet, for more details.
