Nestled in the Turtle Mountains and tri-lake area, it boasts a strong agricultural economy. Known for its safe and welcoming environment, Killarney offers affordable housing and a friendly community. The population of 3,500 nearly doubles in summer, attracting visitors to its lakes, beaches, and forests. Located 20 km from the U.S. border, Killarney-Turtle Mountain is popular among outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy its numerous lakes, beaches, forests, and other natural areas that are typically “Canadian.” Killarney also has an interesting history, with an Irish connection. An early settler and Irish land surveyor, John Sidney O'Brien, named Killarney Lake after the Lakes of Killarney in Ireland. Legend has it that as he sat on the shore of the lake, O’Brien took a bottle of “Good Irish” from his pack and, pouring it into the lake, christened it Killarney. Today, the "Irish"-ness of the community is reflected in its green fire trucks, Erin and Kerry Parks, Little Irish Downs, and many other Irish-themed attractions. It is also home to the “Killarney Shamrocks” hockey team and the “Killarney Lakers” baseball team. While Killarney has no official connection with the town of Killarney, Ireland, most of the people who initially settled in the region were from the Scottish Highlands, England, and Central Europe.
