Memories are Made on Brophy Shores- 5 bedroom, 2 Bath, Private lake shore

Let your adventure begin! Lake Brophy is a quiet, 289 acre lake perfect for fishing, skiing, tubing, and swimming. Take a boat ride around the island or head to the nearby Brophy Park. The park has direct access to the Central Lakes Trail as well as space to play.

Back at the cabin, you can relax in privacy on the shore or one of the lakeside patios. Feel right at home in one of two living rooms with views of the lake. Take a relaxing bath in the Jacuzzi tub. Enjoy outdoor cooking, a full kitchen, and indoor or outdoor dining. End your day around the campfire on the shore.

This home away from home has 5 queen beds and twin bunk beds. After a goodnight's sleep, wake to beautiful lake views upstairs and down. Step on the upper patio to watch the sunrise with your cup of coffee.

The cabin is located just over 2 miles from Alexandria where you will find shopping, theaters, and many fun daytime activities.

Fantastic Lake Property
Great location at a nice lake. We loved the fire pit, spacious house with great views. Spacious rooms and all amenities available. It was early fall so we did not get in/on the lake. Bike trails were close and accessible.

A lot of space for family to enjoy outside and inside!
House is very spacious, clean and comfortable. Views are beautiful. We were able to rent their pontoon and our group of 9 were able to be together all at once. (3 children). The deck is huge and has railing all around so little ones can wander off. Also the garage is a "game room" and one evening it rained and we didn't care if we couldn't have a bonfire that night as the game are was so fun! Would love to stay again! Thank youQ

Amazing July 4th Lake Home Family Time
The home and property are very nice. Well kept. Nothing fancy- but very nice for a family get together over the 4th! Our group was large: four children and 6 adults. We had a blast! Brophy Lake is not large, but it is a super fun lake where you can swim, jetski and pontoon on! This property has everything you need! Large living room area, outdoor deck for eating! Lots of water equipment too! Kayaks, paddleboards, small pontoon if you want to rent it which we did. There is a very nice fire pit by the water too. We had 3 nights of S'mores and sitting around the fire pit! The owners have worked hard to think of everything you need as a vacationer! Thank you to Sarah and Jason! Our 5 nights were amazing memory making family time!
