Brophy Reflections 4BR/2BA, 2 Kitchens, Firepit, Year Round Rental, Lic#1798

Welcome to Brophy Reflections! Built in the early 60's this rambler boasts beautiful sunset views from a bank overlooking Lake Brophy. Bring your personal items along with some food and come stay in our comfortable, tastefully furnished home. You will be drawn to the large living room windows and look out over the lake. Cozy is what you'll feel when you turn on the gas fireplace. We have two Roku TVs &DVD players.

The dining table seats 6-10 with the two leaves.. The fully furnished kitchen has microwave, coffee maker and dishwasher.

Upstairs there are three bedrooms and one bath are at the south end of house and can be separated by closing the pocket door. Great for napping and quiet time!

In our remodeled upstairs bathroom you'll find towels, and a limited supply of tp and kleenex. There are wash cloths, hand and bath towels for our guests to use. There is a compact washer/dryer upstairs, and full size machines downstairs.

The Blue Bedroom has one queen bed, and one twin. A full size bed is in the Purple Bedroom which looks over the lake. The Master Bedroom has a queen bed and a corner window with a lake view.

Downstairs we have a fourth bedroom with a full Tempur-pedic (firm) and a twin bed.

Downstairs you'll find a cozy spot with a sofa bed and loveseat. The large ottoman also has a pull out twin bed. Wifi is provided.

The Kitchenette downstairs is furnished but has no dishwasher (dishwasher is in upstairs kitchen.) The downstairs bathroom has a walk in shower with a seat. The downstairs is like an apartment: kitchen, bedroom, bath and living room with a gas fireplace.

Go out the downstairs door and walk onto a shaded patio. The steps down to the lake are many but there is a landing with a bench where you can take a rest or watch the lake action. Brophy is a quiet lake on the chain. A sand beach area(depending on water level), and a small grassy area is there for you to enjoy. A dock with a boat slip is for your convenience, along with a Kennedy paddle boat, kayak and paddle board. You may swim, jet ski, water ski, fish or whatever. Please have lots of fun but at the same time respectful of the neighbors.

Our front yard is family friendly. There is a fire pit with chairs out front. Yes, you may bring your dog with prior approval and additional fee . Dogs must remain on leash, kenneled or downstairs. A Dog Addendum must be signed.

Brophy Reflections is less than 10 minutes to Alexandria. Beautiful sandy Latoka beach is only 1.5 miles away and Lake Brophy has a new public beach with a beautiful play center, and bathrooms on the west side of the lake. Go another direction and travel that same distance, just around Lake Cowdry to the bike/walking path; take this path west to the new Brophy beach. Alexandria offers so many outdoor opportunities. During the winter Brophy Reflections is less than half a mile to the snowmobile trail. After a great day of sledding you will come home to a cozy warm house. If you enjoy skiing and snowboarding Andes Tower Hills is about 15 miles away. You can fish on Brophy or go to one of the area lakes. Golfing is convenient as ArrowWood is only a 10 minutes drive. The museums in town are so interesting, shopping is unique, AAAA theatre offers entertainment throughout the year. There is bowling, miniature golf and cinema. Tennis courts, playgrounds and restaurants are right in town. There is always something to do in Alexandria! Most of all you can take advantage of your vacation and relax.

Thank you for looking at Brophy Reflections!

Blessings!
Susan and Ken Persons

We really enjoyed our stay on Lake Brophy. The house was great: clean, room for all of us with great water view/access. The beds were very comfortable and the host provided many comforts of home. The back lower-level outdoor area provided seating for dinners with a BBQ grill. If back in the area we will rent again.

Spacious, clean, well stocked. I was able to cook lunch for 8 with no issues. The fishing was great, the beds were comfy, the water pressure in the showers was great. My husband had a great time with the pedal pontoon AND the laundry chute. Great sunsets out the back window. Will definitely book it next year.

Relaxing Weekend on Lake Brophy

We were new to visiting the area and were happy with our choice. The lake is a little smaller than some in the area, but was perfect for some floating and relaxing. It was so nice to be able to use the dock to leave the boat in for the weekend. Everyone in the group said the beds were all very comfortable as were the pillows. It had everything we needed with nice amenities, including the kayak and extra lifejackets if needed. This place would be perfect for a bigger family since it had 2 kitchens and 2 living rooms. Host was great to communicate with and property was as described. If we were in the area again, I wouldn't hesitate to rebook this location.

We have been fortunate to have stayed at Brophy Reflections for 4 years. The convenience of the double kitchens and family rooms are so wondering for my kids and grandkids. It feels like coming home! Sue has been wonderful to me and my family. Already booked for next summer!

Nice place

The owner was pleasant and wanted to make sure we were comfortable. The beds were very cozy. We were pleasantly surprised as usually, at other places, the mattresses are, at best, ok. The kitchen was well stocked with just about everything you would need. We had a few minor issues being one air conditioner wasn't working properly, but it was cool while there, so not a big issue. They were working at trying to get it fixed. We had a moment that was irritating, when the guy mowing blew grass on us while we were cooking dinner on the patio and saw that there were several people sitting there and didn't even bother to apologize or turn around to blow it the other way. There were alot of stairs down to the lake...36 steps as my granddaughter counted. Going down was ok, coming up was a little more difficult. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Winter family time!

So much to do in the area in the winter! We went to Carlos Creek winery on Friday afternoon, then ate pizza at Zorbaz that night. Saturday morning was free fun where we went sledding as a family on the hill at Brophy Patk just a few miles away and then kids played at the playground. We came back and cooked a late lunch, then loaded up for day passes at the waterpark at Arrowwood! Kids were ages 1-9 and it was an absolute blast for all involved. Then we came back to Brophy Reflections and had a family movie night. Sue was a great great host and the process was easy. Clear checkout instructions were available from the start so we knew right away what few things we would be asked to do (load dishwasher, take out trash, etc) but it wasn't an intimidating list like so many can sometimes be.We stayed in February with extended family, and the house next door is also a rental, so we were able to stay in both with our large group, and it worked perfectly!

Susan was great! Our kids had a blast. The house was a little old and smelled like it. Maybe someone smoked in there years ago? It was fine though and we got used to it and had an amazing time.
