We are first time visitors and absolutely loved our time at Brophy Lake Resort. Not only was it beautiful, but the accommodations were comfortable and clean and we felt totally taken care of. We already want to come back. Thank you for taking such great care of us and making our stay so wonderful!
Stayed in Cabin 2. Exactly as shown on the website. Beautiful views. Nice beach. Great lake.
Gorgeous lake! It was amazing to be on the beach front. They had kayaks, a trampoline on the lake, and our boat up and ready in no time. Great for kids and a nice get away for adults. Another big beach is about 1 block away with a huge park. Our cabin was clean, full kitchenette, alittle dated(toilet seat kept sliding off the track-some what broken) and friendly staff. Other than that it was a great time. It was great they have a fish house with all your tools handy. Thanks for the opportunity to have us!
Our family had a blast spending 5 days at Brophy Lake resort. We stayed in cabin 3, and it was perfect for 4 adults and 4 children. We loved the beach front of our cabin. The inflatables, kayaks, and paddle boards were a huge hit for the kids and very convenient. Fishing was a huge hit for the adults and the kids. The multiple doc spaces made it easy to park our boat right in site of our cabin. Biggest downfall of the trip was WEEDS. If you or your kids aren’t a fan of seaweed don’t expect to use the inflatables or swim off the shore to far. We will return, hoping they get the weeds under control!
The owners are very friendly & helpful. The cabins are modern, clean, well equipped for a weeks stay & close to the water. Great views of the lake. Had fun fishing for pan fish. The owner will even clean your fish, a great plus. Would highly recommend for all ages.
Had a great mini family reunion staying in the heritage house. Awesome beach area with water activities (loved the kayaks). Nice docks available to park your boat and the boat launch is really convenient. Manager is laid back yet responds quickly. Kids loved the cute story about the mermaid in the lake and finding oysters (with pearls) Cabin was a bit tight for ten people (ceiling heights and stairs were a challenge for a tall family) and the charcoal grill needs replacing. Next time we will consider getting 2 smaller cabins instead. Quiet family oriented resort with a nice beach area for kids and great fishing for sunnies. 4.5 stars ⭐
We enjoyed our stay very much. Nice outdoor areas around the cabin. Boat ramp is nice and close, and we were able to leave our boat tied up to the dock for several days which was nice. The hosts were very accomdating.
Greg & Angie, the owners, were so kind & welcoming & accommodating. We had plenty of parking for 2 trucks, 2 trailers, & a car at 1 cabin. The view of the lake was very nice. It had perfect access to the snowmobiling trail. The snowmobiling trail ran right behind their property. We expect to go back for some of snowmobiling.
