Lovely retreat close to Lake Brophy bike trails
Spent the weekend at Lake Brophy for a high school bike race. This house was such a great place for us to enjoy while not at the bike park. Clean, plenty of room (for people amd bikes) and a wonderful property.

It was a beautiful place for a friend's getaway! It was close to the lakes, within driving distance to Alexandria and it's sites. We loved the screened in porch that kept the mosquitoes at bay! It is also handicapped accessible. Loved it!

Peaceful Rural Getaway
A clean, well-kept single level home within 5-10 minutes of Alexandria. The screened-in deck was a big hit with our dog and was wonderful way to be outside without the bugs. The kitchen is nicely stocked with the essentials. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and definitely recommend this Country Home.

State trap weekend
We stayed for a long weekend so we could be close to the shooting park in Alexandria. The big backyard and three seasons porch were perfect for our stay! We had two late-teens and three adults and there was more than enough space for all of us!

Fabulous Rural Gem
Family of four and two dogs - came in to do some hiking and visiting with nearby family. The home was immaculate, the yard had a great trail for the dogs. The patio was a great place to eat and play games until it got chilly. We would stay again.

Well equipped!
The house was exactly as advertised, and just what we were looking for...a quiet base of operations for a golf weekend. We did plenty of our own cooking, and the place that everything we needed, including gas grill and a pancake griddle! If you're staying here during the week, you might get more truck noise from the nearby highway. It was definitely less busy over the weekend.
