The exercises @PixieGrl mentions are good. You can get even more benefit from them by adding resistance bands to increase the resistance. The set shown below comes with an adjustable door anchor and ankle straps so you’ll be able to workout your legs with exercises like leg extensions, hip extensions and laying leg curls.

I recommend getting a set of Bodylastics resistance bands like the ones shown here. With the unique clipping system, you’ll be able to clip multiple bands onto the attachments for custom resistance levels.
Squats: stand with feet hip-width apart, and bend at the knees as if you were going to sit down, making sure to keep your knees from going past your toes.
Lunges: Stand with legs spread apart, one foot in front and one foot in back. Bend the front knee so that it comes to a 90 degree angle, and lower your back knee as far down to the ground as you can. Return to starting position.
Calf raises: Stand on one foot (hold on to chair or something else sturdy for balance, if necessary) and lift up on to your toes. Go back down for one complete calf raise.
