About Bavarian Inn Lodge

    This stay includes Wi-Fi and Parking for free

The unique Bavarian Inn is designed to evoke a traditional German country lodge with a working bell tower. The service-oriented atmosphere and seasonal decorations bring many repeat customers to this Michigan gem.

Popular with families, this hotel has an extensive network of indoor swimming pools with water slides and hot tubs with water fountains, plus a massive game and video arcade, indoor mini-golf, and outdoor tennis courts. There is also a fitness center on-site, as well as a lounge with pool tables. Nearly every single part of this kid-friendly lodge and retreat celebrates the German heritage of the family who opened it.

Bavarian Inn Lodge is adjacent to the Bavarian Inn Restaurant, and both buildings plus a few more owned by the same proprietors, dominate the small city of Frankenmuth. The city itself is designed in imitation of a small German town, privileging pedestrian walkways around the village square and alongside the Cass River, which flows through the town. Around the hotel, guests will find the main strip of boutiques and restaurants.

Rooms at the Bavarian Inn Lodge are simple in décor but are named after a German family. The rooms are relatively regular compared to the spectacular German décor and outfits throughout the hotel. Larger rooms are more up-to-date with amenities but all rooms feature the necessary conveniences.

The large, family-friendly Bavarian Inn is an unforgettable hotel in an unforgettable town in Michigan. The entire property features cowbells, woodcarvings, oxen yokes, and alphorns. Plus, families and travelers can experience the greatest section of German cuisine and for the adults, German beer.
