The Bavarian Inn Lodge has plenty, plenty, plenty to do for the whole family! If you have kids,…read morethey will absolutely love this place. There are multiple pools, including an adults-only pool for those looking to relax, a fun indoor waterpark, an arcade packed with games, a sweets shop, several restaurants, and even a ferry ride nearby. There's so much to do that it's easy to spend an entire weekend without running out of activities. Whether you're looking for a family getaway or just a relaxing weekend, the Bavarian Inn Lodge offers something for everyone. We had a great time. They also have an area that you can walk to and watch the Peacocks. As far as the rooms, they are okay. The restroom is tight, with the toilets sitting inches from the shower. Rooms are spacious but smelled a little musky. Luckily, we were able to open up the window. Once we did that it smelled a little better. I think it may be from folks walking around wet and dripping on the carpet.

Very easy to book online and be sure to get a rewards sign up. We did a package that included pizza and pop, a chicken dinner at Zehnders, and a breakfast buffet for both mornings. The hotel is easy to spot next to Bronner's. The theme of gnomes and fairies is so adorable. Staff are awesome! They were so sweet to my daughter and us. Whether it was our waitress, lifeguards at the waterpark, or the front desk. We were able to check in early, so be sure to ask! Our room was one of the older rooms and was one of the ADA compliant rooms, which has larger doorways, no bathtub, a queen bed, and a seating area with a fireplace. The room decorations and everything in it are original. It's very desperately needs to get a facelift. The room was right off of the front desk in waterpark, so walking to the action only took a few steps. I noticed there is no recycling bin. There was a mini refrigerator, but the temperature control wasn't the greatest. Carpet was buckling. The seating area did have a pullout couch, but the couch itself was slippery with the fabric and pretty uncomfortable. Not sure how well house keeping was. There was a Nerf gun instructions paperwork behind one of our bedside nightstands. The water pressure was awesome. The bedding felt clean and the bed overall was comfortable. Housekeeping was able to give us a few more towels off their cleaning cart, which was nice. There is an arcade, but it's definitely not as big as the other hotel down the street. It's very crammed into one room. The pizza and cheese bread was absolutely delicious. Was not expecting that for a kid themed hotel. The breakfast buffet was plentiful, but the buffet items don't change. So the second day we were already kind of sick of the options. They do a nightly movie night in the lobby at 8 PM. If our daughter was older, we definitely would've snuggled up in the lobby to watch the movie. The waterpark was our favorite. Our daughter is just over two, and I was so surprised at how many things she was able to do. She even got to go on a waterslide with us, holding her to go down. Also, she was able to go down a waterslide all by herself, so she thought she was super cool! At the hotel down the street, there's barely anything for a two-year-old to do at their waterpark. She absolutely loved being able to wade in the water with the toddler pool going up to 2 feet. She also was brave enough to go under the big bucket that splashes. We stayed two nights and I think we went to the waterpark at least four or five times and she never got sick of it. There is a security checkpoint for the waterpark. Security will put UV light on your wristband to make sure it's not a fake also go through any bags that you're bringing into the waterpark. Do not bring towel towels, the waterpark provides towels for you. Additionally, they provide lifejackets. There are plenty of tables and chairs all along both water parks, the old side and the new side. The new side wasn't as toddler friendly. There was a small slide she could go down, otherwise there really wasn't much else for her to do. We had a great stay and I think with them updating all of the hotel rooms, I think Zehnder's is the place to be!

This truly breaks my heart to write because we have loved this facility for so many years…read more We have been bringing our children here annually (sometimes multiple times a year) since 2013. But recently in the last few years, we have noticed a shift (some things they may not directly have control over). But this past weekend was bad and we felt it was time to update our review to reflect what is happening now. From the second you walk into their lobby, throughout the hallways, seeping into the rooms, and even penetrating the waterpark areas, all you can smell is that legalized recreational product (I'm sure you can guess what I'm talking about). It's disgusting, lingering scent persisting everywhere. It clings onto your clothing, suitcase, EVERYTHING. And if you get a room that was previously occupied by guests who partake in that, it reeks of it for your whole stay! Adding to this, you can continuously find bandaids, hair and hair extensions floating in the water and lying around on the ground. Many children/teens are running wild (being very disrespectful) with no adult in sight. This place has lost its charm for us and it truly is sad. This was a vacation we looked forward to annually with our children and have created so many beautiful memories but sadly, it no longer does and then to add the price continuously increasing (which we knew would happen). If the smell of recreational products, filthy areas, and disrespectful guests is your vibe, then this is the place for you. What once used to be our favorite has sadly shifted over the last few years.

I've noted better than last year. That's why I'm saying 5 this time. Not a place for kids as I've said. It's usually a 40 and over crowd. Happy hour and breakfast included and wonderful. Maybe get that fireplace working again? We loved that. Overall super clean and comfortable. A very well managed place. Highly recommended. Best spot in town for mature adults.

This is our 2nd year in a row visiting Frankenmuth with family members…read more We tried a new hotel this year and we were very satisfied with our choice. (Last year not so much) The Marv Herzog Hotel sits along the Cass River we chose the River side view, our room had a jacuzzi & small balcony. Our room was very clean with no visible signs of any issues. Bathroom had body wash, shampoo & conditioner all full. Daily room checks with fresh towels & bed makeover. We didn't feel comfortable on the balcony but the large patio was very nice with plenty of room and seating. Included with your stay is breakfast, typical of most hotels. What surprised us was you receive a drink ticket for 2 drinks German beer , wine or soda & hors d'oeuvres for a happy hour. All staff were very friendly & accommodating. Our refrigerator was not cooling the best & they allowed us to store our freezer packs & food in their refrigerator. Greatly appreciated this. Parking garage is tight, we have a truck and it was snug. No pool as this seems to be more of place for couples not necessarily families with small children. Although there were families there. The town offers a free shuttle which we used but most things are within walking distance. I am giving 4 stars because of the refrigerator & I wish we could have set the air conditioner for the fan to run continuously it didn't seem to have that function. & the tv didn't have a sleep mode. Overall I think we will stay here again in the future it has been kept up very well.

Upon arrival , even though we had not been in the area for such a long time I noticed the outside had been freshly painted and appears they are still working on that too. The room was completely remodeled to a modern look. Clean and fresh. A nice sized mini fridge even with a small freezer at the top. Microwave, Nice TV. Shower was clean and hot water worked fast. They have a free breakfast but we typically travel with or own breakfast food so we didn't eat there. The price was very reasonable especially for this tourist town. We would stay here again and will share the new find with friends. Check in girl was very friendly and efficient. Checking out a different girl not as friendly and she had nothing much to say. Room service was efficient also.

My pet peeve is I never have enough pillows & this are new & clean & both hard & soft are provided.

Got great sleep on both nights. The hotel is a little "worn" and the elevator sounds like the floor of an engine plant when it's moving. I came here for a family visit, but this is the perfect tourist location for doing the tourist thing. I had a (mostly) phenomenal staff experience, honestly this is probably a 3 star property on its facility shape, but the staff just elevated it in my book.

Location is terrific, prices are reasonable, and Myra is just a wonderful host. I recently went to Frankenmuth with my wife and 6 mo. old to meet up with both sets of grandparents for a weekend of fun and excitement. Leading up to the trip it was my job to find us a place to stay. All hotels within walking distance to Main St. are ~$200 each night where this B & B was much, much lower. There were 3 bedrooms and we were able to get all 3 for the visit which worked out perfectly. There is one bath upstairs but an emergency one on the main floor that is considered Myra's but she typically doesn't mind. There is also a nice 2nd story patio that was really relaxing at night and during the early morning hours. Myra provides all the fixings that a typical B & B provides but for those big breakfast types, there are places within walking distance to eat. I WILL be back staying at Tuscola B & B, just when is the question. Everyone in our party were very satisfied and are hoping that next year will work out for each side of the family.

The staff we encountered during our visit were friendly and helpful, especially Tracy. Cons: The advertised sofa bed is actually a trundle. My youngest was planning on sleeping on it, but once she pulled it out, she found stains and food crumbs. Very off-putting, so she decided to sleep on top of the couch instead. Upon entering the room, there was an unpleasant musty smell. I asked a lovely young lady who was part of the housekeeping team about it and she told us that it's been that way since a man had been living there who worked in town. We tried to mask the smell with some freshener spray she offered, but it only dissipated after a short time and returned. My family and me only got minimal sleep as you can hear EVERY sound through the walls and hallway. Snoring, yelling, etc. I personally would not stay here again. For the amount of money I paid for the night, I expected more. I can only assume you are paying for the location.
