We are always delighted to receive stories to share about great experiences at the Bavarian Inn. This one is unique as it originates from a staff member that was kind enough to record this wonderful event. A picture is worth a thousand words. 10 year old Martin is probably one of, Bavarian Inn’s own, Linda Lee’s youngest fans. This comes to you from a veteran staff member at the Bavarian Inn Restaurant, Manager in our Hospitality Department, Kathy Walstad:
Today I met 10 year old Martin in the lobby. He was asking me if Linda Lee was here today. When I said yes his eyes lit up! He said “she is my favorite accordion player.” He said last year she played for his 10th birthday and he has an autographed picture from her that he keeps in his Bible! I brought Linda to the table and Martin was in awe. His parents said when he was a baby he wouldn’t go to sleep unless Linda’s CD was playing. After hearing all of this I needed to do more. I went downstairs to find some kind of Linda Lee keepsakes and unfortunately I couldn’t. But I did find a red accordion (just like Linda’s). I got a permanent marker and Linda and I went back to the table. Martin opened his accordion and we could see that the first thing he noticed is that it was red as he looked at his and then Linda’s. Linda then signed the accordion for Martin.

I’ve tried to think of some great catch phrases for reasons to come to Frankenmuth to finish up your shopping. All I could come up with is, Why Not? “Shop local” are strong words in today’s struggling economy and in small towns like ours. It is not only important to our community’s growth, but also to continue traditions in making Frankenmuth feel magical this time of year as it comes alive with all the holiday hustle and bustle. If it has been a while since your last visit to Frankenmuth (or perhaps you have never had the opportunity visit), we invite you to experience the Christmas wonder that our city provides. Below are suggestions for a one or two day shopping adventure. Read the rest of this entry »
I just read this great article on the Washington Post about “Michigan’s Little Bavaria” and felt inclined to share it with all of you that may not have read it. It’s a wonderful story about Hilary Krieger’s adventure through town with all the magical lights, Christmas decorations, horse drawn carriages and Frankenmuth’s Famous Chicken. Continue reading this very well put together story through Frankenmuth.

Each and every year the Bavarian Inn Lodge cuts down and sets up two large Christmas trees for our guests. One located in the Conference Center Lobby and the other in Front Desk Lobby. We like to brag that we have the biggest trees in Frankenmuth, I’m not sure that is true or not, but we do have some very large trees decorated in lights and ornaments for your viewing. Keep reading for more information about these 2-trees. Read the rest of this entry »
