Booking your room online with the Bavarian Inn Lodge just got easier!

Every New Year is another opportunity for people to make big changes, improve ourselves, and live to the fullest. The team here at the Bavarian Inn Lodge is no different. We are constantly reinventing ourselves and searching for ways to create more value for our guests, employees, and community.

Our first big change for the New Year is an upgrade to a brand new system to book your room reservations online with the Bavarian Inn Lodge! Booking online has never been easier! Click Here to see what we mean.

Even if you’re not planning a trip any time soon, we encourage you to check it out and familiarize yourself with the process. There are so many new features to help you find exactly what you want here at the Lodge: Room types with images, Feature Filters, Price Range Selector, and so much more. We’ve even made it easier for our Convention Goers, Sport Teams, and Wedding Guests by including a place for you to enter your special code to access the rooms we’ve set up for your particular group. And best of all, the new system is MUCH easier on the eyes.

We’re looking forward to creating enjoyable experiences for you and your family. It’s just a click away!
