We just did an overnight visit... so we did not use the water park facility... which is really something! The hotel is VERY LARGE. So plan to do a lot of walking between indoor dining, front desk, room and restaurant. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The walk to the shopping area is lovely... crossing a covered bridge on property. The hotel is geared towards families and those arriving to visit Bronners Christmas. The hotel is very clean and offered a comfortable room.

We had a great time! Rented a scooter for my Mom for 2 days at a very reasonable price. The hotel immediately gave a new one when there was an issue! The pool, waterpark, and funzone were all fantastic. We just wish there was coffee in the rooms, instead of the centralized locatiins. Overall we wiuld DEFINITELY come back and stay here!

The Bavarian Inn was amazing! Even though we didn't have kids and weren't at the hotel for the water park, there was still so much to see at the hotel and around it that we had a great time. The personal touch of suites having local people and their history on the walls really touched us. Our suite was very comfortable... loved the whirlpool! Staff were amazing, caring and always interested in us. The local restaurant was good, and the brunch we attended was great food!
