Vic Verchereau welcomes Martha Zehnder Kaczynsk, who is the Vice President of the Bavarian Inn.
The William (Tiny) Zehnder, Jr. family owns the Bavarian Inn of Frankenmuth. Tiny’s family purchased Fischer’s Hotel in 1950. Tiny left farming, and he and his young wife, Dorothy (a former waitress at Fischer’s), became the managers of the new business. In his autobiographical book, Tiny wrote that “Dorothy and I started the Bavarian Inn with huge debt, and we built up the business with additions over 30 years.” Tiny encouraged many other Frankenmuth businesses to either build or remodel their buildings in the Bavarian style. Over time one of the Midwest's favorite destinations was born.
With over 3 million visitors to the town the Zehnder family is busy keeping things new and exciting while keeping the old traditions honored! Vic Vercherereau sits down with Martha Zehnder-Kacynski to hear all about the history, the amazing success and the bold plans for an exciting major expansion. Slip into your swimsuit and gather the family to make some Michigan memories on this edition of Michigan Corners!
