The Historical Franklin House


The Historical Franklin House is located on Franklin St. - Frankenmuth's historical street.

Drink coffee on the front porch and watch the horse-drawn carriages gallop by or spend a lazy afternoon in the large, bay-window living room overlooking Franklin St. This space is newly remodeled featuring a sprawling white marble master bath, large front porch with seating, mid-century modern furnishings, and cozy living areas.

Great experience
We had a great stay! The home was very accommodating for our family of 4 (2 kids under 3 years old). The house is very close to downtown and would have been walkable if it wasn’t too cold and snowy. We got a few inches of snow over night and the owner shoveled the snow on the steps, walkway, and driveway before we were awake! The home is in a safe neighborhood. We will stay here again if we visit Frankenmuth in the future!

Beautiful Historic Spacious Stay
Absolutely loved how quiet this beautiful home is. Thought of every detail, wonderful blackout blinds, chargers, kitchen. Bathroom was stunning. Loved the outdoor spaces on the balcony and the front porch. You could watch the horse carriages drive by in the evening.

Amazing stay :)
My boyfriend and I stayed for two nights and enjoyed every second of it! The house is obviously old but has been well maintained and upgraded where needed. We were a little skeptical about sleeping apartment style above the family who owns it, but we could barely ever hear them and there was a ton of privacy. Super close to downtown so we were able to walk everywhere and enjoy the fall weather! Thank you for having us, we’d definitely come back to stay again :)

Cute little early 1900's home
If you ever wanted to experience living in an early 1900's home this is for you. With a lot of original things the home was built with - windows, doors, door knobs, etc. it was quite a treat. On the downside the floors and doors were a little loud and the windows were frozen on the inside. All in all, I really liked it. It was great being to walk downtown.

Charming Historic Home in the Heart of Frankenmuth
We had a relaxing stay at this charming historic house in Frankenmuth! The property was clean, thoughtfully maintained, and full of character. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and at ease. The house perfectly blends historic charm with modern comforts, making it an ideal spot for a relaxing getaway.One of the best features is its prime location—most of Frankenmuth's iconic attractions, restaurants, and shops are just a short walk away. It was so convenient to stroll to Zehnder's, the Bavarian Inn, and the charming downtown boutiques without worrying about parking.Whether you're sipping coffee on the cozy porch or exploring the nearby sights, this property feels like a true home away from home. We highly recommend this rental to anyone looking for an authentic Frankenmuth experience.

Fall Weeken Getaway
The location is in a great spot. Not too far to walk to town and not in a crowded area. Everything was very good, but not exceptional. It did not feel very private. From the open stairs in the kitchenette one can easily hear the people downstairs. I wouldn’t consider staying for longer than a weekend.

Beautiful historical home conveniently located
Beautiful upstairs apartment one block from main street! I was able to walk everywhere that I wanted to go see. The only thing that would make it perfect would be an expanded kitchen or the use of a grill. Host was very quick with his responses.

Great place
Everything was great what a beautiful place. Our dog however couldn’t relax. There’s a yard but not fenced in so we had to but him on a lead. He didn’t like it. I would stay there again if it’s just my husband and I but not with a golden retriever
