Franz Lodge / Downtown * Sleeps 15+ * Groups Welcome! * Hot Tub * Pets

FRANZ LODGE WELCOMES YOU!
Are you wanting to be as close to town as possible? At Franz Lodge, you can leave your car parked in your private garage and take just a 5 minute walk into town where you'll be surrounded by all of the Bavarian beauty that Leavenworth has to offer.

NOTE:
We also have Hans Lodge available next door in case you have additional guests or you need to check other dates. Hans Lodge is listing # 1789428.

This amazing & very modern lodge will sleep up to 15+ guests! With its 5 private suites each with their own private bath and the downstairs bunk room space will surely become your "go to" lodge when coming to visit Leavenworth's Oktoberfest celebration (that's just a 1/2 block away), Christmas lighting festival, Spring & Summer wine tours, the Bavarian Ice Festival, Taste of Leavenworth and so much more!

Not only is Franz Lodge a great center spot for all of the cities activities, but it will also be your place of respite when you find yourself on the upper deck, dipped into the hot tub and looking at the views with no end. Inside you'll love the large open floor plan where you can stay in touch with everyone's conversations, challenge your friends to a good game of Shuffleboard, or just curl up on the couch with one of the many fine wines available from your shopping trip in Downtown.

Interested in eating in? The Chef's kitchen has everything that you'll need to feed your army or take it out on the deck with the double BBQ that'll have everyone fed in no time. And if you forgotten anything for your trip, a minute walk to Dan's Grocery will supply you with what you need.

Additionally, just a short block away and you'll find yourself at the park with trails following the Wenatchee River. Love bike rides? Just 2 doors down you and your group can rent bikes at "Arlberg Sports Haus" and take a days adventure around Leavenworth. If by chance you need to charge your vehicle while on your adventures, you can do that right across the street from Franz Lodge where there are several charging stations.

Need more space? Take a look at Hans Lodge right next door (listing # 1789428). A mirror image of Franz Lodge where you can bring an additional 15+ guests! Please take a look at the Hans Lodge calendar for availability.

Husbands 55th birthday surprise
We loved being able to have the entire family together to celebrate my husband’s birthday. The house was amazing and we loved the location. The only issue we had was the hvc units did not like to work and were a bit of a frustration. The ease and size of the kitchen was amazing and useful due to multiple dietary restrictions.

Ideal spot for a large group
The house was exactly what we hoped it would be. Comfortable with enough rooms for several families and an awesome bunkbed layout for the kids. Being situated right next to the village is what really made our stay great.

Perfect Surprise Birthday Weekend
I surprised my wife for her birthday with a weekend stay with friends/family at Franz Lodge and it was absolutely perfect! The location is conveniently close to town and provided us with an amazing view of the mountains. The house was cozy and comfortable, with all the amenities you could ask for: a hot tub, comfortable beds, immaculate sheets, and an outdoor BBQ to grill for dinner. We have stayed in many other places in Leavenworth but none of them compared to Franz Lodge. Highly recommend!

much needed getaway
We took the managers of our restaurant group away for a very needed getaway. The kitchen is very well appointed even for restaurant folks, and the house offers the perfect layout for everyone gathering as well as everyone having their own space to chill out. Beds were super comfortable and hot tub was perfect. The proximity to town was another huge bonus, especially because during our visit we had a major snow dump and no one wanted to drive. The property manager answered our questions very promptly. Thanks so much!

Wow! Perfect!
Had a full house of friends for a birthday party/ day hike through the enchantments. The lodge is located in downtown Leavenworth next to a grocery store and all the restaurants and shops. Friday evening we went for a fabulous dinner out. Saturday ran/hiked the entire enchantments and had pizza delivered. The hot tub was amazing and we loved the star wars statues. Check in/out was a breeze. Highly recommended for larger groups.

Yearly family get-together
It was very easy to book, find , and settle in. The property is very close to downtown making it easy for walks and shopping. Each very comfortable bedroom had its own bathroom, and the bunk room was perfect. We want to know where you got the mattresses! My only thoughts are that the sound echoed through the entire house especially with our kids playing games downstairs while we tried to talk upstairs. I would suggest some safety bars in one of the showers for us oldsters. These are minor suggestions for a great house!!
