The Mill at Zehnder Park, on the banks of the Cass River, promises to be the most distinctive of all Frankenmuth retreats. Four suites inspired by pivotal years of our town's history bring Frankenmuth's agricultural heritage to life as a destination for boutique lodging.
The Mill has long been a part of the fabric of Frankenmuth; from the early days milling flour to housing various small businesses.
Now, the doors are opening for an escape only Frankenmuth could provide—with thoughtful design, modern comforts, and unforgettable Zehnder's hospitality. Just minutes from downtown.
