Closed Franklin Inn on Durkee

Located in Appleton’s downtown historic district, this beautifully landscaped inn with turret & original interior preserves the elegance of the 19th century, but adds the amenities of the 21st.

Would you live in a home that had once been an old barn? For me...Yes, yes, yes! This has been my dream since I was 19 years old. Hopefully someday dreams come true. ❤

How cool is this to be able to fly into Appleton from Chicago in their own private 6 seat airplane? It was our pleasure to host your group at the Franklin Inn on Durkee Bed and Breakfast, Appleton, WI. Sorry that your team didn't get the win last night at Lambeau Field. Our Packer guests were a little happier than your group this morning at breakfast. However, you were good sports still! We hope to see you at your next Packer trip!

This past weekend Franklin Inn on Durkee Bed and Breakfast, Appleton, WI had a full house for the New York Giant game. Breakfast was in two shifts to get everyone in the dining room. I snapped a photo at this serving time. The family in the foreground traveled from Germany for the game. They plan to return to us again next yr. They are devoted fans who even convinced their German friends to cheer "Go Pack, Go". The green and gold colored souvenirs traveled back in their suitcases for everyone to wear in Germany. Their souvenir caps had a green "G" on them. Makes sense to me...Green Bay/Germany!

This fall we had a great time hosting these 5 couples for a murder mystery event at the Franklin Inn on Durkee Bed and Breakfast, Appleton, WI. They checked in for an overnight stay in their street clothing. Quickly, they changed identities and clothing and became part of the Fame, Money, Murder event. Yes, they solved, "Who Dun It".

Appleton just had their annual College Ave street festival called Octoberfest. Franklin Inn on Durkee Bed and Breakfast, Appleton, WI enjoyed this group of 6 staying with here for 2 days. The women have known each other since high school. They enjoyed Appleton's License to Cruise, craft booths, shopping, food vendors, and street bands. Best of all was to see them laughing, chatting, relaxing and enjoying a glass of wine in the bed and breakfast's common area. We hope to see you again next year.

This lovely couple's children bought them a gift certificate from our Franklin Inn on Durkee Bed and Breakfast, Appleton, WI so they could celebrate their 50th anniversary here. Their day began with tickets to the Packer/Detroit Lions game and ended by relaxing in the beautiful Petit Chateau Suite. Their breakfast was our signature Sausage and Spinach Four Cheese Quiche, Croissant a L'Orange, Rhubarb Tapioca, and Oh So Good Hot Fruit. Bonnie couldn't have selected a more perfect outfit for her stay. I just loved how her outfit matched the color scheme of the suite! I enjoyed them and was honored to be part of their celebration. May we all be blessed with 50 yrs. of marriage.
