Lodge #823 opens its doors to far more than card-carrying Elks members. The hall is available for private parties, club meetings, memorial services, and community gatherings, offering a spacious, affordable venue with the kind of built-in hospitality you cannot rent from a banquet hall chain.
The RV park on the grounds is a standout amenity, offering safe overnight and extended stays within walking distance of I-205 access. It is a practical, budget-friendly option for travelers who value security and a genuine community atmosphere over resort-style amenities. Guests consistently note the friendliness of the people they meet here.
Beyond the venue and the RV spots, the lodge runs active charitable programming including food basket distribution, holiday giving drives, and support for local veterans. Members gain access to regular social events, bingo nights, and a network of Elks lodges across the country, making Lodge #823 a home base that travels well.
