Lodge #990 runs a full calendar of food, events, and community programming that keeps the doors busy most days. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are served regularly, cooked and served by a dedicated group of volunteers who treat the dining room like their own kitchen. The menu is straightforward and satisfying, the kind of food that makes you want to come back on a Tuesday.
Beyond the meals, the lodge hosts live music nights, special events open to the public, and a full bar where the atmosphere is relaxed and the staff is genuinely glad you stopped in. The natural spring pool and park trails out back add an outdoor dimension that no other lodge in the region can match. Whether you're a longtime Elk, a curious neighbor, or an RV traveler just passing through Gainesville, there's a reason to visit and a reason to return.
