Elks Lodge

The Sweet Home Elks lodge is one of my favorite lodges to visit. We’ve come down here and stayed in their RV spots two years in a row during the Oregon Jamboree. The RV spaces are decent with both power and water hookups that will work with most RVs from smaller trailers to large class As. Unfortunately there are no sewer hookups, but there’s a few dump stations on the way home for us so no big deal — and for $ 10 a night I can’t complain! That’s WAY cheaper than it is to dry camp on the jamboree grounds. Only down side is a lengthy (almost 2 mile) walk or having to drive and park to get to the stage area.
Inside the lodge the bartender and other local Elks members are always very friendly and talkative. The bar is fantastic with great bar food and an awesome selection of beer with great prices to go with it! The night we arrived this year we planned to barbeque at our trailer. When we stopped in the bar to grab a beer, I couldn’t help but notice the $ 3 burger and chicken sandwich. It was worth a few bucks to give it a try. The burger turned out to be one of the best I’ve had in a long time! The chicken was great too! In total, our bar bill after a few drinks and dinner was less than $ 25 with a decent tip!
If you’re an Elk — come visit this lodge when you’re in town. You won’t regret it! Not an Elk? Consider becoming one! We’ve been members more than 10 years and have thoroughly enjoyed the options being an Elk members opens up to us.

Lot’s of re-​modeling. There is a very rustic & comfy bar with all the usual games, pull table and shuffle board. Excellent dining room! A friendly member, Jodi, said the hamburgers are really good too! Nice and well organized weight room. If you travel by motorhome or pull a trailer, they have very nice, private campsites on gravel surrounded by tall trees with electric & water hookups at $ 10/​night. The shower facilities are well maintained, nicely decorated and feel very homey. My wife and I relaxed on the 2^nd story patio with grand views of the Cascade Mountains, an IPA in-​hand and all our Apple devices received strong 4G signals. This Elks lodge is Home Sweet Home away from our Portland home – we Go-​By-​Airstream trailer. Now let’s see where the hiking trails are, so we can enjoy the great outdoors, looking forward to hiking Iron Mountain (300 species of wildflowers and trees, best time to go is mid to late July.

Typical non renovated décor, but very nice and clean and man is the beer cheap.
