About Us

View of boats on the water from a deck. — Elks Lodge
View of boats on the water from a deck.

Pull up a boat or pull into the lot on Country Club Drive, either way, you'll find the same thing: a cold drink, a hot plate, and people who actually know your name. The Rochester Elks Lodge sits right on the water, and that lake view from the dining room is the kind of thing members quietly brag about to their out-of-town guests.

Friday nights here have their own rhythm. The posted dinners draw a steady crowd, portions are generous, and prices stay honest. Then there's Taco Tuesday, which has become something of a local institution. Lance behind the bar has earned a genuine reputation for his margaritas, and regulars will tell you straight up that they're the best in the county.

The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks has been part of American civic life since 1868, and this lodge carries that tradition forward without making it feel like a museum piece. The golf course is open and well-kept, the docks welcome boaters, and the calendar stays full. Rated 4.4 out of 5 by members and guests, this is a place that earns its stars through consistency and genuine community investment.

What We Offer

The lodge runs a full-service bar and dining room with rotating dinner specials posted each week on Facebook. Friday night dinners are the anchor event, offering hearty meals at prices that won't make you wince. Taco Tuesday brings the energy mid-week, and Lance's margaritas are reason enough to show up.

On the outdoor side, boat docks give lake visitors direct access, making this the rare dining spot you can literally sail to. The golf course is maintained and open to members, offering a well-kept round without the country club price tag or the stuffiness.

Beyond food and recreation, the lodge supports local charities, youth programs, and veterans' causes through the national Elks network. Membership opens the door to all of it, including events, discounts, and a community of people invested in making Rochester, Indiana a better place to live.

A Proud Heritage

The Elks gave America
Flag Day.

Long before it was a national observance, the Order set aside June 14th to honor the flag. Patriotism has always been one of our cardinal principles, and every lodge meeting still closes the same way it has for over a century.
