About Us

Elks Lodge building with palm trees and sports field nearby.
Elks Lodge building with palm trees and sports field nearby.

Pull up by boat or roll in by car, either way, the Bokeelia Elks Lodge on Pine Island Road greets you the same way: with a cold drink, a warm handshake, and a crowd of people who actually mean it when they say hello. This is a smaller lodge, and that's exactly the point. You know the faces here. You know the stories.

The tiki hut is the crown jewel, hanging right over a stunning water view that reminds you why you moved to Southwest Florida in the first place. Members gather there after a long week, catch a sunset, and swap the kind of conversation that doesn't happen at a chain restaurant. Live entertainment shows up regularly, whether it's a quartet that'll stop you mid-bite or a local act that keeps the night going longer than you planned.

Beyond the good times, this lodge raises serious money for serious causes. From scholarships to veterans' programs, the charitable work here is constant and community-driven. Rated 4.3 out of 5 by members and guests, the lodge earns that score one plate of great food and one good deed at a time.

What We Offer

The lodge runs a full kitchen that punches well above what you'd expect for a membership club. The food draws genuine compliments, not polite ones, and the staff makes sure you feel like a regular even on your first visit. Weekly dinners, themed nights, and special events fill the calendar and give members something to look forward to every month.

Live entertainment is a regular feature, from vocal quartets to local musicians who set the right tone for an evening on the water. The tiki hut serves as the social hub for outdoor gatherings, and the venue is accessible by both road and boat, making it one of the more uniquely situated lodges on the Pine Island waterfront.

Membership opens the door to a full schedule of activities, charitable fundraisers, and community events. Whether you're a recently retired newcomer looking for your people or a longtime local wanting to give back, the lodge has a seat for you at the table.

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.

“To our absent members.” — the Eleven O’Clock Toast
