Gardnerville Elks Lodge #2670: Family, Freedom, Community

"One of the nicest lodges we've ever had the pleasure of attending an event at. The lodge members take great pride in this place and treat everyone is though they are family. A wonderful experience in an amazingly beautiful setting. Past Exalted Ruler, Mary E. Retterer memorial service was held Herr 24 September 2022."

"5 spaces 50 amp electric. Water at site 5 if the camper in site 5 doesn’t have it hooked up to their RV 🤣. They probably don’t know that it is shared. The Elks RV camper app says there is a dump 3 miles down the road but I am not sure where it is. It doesn’t show up on RV Dump app. $20 per night 7 night max. We were there on Monday lodge was not open."

"Easy in and out , new asphalt, has water and power hookups , no sewage though. No shade either lol, buy its hard to beat the price, we simply stayed in the rv area, never went into the buildings."

"Overnight Pit-Stop That Didn’t Quite Hit the Mark at Tahoe/Douglas Elks Lodge This past Friday night my girlfriend (an Elk member) and I pulled our 32-footer into Tahoe/Douglas Elks Lodge #2670 at 1227 Kimmerling Rd. We’d had a long day on the road and were looking forward to a cold beer and maybe some lodge grub before calling it a night. Unfortunately, the building was dark and the doors were locked—no posted hours, and no one answered the phone—so our plans for a friendly lodge evening fizzled on arrival. First impressions of the property itself are positive: the grounds look well kept, and the lodge façade is inviting. Just inside the entrance, five paved RV pads sit off to the left, each with 30-amp electric and water. We didn’t need the hookups this trip, but it’s nice to know they’re there. The trade-off is location: those pads back right up to Kimmerling Road, and steady traffic through the evening translated into noticeable road noise inside the rig. Because check-in wasn’t an option, my girlfriend left a courtesy voicemail letting the lodge know we were overnighting. From there we headed into Minden for dinner and returned late just to sleep. The lot felt safe and was reasonably level, but the traffic rumble persisted until well after midnight. By morning we were back on the highway before ever meeting lodge staff. Bottom line: If you need a quick, paved overnight with power and water, these pads do the job—just be ready for traffic noise and be sure to call ahead if you’re hoping to enjoy lodge hospitality. We’d stop again in a pinch, but next time we’ll confirm opening hours first (or look for a quieter spot a little farther off the road)."

"The VFW provided a lovely Holiday dinner. Many thanks!"
