Blue Springs Elks Lodge #2509: Your Home for Community, Camaraderie, Charity

"We got married on 8/23/2025. Logan was helpful anytime we called or texted him. The space we had to clean twice sadly. There were dead bugs all over the floor the day before and the day of. The $8 per table cloth rental was a bummer as many of them had stains even tho they were fresh from the dry cleaners and still wrapped up. There was only 1 suite available so the men weren’t able to be at the hall during the day. The suite was small and tight and being in August it was very hot and then the AC panel wasn’t accessible to us and the AC kicked off and it was very very hot with 7 women in a small room all doing hair and makeup at the same time. The sofa in the suite smelt very bad and was destroyed and should have been thrown out awhile ago. The ADA bathroom needs major cleaning and painting and full on repairs. Many of the chandeliers in the main hall had damages that were pointed out by many guests. We had 140 guests not including the wedding party itself. The hall was aware that the vendor style refrigerator has problems and didn’t notify myself or my husband. And a relative was helping with cleanup and putting away leftover food when the door malfunctioned and ripped her fingernail in half and almost completely off. Luckily I had a first aid kid in the bridal suite. When I notified the other on staff employee she said they were aware it had problems. I told her it hurt a guest and if they knew it needed to be fixed they should repair it so no one else gets hurt. She didn’t seem to care much. We were informed that 8 guests could sit at each table. Which wasn’t a wise idea as many guests would have to sit half on top of each other so 6 to a table was much more comfortable. I will say in spite of all the things that didn’t go right. The $2,200 for the entire space for the entire day and set up the day before. Plus Logan being on call anytime. It made it easier."

"Probably the largest and nicest lodge I’ve ever been to. 8 RV spots for members with a 2 week limit. Lots of activities and plenty of nights with food. People are very nice and the lodge is only minutes from downtown."

"Great Venue. We enjoyed the Frontline Fly Tying Gala!"

"Beautiful place for a wedding and reception. Logan, Maria and Lynne were so easy to work with and went out of their way to make our daughter's day special. A rainy night put a damper on the outside wedding so they graciously opened up the rest of the room so we could have the wedding inside. The sun came out and allowed for a few outdoor pictures on the beautiful grounds. Also very affordable."

"Great accommodations. Beautiful lodge. Friendly people. The one thing that has changed from last year is their camping area rules have changed. You can only stay for 14 days and then you have to leave for a day and then you can come back if there is room. They did put in new Electrical and curb stops that are nice. We come every year to visit family. The lodge puts on some really good meals. Thank you."
