About Us

Nestled at 1206 N Beeline Hwy in the pine-scented heights of Payson, Arizona, the Payson Elks Lodge #2154 stands as a beacon of brotherhood, patriotism, and small-town heart. Since planting roots in this Rim Country gem, we've been more than just a lodge—we're the heartbeat of community spirit. Picture this: crisp mountain air, laughter echoing through our halls, and tables groaning under home-cooked feasts that bring strangers together as family.

As proud Elks, we live the motto 'Elks Care, Elks Share.' From hosting free Thanksgiving dinners that warm Navy vets wintering in Tonto Basin RVs to flag ceremonies that honor our heroes, we're deeply committed to veterans, youth, and those in need. Our 4.6-star rating from 115 reviews reflects the passion of our members and staff, even amidst the occasional kitchen hiccup or parking mix-up—because real community means real stories, triumphs, and yes, a few dry chickens along the way.

Step through our doors and feel the genuine Payson welcome: cold drinks flowing, live music thumping, and bonds forged that last a lifetime. Whether you're a local rancher, a snowbird escaping Montana chills, or a first-time visitor, the Payson Elks is your home away from home. Call (928) 474-2572 or visit paysonelks.com to join the lodge, attend an event, or simply grab a seat at the bar. In a world of fleeting connections, we're building legacies—one elk at a time.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"I'd like to thanks the members and staff for hosting a free Thanksgiving dinner. I'm a Navy Veteran staying in Tonto Basin, Arizona with my girlfriend for the winter from Montana. Stay in a small RV makes it difficult at best to bake a turkey. Big Thanks from Marilyn and I to everyone today from the Elks Lodge that took the time to prepare, cook, decorate and clean. In my opinion The Eks Lodge truly represents community spirt and made this vet and his girlfriend feel welcome. Great job Elks!!!"

"Attended an event last night. The servers and staff were great but the food? 🤢🤢🤢🤢 Chicken was dry and no seasonings. Green beans tastes like they were poured out of a can and served with boiled bacon. Green beans had no seasoning and didn't taste a hint of bacon so I'm not sure they cooked it together. My son had French fries with chicken nuggets. The fries tasted like freezer burnt fries with zero seasoning. I didn't try his chicken nuggets. The cinnamon with apples was bland. I was so upset I spent $30 for this."
— Amanda Bishop
"This old man claiming to be the owner yelled at me for parking there for a few minutes even though it was an empty lot. I do not suggest supporting this "business" by any means after the way they treat me and my friends"

"The Elks Club put on a Veterans Day Banquet and it was FANTASTIC. The food was great. The band was very good. The Hall was decorated very nice and the servers were very nice and friendly. Had a very good time. Glad I decided to go."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"We stayed 2 nights in our RV. They have some 50amp &30amp sites with water. Most sites were fairly level. There are a lot of goat heads (a thorny plant) in the RV area. I would recommend wearing hard soled shoes. Everyone in the lodge was so friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed our time visiting with the fellow Elk's."
