Pull up a stool at Stockton Elks Lodge #218 and you'll understand within minutes why this place earns a 4.6-star rating from people who've been around. Located on Thornton Road in north Stockton, the lodge sits on grounds spacious enough to host a full RV park with 30/50-amp hookups, a courtyard, and an outdoor pool that members actually use.

The bar is the social center of it all. Guests who stop in for a couple of cocktails routinely report being treated like they've been regulars for years. On band nights, Crystal Image Band takes the floor and the dancing starts early. The crowd mixes longtime members with fresh faces, and the conversation flows as freely as the drinks.

This is a lodge that does the small things right: a hot breakfast on weekend mornings, a welcoming staff that knows your name by the second visit, and the kind of genuine hospitality that no marketing department can manufacture. Lodge #218 has been a cornerstone of Stockton's civic life, and every event on the calendar is proof that the Elks tradition still has plenty of life left in it.

What We Offer

The lodge offers far more than a meeting hall. The RV park features spacious pull-through and back-in sites with full 30/50-amp electrical service, making it a reliable overnight stop for travelers passing through the Central Valley or locals looking for a convenient getaway base.

Inside, members and eligible guests enjoy a full-service bar, a dining room serving home-style breakfasts and meals, and a banquet space available for private events and celebrations. The outdoor pool and courtyard give the property a resort-like feel that most lodges simply don't have.

Regular live entertainment, including performances by the Crystal Image Band, keeps the social calendar packed. Charitable programs, community outreach, and member-exclusive benefits round out everything the lodge provides, making an Elks membership one of the most practical and rewarding decisions a Stockton resident can make.

"Nice little place to stay for a RV hookup. Had a great breakfast while we were there. Wish they would clean up the dog area. We finally found someone to clean up our area behind RV. Only took a couple minutes it's nice to be able to help out the Elks."

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
