Lake Lawrence Community Club

Lake Lawrence Community Club occupies a lodge built in 1923 as Edwards Pavilion, when Louie Armstrong and Amber Reichel raised the building from logs felled on the property itself and Frank Noreen constructed its fireplace. The pavilion served Edwards Resort, a fishing and recreation getaway on the lake, and hosted dances there for decades before the resort closed in 1973. The lodge and its grounds then became part of Lake Lawrence Community Club, which now opens the space to the wider community for weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, family reunions, and other private events. The lodge hosts guests with 38 banquet tables, 4 round tables, and 310 folding chairs, along with two separate dressing areas for the bridal party and groom. A full kitchen equipped with a professional range, microwave, 100-cup coffee maker, three refrigerators, and a beverage cooler supports on-site catering. The parking lot holds 300 vehicles under supervised parking, and motorhomes and RVs are welcome to stay overnight. Rentals run from Friday setup through a Saturday event day and a Sunday morning cleanup, giving wedding parties and event hosts a full weekend at the lake.
