The bar is a proper gathering spot where members and guests share a cold beer after a long week, catch a game, and argue good-naturedly about things that matter.\n\nThe event space handles private parties and receptions with the kind of attentive, personal service you simply cannot get from a banquet chain. Recent guests have praised the staff for making wedding receptions feel relaxed and personal. The Lodge also hosts community events throughout the year, from holiday dinners to charitable drives that funnel real dollars back into Franklin\u2026",
