John Anderson Lodge

The John Anderson Lodge was an historic home built around 1886 at 71 Orchard Lane in Ormond Beach, Florida, United States. It was built for Ormond Beach promoter John Anderson (1853–1911), who was one of the first owners of the Ormond Hotel. The lodge was originally used by employees of the hotel and to host parties. In its later years it became a single family residence. The lodge was built in the Adirondack Rustic architectural style on pilings and featured vertical palm tree wall construction. Palm trees are typically inappropriate for building construction due to their soft and fibrous consistency. The designers of the lodge used native Florida materials to blend into the context of the local natural environment.
