Step into the enchanting world of Historic Palm Lodge, where Old Florida elegance meets lush botanical beauty. This 2-story historic home features an expansive porch, soaring foyer ceilings, and a clever layout that allows spaces to feel either grand and open or intimate and cozy—perfect for any occasion.

A place where history whispers through the trees, this magical property tells the story of Kentucky Colonel Henry Wallace Johnston., a Kentucky native known as the “Wizard of Palm Lodge Grove.” His legacy lives on through the hundreds of tropical fruit and flower specimens he cultivated here—many of which remain one-of-a-kind in America.

Today, Historic Palm Lodge is more than just a venue, it's the perfect setting for memories of a lifetime. This estate transports you to a simpler time, a world away from the city’s noise, while remaining accessible for guests and production teams. Contact us today to schedule a tour and step into a living piece of Florida’s history.

A historically designated property in the heart of the Redland district.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING...

I can only say, please go and stand under the banyan trees! Our wedding ceremony couldn't have been in a better place. This place will carry one of the most special moments of our lives! We are eternally grateful because we couldn't have a better experience: an experience that you only live once.

The magical, charming, and gorgeous Historic Palm Lodge went above and beyond for us!

This venue is one of a kind, there is nothing else like it. My wedding guests said my wedding was not only the best but one of the most unique they have ever been to. The gorgeous gardens and the historic house is just to die for! HPL will forever be a place I consider home and I look forward to hosting future events there.

One of the standout features of their service was their flexibility in all aspects of the process, especially when they opened their doors for us on unconventional timing and days, allowing us to craft our wedding celebration at our own pace. This level of accommodation not only made the planning process stress-free but also created an atmosphere of warmth and understanding at a human level that we hardly encounter while looking for wedding venues.

They made our event planning process stress-free!

Thanks to the support and dedication of Elizabeth and Michelle, our dream celebration became a reality with no dramas. Despite the miles between us, communication was seamless, and they accommodate to our multiple zoom meeting requests and video calls, giving us peace of mind and comfort when we most needed it. They provided invaluable insights, suggesting local vendors and unique touches that helped us to add an extra layer of charm to our celebration.

We could not recommend Historic Palm Lodge enough!

From the moment I drove through the grand white gates to the entrance of the house, I knew I found my wedding venue. The Historic Palm Lodge is the 1st and last venue I visited. I didn't need to see any more places because I KNEW I found the one. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. My guests also loved the venue. My wedding was so perfect and couldn't have been possible without hosting it at the Historic Palm Lodge.

Literally the most beautiful, open, spacious, garden ever!

Historic Palm lodge exists to be a magical venue for enchanting events. We invite you to celebrate your story in the unforgettable setting of our gardens and historic home.
