Dress Code
The Severance Lodge Club dress code honors a long-standing tradition, meant to uphold the special experience of enjoying a meal in the Club's dining room. Originally defined as "jackets required," we have adjusted the level of formality to meet the times while staying true to our roots. We appreciate your adherence to this tradition and look forward to hosting you for a magical evening on the lake.

Men, women, teenagers, and children are all required to abide by our dress code. Men should wear long pants, collared shirts, and dress shoes or oxfords/loafers. Women should wear comparable outfits, such as either a dress, skirt, or pair of nice pants with a blouse-type top.
