Frank Grant, writing in its National Register nomination, states:
The I.O.O.F. Hall, built ca. 1912, is a fine example of the typical Main Street lodge hall found in many rural communities. Built during a period of optimism and growth in Stevensville, the building suggests that members assumed the lodge would continue to play the significant role in community life that it had played during the frontier era.
The building later served as town hall, library, and firehouse for Stevensville.[2]
It was built where the former Wells Building had stood, until destroyed in the 1905 fire in downtown Stevensville.
