@campbellsellsthebay: Once upon a time, Lake Merritt sparkled with grand Victorian mansions right along the shore. Today, only one is still standing, the Camron-Stanford House, built in 1876. It’s the last little time capsule from Oakland’s lakeside Gilded Age, quietly watching the city grow up around it. Follow along for more East Bay gems and neighborhood stories.

The Camron Stanford house museum is at risk of shutting down! If we can keep our lease, we will be fundraising to reopen the museum. We should find out this week! 🙏

And did you know before the indigenous people began living here, the lake Merritt area was 6 meters under the ocean?

They trained civil war soldiers near by. There were at least 2 training camps in the 1860s.

I would love to tour it! I’ve lived in the Berkeley/Oakland the majority of my life and never been inside this mansion! I didn’t know you could tour it. I thought it was only for event rental!
