Lakefront Living
Welcome to The Lake Merritt, an Independent Senior Living Community.
What makes us special?
Our caring and friendly staff, our community of residents, our award-winning Mediterranean Art Deco building and our location!
The Lake Merritt is located across the street from Lake Merritt - Oakland’s spectacular 140-acre park and national wildlife sanctuary. The location is just steps away from Bay Area transportation, including BART and AC transit, along with convenient shopping, business and cultural attractions.

- 3.1 miles of shoreline complete with shady, tree-lined boulevards
- Brand-new walking paths and bike ways
- A lakeside park with sailing, dragon boating, rowing
- Bocce and a lawn bowling club
- Seven acres of demonstration and community gardens
