The 10th Campus in the UC system, UC Merced is one of the newest Universities in California.  The first research institution built in the 21st century in the US, UC Merced offers students and faculty the opportunity to be pioneers in their chosen fields.

Just 27 miles from Lake Don Pedro, families visiting the campus, professors who help educate its students and the students themselves often visit its crystal blue waters and miles of unpopulated hills.

Now the UC Merced community can own a piece of Lake Don Pedro.  The Lake Don Pedro Golf Community offers Deerwood custom homes and Golf Villas of various sizes where you can relax and enjoy resort-like amenities, a championship golf course, endless water sports and of course, breathtaking views.

Presented by The Deerwood Corporation, the homes at Lake Don Pedro are a rare retreat from university housing.  Providing an off-campus housing alternative, the homes and Golf Villas at Lake Don Pedro are waiting to welcome you and your family.
