The Carson Mansion is a large Victorian house located in Old Town, Eureka, California. It is one of the most written about and photographed Victorian houses in California.  Originally the home of one of Northern California's first major lumber barons, William Carson.  It now houses the Ingomar Club, a private members-only club, since 1950.  It is easily seen from the public street and sidewalk, but the home and grounds are private.

On May 18, 2013, Redwood Forest Chapter, NSDAR, celebrated their ninetieth anniversary.  California State Society DAR state officers and district representatives were present at the celebration held at the historic Ingomar Club.
