Charles Manning Reed Mansion, also known as the Erie Club, is a historic home and clubhouse located at Erie, Erie County, Pennsylvania. The original section of the 2-1/2-story, brick mansion was built between 1846 and 1849. It was expanded with a one-story bay about 1855, a two-story bay about 1865, and a two-story extension in 1970. The front facade features a pedimented portico with four two-story, fluted Ionic order columns in the Greek Revival style. Connected to the house is a one-story, recreation hall measuring 20 feet (6.1 m) wide and 120 feet (37 m) long, with an addition built about 1920. Its builder was a descendant of the first permanent settler of Erie, Colonel Set Reed. The Erie Club purchased the property in 1904.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1] It is located in the West Sixth Street Historic District.
