It is fitting that a town so steeped in history is a celebrated antiques community.  Once the end of the lin efor the Raleigh and Augusta railroad.  Cameron was a bustling commercial center in the 19th century boasting the largest department store between Richmond and Augusta.  The lovely buildings that sprang up on the one mile stretch of Highway 27 now house house 12 antiques shops.  Voted best antiquing area by Our State magazine and heralded by Southern Living magazine.  Cameron is a destination for both serious collectors and weekend browsers.  The first Saturdayfairs in May and October draw vendors from across the country and are not to be missed.  The surrounding hills offer great homsites for those seeking room to roam, and Cameron's location on the eastern end of the county give it easy access to Sanford and Raleigh.  These attributes make Cameron a wonderful residental community.
