A Firewise Community

Ready Country Club (RCC ) is an informal Committeee of volunteer Country Club neighbors who want to promote fire safety in the San Rafael Country Club community. RCC is not a Homeowners Association (HOA) and does not plan to levy dues or have rules and regulations. Our goal is simply to encourage and support our neighborhood homeowners to make their homes safer, for the benefit of all.
The Committee was formed late in 2019 and worked to develop a plan and an Application to secure "Firewise" status for the community. This was achieved early in May 2020 and was renewed in 2022 and 2025.
Current members of the committee can be found in Contacts."
We invite all neighbors in the Country Club area to join us:
Please sign up for our free Monthly Newsletter which contains information relating to fire safety in our community. To receive the Newsletter, please send an email to: neighbors@readycountryclub.com with your contact information. We will not sell or share your information and you can unsubscribe at any time.
Please also consider joining our Committee. We meet by Zoom once per month for an hour or less, and occassionally meet in person. Time commitment is minimal, we need your ideas and enthusiasm.
San Rafael Country Club is partly located in the Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) where homes are intermixed with open space and wildland vegetation. Although not one of the 23 communities in Marin County listed on CAL FIRE’S Communities at Risk list, our neighborhood’s designation in the WUI puts us at high risk from wildfires.
Country Club is located in San Rafael, east of Highway 101 and off of Point San Pedro Road. Accessible from San Rafael’s city streets, the neighborhood is a mix of the City of San Rafael and unincorporated Marin County. The RCC neighborhood is bordered on the south by Pont San Pedro; the north-east by open space (Gold Hill, San Pedro Mountain, Harry Barbier Memorial Park, and China Camp State Park); the east by the communities of Loch Lomond, Glenwood and Bay Side Acres; and the north-west by Dominican/Black Canyon and the City of San Rafael.
The Country Club Area encompasses some or all of the following roads: Alta Vista Way, Brodea Way, Crown Point Road, Deer Park Avenue, Dominican Way, Fairway Drive, Highland Avenue, Junipero Serra Avenue, Lunada Court, Madeline Lane, Margarita Drive, Marina Boulevard, Marina Court Drive, Moncada Way, Montecito Road, Morgan Lane, Pigeon Hollow Road, Point San Pedro Road, Sea view Avenue, Sea View Drive, Summit Avenue and West Seaview Avenue,.
Country Club consists of 298 acres of approximately 1000 people and 315 homes. The neighborhood features large single-family residences on flat and hillside lots averaging between 1 and 2 acres, many with locked gates and narrow driveways. With recent average neighborhood sales prices in excess of $1.75 million, total residential property value likely exceeds $500 million.
Most of the homes were built in the 1950’s and 1960’s. As an older, fully developed neighborhood, minimal growth is anticipated.
The average age of a County Club resident is 60 years’ old. 89% of residents are homeowners. Only 21% of residents are families with children.
