The Glenwood Neighborhood: Paradise Found

The Glenwood neighborhood, or “Glenwood” as the locals call it, is one of San Rafael’s most coveted neighborhoods, prized for its excellent school system, quiet streets, wide sidewalks and a quality of life that harkens back to an earlier time.

Bordered by San Pablo Bay and the southern ridges of China Camp State Park, the Glenwood neighborhood offers residents a variety of recreational activities, with easy access to hiking trails, parks, playgrounds, boating, fishing, windsurfing and golfing at Peacock Gap Golf Club. Nearby shopping includes Andy’s Local Market, Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s. There is also the Loch Lomond Marina which offers a bait shop, boat slips and a boat launch ramp.

Glenwood’s proximity to the bay offers not only recreational opportunities, but a more temperate climate with temperatures often 3-5 degrees cooler than downtown San Rafael. Glenwood is a very special neighborhood and truly offers a wonderful quality of life to its residents.

More about San Rafael, California

San Rafael is Marin’s oldest and largest city, with a population of close to 60,000 people. Established in 1874, it is the seat of the County of Marin and is home to Marin’s second most popular tourist destination (after Muir Woods), the Frank Lloyd Wright Civic Center. The building was the last major structure and the only government building designed by the world famous architect. It is now a national historic landmark and hosts one of the country’s best farmers markets each Thursday (seasonal, downtown) and Sunday (year-round).

Named after the Mission San Rafael Archangel, built by Spanish missionaries in 1817, San Rafael is located 11 miles north of San Francisco. The area enjoys some of the best weather in Marin as it is largely free of the coastal fog that areas closer to San Francisco experience. At the city’s heart is its charming, vibrant downtown shopping district which is a mixture of Victorian commercial buildings, ethnic restaurants, street cafes, retail stores, a historic movie theater and numerous music venues, giving San Rafael its hometown flavor.
