Nestled in two valleys north of the San Rafael Canal and east of downtown, the Montecito Area (Happy Valley) is one of San Rafael's oldest neighborhoods, offering a variety of housing, businesses, and community services. We are located next to San Francisco Bay on San San Pablo Bay and the San Rafael Creek. 

Our neighborhood features a beautiful natural setting, elegant historic homes, a location convenient to retail shops and service providers, and a diversity of activity and community.  Schools, jobs, and transit are all within short walking distance.
