Paradise Park Masonic Club

Paradise Park Masonic Club is a unique and historic residential community nestled among approximately 138 acres of majestic redwoods along the San Lorenzo River, just north of Santa Cruz. Established in 1924, the community began as a Masonic summer retreat and has evolved into a cooperative residential neighborhood with nearly 400 homes. Residents enjoy a peaceful, wooded setting with a strong sense of community, along with amenities such as picnic areas, tennis and shuffleboard courts, and a social hall. The community is particularly distinctive because ownership is structured cooperatively: residents own their homes while holding an interest in the corporation that owns the underlying land. Paradise Park's historic character, mature forest setting, and close-knit atmosphere make it one of the more unusual residential communities in the Santa Cruz area.
