The Johannesburg Country Club, in Auckland Park, caught fire on Tuesday afternoon.
Multiple videos showed buildings ablaze as smoke billowed into the air while people ran away from the fire.
Traffic in and around the country club was not affected.
The cause of the fire remains unknown, as well as the extent of the damage at the country club.
Johannesburg Emergency Management Services (EMS) spokesperson Robert Malaudzi said emergency services received a structural fire call at around 4.20pm.
“On arrival at Country Club Johannesburg, firefighter crews found the building gutted with flames,” he said.
“Three fire engines, a water tanker and an air truck were dispatched to the scene, and fortunately, everyone managed to evacuate when the fire started.
“The fire has been contained in the kitchen, dining hall, and reception area. At the moment, the cause of fire is still a subject of investigations.”
Malaudzi said no injuries were reported.
The Citizen has sent messages to spokespeople at the country club for more details about the fire and the extent of the damage.
