Glen Cove Marina

What Glen Cove Marina does

Glen Cove Marina is a privately held, member-owned dockominium marina located at 2012 Glen Cove Marina Road in Vallejo, California, on the Carquinez Strait. Operating under the Glen Cove Marina Dockominium Association, Inc. — a non-profit property owner's association founded in 2007 under private ownership — the marina sells and leases individually deeded boat slips to private owners in the San Francisco Bay Area. Slip purchasers acquire fee-simple title (priced at $900–$1,200 per linear foot, or $22,000–$67,000 per slip) and gain voting membership in the association, which maintains the docks, common areas, insurance, and dredged waterways on their behalf through monthly dues.

The marina's core products are Dockominium boat slips (fee-simple ownership) and monthly slip leases (covered 24'–44' slips at $9.95–$12.50/foot and open 32'–55' slips at $12.50–$12.95/foot, with kayak slips, side ties, and a 140-foot guest dock as ancillary offerings). Supporting revenue streams include live-aboard accommodations ($345/month plus slip fees, subject to BCDC permit), The Lighthouse at Glen Cove Marina — a 150-person waterfront banquet venue housed in the historic 1909 Carquinez Strait Lighthouse building — and the Victorian Inn Rental, a 2,600+ square foot four-bedroom vacation property distributed via VRBO.

Glen Cove Marina distributes services through a direct-to-consumer model: a website with lease rate information and inquiry forms, a customer portal for existing tenants, and word-of-mouth referrals reinforced by social media (Facebook, Instagram), Craigslist classifieds, and earned media including a Fox Channel 2 News segment. The marina has earned the Marina Dock Age Small Marina of the Year award (2014, the first California recipient) and the Vallejo Chamber of Commerce Business of the Year (2010), and maintains Clean Marina Certified status. The association is governed by an unpaid, elected five-member Board of Directors, with 1–10 staff managing day-to-day operations on site.
