Peaceful Vallejo community centered around the Glen Cove Marina
Glen Cove homes offer tranquil views of the Carquinez Strait, which empties into the San Pablo Bay. “Glen Cove is a little oasis in the middle of Vallejo,” says Madeleine Xavier, Glen Cove resident and real estate agent licensed in California. This quiet, hillside community is known for its outdoor recreation activities, like walking the flat, waterside Bay Area Ridge Trail, sailing with old friends and making new friends at the pickleball courts. “The views are what draws people in,” says Cathy Rojas, a lifetime local of Vallejo and agent at RE/MAX Gold Benicia with 20 years of experience. “It feels very private, with one way in and one way out. People love it out here.”
The Glen Cove neighborhood is full of beautiful scenery and landscapes.
Large single-family homes with large front and backyards are available in Glen Cove.

Sailing and socializing at the Glen Cove Marina and pickleball courts
The Glen Cove Marina and Yacht Club are major draws to living in the neighborhood. Locals can rent or buy boat slips at Glen Cove Marina, and even those without boats are welcome at the Glen Cove Yacht Club, which hosts monthly barbeques and coastal cleanups for the community. The neighborhood pickleball courts are always flooded with people of all ages and abilities; the spur-of-the-moment, pick-up game vibe welcomes strangers to pair up for doubles matches, whether or not they live in Glen Cove.
At Benicia State Recreation Area, anglers fishing for bass and bullhead cast lines into the Carquinez Strait, creating ripples in its glassy surface. This state-protected wetland contains Forrest Deaner Botanical Garden, where local volunteers planted native plants like Coyote mint and California sagebrush. Nature lovers can watch hummingbirds flutter. Distant cars whoosh down the road across the strait and the occasional plane flies overhead – reminders that the bustle of the Bay Area is never far away.
Enjoy outdoors with picnics, trails, and fishing at Benicia State Recreation Area.
Being right on the shoreline, Glen Cove offers residents with plenty of boat storage.
From beginners to pros, everyone loves pickleball at Glen Cove Park's top-notch courts.

Wide neighborhood streets go up and down hills; trees grow in medians, which turn red in November. Some New Traditional and Mission Revival homes are neutral-toned, while others have pops of color, like red shutters or light pink façades. Prices start at about $570,000, with some in need of renovations selling for less. Single-family homes reach $980,000 for a prime spot overlooking the marina in the gated Vista Del Mar subdivision. Condos and townhouses are close to the water, mainly clustered on the western side of the marina. They start at $275,000 for a one-bed, one-bath and extend to $625,000 for a three-bed, two-and-a-half-bath. “The townhomes and condos have some of the best views,” Rojas says. “Many of those communities have HOAs, but other subdivisions don’t.”
