Charming Historic Lighthouse With Great Sunsets

Wake up to views of a world-class marina and beautiful waters of the Carquinez Strait from a 2 story, 112-year-old former Lighthouse and Victorian home where you can soak in the California sunshine from the gorgeous early sunrise throughout the wonderfully warm afternoon to the breath taking sunsets in the evening. At night, the C&H Sugar Factory lights up and will provide a subtle twinkle across the waters against the dark sky.

Our Family Friendly property is the centerpiece of the Glen Cove Marina, so you have the comforts of a relaxing home with beautiful views and places for light exercise on our two large lawns and adjacent walking trail, walk up to the beautiful view looking out to the water and bridges and can even catch the stunning evening sunset.

Our recently renovated two-story home has all the modern conveniences for comfortable and easy living, but believe us, the charm & personality of this old building is certainly not lost. It has over 3300 square feet of space; with a welcoming staircase entrance, a large living room, formal dining room, a bonus den off the dining room that can sleep two on a pull-out couch, FOUR upstairs bedrooms (three with a queen-size bed in each room, and one with a twin bed on top of a twin trundle), TWO full bathrooms, free wi-fi, TWO flat-screen televisions with Comcast cable with over 80 channels on each TV for your convenience, a full-size washer and dryer inside, an equipped and recently renovated modern kitchen.

The property is attached to the Glen Cove Marina and our banquet room - people may be walking around the property to access some areas.

Our Victorian Inn is deeply cleaned between stays, aired out, and all high touch areas are sanitized. We supply cleaning supplies for our guests, complimentary, allowing you to do additional cleaning as desired. We offer a no-contact check-in and check-out. When possible, rental stays are staggered with a window of 24 hours.

*The outside balcony on the second floor while beautiful to look out at, unfortunately, the area is restricted for maintenance use only. This building was a former lighthouse located at the entrance of the Carquinez straight and moved to its current location in 1955.

Great girls retreat
The property is beautiful. We were welcomed with a basket of goodies, fresh flowers and cheese. Perfect spot for our girls retreat. When one of the AC’s stopped working Maggie had someone out to repair it very quickly.

Nice rental with great view & location
Overall condition of property was well maintained and clean. The only minor complaint is that the carpet wasn't as clean as the rest of the property. I didn't feel walking around barefooted on the carpet.

The experience was ok. When families go on vacation, taking out trash and sorting towels isn't usually in the plan, especially when a cleaning fee is applied. We also did not understand why the deck was not usable, as it was not listed in the advertisement. Other was ok. Probably will not return or recommend, however it was ok overall.

Girlfriends getaway
The Lighthouse at Glen Cove is a great place to enjoy the view and relax for a few days. The living areas are light and bright and well furnished for optimum comfort. The only downside is there are no restaurants within walking distance, but it is a short drive to downtown Benicia. The property manager was very receptive to our needs.

Lovely Place
Such a cute, well situated place. Very pretty and great location. Only negative is lack of reasonable air conditioning upstairs as we were there during a heat wave and only the master bedroom had good AC. The other bedrooms have units but they were just blowing the hot air back into the rooms.

Great Hideaway
We had a wedding to attend on Mare Island and didn’t want to stay to far away from the venue. I found this place last minute and it was perfect. The house was very well furnished and very comfortable for my families stay. We had a very relaxing weekend with great views. The history behind the house was a great discussion piece for the family. If you have to stay in Vallejo this is the place.

Great Location
As soon as we walked in the door there was an odor; the water heater seemed to not work consistently, the house has a few windows that create a draft and chill. Overall was disappointed and had we visited property first we would not selected. Was a very easy process, had zero issues with property owner or process.

My family lives all around this area so it was a great meet point for all cousins & siblings during my moms book signing. Amazing views. Wish we had all access. But still great. A little miscommunication with check in but was rest assured.

Beautiful home
My sisters and I had a nice stay at this home in April. It was clean and charming. One of the detractors is that we felt by looking at the picture we would be able to sit on a deck and look out on the water. There is no access for guests to the balcony, which was too bad. But it was easy drive to Napa and some nearby restaurants.
