2021 Marina of the Year Award

“Building and Growing” Category

Village West Marina & Resort was honored to receive this year’s annual Marina of the Year Awards for the category of “Building and Growing.” Our Harbor Master Tim Fontaine and General Manager Vickie Baumann flew to Nashville to attend the Marina Age Dock Expo and to accept the award. This award is special for many reasons. It’s a national award so we are competing with some amazing marinas all over the country. We care about you, our guests and tenants; we’re listening carefully and will continue to make improvements around the marina. Village West Marina is ever improving and in the past few years alone has completely transformed. We added the word “Resort” to our name for a reason. Village West Marina & Resort will continue to make first-class improvements for the enjoyment of our guests and tenants, and to contribute to the betterment of the California Delta and the community as a whole.

Marina Dock Age Magazine featured Village West Marina & Resort in a recent article, Village West Marina Transforms from Boat Storage to Boater Destination, acknowledging the Marina of the Year award, and some of the great things happening around the marina!

Gold Anchor Accreditation

The Gold Anchor Global Marina Accreditation Program has been auditing marinas around the world for more than 25 years and is now being administered by the Marine Recreation Association in the United States with three California marinas being accredited to date. We began the in-depth evaluation process, covering 87 separate criteria, November 2020, which included a physical survey of the marina facilities and review of marina policies, procedures, and customer services. The ‘5-Gold Anchor’ award requires a score of 85 to 94% on the assessment, which few marinas world-wide have achieved. We are the 1st marina in Northern California to achieve 5 Gold Anchors, and the 2nd Marina in all of California to achieve this status.
