It must be summer, look at all the people on the water!Team Salpare Bay has already had a busy summer. April 5th over 200 people joined us for the opening of our completely redone Presentation Center. In May, the construction crane arrived and rose high above the site of our first building. On June 23rd, we celebrated our Ground Breaking. July 4th was a spectacular day, ending in a party with over 300 people, many who came by boat, enjoying an evening of friends, fun and food, concluding with “The Largest Fireworks Show West of the Mississippi!” |

Marina Now Leasing
“There is no marina like this on the West Coast! We’ve created a true 5-star experience for Portland and Vancouver area boaters,” notes Mike DeFrees, president of Columbia Rim Corporation, the developer of Salpare Bay. The Salpare Bay Marina offers a resort experience with amenities like dockside wireless and Cat5 connections to the Internet, phone and cable TV, a dedicated harbormaster, and shoreside laundry, showers and ice. A gated entry and keycard system assures your privacy and the security of your vessel.
“One of the main advantages of our location is the way we constructed our own freshwater bay behind a breakwater. The current effect of the Columbia is removed from the equation, making docking much easier and greatly reducing wear and tear on the boat and vessels,” DeFrees continued. Salpare Bay Marina consists of 194 slips from 30 feet to 60 feet, and a 100-foot super slip. For slip leasing information, call Harbormaster Ted Nelson at 503.972.9671. To inquire about a Salpare Bay condominium and slip purchase, call 503.972.9669. Marina Now Leasing
Billboard Stops Traffic
In case you’ve missed it (would be hard to do if you travel I-5), we wanted to share our newest billboard message. Take it to heart! Imagine your life changed for the better with the Columbia River waterfront and 5-star resort lifestyle of Salpare Bay. If you make a decision now, you can be living on the water next summer!
Ask The Builder
Q: Why did you choose to use a principally concrete construction system for Salpare Bay? What we see in other places is usually stick frame.
A: In a word: Quality. If you’d like another word: Privacy! The concrete systems we are using for our floors, exterior walls and our demising walls between residences is much more typical of a 5-star resort hotel, where the owner is more concerned about reducing noise transfers and decreasing the lifecycle costs than simply keeping initial construction costs low. We feel strongly that Salpare Bay is going to be a lifetime investment for our owners and, because of the resort lifestyle, they expect the finest possible materials and construction methods.
