Cottonwood Cove Marina is a 1,900 marina houseboat rental shop and small engine repair shop on a custom fabricated floating dock system on Lake Mead, just outside Searchlight, Nevada. The project is part of Cottonwood Cove Resort in the Lake Mead National Recreation Area and provides rentals for personal watercraft and houseboats. Additionally the marina building will provide dry storage and boat repair service as well as restrooms to guests. The building is designed to seek LEED Gold Certification via an energy efficient design. The building is composed of SIPS walls and roofs to provide a highly insulated shell and large overhangs to shield the glazing and reduce overall energy demands. Included are Photovoltaic panels for energy production and careful building orientation and materials selection to optimize building performance. Click here to view Video from KLAS Channel 6
