THE BOATHOUSE At Holly Cove

A Hipcamp Finalist and fan favorite this off the grid boathouse is perfect to disconnect and recharge.

The Boathouse is an off the grid experience offered on Hipcamp

Relax in a comfy full size bed with a beautiful view of the marsh, no tent or sleeping bags needed. Wake up to the sights and sounds of Onancock Creek. The Boathouse is an off-the-grid paradise on the grounds of Holly Cove just 3 miles from the town of Onancock.

The Boathouse

The Boathouse offers that off the grid experience without all the glam camp fuss. This is an offgrid no power experience.

If you need modern conviences please choose one of our other listings or properties. This is intended for the hipcamp market. For those that want to disconnect and get close to nature. 

Other Options

We have other options for our guests as well. Need a entire home for a large family, we have you covered. Want an apartment attached to the main property, we have that too.

This weekend getaway was exactly what my partner and I needed! The boat house was very well kept, very well lit in the daytime, and with romantic faux candles to set the mood in the evening. The sunsets are extraordinary, just as previous reviewers have stated. Also the drinking water and handwashing station was a lifesaver.

Additional note: Overnight on one of the nights there was a bad storm with wind and rain, and while a little creaky, the boathouse stayed dry, so no need to worry!

It was very very peaceful and quiet. The owners were out of town but they were very quick to respond. Huge property and they have goats and chickens. They allow you to use the kayaks. Also there is a grill provided and a picnic area and fire pit. One thing is there is no shower or electricity so depending on the temp…..it may not be cold/warm enough?? They also have a “studio” AirBnb that has s huge beautiful outside fire place and seating area….which we weren’t sure if we could have used??? Bars and restaurants are within a 4 mile bumpy drive……
