Off Grid HOUSEBOAT CAMPING: The Best Way To Get Away From It All

In this week’s Deep Houseboat Life video, we take our Lake Lanier houseboat out on its maiden voyage for 2022. We decided to make a last minute trip to our houseboat on Lake Lanier, despite all the moving boxes still at our new home in the Athens, GA area. A big thunderstorm came through northeast Georgia about a month ago, and we had to assess the damage done to our houseboat. We also needed to make a list of what houseboat cleaning and maintenance should get completed before we go off grid houseboat camping more regularly.
When we say, “houseboat camping,” we don’t mean camping in a tent on a beach or island. We also don’t mean camping in a tent on our actual houseboat. Houseboat camping, to us, is sleeping off grid on a houseboat while it is beached and tied to trees on shore.
Initially, we weren’t even going to take our off grid houseboat out for its maiden voyage. Though, like all good houseboat liveaboards, we are always watching the weather for the perfect moment to take out our boat. Come along on our Lake Lanier houseboat camping trip to see how we go from making a houseboat “to-do” list, to relaxing in the beautiful scenery on our part-time liveaboard houseboat while off grid boat camping. We also celebrate the one-year anniversary of our Deep Houseboat Life channel!

2022 boating season is officially here in the southern United States and we can’t wait to get out to do more houseboat camping! Thanks for watching!

Ah man this was awesome! I knew your houseboat was big but this video just showed its size! What a location to camp, I'd give anything to have a slice of that life 🙏 hey Jessie, I still call them ropes! Lol I've never got into calling them lines , I call them as they look...like ropes 🤣 Clare is growing up so fast! Such a cutie and so many happy memories to be made. Your editing is so good by the way! Stay safe awesome people,🙏

Oh yeah, our houseboat is 80 feet long. Think we don't really notice either until we're out of our slip. It's especially noticeable when it's a really crowded and wavy day on the lake and we're driving it...gotta make sure all the valuables are locked in a secure place ha. Jessie says she likes your philosophy of just calling the thing (ropes) the thing (ropes). We tried to be intentional in this video with "lines," buuuut that may not last long as formality seems to go out the window with a toddler running around the boat. She really is growing so fast! The last two times we've been at the boat, she has been lit up and excited about everything. She is starting to know what it means and can tell us about it. And thank you! We've learned a ton this last year through trial and error with editing. Excited to see where we'll be this time next year. Thanks again for watching, and y'all have a great weekend!

@DeepHouseboatLife 2 года назад

Thank you so much for watching, Karen! We've definitely gotten better lately at sharing our adventures. Loved seeing y'all's photos from the BVIs and can't wait to hear more about that trip.

There is nothing like spontaneous boat camping! So glad you make that decision, obviously everyone enjoyed the beach. Keep making those lifetime houseboat memories…. You have a few of your own from “way back when!” 😎

Houseboat camping is the best! Hoping to get a big group from the dock out with us this summer when there are more beaches

Welcome back! Awesome!. Man I can't wait for boating. We still chilly with rain and some break outs into the 70's. Still have my pontoon under shrink-wrap. Soon... great stress relief you guys! Bravo

@DeepHouseboatLife 2 года назад

Thank you for the welcome back, Ben! Feels good to just get out there. It was indeed a great stress relief for us, hopefully it was watching the video, too. We are more than ready for boating after this winter...man, sorry to hear y'all are still getting chilly rainy weather. Those 70s temps though...soon!

They make retractable ceiling fans that work amazing and look great. I have installed many outdoors no issues. Great life to be living 🤩

@DeepHouseboatLife Год назад

Thats really cool. We need a new fan on the top deck and will check these out! Thank you so much for the comment and idea!

Thank you so much, Wayne! Such a fun way to celebrate that milestone. Glad you enjoyed our camping trip. Hoping for more of that very soon.

Glad to see you out and having fun! We're in the Dominican republic right now on our honeymoon, but when we come back to the states we hope to bring all the warm weather back with us. Cheers to summer 🍺

@DeepHouseboatLife 2 года назад

Ah man, the Dominican Republic sounds AWESOME right now. Definitely bring some of that nice weather back with you to the states. We're ready for it. Congratulations on your wedding and honeymoon. Big cheers to that!

Hi guys, I was so excited to see this notification pop up, wow Claire is really growing nice, and very talented with the fork if I may say so, she is so adorable, everything looked so beautiful with the candles lit and the evening colors, soooo jealous, but soooo happy for you guys, I'm glad that the adventures have started, til next time 👍🙏❤️😎🛥️, and happy mothers day 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐Bye

@DeepHouseboatLife 2 года назад

Hey Ruth! It's wonderful to hear from you - makes us happy to hear you were excited about our latest video. Ha, that's awesome you noticed Clare's fork skills. She really wants to try to do stuff on her own, growing up so fast. It's sweet...and sometimes messy. We were definitely in paradise, with more adventures to come. Jessie says thank you very much for the Mother's Day well-wishes. We have some special stuff planned around town on Sunday. Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Great video guys! Can you link the 35' Shore Power Cords that you bought from Home Depot?

@DeepHouseboatLife Год назад

Thank you for the comment and taking the time to watch the video! Here is a link to the shore power cords we are using. They are great and so far we have had no electrical issues since we started using these cords. Highly recommend them! www.homedepot.com/p/parkworld-36-ft-6-4-Marine-Shore-Power-50-Amp-250-Volt-Extension-Cord-NEMA-SS2-50P-to-SS2-50R-60943/316430248
