Off Grid HOUSEBOAT CAMPING: Slow Living Beached Life

In this week’s Deep Houseboat Life video, we’ll share a bit more about liveaboard life with you through our first houseboat camping experience as a family! 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’s beached and tied to trees on shore.

Sleeping on an off-grid houseboat while beached is something that Trey has done since growing up boating on his houseboat on Lake Lanier, and has so many wonderful boat camping memories and gone on many houseboat adventures! This was Jessie, Clare, and Dory’s first time off-grid houseboat camping on Lake Lanier, and it was a truly magical experience. We even managed to find a fairly secluded beach to ourselves for a few days on the northern part of Lake Lanier that really allowed us to embrace the slow living lifestyle.

Come along with us on our Lake Lanier houseboat camping trip, and we’ll show you what it’s like leaving the dock and marina on our part time liveaboard houseboat, finding a beach for the weekend to houseboat camp, beaching a houseboat and tying up to shore, and spending time as a family enjoying simple living for a few days. We’ll even share how off grid living on our beached houseboat is possible while away from our marina...off the grid!
