Bolthole Index is reader-supported.
Bolthole Index (operated by 1732 Studios LLC) participates in affiliate and referral programs. This means some links on our site — for example, links to book a campsite on Hipcamp, to browse land and homes on partner listing sites, or to buy off-grid gear such as water filters and power stations — are affiliate links.
Some county pages carry a sponsored local seller: a labeled strip near the top and a contact card in the Property hunt section. Sponsorship is a paid or complimentary placement, not an endorsement, and on a sponsored county we remove our generic listing-site links. Sponsors cannot buy a change to any score, rule, or guide. See how sponsorship works.
If you click one of these links and make a purchase or booking, we may earn a commission, at no additional cost to you. Commissions are one of the ways we fund the free content on this site.
The programs we work with change over time; today they are the Amazon Associates program and direct merchant referral programs (such as Hipcamp, Crystal Quest, and Bluetti). As an Amazon Associate, Bolthole Index earns from qualifying purchases.Some links on the site are ordinary, untracked links that earn us nothing — we include them because they’re useful.
Our recommendations and rankings are not for sale. We compute Index scores from public data using a consistent methodology and are not influenced by affiliate relationships. We link to a merchant because it is genuinely useful for readers researching a place — not because of a commission.
