Bolling Island is a historic plantation house located near Goochland, Goochland County, Virginia. The original frame section, now the east wing, was built in 1771. The principal two-story, hipped roof brick core was built between 1800 and 1810. It was remodeled between 1820 and 1839, as a Greek Revival style dwelling. It has a two-story rear ell and the house has a "T" plan. The front facade features a two-story portico with a balustraded second level. Also on the property are the contributing smokehouse (c. 1845), office (1839), and brick kitchen.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.
