The plan wasn't to mic up an amp, just to mic up the guitar on the soundhole and (if I got the pair) somewhere on the fretboard.

That's what I meant. I've been recording direct input for almost the entire time. I've tried both the line in on my motherboard as well as the microphone jack. It's almost definitely the pickup, not the input method. I've tried sitting all the way across the room as well as 3 different input methods (as mentioned).
Buying a soundhole pickup would cost as much as mic's, so there isn't really much point in that.

I'm also looking into mics because I want that sweet soundhole-y reverb sound.

I've tried various methods of noise removal and none of them have worked. From fiddling with EQ settings to actually doing a noise removal thing (on 2 different programs including Audacity), none of which worked.
