THE PROPERTY

Well maintained waterfront home on Caney Creek in beautiful, friendly Sargent, TX. This exceptional home has an open concept living room, dining room, and kitchen area with high ceilings. The upstairs boasts two bedrooms and a full bathroom with a custom granite-topped vanity. Downstairs you'll find the bunk room, a full bathroom, and a laundry room with washer and dryer with all 3 rooms with air conditioning/heat.

Watch the beautiful sunset across the creek from the upstairs deck or follow the concrete walkway from the patio (complete with stereo and LED lights for ambiance) downstairs to the large pier and fishing dock with 2 1000w fishing lights for terrific night fishing! Bring your boat (max 6000lb) to store in the boat house lift to keep it out of the water when not in use (please let us know after booking if you plan to bring a boat so we can trailer the boat currently using the lift).

There is covered parking for three vehicles under the two carports on property and additional driveway parking for many more vehicles. If you need room for your guests with RVs, the concrete driveway is long enough for RV parking and there are both 50A and 30A RV electric outlets, sewer (1), and water (2) connections for those additional guests who drive or tow their own home (additional fee of $50/night for up to 2 RVs).


ENTERTAINMENT

TVs are provided in the living room and both upstairs bedrooms with Dish Network service.

WiFi is provided throughout the home and yard.

A DVD player is available in the upstairs living room and there is a stereo with speakers on the downstairs patio to relax and listen to some tunes while watching the beautiful sunset with a cold beverage.

Assorted board games and card games are provided, as well as several puzzles to keep you occupied if the weather doesn't cooperate for a while or you just feel like relaxing indoors.


SARGENT AREA

Sargent Beach is a short 3-mile drive, just across the bridge over the Intercoastal Waterway. Take a stroll on the beach, collect shells, or swim (at your own risk - no lifeguards) in the surf. Sargent is the best-kept secret on the Texas coast!

If you have a boat, there are a few public ramps at Wahoo’s Marina & Charlie's Bait Camp all within 1.5 miles. By boat, Wahoo’s Marina is 1 mile away and offers ethanol-free fuel on the water (Or fuel up at Texaco before launching your boat to save a few bucks). Another mile or so down the creek is the Caney "Y", the Intracoastal Waterway, and Mitchell's Cut with access to the Gulf and excellent fishing, especially on incoming/outgoing tides.

Local restaurants include The Crab Trap (our favorite) on the corner of FM 457 & FM 2611 (new location), Hookers Waterfront Grill (we love the fish tacos) next to the bridge (with boat slips), On the Corner Restaurant (ask for the Sargent Special for breakfast) on FM 457 just south of the Texaco, and two food trucks —Smokey Dan's BBQ and Flip Flop Paradise (try the Jasonnator if you’re really hungry!) — on FM 457. You can also get Hunt Brothers pizza to go at the Sargent Country Store at the S-curve coming into town.

Grocery shopping & beer/wine is available at Dollar General on FM 457 and convenience store items and beer/wine can be found at the Sargent Country Store and Texaco. The best liquor store in town is Coastal Liquor at the corner of FM 457 and FM 2611 just north of Sargent (you'll pass it coming into town). Don't miss the Sargent shopping area just south of FM 2611 on FM 457 that is only open on Saturdays to pick up some unique Sargent memorabilia, cigars, craft beers, and high end chocolate.

For history buffs, there are several historical markers in the area with Civil War era information. The area between the Brazos River and Colorado River, which includes Caney Creek, was part of Stephen F. Austin's original land grant from Mexico where Texas began. History surrounds you here, and there are several museums within a 1-hour drive, or venture slightly further and visit the historic ghost town of Indianola, one of the largest ports in the south until the town was abandoned and engulfed by the sea following two devastating hurricanes and a couple disease outbreaks. There is no lack of interesting information in the area for those who enjoy history!

Most of all, relax and enjoy your stay!

About the host

Hosted by Barbara Shields

Host profile image
I grew up in the Galveston Mainland area, though I've also lived in Houston, Teheran Iran, London, Waller, Cypress, and currently in Manvel. I have always loved the coast and wanted to have a second home to enjoy fishing and boating with my children and grandchildren.

Why they chose this property

Sargent is a wonderful, unique small town that offers excellent fishing, duck hunting, beachcombing, and bird watching opportunities. Part of the original Stephen F. Austin land grant, the Caney Creek area has a storied history. Sitting on the upstairs deck and looking out at Caney Creek between the rows of tropical palm trees, you can almost see and hear paddlewheelers traveling up and down the creek transporting prized Caney Creek cotton from the plantations up the creek to the Gulf for shipment to Europe and other areas around the world. I love the history of the area that can still be seen by simply looking across the creek at Cornelius Ranch or reading one of several historical markers around town describing the Civil War forts on Caney Creek where the Confederate Army stopped the Union Navy from advancing further up the Texas coast or the 1838 master planned community of Manhattan located near the "Caney Y" that never came to be. Tack onto that the laid back, social, fishing-oriented people we are proud to call neighbors and you have all the makings for a terrific, peaceful vacation destination!

What makes this property unique

Sargent is a small coastal town without even a stoplight. The people are friendly, the fishing is top-notch directly from the fishing dock or by boat, and the sunsets from the upstairs deck and the dock are stunning! The lot is very unique in that it has palms that line both sides of the property to give you a sense of privacy and to enhance the coastal feel of the home. We know you'll love this home as much as we do!
