THE PROPERTY
Well maintained waterfront home on Caney Creek in beautiful, friendly Sargent, TX. This exceptional home was recently remodeled with 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 with air conditioning, a full bathroom, and a laundry room with washer and dryer.
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 four 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, and the Crab Trap restaurant, 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 - try the crab cakes, the death burger, or the grilled barramundi) on Caney Creek (with boat slips), 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, hamburgers, and similar food to go at the Sargent Country Store at the S-curve coming into town.
Grocery shopping 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 Senor Woods 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!
