LUXURIOUS BEACH RETREAT WITH THE BEST FISHING AND OCEAN VIEWS IN ALL OF SARGENT!

5 out of 5

Posted 1 day ago

Travelocity Verified Review

"We stayed here for 4 nights and absolutely loved it. We didn't want to go anywhere else. The pool was a huge hit. The fishing dock was awesome. Caught tons of fish. Big black drums, speckled trout, sand trout, catfish, flounder, and lots of crabs. The pool is so close to the dock and water which made it so nice to be able to swim and fish at the same time. The lights on the dock brought the trout in really good. Neighbors were fishing and not catching many fish at all and we were catching a lot. The house was clean and cold. The house had everything we needed and is a very family friendly house. There was no mosquitoes which was amazing. Sargent is a nice little beach town. We bought fresh shrimp off the boat to cook with the crabs we caught off the dock. The pool was sooo clean and nice. The slide was awesome and everyone loved going down it. There are lights all around the house which made it nice at night. We will definitely be back.Our 4 year old son cried so bad the morning we had to leave. He absolutely loved this house. Thank you Travis for sharing your house with us, we will be back!"
