Fishin' House
Wonderful property, good fishing from the dock. Lots of wind during our stay, but that's not the house's fault. One improvement I would like to see is an extension of the walkway to the pier so you don't have to wade through the water at high tide.

fishing getaway
Our host, Kate, took great care of us. She was always available to answer any questions in a timely manner. The property was very nice, great location, good pier and a nice view. The fishing was hit and miss depending on the tide. We did manage to catch several big crab and some sand trout. The big fish of the trip was a 36" black drum. It took several minutes to land the monster fish, but we finally got him in. He posed for a few pictures before we released him back into the creek. It was a relaxing and memorable vacation. We look forward to staying again.

Fishing and Relaxation
Everything was spot on. The host was great and fishing pretty decent considering the weather and time of year. Update needed to listing, there is no hotub as listed. The hot tub doesn't matter to us, but may to some. 5 star's and will book again in the spring.

Summer Trip to Sargent
We had a great week at the Fishing house. Kate and Donna are always awesome to deal with (thank you both). The fishing in the bay can be a challenge in the warmer months, but we still had some luck out on the boat. And the fishing off of the pier was great as usual. Tip for pier fishermen: The activity seems to pick up significantly as the tide starts to come back in. And the later the better, so get that afternoon nap in.
We'll be back again next year for sure. Thanks again.

Fishing heaven
We’ve rented the fishing house several times throughout the past years and it never disappoints. The location is one of the best places on Caney Creek. We love this house and we will continue to rent with Caney Y on VRBO.

Waisted money
Won’t be returning. Cute little fishing house. No beach worth going to. Very high winds actually took the river away and left nothing but mud. So couldn’t fish or bbq. Spent one night and left. Warning high winds no refunds is in contact!

Another great stay
Our second stay here and we had a great time once again. If you’re looking for a luxury resort community, Sargent is not your cup of tea. If you’re looking for an off the radar place to fish, bird watch or just relax this is it. This property is clean, comfortable and has everything you need. Manager is exceptional to work with.

Great getaway!
Everything was as described. We only caught a few keepers, but it was likely post-freeze bad luck... I’m confident the fishing will pick up later and this will be a great spot for anyone! Quiet neighborhood and great pier. Great wi-fi as well!

Great place to relax and fish
We had a great short stay here. The fishing was good and even though it was cold we really enjoyed ourselves. It was nice to come back into the warm house and be cozy after a long day/night fishing.
