Nestled between the Gulf of America and the Intracoastal Waterway, Sargent Island was developed in the 1950s and remains a quiet coastal community. We consider Sargent an oasis away from the crowds and congestion of other beach destinations. We love escaping our busy lives to listen to the waves crashing along the shore, and we think you'll love it too.
This privately owned 8,000 sq. ft. beachfront lot is located on a barrier island in Sargent, TX. It offers a neighborhood setting with a secluded, unobstructed view of the Gulf. The property features an approximately 30' x 30' gravel pad and a long driveway.
While the property is beachfront, direct access to the dune area and beach may not always be available due to tides, rainfall, storms, or beach erosion. Public beach access is located about 1/4 mile down the road.
Please note this is a subdivision, and there is a neighboring home on the right side of the property.
This site is intended for RVs and wheeled campers only. It is best suited for small to midsize RVs. Ground tents are not permitted due to local wildlife, although elevated vehicle-mounted tents are welcome.
The property is still being developed. We currently provide electricity (110V, 30-amp, and 50-amp service) and water, but there is NO sewer or septic system. Guests must bring their own toilet facilities and remove all waste upon departure. Public restrooms and trash disposal are available approximately 1.5 miles away.
A picnic table, clothesline, and shade canopy are typically provided, but availability may vary due to storms and high winds.
If you enjoy quiet surroundings, open space, and uncrowded beaches, Sargent is the perfect getaway.
ISLAND LIFE NOTE: This is the Texas Gulf Coast, and mosquitoes can be abundant. Please bring insect repellent, as we cannot guarantee a bug-free experience.
This property is subject to changing coastal conditions. High tides, storms, and wind may affect beach access, the canopy, or other amenities. Please ask questions before booking so we can provide current conditions. We do not offer refunds for rain, tides, storms, or other natural events beyond our control. HipCamp may offer optional weather insurance.

Private lot on the Gulf of Mexico in Sargent, Texas. Just walk across the foot path to the Gulf of Mexico. Full RV Hookups - water, electrical (50A/30A/20A), and sewage. 70+ feet of concrete pad and driveway inside the fenced yard with plenty of space for all RVs.
The property is fully fenced. The entrance gate is 16' wide. The yard is all St. Augustine grass. Very clean and maintained. Pets are welcome.
This property is tailored for RVs, 5th Wheels, Travel Trailers, and Motorhomes that have black and grey tanks and can hold their waste water (shower, toilet, and washing) for dumping into the on-site water treatment unit. You must have your own shower, sinks, and toilet on your rig with holding tanks for black and grey water and the ability to dump into the dump location on the property. The property is not designed for tent campers.
The electrical and sewage hookups are on the left side of the property. Motorhomes (Class A, Pushers, and Class C RVs can pull directly into the space with hookups in the usual location. 5th wheels, travel trailers, and campers that are pulled by a vehicle will need to back into the space as there is no room in the front of the property to drive in, unhook your vehicle, and drive the vehicle off the slab. When you back in, the hookups will be on the the opposite side of your connections. Depending upon your travel trailer and where you place your travel trailer on the slab, you may need electrical or sewage extensions to reach the connections.
The vast majority of the renters who use the property used a 5th wheel, travel trailer or camper that is pulled by a vehicle.
The pictures of the property show a line of granite blocks between the property and the beach. The granite forms a seawall (called the revetment wall) that was installed by the Corp of Engineers and prevents beach erosion. Depending on the tides, sometimes the Gulf waters hit the wall and there is very little beach area in front of the property. Sometimes, there is a large beach area. If the water is against the seawall and you’re looking for beach area, there are several beach entrances along Canal Drive within driving and walking distance.

Welcome to Ruby’s Retreat! This camper is named after my grandmother, Ruby — a woman who dreamed of exotic horizons but never got the chance to see them. After spending more than 230 nights in this cozy space over the past three years, I wanted to honor her legacy. I’m opening the door for you to a world of adventure without going too far. When you stay here, you aren’t just renting a camper — you’re helping a dream finally take flight, one sunrise and sunset at a time.
The Minimalism Experiment
In a world of “too much,” Ruby’s Retreat is an invitation to have “just enough.” We’ve stripped away the clutter to focus on what matters. Inside, you’ll find the essentials: a cozy bed, a small coffee station, and a “Self-Introspection Basket” filled with adult coloring books, cards, and dominoes to help you unplug.
The Setting: Real, Raw, Rural
Let’s be 100% honest: this is not a high-end luxury resort. We’re located in a rustic, authentic Texas RV park in the suburbs of Houston. The roads are gravel, the neighboring bathhouse is vintage, and the landscape is a simple wooded field near the banks of the Brazos River.
But what we lack in “polish,” we make up for in peace. You’ll have:
Private outdoor space, complete with a boho mandala rug, comfortable chairs.
Water access — just a short walk to a private pond and the Brazos River, perfect for fishing or a quiet morning or evening stroll.
Creature comforts, including a Keurig for your morning brew, a small heater/AC for Texas weather, and a space designed with a whole lot of heart.
While situated in the suburbs, restaurants, convenience stores, and grocery stores are just minutes away.
Is Ruby’s Retreat for You?
If you need marble countertops and manicured lawns, you might want to keep looking. But if you’re seeking a soul-filling experience — a place to journal, catch a fish, and honor the spirit of a woman who loved the idea of travel — then Ruby is waiting for you.
Come sit a spell. Help Ruby see through your eyes.

Eric and Jay’s RV Resort is a chic resort consisting of 114 RV pads in a gated, access-controlled community. The RV pads range in size with 30-foot back-ins, 40-foot extended length, and luxury pull-throughs. Each slip is outfitted with a picnic table and includes water, sewer and electric hook-ups as well as a fast fiber internet connection. The drive lanes are 20 - 28 feet wide allowing for easy maneuvering. Select pads feature a lake view, quick amenity access, private yards and/or covered parking.
The resort is a stylish, amenity-laden destination offering a charming Texas Hill Country vibe in the midst of the exciting city life. The property is anchored by a clubhouse and pool terrace with a heated jacuzzi, a gazebo grilling/dining area, and an outdoor fire pit overlooking the large pond stocked for fishing. The modern Clubhouse features individual restrooms with showers, a fitness center, a game room, a business center, a lounge, a hospitality kitchen, and a laundry room.
A major perk of staying at Eric and Jay’s is the immediate access to the City of Houston’s vast retail and transportation network. We have short-term guests coming for a long weekend to visit Houston and long-term guests embracing the close-knit community while not having to worry about a long commute.

4 nights at Boho On The Brazos: Ruby's Retreat
This is a very cute little trailer in a very quiet, well-shaded RV park. A simple accommodation and good value for the money. The trailer was cool at night due to two fans, one in the ceiling. I slept well.

We had a great time in Bolivar! Jennifer's place was perfect for our stay. Having the camper covered was fantastic - our little home on wheels stayed a lot cooler - and our two dogs really appreciated the freedom to run around in the fully fenced yard! It was a short walk to the beach and we enjoyed hanging out on the patio and around the campfire. We will definitely stay again when we are in the area!

This RV site with full hookups was perfect and as described! The concrete slab was perfectly level. It has an electrical hookup, water, and a dump station. Plenty of room for setting up a hangout spot with a table and chairs - everything is kept very clean. Bring a canopy or ask him if he has a shade for the installed poles. Neighbors, if you see any, are extremely quiet. The fence was such an added bonus since we brought our dog, who loves to lie outside. Note: The sun, coastal wind, and TX-sized mosquitoes are no joke during that season, so bring protection! If you need a quiet place to set up with a view of the gulf, THIS is the property for you!

We had a great time camping at No Moss Island staying at No Moss 3. The site itself was peaceful, relaxing, and exactly what we were looking for for a getaway. The area was clean and the overall experience was enjoyable.
A couple things future campers should definitely know:
Bring plenty of mosquito spray — the mosquitoes can get pretty intense, especially in the evenings. Bug spray is absolutely a must if you want to stay comfortable outside.
Also, the dog at Site 1 barked quite a bit throughout our stay, so just be aware if you’re looking for complete quiet.
Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay and would still recommend it to anyone wanting a fun camping trip by the water!

We enjoyed our stay at the OceanFront RV Pad. Our host Lisa was friendly, very knowledgeable of the area, and a cool host.
The concrete pad site is very level and accessible from the front road that separates the campsite from the Gulf of America. Our 30 amp connection was stable, we didn't avail ourselves of the septic connection, and Lisa advised us to use the water for showering only which we did.
The location is remote, so please arrive prepared with what you need to support yourselves during your stay. The nearest "town" of Sargent doesn't offer much in the way of shopping or dining, but we knew that going in and packed accordingly.
For us, it was perfect as we simply wanted a nice quiet place to enjoy the peace, tranquility and sounds of the ocean, and the OceanFront RV Pad delivered that in abundance.
If we find ourselves in that neck of woods again, we'd absolutely book a stay here again, and recommend that you do the same!

We had an amazing, quick spring break getaway at Oceanfront RV. Lisa was extremely accommodating to our family and very helpful with directions and parking for all of us. She even went above and beyond to help us find a store that had a sewage hose extension when we realized we had forgotten ours.
The site itself was extremely clean, with the yard cleared of stickers and ants. Even though it was located near their house, we never felt crowded and still had plenty of privacy.
The beach access was the best part. It was far enough away that we didn’t end up filling the camper with sand, but close enough that my kids and mother-in-law could easily and safely walk back and forth.
We truly enjoyed our stay. The beach was completely uncrowded and incredibly relaxing for all of us. We would absolutely stay here again!
