Nestled between the Gulf of Mexico and the Intercoastal Waterway, Sargent Island, with its unique, water-front home sites, was created in the 1950s. A quiet community, we feel Sargent is an oasis away from the crowds and congestion of other beach-side communities. We love taking a break from our busy lives to listen to the waves roaring down the shore. We think you'll love it, too! Learn more about this land: This is a 8000 sq ft privately owned, ocean-side lot. Located on a barrier island in Sargent, TX, the site offers a neighborhood atmosphere, with a secluded, unobstructed beach view. There is an approximately 30x30 gravel pad and long driveway. The property is beach front, but dune area/beach may not be accessible by foot (depends on tidal flow, rainfall, Gulf storms etc.). Full beach access is about 1/4 mile down the road. This is a subdivision--there is a neighbor on our right side. This is an RV lot only. This property suits smaller to midsize RVs and most wheeled campers (but no ground tents--there is too much ground wildlife for safety, though elevated, vehicle-mounted tents are fine).  The property is still in development. We currently have electricity (110v, 30, 50 amp), water, but NO SEWER OR SEPTIC. You must bring your own toilet facilities with you and take the waste away. NOTE: Public Toilet facilities and trash available 1.5 miles away. We do provide a picnic table, but it changes often--we lose them in storms, lol. You'll also have a clothes line and a canopy as wind/storms permit. If you're an introvert, dislike traffic or just like breathing room, you'll love quiet, crowd-free, Sargent beach. It's such a peaceful getaway!  ISLAND LIFE NOTE: This is the Texas Gulf Coast--we have mosquitos, and it's the state bird for a reason! Please bring SPRAY. We never guarantee a bug-free experience. This gorgeous, island property is vulnerable to the extreme weather conditions on the Texas Gulf Coast. It's a dynamic property, shifting and changing, depending on the weather--we try our best to maintain this property in a timely manner, but we can't control this Mother Nature factor! There may be times we cannot put up the shade canopy due to high winds, other aspects of the property may have shifted, there may not be a beach due to high tides, you may not be able to walk to the beach from the property, etc. Please ask questions and we'll communicate what's available at your booking time. Our strict cancellation policy encourages good communication at time of booking. We do not grant refunds for rain, tidal flow, or any other natural element beyond our control. Keep in mind HipCamp may offer weather insurance for you.

Boho on the Brazos: Ruby's Retreat

11. Boho on the Brazos: Ruby's Retreat

35mi from Wharton · 1 site
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, and string lights for evening magic. 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.

Nestled between the Gulf of Mexico and the Intercoastal Waterway, Sargent Island, with its unique, water-front home sites, was created in the 1950s. A quiet community, we feel Sargent is an oasis away from the crowds and congestion of other beach-side communities. We love taking a break from our busy lives to listen to the waves roaring down the shore. We think you'll love it, too! Learn more about this land: This is a 8000 sq ft privately owned, ocean-side lot. Located on a barrier island in Sargent, TX, the site offers a neighborhood atmosphere, with a secluded, unobstructed beach view. There is an approximately 30x30 gravel pad and long driveway. The property is beach front, but dune area/beach may not be accessible by foot (depends on tidal flow, rainfall, Gulf storms etc.). Full beach access is about 1/4 mile down the road. This is a subdivision--there is a neighbor on our right side. This is an RV lot only. This property suits smaller to midsize RVs and most wheeled campers (but no ground tents--there is too much ground wildlife for safety, though elevated, vehicle-mounted tents are fine).  The property is still in development. We currently have electricity (110v, 30, 50 amp), water, but NO SEWER OR SEPTIC. You must bring your own toilet facilities with you and take the waste away. NOTE: Public Toilet facilities and trash available 1.5 miles away. We do provide a picnic table, but it changes often--we lose them in storms, lol. You'll also have a clothes line and a canopy as wind/storms permit. If you're an introvert, dislike traffic or just like breathing room, you'll love quiet, crowd-free, Sargent beach. It's such a peaceful getaway!  ISLAND LIFE NOTE: This is the Texas Gulf Coast--we have mosquitos, and it's the state bird for a reason! Please bring SPRAY. We never guarantee a bug-free experience. This gorgeous, island property is vulnerable to the extreme weather conditions on the Texas Gulf Coast. It's a dynamic property, shifting and changing, depending on the weather--we try our best to maintain this property in a timely manner, but we can't control this Mother Nature factor! There may be times we cannot put up the shade canopy due to high winds, other aspects of the property may have shifted, there may not be a beach due to high tides, you may not be able to walk to the beach from the property, etc. Please ask questions and we'll communicate what's available at your booking time. Our strict cancellation policy encourages good communication at time of booking. We do not grant refunds for rain, tidal flow, or any other natural element beyond our control. Keep in mind HipCamp may offer weather insurance for you.

35mi from Wharton · 1 site
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, and string lights for evening magic. 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.
