We had a great time at the dome by the sea. Clean, cozy, and a great location for a beach day, or fishing of your personal dock in the back yard. The house was well stocked, and had everything you need.

It was exactly what we wanted. A place to stay on the water and to be able to fish whenever we wanted too. Bonus sound was that at night you could also hear the ocean in the background.

Our second stay

We enjoyed our first stay so much we returned for a second trip to this charmingly unique house. We enjoyed fishing right from the backyard, and the beach is just a few minutes away. The house has everything you need to make you feel at home, and the hosts are always quick to respond to any questions.

LOVED IT

We had the most wonderful stay. We travel alot and have stayed in many VRBO's but this one really stood out. First of all they are very generous with coffee and supplies. We also had everything we needed to cook a meal. This was a wonderful choice and we will be back. We loved sitting out on the deck at night and watching the birds, we also loved the star-gazing and they provide a telescope. One day we even saw the dolphins playing very close to our pier. We miss the dome house by the sea already!

Our host was in touch upon making the reservation and was immediately available with answers to any question. Check in was easy with the keys in a lock box on the door. The place was very comfortable, clean and very well supplied. We fished most of the time and the light, cleaning table and hose were nice accommodations. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen had everything you could need. There are many games and movies if you are so inclined. We had no issues during our stay. We would recommend the Dome to anyone coming to Sargent.

Fishing and Family Fun

What a gem of a property! Clean and comfortable, the house has everything you need and then some. Gorgeous views and plenty of indoor and outdoor activities to fill your days, not to mention excellent fishing right on-site. Other than shade on the pier and taller rod holders, we couldn't have asked for more.

Great Getaway

We had a nice relaxing 8 night stay. Very clean property with everything you need included. Quiet community that is still recovering from hurricane Beryl. Many businesses were not open. We did have a good experience at the gas station, dollar store, Flamingo liquor store & Tipps Bait camp. We would stay here again.
