Lands End is one of the most unique properties in Gulf Shores! Located in the heart of the city and sitting on over 1 acre of land, the list of amenities is the stuff dream vacations are made of... The front yard consists of a brand new sports court for Basketball, Pickleball, Volleyball, and enough parking for 10 vehicles... The backyard has its own private heated pool with built-in hot tub, layout chairs, outdoor covered tiki hut with big table and grill, also a boat dock on the lagoon, fish cleaning station with water and electric, fish bragging board, and oh yeah forgot to mention its own private beach with palm trees, hammocks and FIRE PIT! The outdoor hangout space is truly impressive.
Perfectly located just 1 mile West of the famous HWY 59 and within walking distance to the City Centre, Land's End Private Estate is the ultimate large group, beach vacation headquarters! Perfect for family reunions, traveling sports teams, corporate groups, church retreats, and multi-family getaways! We are nestled right on the tip of the 2,480 acre saltwater lagoon, next to Pier 33 and behind Ikes Beach Service with great public access to the famous white sandy beach and the Gulf of Mexico right across the street with a crosswalk. We have plenty of parking for all your vehicles, and even your boats too!
Its not just the outside space that is the only impressive attribute of Lands End, but rather the inside space boasts over 6000 square feet of living space as well. Easily sleeps 34 with room for more... 10 bedrooms, 10 bathrooms, 3 kitchens, 3 refrigerators and freezers, 3 washers and dryers, 13 TV's, 10 private balcony decks, 3 large decks overlooking pool area, and an outdoor closet stocked with boogie boards, beach chairs, toys, yet another fridge/freezer and much more!
At the beach directly across the street we look for shells and sand dollars on our early
morning walks. We also catch a lot of whiting, pompano, redfish and flounder for dinner right off the beach while the kids play in the sand, ride the waves, and the ladies soak up the sun.
Cleaning fish is a breeze at Lands End because we have a covered fish cleaning station with running water, electric and even our own fish hanging bragging board for awesome fish pics! The fishing is incredible!
If you can't tell, we are fishing enthusiasts! Just contact us for our favorite shore fishing hotspots and baits. FYI, you can catch baitfish right from the dock! Also we can get you connected to the best inshore, offshore, and even surf fishing guides! Bring your own boat of any size to explore the backwater lagoon. There is a public boat ramp on the lagoon and you can keep the boat parked right at the dock all week!
Incredible fishing is right out the back door. Bring your boat and keep it parked in the water at the back dock all week or trailer it and park it out front ready for Dixie Bar, Perdido Bay, or Fort Morgan at your fingertips.... The little lagoon has great flounder, speckle trout, and redfish fishing. Especially fish the lagoon lighted docks at night! Or on a calm day head out the lagoon pass to the entire Gulf of Mexico and its many oil rigs within eyesight of the pass!
