About this property
10BR/10BA HeatedPool HotTub FirePit Easy Beach Access Basket/Pickle/VolleyBall
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!
Moving on to other outdoor recreation, Ike's beach rental service is the ultimate neighbor for maximizing fun and convenience on your beach vacation! Rent some of their paddle boards, kayaks or jet skis for some awesome family fun and adventure in the Little Lagoon! Or for even more adventure they offer parasailing, Segway tours, sand bikes and much more!
No day is complete without a quick hike over to Pier 33 for some treats with the kids. Established in 1978, Pier 33 is Gulf Shores oldest grocery store. They are located just 3 doors down from Lands End and carry a full line of grocery items, gifts, beach accessories, souvenirs, candy, snacks, bait & tackle, milk shakes, Krispy Kreme donuts, a nice upstairs coffee shop, and much more!
Our favorite Restaraunt in the entire area is Bahama Bobs! They are a small local joint nestled right on the beach and famous for great seafood poboys and burgers. It's just 1/4 mile walk and you can access from the street or the beach! For a great lunch at a tremendous value, head over to King Neptunes.
Gulf Coast Zoo is the "little zoo that could"... Our kids love visiting the zoo just 1.75 miles from Lands End! Lots of animals to interact with and feed!
The world famous Gulf Shores Hangout, Souvenir City, and Public Beach is just 3/4 of a mile from Lands End. Lots of activities going on there pretty much all summer long!
The city of Gulf Shores Bodenhamer family recreation center has an awesome pool, fitness center, gym, racquetball, game room and much more! They have a weekly family membership rate that is dynamite for active families on vacation!
Gulf Shores also has an amazing trail system for biking and hiking and they even have free bike rentals for them as well! Also new to the area is world class zip lines, the OWA theme park, and the sports complex. Those recreation activities are in addition to the all time family favorite activities of the area like the Tanger Outlet center, the Wharf, the Hangout, Lulu's, the State Pier, and of course the world famous White Sandy Beaches!
Lands End is the winter vacation getaway for the whole Herman clan- all 34 of us! We love to share this property with other like minded adventurous families and would love to see your vacation photos and stories.
From the moment you arrive at Lands End till you pick up your last souvenir heading north up Highway 59, we would like to make sure your family has an unforgettable vacation experience together! Any questions you have at anytime about anything don't hesitate to reach out!

About the host
Hosted by Justin Herman
We are the Herman Family from Peoria, IL- All 34 of us! We own and operate several family businesses in the Central Illinois Area. Noah Herman Sons Builders, Herman Brothers Lake and Land Management, The Giant Goose Ranch, and we host the TV show Lake Life on DIY Network. We work hard all year long and we enjoy spending as much time in Gulf Shores each fall and winter as possible! In everything we do our mission is to serve Christ by helping families spend quality time together in the great outdoors! These are our homes away from home and we look forward to sharing them with you and your family!
Why they chose this property
Our parents parents have been coming down to Gulf Shores area each year for over 50 years, so all of us have grown up with Gulf Shores in our blood so to speak... Its super exciting to watch our kids falling in love with our annual Gulf Shores adventures as well!
One day while walking along the beach on vacation, Beth and Greg (our parents) saw a for sale sign go up at Lands End... Turns out the owner at the time wanted to sell pretty quick and mom n dad just happened to be in the right place at the right time. They went home that week owners of their very own Gulf Shores Vacation Property! We are new to VRBO, but excited about the upcoming opportunities.

What makes this property unique
The large property gives us amazing opportunity to continue to create fun spaces inside and out. Not only is our family large, but we usually travel in packs. The opportunity to all hang out together inside and out is what truly sets this property apart from the rest. Having everything Gulf Shores has to offer at our fingertips but yet plenty of space to hangout in our own private beach oasis is the best of both worlds!
