Lakeshore is a remote beachfront area of Hancock County with little commercial development beyond Silver Slipper Casino and now possibly a second casino less than 2 miles away.
Cure Land Co. of Lakeshore filed an application March 1 with the Mississippi Gaming Commission for casino site approval, according to a legal advertisement in Wednesday’s Sea Coast Echo.
The casino would be built on a 98.5-acre property on South Beach Blvd. in the Clermont Harbor Subdivision, the advertisement says. That is east of Silver Slipper Casino and just west of Buccaneer State Park.
The developers anticipate the resort will have the minimum 40,000 square feet of casino space with 1,100 slot machines and 22 table games, along with a 300-room hotel, the legal ad says.
Site approval could be on the Gaming Commission agenda in the next couple of months, said executive director Allen Godfrey. It is the first step in casino development.
Cure Land Co. is one of the largest landowners in Hancock County. The Lakeshore company is building a boutique hotel in downtown Bay St. Louis — and also is landlord at Silver Slipper Casino, where the rent is based on a share of the casino revenue. A competing casino nearby could impact the amount of rent paid.

Adjusted EBITDA, or earnings before interest, taxes and other expenses was up 74 percent — “the highest ever fourth quarter for EBITDA of the property,” he said.
