Place needs to be updated
Too many things that need to be updated or fixed. the driveway, items in front should be removed, you can not get into the lane of traffic without backing into traffic.

I had to by 5 gals of water and bag of Ice. Bathing , washing hair , skin felt yucky Was going go to Hotel daily to be able get a clean shower. the trail they show you to get to the beach is in the backyard neighbor house. one bathroom had towel& soap container mounted oh top of shower in one bath ,un useable for me no grab bar . Bathroom #2 stand up shower rust around shower wall . 3 windows didn't shut all way. Kitchen blinds 1 out of three shut 2 no way to shut.

Great place
The house was as described. Perfect location to the beach. We stayed in October and the beach was not crowded. The driveway was hard to get in and out of especially with a larger car. Will stay again!

Beach bungalow
We loved the beach bungalow located in Indian Shores. Great location. The beach was never crowded and the beach chairs and umbrellas were great! I personally love the Old Florida vibes of the house. There are a few things that need attention including door knobs that fell off and burnt out lightbulbs but overall very minor things. My one complaint is the parking. We had two larger vehicles which made parking a nightmare but we made a work. Thank you to the hosts for sharing your house with us!
