Overall Review of Sunshine Mobile Home Park
caveat17 reviews mention this
Lot rent feels consistently high
Many residents and prospective buyers say lot rent runs much higher than expected.
A recurring theme in the reviews is that lot rent feels overpriced, with multiple people describing repeated rent increases and residents being pushed out due to fixed incomes. Several reviews also criticize how the rent compares to other nearby options in Pinellas County. Even when reviews are more positive about the park itself, some still flag lot rent as a concern for affordability.

There are also complaints about repairs not being addressed, including reports of sinkholes and other issues that residents say were not fixed. A smaller number of reviews say the park is clean and well maintained, but the negative maintenance comments show up often enough to be a clear concern.
