Found a cool little tidbit. The 1985 movie "Summer Rental" with John Candy was filmed in Pinellas County, Florida. Although they didn't film anything at Tiki Gardens, they used Trader Frank and Jo's house as a location for a few scenes (mostly seawall and beach stuff, not interior or exterior of the house - would have loved to see that).
The prop people even put a Tiki Gardens brochure on the dash of the car when the family arrived in town.
