salt_shaker..
Is yours a rental also? I have never been there, can you give me a heads up what to expect form the building area? Any tips would be appreciated.
I am compiling a list of all of the suggestions along with placing them on a map so I can have an idea which way to go! Its such a great help to get real advice and not marketing hype via advertising, sometimes the ones you don't hear about are the best!
My wife and I are looking forward to this trip very much. I'll try to get a report in when I get there!
Thanks to everyone who contributed! You guys are awsome!!

Forgot to mention if you into shallow water fishing in Kayaks, there are some great tidal flats and oyster bars to fish around on the westside of the Cresent Beach Bridge. If you bring a minimum of rods and reels I am sure you could rent a Kayak...

I used to live in Palm Coast and would frequent the Java Joint at least a couple times a week, I have never had a bad meal there, their breakfast and lunch are definately worth the trip. Also if you are in the Palm Coast area try the European Village, they have a great Pizza Place there called Mezzalunas and the atmosphere used to be pretty good there if you sat outside. There is also a pretty good seafood place there that is pretty good, called Barbara Jeans.

If you are going to try and use Matanzas Inlet, BE VERY VERY CAREFUL!!! It is full of sandbars and is a very tricky Inlet. I have a lot of time on the water and I will not run that inlet.
