Galveston's Midtown, primarily a residential neighborhood, has some interesting historic properties and cemeteries, including several historic African-American churches. It is also dotted with quaint corner stores and restaurants offering a variety of great food.

Sidewalks are limited in the neighborhood, although is still walking friendly. Many locals have bicycles as they are more economical and the island is small enough to get around quite easily and quickly.

You will also find golf carts are a popular (and fun!) mode of transportation.

Flawless experience

This was a rental experience that was flawless. This house deserves the top rating for every category. Our stay was with our 10yr old grandson who really got a kick out of having the golf cart to tool around town in. Comfy couches, quality mattresses, exceptionally supplied kitchen with a roomy table for meals or playing games, and spacious bathroom upstairs. This house is as pictured. Beware the stairs are steep but they had no baring on our stay other than to build up our calves! Tara is a gem. So helpful. Thank you for your help. Would rent again.

Weekend family gathering

Galveston is a geographically east meet point to meet with family. We scheduled a weekend trip and thoroughly enjoyed the home. Very clean, comfortable, great gathering areas inside and out. We like the mid-town location which is quiet and away from the busyness but close to everything on both the sea wall and strand sides of the island. We don’t have to fight for parking. We didn’t have any problems but the host was still reaching out to us to ensure our stay was seamless. We would highly recommend this location and would love to come back again.

Great space for family visit

My parents and my children and I stayed over Thanksgiving. There were spaces for adults to visit and the kids played downstairs, which was great. My parents commented that the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed. We would stay again. :)

About the host

Hosted by Tara Hannan

Host profile image
I moved from Canada to Texas in 2015 and love it here! I had rental properties in Canada and decided to venture into the short term rental market. There is no turning back! I absolutely love being a host!

Why they chose this property

This house, built in 1945, caught my immediate interest. With it's expansive lot and yard, with the gorgeous gazebo and large south facing deck, with the large bedrooms, beautiful fireplace and extra large bathroom - I thought it would make the perfect island getaway for groups of friends or family!
