Neighborhood

Located about three miles south of Downtown Galveston and just minutes away from the beach, Lasker Park offers resort-style living along the Gulf of Mexico. Whether you're born on the island or an islander by choice, you'll fall in love with the unique culture and strong sense of community. When locals aren’t enjoying the water, you’ll find them enjoying a meal at one of the city’s world-class restaurants serving everything from Tex-Mex to fresh seafood. Locals also spend leisure time at waterfront parks like Fort Crockett Park and Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier, an old-school, a family-friendly amusement park with casual beach eats and carnival games. Despite having abundant amenities close to home, Lasker Park rentals are surprisingly affordable ranging from economical modern apartments to chic beach houses. And just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, Downtown Houston is only an hour away.
