Galveston is home to 60 buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places and nowadays Galveston is a hub of tourism for Texas. With beaches, amusement parks and public gardens Galveston is a great place for a vacation. Head to Galveston and experience a Texan coastal vacation by booking one of these lovely vacation rentals.
