On the eastern edge of Galveston Island, Lake Madeline sits between 81st and 69th Streets along the Seawall.

The area lends itself to an island lifestyle with plenty of activities nearby. The annual Dickens on the Strand festival celebrates Galveston's Victorian beginnings, and many learn of the islands wonders from that venue. The Galveston Art League lists the area's art workshops and events.
