I was a CPA for 27 years and I retired to become a full-time airbnb host in 2017. Since then, Onyx Properties has grown from 2 vacation rentals to 27 separate rentable units. In 2022, my son James became the Manager. of the co. I am a very detailed person, as accountants usually are, which has helped me as a host. I believe that attention to detail can be the difference between an ok stay and a great stay! So please come and stay with us. : )

This charming house was built about 1940, and has a lot of character to show for it! The property has been featured on the Garden Tour by the Garden Club, twice! One year for the lushly planted backyard and outdoor living space. And another year for the unique use of hardscape and drought-tolerant plants to create the beautiful front yard landscape. The backyard features a hot tub, built-in fire pit, large waterfall and Koi pond with beautiful professionally done landscaping. The back yard is entirely patio surrounded by landscaping,. The covered patio area has a functional outdoor kitchen and an outdoor dining table which seats 6. The remainder of the patio is covered with 2 large umbrellas, so that nearly the entire backyard is shaded. This allows for use of the backyard throughout the summer. The large, crystal-clear water, hot tub has room for 6 adults. In the winter, after your warm soak in the hot tub, enjoy relaxing by the fire pit with your family and friends. It will keep you comfortably warm even on cold winter nights.

You will be less than one mile from downtown! As you might expect, the house is on a somewhat busy street. However, the house is set back from the street and most of the sounds you will hear will be the backyard waterfall and the birds chirping. Not only is the Historical Downtown District full of unique shops and all sorts of restaurants, but Visalia boasts THREE 5 star elegant restaurants that are a destination for people from throughout Central California.
