About this property

Onyx & Oak - Hot Tub & Backyard Oasis, East Austin

Black board-and-batten outside. Sun-washed oak and quiet Scandinavian calm within. Out back, a yard that never sits still.

This Govalle retreat sleeps 8 across two king suites (one with a kitchenette) and a twin room, each with its own bath. Step inside and the noise drops — light wood cabinetry, a marble-look island, and a plush sectional set a hushed, warm tone throughout. Then step outside, where the yard picks up where the house left off.

•Private hot tub
• Fire pit with seating
• Hammock strung between the trees
• Bocce, cornhole, life-size checkers, and Connect 4
• Pergola-covered dining table, seats 10
• Front porch swing

A short walk from Govalle's best coffee and tacos, and minutes from downtown Austin.

Onyx outside. Oak within.

Why they chose this property

Onyx & Oak sits in Govalle, one of East Austin's quieter, still-evolving pockets, tucked among mature oak trees. It's close enough to the action to feel connected, far enough removed to feel like a retreat.

Walk or bike to some of East Austin's best coffee shops, taco trailers, and neighborhood bars along Springdale and Airport. The Boggy Creek Greenbelt and Govalle Park are minutes away for a morning run or an afternoon outside. Downtown Austin, the East 6th Street bar scene, and Lady Bird Lake are all a quick rideshare away - close enough for a night out, far enough that you'll sleep well when you get back.

Govalle strikes a balance a lot of East Austin has lost: still a little rough around the edges, still full of character, and increasingly home to some of the neighborhood's best new food and drink.

What makes this property unique

Most East Austin rentals lean one of two ways — sleek and minimal, or loud and themed. Onyx & Oak does both at once. The house itself is quiet: black board-and-batten on the outside, sun-washed oak and calm Scandinavian lines on the inside. It's the kind of interior that lets you actually relax.

Then you step into the backyard, and the personality shows up. A private hot tub. A fire pit. A hammock strung between two old shade trees. And a dedicated game lawn stocked with bocce, cornhole, life-size checkers, and Connect 4 — the kind of setup that turns a quiet weekend into a full-blown game night without anyone having to leave the yard.

It's rare to find a property that's this restrained inside and this loaded outside. Onyx & Oak is built for groups who want a peaceful place to land and an endless list of reasons to stay outside once they're there.
