A Beautiful Weekend
September 2024
From the time we arrived till the time we left, the experience was peaceful and serene. The entire environment was like living inside of a warm hug. We loved the campfires each night. The nearby hen house and the sweet neighborly cat also gave such a cozy touch to the feel of the place. We played our instruments together by the pond, which for us was both fun and romantic. Such opportunity was made possible through provision of this wonderful B&B that The Rodriguezes share. And we are very blessed and thankful. And we intend to come back!

An Awesome Getaway!!
October 2023
We had a fantastic time for my birthday at Minerva's Cottage. First of all it didn't take us long to get there, it is close to Austin, Bastrop, Smithville and other surrounding cities and towns. The place was immaculate, cozy, fully equipped with all you need to enjoy a great getaway. They even had a birthday cake with candles on the counter for me🎉 WOW! - and provided lots of snacks and drinks. Inviting tips were placed throughout the cottage to help you feel right at home. The cottage sits on 36 acres, it has a fishing pond, trails, and lots of space for a romantic stroll, and maybe even a small get together with friends and family. The owners were very friendly and helpful, they encouraged us to call them if we needed anything at all. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay there. I have put Minerva's Cottage on my happy place list. Teresa and Mauro are the best!! Bettie Bell

Excellent Stay
August 2023
Enjoyed the tiny home and property during our stay. Mauro and Teresa were very accommodating and hospitable. Property is located right off the highway and provided plenty of space for our family activities. The pond and open space was very relaxing. Will definitely be returning and suggest for a nice getaway from the noise of the city.
