Wonderful location in Trinity

Our group had a lovely stay. The location is perfect, with beautiful views. The layout of the home was perfect to accommodate our group of three families traveling with small children, as it had individual space for everyone. We would definitely stay again if in the area.

Perfect location. You get all the feel of historic Trinity (house built in 1883) but with a beautiful new kitchen/ living room/ eating area of modern day functionality. When going back to Trinity, we'll be checking if Garland House is available first thing.
