The Fig Tree Inn Bed and Breakfast located at 308 Trinity Street in Fairmont
was built in 1910 as a private residence by a prominent local landowner. The
residence remained in the family until the 1990’s at which time it was sold
twice over a short period of time. The house sat vacant for years and
deteriorated. In 2006 we purchased the neglected property and began
restoration. The property opened its doors as a bed and breakfast in March
of this year (2023). The B&B offers three themed bedrooms with breakfast
included, daily baked goods and refreshments, indoor sunroom and library,
relaxing porches and beautiful gardens, and is open year-round. Give them a
call at (570)789-0164 or (336)214-5054
