I’m at the QH Congress and just saw a 3H straight load with a “plus 1” which would easily fit a golf cart with living quarters. I’ll check back tomorrow and see what brand. It was nice!

here is essentially what you are looking for without the living quarters

Here is a horse trailer that converted the back portion to a toy hauler (i.e. place for your golf cart), has living quarters and 2 stalls, though they may not be big enough for your horses.

What about a 4 horse head to head with an extra large dressing room that you convert yourself. You can also pay a conversion company. My suggestion would be to go look at the horse trailer conversion FB pages for ideas on living areas and cowboy showers, etc. I have a flushing camp toilet and pump sink fo rmy dressing room.
Stock show trailers are more likely to have a side unload ramp and a rear ramp. Though they will have cut gates instead of dividers.
Might be something to look into. People who show cattle send as much as people who show horses haha! There are nice used trailers out there
My photos won’t upload but here is the trailer on their website

it’s a 3 horse straight plus a box stall in front and living quarters with a slide
But no tack room or hay/shavings storage, right?
Where the plus 1 is it has a saddle rack and hooks for bridles. I think there is plenty of room for tack and accessories for the weekend in addition to a golf cart. Hay racks can be added to most trailers. This one just seemed to be the most what the OP was looking for without a huge renovation
Yeah, unfortunately she also said “used.”
I missed that detail oops. Sounds like a tough bill to fit used. Oh well

There used to be (and it did not sell for a while so it may still be available) in Texas that was an EBY that was a special build for a team and the cart/wagon that has LQ. It was a MONSTER but due to it being so specialized, it’s price dropped over time. I’ll see if I can find it.
This is kinda what I have custom made by Hawk back in 2007. I had them add two feet to the standard dressing room making a total of 6 feet on the floor plus the goose-neck part. I added a portable ac unit but have never gotten around to adding a bathroom or a cowboy shower, but don’t miss it since most of our overnight stays are only one or two nights and the places we go usually have facilities and we only do this maybe three or four times a year.
We love it but it is long. Something like 37ft total.

I am starting to shop.
Along the lines, would you guys run away from a 1999 Trail-et on the West Coast that fit my specs, almost?
In another thread, you will learn that I’m planning to move across the country and, while my 2H BP C&C has been great and does the job 99% of the time, there are a few reasons that I’m looking into replacing it. Finding what I want on the West Coast is hard.

I adore trailer shopping (ok, dreaming since there is no shot in heck I’m actually getting anything) BUT … none of the sales websites seem to filter by “straight” vs “slant” so it takes forever to sort through the used sites. So – to anyone who is an administrator of such a site, you might want to add that in to the pull style, LQ and state options which seem to be standard filters. That would allow OP to narrow a search right away.
In case anyone cares, my dream trailer is a 4-to-6 convertible head to head suitable for both long and wide horses - I spend a lot of time on trailer sales sites not finding anything vaguely like that unless custom ordered. Yeah. I’ll get on that right after winning powerball, lol. 
Do the horses ride totally SIDEWAYS on this trailer?
Can’t say I’ve seen that before!
I saw that one but it looks like the horses travel sideways, not even slanted, but perpendicular to the direction(s) of travel. What do y’all think of that?
I have seen that in an old Featherlight from the 1990s. The trick with that configuration is to get it 8’ wide (I believe that’s the maximum legal width). Wheel wells, then, are inside the horse compartment but not directly where any pair of legs would be.
A good horseman pro friend of mine had one of these and set it up to haul 5 horses-- three narrower ones in the back facing forward and two up front facing backward. I could be wrong, but I got the sense that the horses found security riding in the head-to-head; like their own little herd with hay nets.
Well, first of all, you’d be hard pressed to squeeze my 17.2 hand warmblood in a perpendicular space like that. But even if you could fold him up and squeeze him in, I still think a horse can brace themselves and steady themselves better hauling forwards or backwards. So, I’ve never been a big fan of slants and the perpendicular arrangement looks even worse to me.
