contents In this paper, we study the $D\to3$ limit of Gauss-Bonnet gravity with quintessential matter, obtaining exact solutions that extend the BTZ metric through higher-curvature terms and quintessence coupling. The solutions exhibit a single event horizon whose radius decreases with increasing quintessence parameter $ω_q$, while developing a curvature singularity at the origin for non-vanishing quintessence. The geodesic analysis reveals stable circular photon orbits exist exclusively for phantom-like quintessence ($ω_q < -1$). Thermodynamically, the system is stable, since the specific heat is positive, and with evaporation it evolves to stable remnants whose characteristic size decreases as $ω_q$ increases, with complete evaporation prevented by quintessence effects. Furthermore, we find that all physical quantities intrinsically depend on the parameter $α$ of the Gauss-Bonnet extension.These results demonstrate the profound influence of quintessential matter on both geometric and thermodynamic properties of (2+1)-dimensional black holes, offering new perspectives on gravitational theories in lower dimensions and black hole final states.
