DeSoto is so fascinating and fun-filled that your most memorable moments begin the moment you arrive. Historical attractions, outdoor recreation, sports, music—so much to see, so much to do, so much to enjoy. You choose the pace; we’ll supply the rhythm. This is the experience you dream of: authentic Southern charm and hospitality mere minutes from every sophisticated entertainment imaginable. We invite you to indulge in the best of three worlds, with home-town pleasures sandwiched between the glittering shows and casinos of Tunica and the world-famous music and museums of Memphis.
DeSoto County adds so much more to your stay: 72 holes of championship golf, spectacular sailing and fishing at Arkabutla Lake, prime antique shopping, new mall shopping, historic homes, picture-perfect town squares and one of the premier youth sports complexes in the country. Add an eventful calendar of local festivals and the exciting professional sport season of the RiverKings hockey team, and you have a host of reasons for weekend getaways and extended stays.
We keep you comfortable with dozens of well-known hotels and motels, or you can indulge yourself with the charms of our acclaimed bed-and-breakfast. No matter where you stay, delicious food is right around the corner, from Southern-style specialties to the finest American continental cooking to a variety of ethnic cuisines.
Southaven is where small-town charm and Southern hospitality meet modern convenience. From our nationally renowned Snowden Grove Park to major employers, retailers, restaurants, and tourism attractions such as Graceland, Tunica Casinos and the back-to-back CHL Championship RiverKings, Southaven is not just located at the “top of Mississippi," we are the tops in Mississippi.
Barbecue, baseball and blues—we’re famous for it all! Southaven’s annual Springfest is the largest barbecue contest in Mississippi. We’re also home to the world-famous Interstate Bar-B-Q whose fare has been featured in national publications, and we have the largest selection of restaurants in north Mississippi. Every summer more than 2,000 youth baseball teams come to Snowden Grove Park for tournament season, including the Dizzy Dean World Series. Autozone Park in Memphis hosts the Redbirds and is one of the most beautiful, family-friendly stadiums in the nation. We’re just minutes from the blues clubs of Beale Street and Elvis Presley’s Graceland, and we’re at the gateway to the Mississippi Delta and the famous Hwy. 61 Blues Trail.
