The One Mississippi Town Everyone Must Visit This Fall

Sometimes, you find fun in the most unexpected places. And that’s exactly the case with Blue Mountain. A tiny town of less than 700, it’s the last place you’d expect to find one of the state’s best fall attractions. But that’s exactly what you’ll find there, which is why you’ve got to plan a visit this fall. Take a look:

We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/
Located in Tippah County, Blue Mountain is most known as the home of Blue Mountain College. But that’s not all the town has to offer.
